Germany Lists Terms For Joining Defense Washington—U.P.West Germany has secretly given the western powers a preview of its conditions for joining the European Defense System, informed sources reported today. The German views are said to have been circulated here and in other allied capitals within the last few days, in preparation for the nine-power conference on Germany opening in London Tuesday. Diplomats are understood to be hopeful that the conditions will help speed a solution to the German rearmament problem at London, and a meeting of the 14 North Atlantic Treaty nations next month. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles returned to Washington last night to prepare for his flight to London tomorrow. He is still bitter about the French defeat of the European Defense Community plan which provided for controlled German arms partnership with the West.

The state department refused comment on the receipt of the German rearmament views. But diplomats said they generally parallel the EDC plan with "some appropriate modifications." YOUR EYES As understood here, the Germans would agree to an armed force of 12 divisions of troops and supporting forces—a figure set in the EDC plan. These forces would be "integrated" into the command structure of allied powers, but details on this feature were said to be skimpy. should be examined today! Any lens or prescription duplicated.

Los Angeles —(U.P.)— President Eisenhower says he wants a Republican victory in the coming congressional elections to save the government from "deterioration, stagnation, and inaction." President Fears Results of Republican Loss Speaking before 18,000 party workers in the Hollywood bowl last night, Mr. Eisenhower said a Democratic congress and a Republican White House would result in an "endless round of political maneuverings." He urged the GOP campaigners to "go to work" to guarantee the administration a friendly congress. The President was scheduled to speak briefly today before the American Federation of Labor convention—an admittedly hostile audience. The committee's administration for "many crimes of omission and commission." In a fighting mood, the President sought to whip up enthusiasm for the Republican cause.. among the party faithful. Mr. Eisenhower denounced anti-administration "peddlers" of "false fears" and predicted the Republicans will "ride forward over their gloom-filled talks, and their cynical doubt." "We are determined to fulfill every commitment that we have made to the American people," he said. "For a political party to be held clearly accountable to the people for its political philosophy to guide the course for our government, it is essential that the party control both the executive and the legislative branches of the government." "On the other hand, when the congress is controlled by one political party and the executive branch by the other, politics in Washington has a field day. "The conduct of government tends, under these conditions, to deteriorate into an endless round of political maneuverings, of stagnation and inaction—of half measures or no measures at all." In his strongest appeal to date in the stepped-up party effort to elect a friendly congress, the President called for a rekindling of the GOP campaign enthusiasm of 1952. "I am convinced that the great majority of Americans think that we have done a good job," he said. "But the very confidence that they now have in our government has understandably diminished their constant and active participation in its affairs."

By UNITED PRESS Officially, clocks will be set back an hour in those areas having daylight saving time at 2 a.m. Sunday. In seven states and the District of Columbia the annual time change is mandatory. Eight other states move it up to individual communities. This year, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and four communities in Vermont have decided to stay on daylight saving time until the last Sunday in October. There are at least 36 cities in standard time states which adopted daylight time for the summer. In Indiana, the change back to standard time means that thousands of persons will stop being lawbreakers. "Fast" time is outlawed in the state but many communities ignore the law because no penalty is provided. Use Kansan Classified Ads. On Campus with Max Shulman (Author of "Barefoot Boy With Cheek," etc.) I WAS AWARDED A RIBBON I WAS AWARDED A RIBBON AND PROMPTLY PUT IT IN MY TYPEWRITER First of all—how come? I'll tell you how come: How do I come to be writing a column for Philip Morris in your campus newspaper? Into this idyllic scene came a stranger — a tall, clean limbed stranger, crinkly-eyed and crooked-grinned, loose and lank. "How do you do," he said. "My name is Loose Lank and I am with the Philip Morris people." "Enchanted." I said. "Take off your hamburg and sit down." I clapped my hands. "Charles!" I called. "Another chair for Mr. Lank." Obediently my dog trotted away and returned directly with a fan-back chair of Malayan rattan. He is the smartest dog in our block. "I'm sorry I don't have a Morris chair," I said to Mr. Lank. "That would be rather more appropriate - you being with Philip Morris and all." Well, sir, we had many a laugh and cheer over my little witticism. When we had finished laughing and cheering, we wiped our eyes and Mr. Lank pulled out a fresh package of Philip Morris. He yanked the tape and the pack sprang open with a fetching little snap. "Did you hear that fetching little snap?" asked Mr. Lank. "Yes," I said, for I did. "Cigarette?" he said. "Thank you." I said. We puffed contentedly for three or four hours. Then Mr. Lank said, "I suppose you're wondering why I'm here." "That's a doozy!" cried Mr. Lank, giggling wildly. "I must remember to tell it to Alice when I get home." You can imagine how we howled at that one! "Well." I replied, my old eyes twinkling, "I'll wager you didn't come to read my meter." "My father" he said. "Oh," I said. "For money?" I said. "My father, he said. "Oh!" I said. "Yes." he said. "Well," he said, "let's get down to business ... How would you like to write a column for Philip Morris?" "Yes" he said. "My hand, sir," I said and clasped his. Warmly he returned the pressure, and soft smiles played on our lips, and our eyes were bright with the hint of tears, and we were silent, not trusting ourselves to speak. I nodded. "Cigarette?" he said at length. We lit up and puffed contentedly for eight or ten hours. "I understand you've made quite a study of college students" said Mr. Lank “Yes,” I said, blushing modestly. “I have been collecting them for years. I have over four thousand students in my basement right now.” "Students don't come in mint condition," I explained. "They go to great expense to acquire the 'beat-up look.'" "How interesting," he said. "Tell me something more about them— their feeding habits, for example." "They are omnivores of prodigious appetite," I said. "It is wise not to leave food about when they are present. Their favorite food is a dish called the Varsity Gasser—one scoop raspberry ice, one scoop红火ham burger, leechee nuts and maple syrup." "Fascinating," said Mr. Lank. "And what are students interested in chiefly?" "Each other," I replied. "Boy students are interested in girl students, and girl students are interested in boy students." This seems to me an admirable arrangement," said Mr. Lank. In these parlous days of worldwide tension and dreadful impairments? "It is always true," I said. "It isn't that college students don't know what's going on in the world. They know all too well. They're perfectly aware of the number of lumps waiting for them . . . But limbs are springy and the juices run strong and time is fleeting." "What will you write about in your column?" asked Mr. Lank. "About boys and girls," I said. "About fraternities and sororities and dormitories and boarding houses and dances and sleighrides and hayrides and cutting classes and going to classes and cramming for exams and campus politics and the profits of bookstores and convertibles and BMOCs and BWOCs and professors who write new texts every year and the world's slowest humans—the page boys at the library." "And will you say a pleasant word about Philip Morris from time to time?" asked Mr. Lank. "Sir," I replied, "I can think of no other kind of word to say about Philip Morris." We wook hands again then, and smiled bravely. Then he was gone. We silhouetted moving crews into the setting sun. "Farewell, good to meet you." And turned with a will to my typewriter. $ \textcircled{c} \mathrm {M a x S h u l m a n}, 1954 $ This column is brought to you by the makers of PHILIP MORRIS who think you would enjoy their cigarette.
