Martin, Taft Ike to Discuss Policy Problems
New York—(U.P.)—Sen. Robert A. Taft and Rep. Joseph W. Martin Jr., today put before President-elect Eisenhower in general terms a legislative program for the 83rd Congress.
Sen. Tatt and Rep. Martin put their ideas on the legislative program into writing in a Washington conference yesterday and presented their summary to Eisenhower in a conference at the Commodore hotel headquarters of the President-elect.
The Ohio senator and Massachusetts representative said they expected no detailed program to come from the meeting. Sen. Taft said no effort would be made to reach any definite agreement today, but that the purpose of the conference was to exchange views with Gen. Eisenhower.
Rep. Martin said they gave Gen. Eisenhower a list of subjects more or less certain to come up at the next session of Congress. He said finance and economics headed the list.
Rep. Martin added that Gen. Eisenhower would be expected to add his own ideas to the list.
He said, "Anything that would achieve the most harmonious settlement is always open."
Sen. Taft told reporters as he entered Gen. Eisenhower's office that he was still "available" for the cost of Senate majority leader, but he regarded the matter as "still entirely open."
Neither Republican leader would reveal any specific subjects from the list they submitted to Gen Eisenhower.
Sen. Taft said any conclusions reached today would, of necessity be "very general."
"It consists of just the different subjects that should be considered during the session," Rep. Martin said.

Seoul, Korea—(U.P.)-Allied troops hurled back heavy Chinese attacks on the UN main line on the western front today while South Koreans stood firm on the central front against a rash of enemy raids apparently aimed at testing their defenses.
ROKs Beat Off 3 Red Attacks
The Chinese staged three heavy attacks last night and early today against the Hook, a vital main line ridge guarding the western invasion route to Seoul. UN defenders drove the enemy off with bayonets and fists.
At 7 p.m. (6 a.m. CST), the Koreans and the Chinese were still shooting at Rocky Point at the eastern part of the ridge. The ROKs called in artillery to help blunt the Chinese attack.
South Korean soldiers fired a deadly rain of rifle and machinegun bullets at Chinese troops stabbing at Sniper Ridge on the central front. The Red attacks were made on Pinpoint Hill and Rocky Point.
United Press Correspondent Victor Kendrick reported from the central front that 200 Chinese leading pack animals were caught in an Allied artillery barrage northwest of Sniner this afternoon.
The Chinese also probed shell-blasted finger ridge during the day, presumably in another test of South Korean defenses.
He said American military advisers speculated the Chinese were having trouble bringing supplies to their troops and had turned to horses for transportation.

"The Missouri game means a great deal to 18 KU senior players, and we must give them every bit of support possible to help them bring home a Jayhawk victory.
"It is our aim to make Thursday's between class rally the biggest campus football rally of the year," Duggan Scanlan, chairman of the ASC pep and rally committee, said.
"The game will be their last collegiate competition and they'll be out there battling for a second place tie with Missouri, but we must defeat the Tigers to gain that second place spot." Scanlan added.
About 500 Jayhawker football fans are expected to attend the annual KU - MU pregame rally at the Town House hotel in Kansas City, Kan., at 8 p.m. Thursday.
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy, Athletic Director A. C. "Dutch" Lonborg, Coach Jules V. Sikes and additional members of the football coaching staff will be among the KU representatives at the rally.
Thirty-five members of the University band under the direction of Raymond Zepp, band instructor, will be present. Cheerleaders and a number of Lawrence fans are expected to take part in the rally. Two Kansas City radio stations will broadcast a portion of the pregame rally activities.
The third and final rally will be held at 11:30 Saturday morning at Columbia, in the lobby of the Daniel football headquarters of the KU football team.
"All Jayawaker football fans are invited to attend the rally," Walter Sutton, president of the greater Kansas City Alumni association, said. An admission of $1 will be charged.
"All students driving to Columbia for the Missouri game are urged to leave early enough to make this important send-off for the KU football team," Scanlan said.
The team will leave the hotel for the stadium at 11:45 a.m. Saturday. The rally will take place while the players board the buses.
A special bus will carry members of the KuKu's and Jayanes, pep club organizations, to Columbia for the game. These pep club members expect to arrive at the hotel in time for the team send-off.

University Asks 33 Per Cent Raise in Funds
By CLARKE KEYS
The board yesterday announced the figures it would recommend to the governor's budget committee for each of the state schools. In most cases, the amounts were reductions of what the schools had requested, although all were above the last mark.
Although the recommended figure for the University's operational fund for 1954-55 is up nearly 33 per cent over the 1952-53 figure, despite a 5 per cent cut by the board of regents, the new figure represents the money necessary to continue on the same scale of operations, University officials said today.
Two hurdles still remain before even the revised figures can be obtained, the officials pointed out. The governor's committee, which will hear the University's case next week, may cut or raise the board's proposal before submitting the budget to next year's legislature, and the legislature may then raise or lower that figure.
The University requested $12,583,-937 for the next biennial operational budget. This figure does not include any building funds. The board of regents approved a request for $11,-954,489, or a reduction of about 5 per cent.
Officials say that the reduction will be felt throughout the budget, but the greatest dent will be in the maintenance division. The proposed budget had pay increases of approximately 5 per cent for teachers and $7\frac{1}{2}$ per cent increase for classified personnel, but the increases probably won't be quite that much if the present figure goes through.
The main reason that the 33 per cent increase over the 1952-53 figure is needed, officials say, is that the fee income is going down, although the number of students is increasing.
The appropriations will bear 70 per cent of the operational load, compared to 50 per cent last year.
FACTS to Discuss Plans for Wards
FACTS party will meet to discuss installation of a ward-organization plan at 7.30 p.m. Thursday in 110 Fraser, Will Adams, graduate student, said today.
Adams said the party is anxious to be instrumental in giving students in private homes more of the advantages now available only to those in organized houses. FACTS party feels, he said, that they may be able to provide a fuller social and athletic program to students who live alone.
Frosh, Sophomores Should See Advisers
Freshmen and sophomores in the College should see their faculty advisers today or Thursday for a mid-semester conference, Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean, said today.
The names of these students with their faculty advisers are listed on the bulletin board outside the College office in Strong hall. The hours and rooms also are listed.
In case of schedule conflicts students should make appointments with their advisers.
It was erroneously stated in Tuesday's Kansan that all College students see their advisers.
