Spiegel Supports Docking's Paroles
TOPEKA —(UPI) — "Chaos and destruction" might result if Atty. Gen. John Anderson Jr.'s position on paroles is upheld, Gov. George Docking's pardon attorney said here yesterday.
Dale E. Spiegel, pardon attorney, filed a brief in Shawnee County District Court in a lawsuit Anderson brought against Gov. Docking last year, claiming that the governor had no authority to grant paroles.
Spiegel said the case boils down to two questions:
Did a 1957 law strip the governor of power to grant paroles?
Does reliance on his pardon attorney for recommendations in clemency cases amount to delegation to another by the governor of his constitutional power to pardon?
Both questions, Spiegel said, are answerable in the negative.

Docking Backed
society to keep so many people who are anti-social.
"I am sympathetic to men in Gov. Docking's position who have to make decisions of this sort. I think he did this from his own convictions and was not motivated politically. Gov. Brown of California has strong humanitarian feelings and I am sure Gov. Docking does, too. I am strongly sympathetic to men in their position.
"I would interpret my stand on the issue as a Christian one. Vengeance should never be the motivation for execution."
JAMES K. LOGAN, assistant professor of law, said:
"I do not think Gov. Docking's move was politically motivated. I think he realized that his action might lose votes rather than gain them. I think he was acting out of genuine distaste for the death penalty. I also do not believe that this can be interpreted as a slap at Atty. General Anderson."

Around the World Nehru Embarrassed by Ike Plan Aimed Cool Welcome for Chou To Aid Canal Tie
NEW DELHI — (UPI) — Chinese Premier Chou En-lai arrived today in New Delhi and received such a chilly and hostile welcome that Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru looked embarrassed.
Club weilding police broke up an attempted demonstration before the marchers could reach the airport to further embarrass the two premiers. Sixty demonstrators were arrested.
The official greeting for Chou was cool and correct. But his arrival to discuss the Sino-Indian border dispute ran into open hostility, threats of even bigger demonstrations and extreme security precautions.
The only persons on hand were hundreds of armed and plainclothes policemen who looked tired but attentive.
WHEN CHOU last visited India he was greeted with shouts of "Hindi-Chini Bhai Bhai" — Indians and Chinese are brothers. This time the silence was deafening.
Chou came out of his plane beaming and looked around searchingly for the usual well-wishers. Except for officials and protocol officers there weren't any. He appeared disappointed.
HE TRIED to gain the Indians' sympathy by raising his hands in the Indian style of greeting. There was no response and Nehru looked embarrassed as he walked alongside him.
Chou repeatedly looked towards Nehru but the Indian Prime Minister was in such a pensive mood that Chou turned instead to M.R.A. Baig, the Indian chief of protocol, and chatted with him.
The attempted anti-Communist demonstration was carried out by the Orthodox Hindu Mahasabha Party. A spokesman said police intercepted about 100 of them as they moved towards the airport carrying black flags of protest. He said the demonstrators refused to disperse and police charged them with canes.
Free Tickets Now Available For KU Drama Symposium
Free tickets are available for three award-winning plays to be presented Thursday, Friday and Saturday by the Experimental Theatre in its second annual drama symposium.
The three plays were selected from entries from all over the country. First prize in the contest is $100, to be awarded to the author of one of the three plays performed this week in Swarthout Recital Hall. The prize is provided by the Centron Motion Picture Corp. and will be awarded by four judges after the presentation of the last play.
Judges for the competition include
The plays include "While Penelope Spins," by William L. Weber of Los Angeles; "Tiger Born," by Carroll P. Cole of Elsah, Ill.; and "The Rite of Spring," by William J. Sollner of Kansas City, Mo. The plays will be given Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights respectively.
Allen Crafton, professor of speech; John A. Meixner, instructor in English; Mrs. Peggy Green, columnist for the Topeka Capital Journal; and John Beaufort, New York drama critic for the Christian Science Monitor. Judging will end with a symposium after the last production.
The production of the plays is important to the authors because of the prestige of having a play presented on a college campus. This also means that the plays will each probably be published.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — (UPI)—President Eisenhower today announced a broad program of pay increases and improved housing for employees of the Panama Canal Zone in an effort to improve relations between the United States and the Republic of Panama.
The nine-point program, most of which will be put into effect immediately, included a 10 per cent pay raise for unskilled and semi-skilled workers, and teachers in the Latin American schools within the zone, provision of 1,000 new housing units for canal workers and installation of a $750,000 new water main to serve the city of Panama.
RELATIONS between the United States and Panama have been strained recently over a broad range of problems chiefly involving greater recognition of the government of Panama in its relations with the Panama Canal Company, and improved benefits for Panamanians employed in the zone. The zone and the company are controlled largely by the U.S. Army.
Eisenhower, in addition to ordering a number of specific actions taken immediately, also directed all agencies in the zone to review the list of jobs hitherto reserved for U.S. citizens "with a view of placing more Panamanians in skilled and supervisory positions."
The nine-point program made no mention of one point of issue—the Panamanian desire for equal display of the republic's flag with that of the United States. This matter apparently continues under study.
The improved housing program included plans for construction of approximately 500 units of modern rental housing for Panamanian employees of the zone, plus construction of 500 houses for sale to Panamanians employed in the zone and living in Panama.
The difficult we do immediately. The impossible takes a little longer.—Slogan of United States Army Air Forces
Regents Eliminate Engineer Degree
No longer will graduates of KU's School of Engineering and Architecture be able to receive a "professional" degree in their specialty for five years of responsible engineering work and a thesis on some phase of their work which has resulted in the advancement of ine engineering profession.
At the request of the engineering faculty, the Kansas Board of Regents has eliminated the professional degree. This action does not affect the regular four and five-year bachelor's programs and advanced academic degree programs.
The professional degree had offered the working engineer the chance to combine his career responsibilities with a kind of academic research. It was instituted several years ago when advanced engineering was hard to achieve. It permitted the working engineer to add to his B. S. or M. S. the degree of "mechanical engineer," "civil engineer," or whatever his specialization might be.

Only nine such degrees have been awarded since 1948.
This airplane is actually a flying classroom. The course taught in it is Air Navigation, under real conditions. The students are young men who have been selected as possible future leaders of the Aerospace Team. Graduation after 32 weeks of training will win each of the students the honored silver wings of an Air Force Navigator and an Officer's Commission.
For certain young men, this training can open the way to a bright career of executive potential. Right now the Air Force is scoring impressive technological advances in the fields of navigation, guidance and tracking, electronics and radar. And here is where its highly trained and experienced Navigators will be expected to take over command positions of increasing responsibility.
To qualify for Navigator training as an Aviation Cadet, you must be between 19 and 26$^{1/2}$-single, healthy and intelligent. And you must want to build an exciting, interesting career in the Aerospace Age. If you think you measure up, we'd like to talk to you at the nearest Air Force Recruiting Office.
