Independents Kill IWS
The Independent Women's senate only remaining independent political party on the campus, was dissolved at a meeting called Monday by Ruth Keller, president.
Senate officers and independent house representatives concluded that without the financial aid of the Independents, men's party which was dissolved last year, sufficient funds would not be available to carry out their program. It was also agreed that no issue exists between the Greek and independent political parties, and that this might be a step toward better understanding between the two groups in the future.
The party will not be reorganized until the need arises, or until sufficient interest is shown by independent students, it was decided.
Czechs Break Pact With Tito Regime
Prague, Czechoslovakia, Oct. 4. — (U.F.) — Czechoslovakia broke its friendship pact with Yugoslavia today and demanded the recall of Yugoslav ambassador Marijan Stilinowitch.
The foreign office sent a note to the Yugoslav embassy, the official news agency reported, accusing the government of Marshal Tito of "Industrial Espionage," of following Western imperialists, and of being hostile to Czechoslovakia.
Thus Czechoslovakia fell in line with Hungary, Bulgaria, Poland, and Romania which in turn had followed Russia in breaking off friendship pacts with Yugoslavia.
The official news agency said the foreign office had sent a note to the Chinese Nationalist ambassador and a message to the Chinese Communist government informing them of the decision.
russia, Bulgaria and Romania already had recognized the new Communist government of China.
In a separate action, Czechoslovakia broke off diplomatic relations with Nationalist China and recognized the new Communist regime.
Men's Glee Club Practices Today
The first practice of the University Men's Glee club will be held at 5 p.m. today in room 32, Strong hall, Dale Ferguson, president, said.
Practice hours for the glee club this year will be at 5 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday.
US Recognition Of Reds Unlikely
Washington, Oct. 4 — (U.P.) — Foreign policy experts said there appears to be no possibility that the United States will recognize the new Communist regime in China now for a long time to come.
They said any Chinese regime will need the United States far more than this country needs China. By withholding recognition, they said, America should be able to gain important cold war advantages.
Political quarters here face the possibility that Britain soon may recognize the Reds. Such a step, they said, might be dictated by the commercial interests of a nation facing bankruptcy, but it would not mean any Anglo-American split on Far Eastern policy. U. S. officials said an "effective concert" of Far Eastern policies was reached at big three talks here in mid-September.
The state department promised Monday to consult congress before any steps are taken toward recognition of the Chine's reds.
In addition, the United States plans to consult with about a dozen "interested and friendly" governments on the China question.
Although state department Far Eastern experts are frequently accused of favoring the Chinese Communists, these officials appear unimpressed with the pledges of the Communist People's Republic which was proclaimed Friday in Peiping.
They point out that although the Reds have promised to "protect law-abiding foreign nationals in China," American businessmen and officials have "taken an awful pushing around." U. S. diplomats have been singled out for mistreatment.
Also the state department has refused to accept an implied pledge that the reeds would abide by China's international commitments. Recently the Communists promised to "examine" all treaties and international arrangements entered into by the Nationalists and to "recognize" or obrogate them according to content.

"There are still a few remaining veterans," Dr. Elbel said, "that have not turned in all of their papers, and this will only cause them further delay in receiving their checks.
"It is important for veterans who have their certificates of eligibility and entitlement to have them endorsed by our office if they expect to receive any subsistance," Dr. Elbel said.

Fights Spread As Strikes Idle Over 1 Million
Pittsburgh, Oct. 4. (U.P.) -Unemployment mounted rapidly today as the impact of the steel and coal strikes spread by the hour through the nation's staggering industrial machine.
The number of strike-Idled may well hit 1,250,000 by the end of the week and two million by Nov. 1 if the strikes continue.
As workers in allied industries were being furlouged by the thousands, new efforts were underway to end both the steel and coal walkouts, which stemmed from pension disputes.
In Washington, top-secret conferences between federal mediators and presidential assistant John R. Steelman were believed to have laid the groundwork for renewed efforts to settle the strikes. Some government action, perhaps from the White House itself, was expected by the end of the week.
Officials of the United Mine Workers meanwhile returned to the conference table today with the southern operators at Bluefield, W. Va. Contract talks with the big commercial northern and western operators will resume tomorrow at nearby White Sulphur Springs.
On the eve of the negotiations, new outbursts of gunplay rocked the violence-ridden coal fields. Nonunion coal miners ambushed a group if union men at Pikeville, Tenn., wounding three of them with rifles and shotgun fire. Two other union men were reported missing after the encounter.
Local officers at Grundy, Va., were investigating the killing of a nonunion truck driver. He was crushed by a boulder that crashed down from a mountainside, and police said they suspected foul play.
In Pennsylvania, warrants were out for the arrest of eight men after a band of 110 pickets overturned a supply house and damaged equipment at a non-union strip mine in Elk county.
Police reported a dynamite blast at a coal tipple in Clearfield county, Pa., late Monday night. The explosion caused no damage other than moving the earth of the tipple mound.
At Pittsburgh, the C.I.O. United Steelworkers and Aluminum company of America will resume negotiations covering 16,000 workers in nine plants this afternoon. The company is operating under an indefinite contract extension. It already has in effect a company - financed pension-insurance plan costing seven cents an hour-only three cents under the C.I.O. demand.
At least 100,000 "white collar" workers already have been funloughed as a direct result of the steel strike. The number of strike-ided could easily reach 2,000,000 - - - - -
Some government officials looked for a quick break in the deadlocked "welfare" disputes as soon as the public feels the pinch of short supply. Neither side, they pointed out, can withstand too much public hostility.
