UN Gives Dag More Power
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-(UPI) —The Security Council crushed Soviet opposition early today and gave Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold vast new powers, including the use of force if needed, to stop the explosion of civil war in the Congo.
The U.N. action drew almost immediate defiance from Presiden Moise Tshombe of Katanga Province who called the resolution a "declaration of war" against Katanga and ordered general mobilization of all white and black inhabitants of the province.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS
The Council rejected a Soviet move to oust Hammarskjold and end the U.N. operation in the Congo within 30 days.
TSHOMEE ASKED African members of the U.N. to press for postponement of any move to carry out the resolution and called for a conference of all Congolese leaders to be held in Geneva March 6.
It also beat down a resolution calling for the condemnation of the killing of Patrice Lumumba followers in the Congo after Russia twice vetoed U.S. attempts to include in the measure atrocities and assassinations by all Congolese political factions.
THE DRAMATIC SESSION wound up at 3:21 a.m. CST after a final parliamentary duel between U.S. Ambassador Adlai E. Stevenson and Soviet Ambassador Valerian A. Zorin.
It was a clear victory for the West, the Afro-Asian nations and Hammarskjold himself.
Hammarkjkold was expected to inform the U.N. troops in the Congo quickly that they could use force in emergency situations. Up to now they have been restricted to using arms only in self defense and have not been able to stop factional wars.
THE ADOPTED RESOLUTION
was sponsored by the United Arab Republic, Ceylon and Liberia. Itzipped through by a $\theta$-0 vote, with Russia and France abstaining. France apparently felt it was too critical of Belgium.
—Urged immediate U.N. steps to prevent a Congolese civil war, including use of force "if necessary, in the last resort."
The resolution:
—Urged measures for immediate withdrawal of Belgian and other foreign military personnel and advisers not under the U.N. command.
CALLED ON. all countries to take "immediate and energetic measures" to prevent departure of such personnel for the Congo from their territories.
—Reaffirmed previous Security Council mandates on the Congo.
—Decided on an "immediate and impartial" investigation of the death of Lumumba, the former leftist premier, and punishment of the "perpetrators of the crime."
—Urged reorganization of Congolese armed forces and their insulation from the country's politics.
—Called on all countries to extend full cooperation and assistance under the resolution.
HAMMARSKJOLD shocked the Council at the start of its 17-1/2 hour day yesterday with an announcement that six of Lumumba's followers, deported to Kasai Province by the pro-Western regime of President Joseph Kasauubu, had been executed for "war crimes" after trial by tribal chiefs.
Reed to Review ASC Clause
Most of the Afro-Asian countries and Yugoslavia went into caucus and emerged with a resolution condemning the "unlawful arrests, deportations and assassinations," calling on U.N. authorities to use force if needed to stop them and demanding an impartial investigation and punishment of the perpetrators.
Alan Reed, Leavenworth junior, plans tonight to review the All Student Council Constitution's clause regarding initiative and referendum. There was confusion at the last ASC meeting with some members uncertain about the provisions made for the racial justice initiative and petitions.
Reed, who was appointed to investigate the constitutional clause. said:
"Referendum is clearly defined in the ASC constitution. A petition bearing 20 per cent of the signatures of the student body presented to the council can force a vote on any subject.
"Perhaps some council members were being mislead when they were told it was unckar or mixed up with initiative." Reed said.
Other ASC business at tonight's meeting will probably concern the organization's clauses regarding campus publications.

The Campus Chest has raised less than half of its $5,500 goal.
The drive had raised only $2,343.-
40 yesterday at 4:30 p.m. The drive

THE IFC VOTED TO:
Ben Langel, Salina junior, said, "By sending such a letter the IFC might cause undue hardship. We might not be accomplishing what we want, but be setting Kappa Sigma up for suspension from its national organization."
Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity was placed on probation by the IFC on similar grounds on Dec. 5, 1960.

the terms of this point of the IFC recommendation. Kappa Sigma could receive "more serious punishment" if convicted on another violation of IFC rules within that period of time. No IFC member would say what that more serious punishment would be.
- **Pin Kappa Sigma on social suspension for six weeks as of yesterday.** Kappa Sigma will be allowed to hold a social function this Saturday because of previous financial obligations. It will not be allowed to hold any other social function after Saturday until the suspension is lifted .
A clause of the resolution that would have required notification by letter of the fraternity's national office was defeated unanimously by the IFC.
Kappa Sigma took their entire pledge class to Lecompont the evening of Nov. 6 and instructed them to find their way back.
THE RECOMMENDATION was passed after one hour and fifteen minutes of discussion.
Kappa Sigma is Put on Probation
The Interfraternity Council last night placed Kappa Sigma fraternity on disciplinary probation for holding a pledge class walk-in, a violation of IFC rules.
THE MONEY raised averages 15 cents a student.The goal of $5,500 was based on a 50 cent per student donation.
The probation was approved by a 17-6 vote of the IFC. The action came in a regular meeting at the Kansas Union.
Mavor said:
"I do not feel the drive was a failure. I measure the success of a drive by whether or not it meets expenses and has money to help unfortunate people."

Senate Bill May Pose Threat to KU
By John Peterson and Fred Zimmerman
The bill would establish the municipal University of Wichita as a state supported institution. A vote is expected Thursday in the Senate.
University officials believe a bill before the state legislature may jeopardize the future of KU.
Hancock W. Christie, wes deans
"This is a serious matter for the legislature to decide, in concert with the Board of Regents."
Although expressing deep concern, the Chancellor declined to make a further statement for publication. Several times he referred to an editorial written by Whitley Austin, chairman of the Board of Regents and editor of the Salina Journal.
THE EDITORIAL says that "the new university will look like the biggest White Elephant ever given to Kansas.
Katanga Is Mobilizing Against UN Action
"The state is about to be handed a remarkably expensive institution designed for urban needs with an outdated athletic program to titlate Wichita fans, an elaborate graduate set-up, and a student body — much of it part-time — that on the average takes about one-third less class work than students in regular colleges. It is a university that has been promoted primarily as a civic and economic attraction for the city of Wichita."
By United Press International
ELISABFTHVILLE, Katanga — (UPI) Kataanga President Moise Tshombe ordered general mobilization today to defend his Congo province against a "declaration of war" by the United Nations.
He also barred all foreigners from leaving the country, apparently in an attempt to nullify a UN order for all foreign and military advisers to get out of the Congo. He said the frontiers will be closed if necessary to prevent foreigners from leaving.
Tshombe's order calling up all black and white inhabitants for defense of his mineral-rich land was announced in a broadcast over Elisabethville radio.
IT CAME A few hours after the UN Security Council in New York adopted a resolution empowering Secretary General Dag Hammar-
skjold to use force if necessary to prevent civil war in the Congo.
Tshombe preceded his radio order with an appeal at a news conference to all African members of the UN to press for postponement of any move to carry out the Security Council resolution. He also called for a conference of all Congolese leaders to be held in Geneva March 6.
"The Security Council resolution is a declaration of war by the UN against Katanga and the whole former Belgian Congo," Tshombe said in his special broadcast.
Tshombe has declared his province "independent" of the rest of the Congo, and has set it up as a separate state.
TSHOMBE CHARGED that the UN resolution, which gave Secretary General Dag Hammskjold (Continued on page 5)

The concern of the administration centers on the feeling that there is not sufficient money in the state to adequately provide for another state institution without cutting future KU budgets.
A UNIVERSITY administrator said that the money to sustain Wichita University would come not from a tax increase but from a "spreading out" of existing state funds for education.
State Sen. William Farmer, Wichita, who is author of the bill, believes the bill will not hurt KU.
"WICHITA'S becoming a state school will have no adverse effect upon any other school as the state's obligation in the field of higher education is clearly defined." Sen. Farmer said in an interview today.
"I feel that KU will receive better attention in the future, even with Wichita a state school, than it did during the past four years."
Sen. Farmer pointed out that student population in Kansas will double in the next 15 years and that existing state educational facilities will not be able to cope with the increase.
SEN. GLEE SMITH of Larned said that theoretically the financing of Wichita would not mean decreasing support for the other five state schools but merely a bigger educational budget. He said the legislature's concern is for all schools to be properly financed. He added this would mean an increase in state educational expenditures.
If the bill is passed, the $378,000 requested this year will come from general funds outside of the already proposed state education budget for fiscal year 1562. There is no probability that the bill will cause a reduction in KU's appropriations this year.
