Will Lower Tensions While the government would have welcomed more specific in formation on the promised troop pull-out, administration officials re garded the promise as a step that would lower some of the tension in the Caribbean as far as it went. Congressional reaction was cau tious, for the most part. The con sensus seemed to be that removal of any troops was a step forward but that all should be removed. One senator said there was some elaboration on the "several thou sand" phrase at the White House meeting, but he declined to am plify. Sen. John C. Stennis, D-Miss., chairman of the Senate Prepared ness Subcommittee, called the So-, viet statement ''highly significant" and a "good start." But he said he was interested in the kind of troops being withdrawn. Senate GOP Leader Everett M. Dirksen, 111., said: "What the Dormitory : Spotlight: Manly Active dorms seem to have at least one thing in common full participation of residents. A typ ical active dorm is Manly, and the unity of its members certain ly is a result of their organiza tion. Led by intramural manager Carl Swann, Manly is first in in tramurals. Ninth last year, the dorm's teams swept the football and volleyball crowns and pres ently hold a 'wide lead in the standings. The increased social fee has made an expanded social pro gram possible, and a beer and pizza party was held before Christmas. The success of last year's beach party has resulted in an annual affair, and it is to be held in late April. Manly was the only dorm to have such a party last year, according to dorm president John Schultz. According to editor Murray Van Lear, the dorm paper was published three times last semes ter, and resident will have a page in Yack. The only complaint by the res idents is that there is not suf ficient space in the dorm for social activities. The fact that there will probably be three men per room next year seems to rule out expansion of the social room.

He said: "It's a continuation of a start which has already been made in the withdrawal of 4,500 to 5,000 from an intelligence estimate of sand. There should not be one So- but he added: "I do not feel that we can afford to let this matter drop or be complacent about it until all the Russian troops and technicians manning weapons are removed from Cuba." Sen. Leverett Saltonstall, R- Mass., top Republican member of the Armed Services Committee, said he thought the promised re moval would be "received with a great deal of relief by the Ameri can people." He hoped it would be a start toward complete with drawal. Govrrnment Will Wait The government was expected to await carrying out of the promise before deciding whether to prod Moscow any further.

Thomas, a six-time presidential candidate on the Socialist Party ticket, pleaded with his audience of 500 people to begin to think about the consequences of our al most complete, dependency upon . a militaristic economy. He said that our only hope lies in doing what is extraordinarily difficult that of changing over to an economy in which we can conquer poverty and Honor Council Chairman Resigns Walter Dellinger yesterday "re gretfully" announced his resigna tion, effective Thursday, as chair man of the Men's Honor Council The Council will meet tomorrow night to select a new chairman who will serve until the new Coun cil is formed after the campus elections of 'March 26. Dellinger stated that, he would remain on the council but felt that it was necessary to "step down early" as chairman in order to complete his honors thesis in Political Science. He also said that he could have remained as chair man but his duties as a dorm ad viser and the completion of his thesis would make it impossible for him to preside over the Men's Council hearings each Thursday until the spring elections. Dellinger said that, "This is the time when the Council needs con tinuous leadership in order to go into the campus living units and communicate to the faculty and the student body the improve ments made in the Honor Sys tem." He added that he felt that there are "younger members of the council who are both able and willing to take charge in do ing this job in what he feels is a critical month." Dellinger, a senior from Charl otte, has served on the Council for four years while attending the University on a General Motors Scholarship. He is also a member of the Golden Fleece, the Order of the Grail and the Old Well. To Meet current editor Louis Legum be fore the interview date.

Plans for speaking tcurs will be discussed. ion V- 21 educate the people of our country as well as those of the rest of the world. Thomas cited the failure of Am erican public opinion to come forth with any suggestions and "definite statements about ending this arms race we are in, as the major cause of our dangerous position. He said that . we can not afford to spend 10 of our total national product on arms and still be able to hope to conquer illiteracy, end disease and . expand education". Thomas noted that he was sure that the Health, Education and Welfare bud get would be cut before anyone even thought of reducing defense appropriations. . The 79-year-old veteran politici an also stated that not only is our economy in danger, but also that our democratic system is a very touchy position. When democracy becomes degraded, by this search for security, it is subordinate to politics instead of liberty. "Free dom must win out over the com pulsion of the government to build a deferent force," he said. He went on to say that the draft is inevi table as long as civil liberties are second to the wishes of the Su preme Court. Thomas noted that universities are also economically involved in the arms race in a direct manner. They rely upon research grants for the prime safety of our coun try. Thus, he added a new game is created in which the arms race opposes the seduction of colleges and education. Unfortunately, the educational institutions are not making the students think enough about the price we are paying as becomes so affected by the Gar rison State and thus we are losing this game. In answer to many of the ques-j tions which followed the talk, he replied if you have any questions concerning the current platform of the Socialist Party in the U. S., the party has an office on Broad way in New York City and the platform could be obtained there.

The East German communica tions ministry claimed the : ice breaker Einheit was the target ol shots as it passed under a West Berlin bridge Monday on route from one stretch of border river to another.

President Kennedy will present to Congress at noon Thursday his proposal to set up a health care plan for the aged under Social Security. The legislation introduced Tues day by five Republican senators from the liberal wing of the party also would finance medicare un der the Social Security System. GOP Whip Thomas H. Kuchel, Calif., and Sens. Clifford P. Case, R-N.J., John Sherman Cooper, Ky., and Kenneth B. Keating and Jacob K. Javits, N. Y., cosponsored the bill. 'We are not closing our minds to other methods under Social Se curity," they said in a joint state ment. "We will examine carefully all developments in this field and will be ready to cooperate with Sen. Clinton P. Anderson, D-N. M., as we did last year in working for the passage of a law whicfl meets the pressing health needs of our aging citizens The bill is far from a consensus proposal by Republicans. Many other GOP senators have sharply attacked the Social Security fi- nancing form in the past and are not believed to have mellowed much, if any, in their opposition. The GOP liberal bill differs from last year's administration propos al in that it would: Include an estimated million persons over 65 who are not cov ered by Social Security; provide an option under which benefici aries would have a choice of re ceiving hospital benefit programs through private plans rather than through the government; allow Drivate organizations and states to help administer the program; and provide for a separate health insurance trust fund.

Betancourt Is Welcomed By Kennedy WASHINGTON (UPI) President Kennedy warmly welcomed Presi dent Romulo Betancourt of Vene zuela to the United States Tuesday as the "number one enemy" of Communism in Latin America and the best U. S. argument for the Alliance for Progress program. Betancourt's arrival for a two-day official visit was marred only by a cold, soaking drizzle mixed with snow and a Republican congress man's criticism of a "foreign po litician who comes here seeking our money, and calling himself an- ti-Communist." Betancourt told Kennedy in a welcoming ceremony at the White House that he came not to seek aid but as a "friend and an ally" of the United States. Kennedy hailed the Venezuelan leader's four-year fight for peace ful political and economic revolu tion as a shining example of what we wish for our own country and our sister republics in Latin Am erica Parade Postponed Washington s mixture of snow and rain forced postponement of Kennedy's plans to take Betan court, his wife and daughter on a seven-block parade through down town Washington. Instead, the two first families drove directly from the White House across Pennsyl vania Avenue to Blair House, the presidential guest house, in plas tic domed "bubbletop" limousines.
