"I don't think there is an answer to that question relative to morality. I've been laughed at in the past and I've had fun poked at me in the past because I said we should use moral suasion. I think most of us in the room know that in at least one circumstance, moral suasion was very successful in this community and it can be again." (The chancellor was referring to the discrimination in local barber shops in the Lawrence area which was under fire last year.)
He continued, "As I said in my interview to the Kansan, if the fraternities weren't making any moves in this direction there would be cause for university alarm and perhaps cause for university decision. But they are moving in this direction and I think we should compliment them for moving in this direction. I think we should help them in moving in this direction. But I think no University dictum or fiat will help them move in that direction."

ALAN LATTA, Wichita senior and member of Alpha KappaLambda, asked the chancellor what policy he would take if the Kansas Board of Regents decided that the University should not recognize fraternities which had discriminatory clauses in their national constitutions.
Chancellor Wescoe answered that the Board of Regents is the governing body of the University and he would follow any decision they would make.
Chancellor Wescso said, "I do not think that the University can wash anybody's brain." He said that he had been asked if he has been receiving any pressure from alumni about the discrimination problem. He said, "I have yet to have one alumni speak to me about this question."

French, Algerian -
President Charles de Gaulle called his cabinet into session this afternoon to give formal approval to the peace settlement and approve a series of decrees to set the machinery of the pact working.
An extraordinary session of the National Assembly will be held tomorrow to hear a message from De Gaulle and a statement by the government. The statement will be followed by a debate—but no vote.
DE GAULLE MADE it clear in a broadcast to the nation last night that he will seek approval of the pact directly in a nationwide referendum. This is expected to be held April 8 or soon after that.
The cease-fire settlement was signed yesterday at Evian, a French resort community on the shores of Lake Geneva, at 7:30 p.m. (12:30 p.m. EST). It capped a final 12 days of negotiations and frequent false alarms that agreement was imminent.
De Gaulle spoke to the nation two and a half hours later. He appealed for ratification by the French nation through the forthcoming vote.
WITHIN HOURS THE first terms
of the cease-fire pact went into effect: Algerian rebel Vice Premier Mohammed Ben Bella and four companions were released from the Chateau of Aunoy near Paris after nearly six years of custody and sent off to Morocco and freedom.
All war prisoners—an estimated 17,000 Algerians and about 100 French soldiers—will be released within 20 days.
De Gaule now faced the immense task of trying to put across the agreement in Algeria without a new bloodbath. He banked heavily on what he described as the "dynamism of peace" to do so. But he had to deal first with the OAS.
Officials in Paris were not seriously concerned that the OAS could do much in France where it has little popular support, although some increase in plastic bombing attacks and possibly attempted assassination of French leaders was expected.
BUT IN ALGERIA, the OAS virtually controls some of the big cities in which the European population is concentrated. OAS tactics were expected to be a new terrorist offensive against the Moslems in an attempt to provoke them in mass attacks on Europeans in which the French army would be called in to intervene.

The William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information is one of the 17 accredited schools of journalism in the United States. Many more universities have departments of journalism.
Exactly what changes, if any, would be made in the courses of study that would result from the proposed switch was not known. The present sequence of studies for students majoring in the news-editorial field at KU requires a minimum of 31 hours of journalism courses.
The resolution would have placed the KU department within the College of Liberal Arts. Instead of the present Bachelor of Science in Journalism being offered at the two Universities, journalism graduates would have received bachelor of arts degrees. However, students already enrolled in journalism would have been given Bachelor of Science degrees upon graduation.
