‘Air Force Drops

Hushed Research
At Minnesota U.

Copyright, 1967, The Collegiate Press Service

MINNEAPOLIS—The Air Force has cancelled a research project
at the University of Minnesota which was so secret that even the
university’s newly selected president didn't know what it was.

When the president, Dr.
Malcolm Moos, found out about
the project, he objected strongly
and said he didn't want the uni-
versity involved in secret gov-
ernment research.

But the Air Force said it
cancelled renewal of the two-
year $200,000 contract because
of “lack of funds," not Dr.
Moos’ objections. The lack of
funds was supposedly caused by
the Vietnam war.

The Minnesota Daily has
learned that the contract in-
volved the use of humans as
subjects and that the campus
police were involved.

The contract with the uni-
versity was 70 percent subcon-
tracted to North S Research
and Development,” nstitute in
Minneapolis. The majority of
North Star's work has some
secrecy attached to it, accord-
ing to the Minnesota Daily

Project Confirmed

Officials from North Star
Institute, the university, and the
U.S. government Defense Con-
tract Administration Service
have confirmed the existence of
the project but have no corn-
ment on specifies.

At a meeting on Sept. 15 the
university's Board of Regents
voted unanimously, over Dr.
Moos' objections, to renew the
classified psychological testing
program for two years.

The regents originally ap-
proved the secret contract at
their Jan. 14, 1966, meeting
without any publicity. The con-
tract began in March of 1966.
Laurence Lunden, Minnesota
business affairs vice president,
is the highest-ranking univer-
sity ofiicial who knows details
of the secret contract, since
Moos has not yet been cleared
to handle secret information. He
became university president
Sept. 1.

Dr. Lunden said the. project
“borders on the health calms"
and was ori lly approv Oy
Moos' prefM
Meredith Wilson. Dr. Lundgri
said the project is “very, very
imporuu to a defense effort"
and both the government and

 

“the personnel working on the

project wanted it continued.

At the Sept. 15 regents meet-
ing, Dr. Lunden asked the
board to “act on faith alone"
and renew the contract for two
years.

Moos ‘Disturbed'

His recommendation was ac-
cepted without opposition, ex-
cept from Dr. Moos. Dr. Moos
said he was “disturbed" about
secret research at universities
and wanted “the minutes of this
meeting to reflect my concern.”

Dr. Moos said, “Basically, I
am opposed to such research
because it tends to guide the
direction of free inquiry" within
the academic community and
concems an area in which “y0u
know so little and have so little
mntrol."

Dr. Moos agreed that the
government has to conduct
military research, but said it
should be done in “think tanks"
or by private industry. Dr. Moos

said he is “on the side of the
angels" on the issue and that
his position as president definite-
ly will be to discourage such
projects.

Many universities, including
Harvard, “have met the ques-
tion head on” and refuse to ac-
cept any secret work, Dr. Moos
said.

Let The Communists HaveSouth Vietnam

 

U.S. Policies Weakened

By Viet Involvement

By DANNY WALLS
China-watcher Dick Wilson
unemotionally and methodically
discounted U.S- policy in'Viet-
nam Monday night declaringthat
he ”would not mind a commu-
nist take-over of South Vietnam. "

Mr. Wilson, free lance writer
and author of ”Anatomy of Chi-
na," continued by saying ”there
is no sufficient danger to anybody
in letting the Communists take
over Vietnam because they are
the only viable political body
in the country."

He further stated that “com-
rnunism is a western invention
based on science and reason.
He also said the “tide of his-
tory has turned against commu-
nism because intelligent people
can see the inadequaces of it.

”Communism," he said, “can
be seen as an error of the intel-
lect and not a moral evil.’

Communist Stronghold
Mr. Wilson said that Ameri-
can policy in Asia is in two
parts; 1) to prevent the spread
of communism in Asia, and 2)
to prevent the expansion of Com-
minist China.

He said that Vietnam is the
only other country in Asia besides

China where communism is the

best organized and strongest po-
litical force in the nation. He said
that if the Americans left tomor—
row the South Vietnamese gov-
ernment would topple.

”There are no Chinese corn-
bat troops in Vietnam" he con-
tinued, ”they're not puppets of
Peking. Probably a united com—
munist Vietnam would be better
prepared to keep the Chinese out
that would be a weak democratic
one.

Policies Are kaened

Mr. Wilson said he hoped
for a negotiated peace in Viet-
nam based on a U.S. ceasebomb—
ing. U.S. policies are sound and
well motivated, but are weakened
by being tested in Vietnam," he
said.

”The greatest need in U.S.
policy is the courage and in—
sight to accept the communist
regime in China." He said the
best way to beat communism is
to let it decay from inside.

He also said that he wished
U.S. policy would become more
revolutionary in supporting revol—
utions if they deserve it, and not
condemn them all as Communist
inspired.

State Council
Moves Ahead
On Building

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)—
The Council of State govem-
ments Monday authorized Gov.
Edward T. Breathitt to prooeed
with construction of the council’s
new national headquarters on
Spindletop Farm at Lexington.

The council, 3 joint agency
created by the 50 states to im-
prove legislative, administrative
and judicial practices of state
government, is moving to Lex-
ington from Chicago.

Mr. Breathitt said the state
will advertise for bids on the
building by Nov. 1, and constmc-
tion should get under way in early
December.

Ratification Final Movc

Ratification of a lease and
construction plans by the coun-
Ci] 5 executive committee wasthe.
final step in the move.

To lure the headquarters to
Kentucky the state has agreed to
finance construction of the head-
quarters building and lease 40
acres of the University property
to the council for 99 years.

The group, which operates on
a budget of about $750,000 per
year, will bring about 50 em-
ployes with it.

Mr. Breathitt said the move
is a significant step forward for
the state and said the transfer
of the headquarters means that
”Kentucky will become the cap-
ital of state government."

Close Cooperation

Mr. Breathitt mentioned four
major advances:

UK will be provided with an
opportunity to work in close co-
operation with the council, and
the interchaerge of professional
views and s ices will enhance
the programs of the Universityin
business, research, government
research and law.

The General Assembly and
the Legislative Research Commis-
sion will have immediate access
to expert staff and governmental
library material.

All other agencies of state
and local govemments will be
similarly benefited by the more
imity of the council's staff re»
sources and facilities.

Location of the headquarters
of the council near Spindletoo Re
search, Inc., will foster the tur-
ther development of this institute.

The total eventually could soar much higher if a

college income to the government for as long as 30
years to repay the loan.

But the four established college aid programs under

All have been set up within the past 10 years—since
the Soviets first beat the United States into outer space
-and all are under direct state or college control or
both. Requirements therefore vary considerably from
state to state and campus to campus, but more than
1,700 colleges and universities in all 50 states and in
U.S. territories are participating in one or more of the

programs.

Law, Order Must Prevail

jobs, against a background of
law and order, is the way to
prevent riots, Katherine Peden
told about 60 people Monday
night in the second speech of
the YMCA Action Forum Series.

Miss Peden, Commerce Com-
missioner of Kentucky, was re-
cently appointed one of 11
citizens on President Johnson's
National Commission on Civil
Disorder.

The commission is investigat-
ing the causes of recent city
riots and will propose measures
to prevent future riots.

The first priority in meeting
the challenge for’ solving the
domestic crises of rioting and

poverty is that respect for law

and order must prevail in the
nation, she said. "As long as
there is rioting, we'll never have
the opportunity of getting to
the causes,” 3 said.

The causes of rioting, she
emphasized, are lack of jobs,
lack of housing and the dissolu-
tion of the guiding family unit.

There must be definite hous-
ing for people displaced from
ghettos by urban renewal,
“which has sometimes been
urban destruction," she said. It
would be better to upgrade
existing housing than to dis-
place families to nowhere, she
said.

Miss Peden spoke at the
Student Center.

Duckworth,Wylie

Win In Primaries

City Commissioner Charles
Wylie and former city patrol-
man Donald Duckworth have
won the right to compete for
the mayor's seat in the Nov. 7
city election.

Mr. Wylie also carried his
team of four candidates for
commissioners jobs to victory
in the non-partisan primary
which stirred little interest with
voters.

The four-man ticket headed
by Commissioner Tom Under-
wood also was victorious. Mr.
Underwood did not support a
candidate for mayor.

Running with Underwood
were Dr. Al Chrouser, a dentist,
and engineers'Tiay Boggs and
Frank McKinley.

' Running with Mr. Wylie were
incumbent Commissioners Harry
Sykes and Fred Keller, Mayor
Fred Fugazzi, and businessman
Joe Graves.

A breakdown of the votes
showed that Mr. Duckworth re-
ceived 1,722 votes while Mr.
Wylie received 4,949.

Mr. Sykes received 3,922
votes, Mr. Graves, 3,581, Mr.
Fugazzi, 3,538, and Mr. Keller,
3,288.

On the Underwood ticket,
Mr. Underwood received 3,480
votes, Dr. Chrouser, 2,395, Mr.
Boggs, 2,101, and Mr. Mc-
Kinley, 1,945.

The six independents de~
feated in the election were can-
didate for mayor Walter Stone
with 308 votes, and commis-
sioner candidates David Van
Horn, Alfred Ruh, Leonard Ray,
Carl Moses, and Joe Mont-

gamery.

Negotiation Now obtained
170 signatures during its two
days of solicitation in the Stu-
dent Center last' week, Don
Pratt says.

Pratt, acting chairman of
Citizens for Peace in Vietnam,
said these signatures were in
addition to the 300—400 already
received by the group during
the summer months and would
be added to the statewide total
of over 3,000.

Pratt was disappointed with
the response. “Students were
apathetic or just unwilling to
put their names on the line,"
he said. Several students cited
possible future employment with
state or federal government as
their deterrent to signing.

Although faculty tum-out was
“poor," Pratt said that political
action on the campus should be
more the concern of students
than of faculty.

Negotiation Now soon will be
sponsoring an ad in The Kernel
to which 50 faculty already
have signed their names. Pratt
hopes to obtain 25-50 more.

That Teinercent Discourit At Pittsburgh
Applies Only To Required Hard-Cover Texts

Would a 10 percent discount
in hard~cover required texts be’a
partial ' victory at the University?

A partial victory was the head-
line over the lead editorial in The
Pitt News, student newspaper at
I the University of Pittsburgh quoted
portions of which are excerpted
below. .

' ”The decision issued by Chan-
cellor 'We'sley' W. Posvar to ini-
tiate this January a 10 percent
-~——-— , . ..' ’ r" en” I

 

 

        

   

reduction on required hard-cover
textbooks is a step in the right
direction. It reinforces what The
Pitt News has long advocated: our
Book Center has a definite obliga-
tion to serve our student body.

“However, we are not entirely
satisfied with the decision reached
by the Chancellor, for we had hoped
that the 10 percent discount would
include all textbooks, and, more
importantly, would be initiatedbe—
fore the fall term. We are not in
accord with this delay and must
state that we believe it could have
been feasible to enact this discount
in time for students to benefit
during the entire year.

“A compromise was reached,
though, and it does serve to il-
lustrate what can be done when
students, faculty members, and ad-
ministrators work together to rec-
tify an unfair policy.

“Our ‘victory' may appear mi-
nor to some, but we regard it as a
beginning. Students did particpate
on the policy-making committee
and their complaints were heard.
Furthermore, action was taken as
a result of the committee’s recom-
mendations, a perfect illustration
that when students engage in a
concentrated effort, there is hope
for some success."

Clipped editorials such as this
one appear on the Kernel’s editor-
ial page from time to time to il-
lustrate the universality of prob-
lems students face in their pursuit
of an education.

As the Pitt editorial indicates,
the students there are not content
with a 10 percent discount on all
required texts. They are after a
10 percent discount across the
board, and apparently there are

students at the University of Pitts- »

burgh with the gumption to sit
down with the faculty, staff, and
administration and pursue their
goal.

The more prevalent attitude
among University ‘students unfortu-
nately seems one of pessimism.
Lip service has been given to many
reforms ofthe University Bookstore,
but nothing has been done.

This example at the University
of Pittsburgh should serve to indi-
cate what might be accomplished
here, if someone from the student
body will take the initiative.

Letters To The Editor:

 

Lebanese Student Attacks U .5.
Policy In Arab-Israel Conflict

To The Editor Of The Kernel:

Mr. Cecil Crook, oh! I am sorry; please
forgive me, it should be Mr. Cecil Cook.
Buy why should [correct Mr. Book's name
when he himself does not think it is
worthwhile correcting a misspelled name.
You see, Mr. Shook accused me of rais-
ing an unnecessary argument about my
misspelled name.

Apparently Mr. Cook has not studied
his history well enough. If he is a history
student, I advise him to take a course in
Middle East history; if he is not, per-
haps I should advise him to shift to his-
tory or at least read the references men-
tioned at the end of this letter.

The policy of the US. and its being
one sided is crystal clear apparent (sic)
from the fact that the US. government
did not utter one word of indignation
against the Israeli bombing of the US.
ship, Liberty, during the six—day war in
the Middle East. A most unfortunate ac-
cident which caused the deathof34Ameri-
cans, if We do not count the 75 wounded
who were also Americans.

As to what the Arabs did in Palestine
in the past centuries, I urge Mr.” Hook
to acquaint himself with the fact that
Palestine was under the Ottoman rule from
the fifteenth century till the twentieth
century and then it was placed under the
British mandate until 1948 when it was
transformed into a racist state by the
well organized Zionist movement and with
the help of the Western World, including
Russia.

I wonder whether Mr. Cook agrees
with me that it is not just to kick people
out of their land and transform them into
refugees in order to ease the conscience
of the Westem World from the string of
antisemitism.

Finally, I am ready to invite Mr.
look to my house, offer him an American
hamburger and a genuine Diet~rite Coke
and discuss or enlighten him on some
topics. Meanwhile may I suggest acouple
of outside readings for Mr. Sook, “What
Price Israel" and ”The Other Side of the
Coin" by Alfred Lilienthal. It might also
be helpful to read the September filth

issue of National Review to find Out what
I meant by one sided U.S.A.

Allow me to ask a final question: Is
Cecil a boy's or a girl's name?

The facts in the preceding letter are
erroneous in regard to press coverage of
the torpedoing of U.S. ship Liba'ty. The
item was front page news in the nation's
major daily newspapers and it was pre—
sented along with accounts of diplomatic
protest and responses between the parties
involved. —-The Editor.

Luckens Called Irrational

Thought for the day:

How can a person (D. Luckens) con-
demn a group, in toto and without evi-
dence (white liberals, cf. The Kernel,
Sept. 20, editorial page), when the very
issue he espouses (Negro freedom) has
its basis in the spuriousness of the con-
demnation of the Negro in toto; can he
be taken seriously as a rational or logical
thinker?

Composition Defended

I suggest that you re-examine your
somewhat mistaken notion of a ”uni-
versity" (you know, as the term appears
in The University of Kentucky).

Unfortunately your implied thesis of
the editorial “Composition Flunks" —that
writing clear, clean, little sentences is
the ultimate in the student's literary ex—
perience at a ”university" —is antithetical
to the very concept of the university as
a center of what Newman terms “intel—
lectual culture."

This ain't a trade school, baby: try
doing your homework next time.
