LINCOLN'S POLICE DE PARTMENT scored twice last week during raids on the Star it e Club and Gene's Steak House. Three members of the department attempted to purchase liquor in the clubs and were accomodated even though they did not have membership cards. Seven em ployees of the two clubs were arrested during the raids. STATE A retirement bill which would set up a plan for all state employees not cov ered by retirement plans re ceived strong support during its hearing before the labor and public welfare committee of the state legislature, Wednesday. The bill is to in clude all state employees rath er than only a part of them. A WORLD HERALD SUR VEY shows that Nebraskans will pay more through a state income tax than through the present method of property taxation. The first year, ac cording to the paper, the state's income tax would probably range between 1.91 and 2.13 per cent of the tax able income. THE LEGISLATURE IN iKfeASbii the state tax on pari-mutuel betting from two per cent to three per cent The present two per cent rate brings the state $750,000 in re venue each year. The bill passed by a vote of 26-15. SALARIES AND CLAIMS COMMITTEE of the legislat ure says that the Governor should be the highest paid elective officer in the state. They have recommended raising his salary $4,000 from its present $14,000 to $18,000. (CPS) A Kennedy administration program to entice top college students into federal government careers is turning into a political squabble in Washington. The debate centers around the hiring of college stu dents for government jobs in Washington during the summer. More than 7,000 students worked in the capitol last summer, as engineers, stenographers, typists, congres sional assistants and in many other positions for various federal agencies. Before last summer, it was entirely up to the federal agency involved to determine who would get these jobs. The students did, however, Save to meet the standards set by the Civil Service Commission or the individual govern ment agency. This year, the White House has ordered federal agen cies to submit detailed plans for the hiring of summer help. White House assistant Dorothy Davies said that the administration intends merely to coordinate the summer student employment program. But several federal agencies charged that the new "coordination" system could lead to a new manner of doling out patronage for political profit. Representative Lindley Beckworth (D-Texas) has intro duced legislation to apportion summer government jobs in the nation's capitol on a state population basis. Beckworth said this week that he is getting encouraging support from both parties on the bill. The administration last summer inaugurated a series of seminars and meetings for the students working at the capitoL Such speakers as Attorney General Robert Ken nedy and Stewart Udall, Secretary of the Interior, spoke to the students on the challenges and opportunities of a government career. Mrs. Davies denied that the White House "coordina tion" would result in an increase in political patronage. She said that the new system would make sure that "good kids don't get lost in the niring shuffle . . . and that we end up with a representative group." Mrs. Davies said that she is seeking information on educational background, work experience and legal resi dences of students applying for jobs this summer. The Civil Service and the Budget Bureau have directed all agencies to submit estimates of the number of students they expect to employ during the summer. Mrs. Davies has requested copies of these statements. She said last summer, the government only planned to hire 1,500 students for the vacation period. But by the middle of June, 7,923 students were on government payrolls. Administration spokesmen said that the seminars held last summer could be termed "a general success." Mrs. Davies hopes to increase the geographic representivity of the students employed this year. Students from the Washington area have gotten the biggest share of the jobs in the past But the administration will oppose Representative Beckwortn's proposal to enforce geographic apportionment, on grounds that it limits free choice of the best students. Dr. Suttie Lectures On Fluorine Effects Police Halt Architects On March Lincoln police Wednesday halted 40 University students from picketing in front of City Hall for the preservation of trees that are being re moved for parking space. Police ' said that city laws revented picketing unless their number were reduced to two on each side o the block. Earlier this week the City Council unanimously au thorized the conversion of the park area east of City Hall in to 14 additional parking stalls for city officials and employ ees. The students, mostly from the department of architec ture, were watched by citv officials from the widows of City Hall. Some of the student plac ards read: "Help Stamp Out Parking Lots," "City Fathers, Is This Progress?" "Tree Cutting Is Un-American," "Parking Lots Are Built By Men of Measured Merri ment." One pictured a tree and had the captain: "Color Me Gone." The students argued that while a few city officials may benefit from the added park ing stalls, the city of Lincoln will lose by the removal of the trees which are the only natural green spot left in downtown Lincoln. City Hall has a 32-stall park ing lot, but 52 persons are au thorized to use the free parking. UiniDeirsfltiy Doscyss K1U Delegates icy Afi AAudkvest CoGndcflve The Midwest Model United Nations (MMUN), composed of representatives of Midwest ern universities and colleges, held in St. Louis last week did much to clarify the oper ations of the UN and U.S. policy, according to mem bers of the University dele gation. The purpose of the confer ence was not only to make the UN work known to stu dents, but to encourage stu dents to reach conclusions about United States policies and develop a student public which takes action upon its beliefs, said delegate Susie Segrist. The MMUN was divided into five committees at the St. Louis conference: the trus teeship committee, political and security committee, eco nomic and financial commit tee, special political commit tee and the security commit tee. Each country was repre sented in the first four com mittees, but only the actual members participated in the security' committee, she said. Students representing France, China, Russia, Great Britain and the United States were able to exercise the veto power. The committees discussed resolutions which had been submitted by the various schools concerning the coun try hey represented. Each committee was allowed to su mit three resolutions to the General Assembly for discus sion by all the member na tions. Topics facing the trustee ship committee were those of South West Africa, the ques tion of the possessions of the United States, the question of Angola and the future of the trusteeship committee itself, Through extended discusion proposals were submitted concerning each, Miss Segrist said. The political and security committee considered wheth er or not to seat the People's Republic of China in the UN and the need for a permanent United Nations Armed Force. The economic and financial committee discussed the fu ture and scope of the UN Spe cial Fund, the improvement of world market conditions and the future of and respon sibility of nations in connec tion with the UN bond issue. The special political com mittee dealt with the report of the UN Scientific Commit tee on the effects of atomic radiation, peaceful uses of outer space and the action which should be taken con- Peace Corps Delegate For Miimst Points To Success Of Organization h Motions Seek More Volunteers NATION TWO UNIDENTIFIED JETS fired across the United State's Floridian last Friday. Al though the ship was not hit, two U.S. Navy Corsair fight ers were sent to the scene. By the time they arrived, "nothing was going on," ac cording to Washington offic ials. The Cubans have since issued a formal apology to the United States for the inci cent. THE UNITED STATES has said that it will not allow the Cuban refugee raiding parties to use American soil as a base for their operations. The action was taken because of the concern that the raids might cause the cold war to turn into a hot war in thej ticklish Caribbean area.

Trips Committee Plans Ski Party The Student Union Trips and Tours Committee is spon soring a Ski Trip party for all students who have been on one ski trip and for those interested in going next year. The party will be April 10 at 7 p.m. in 334 Student Union. Pictures of the' 1962 and 1963 Ski Trips will be shown. Students who have any films, slides or snapshots are re quested to bring them to the Union program office April 8. The committee will arrange the order of presentation. Students may purchase Ski Trip emblems for 50 cents, at the party and coffee and doughnuts will be served. tion because of a lack of sup porting evidence. But as more evidence comes in, more of these scientists are coming out for fluoridation, Suttie said. "Second," he said, "there are those who argue against government s right to 'mass medication'. Third are the food faddists, and fourth are those who react against some unsupported claims by Fluor idation proponents." The chemical mechanisms involving fluorine are not clear, said Suttie, but in bones and teeth the fluorine re places hydroxide groups in crystaline deposits of Calcium and Phosphate Apa tites. Noting that Lincoln's water naturally contains about .340.4 parts per million of flu oride, Suttie said that might have a beneficial effect on dental health. By SUE HOYTK Nebraskan Staff Writer Dr. Clarence Josephson, representative from tht Peace Corps for the Midwest, told students yesterday that there are three important factors which indicate the success of the Peace Corps. All of the 50 countries re questing volunteers for the first time .asked for more many for twice or three times and some for four times as many. When the Peace Corps budget returned to Congress for appropriations for the second year, Congressmen overwhelmingly doubled the $30 million given to the or ganization the first year. At first the Communists made fun of the Peace Corps and said that American youths were just going over and fraternizing with the na tive people. A year ago, the Communists began a big propaganda campaign against the Peace Corps because they j felt that something was be ing accomplished, said Dr. Josephson. This year 4500 Americans Boots, Uniforms Overtake Coliseum Polished boots and pressed uniforms will take over the University Coliseum and Mili tary Science building tomor row with the 1963 Drill Meet of the Second Regiment of Pershing Rifles.

Corps program. Forty per cent ot these were women.: By the end of 1953, the Peace Corps plans to have 9,000 volunteers, said Dr. Jo sephson. He said that church-spon sored colleges have produced more than their share of vol unteers. State universities have a large number of par ticipants, but in relation to their enrollment, the number is smalL Interested students should write for the application form in the fall of their senior year so they may take the October placement test which could be given on this campus, sug gested Dr. Josephson. The test is long and com prehensive. It is not graded, but used to determine what skill the person has. The two years start with the three to four month train ing program on a university campus. Travel expenses will be paid to the training cen ter. Dr. Josephson said that many are sent to the Univer sity of New Mexico because of the ideal climate. During the training period, future volunteers take educa tion courses, if they plan to teach, language courses, courses in the history and culture of the country to which they are going, a brief review of American history, physical education courses, and a survey of political sci ence philosophies. If a volunteer goes to train ing without a language course behind him, he will receive a more concentrated study of the language needed.

The third and last date for seat belt installa tion, which is part of the In nocents safety program, is Thursday, April 11, according to John Nolon, president Tickets for the seat belts are $5. They may be pur chased at the site of installa tion, Nolon said. Installation will run from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. today. gram, 1300 entered with no language background. He said that about seven to eight percent of the people who enter the training period are rejected by the end of it He stressed that this was usually due to personality faults and not because of skill. People are accepted on the basis of applications and rec ommendations and there is no personal interview before the training period starts. The Peace Corps does not want people who are out to sell their own ideas to govern ment and tell them the way things should be done. A bas ic qualification of the volun teer is to have respect for other points of views on sub jects, he said. Dr. Josephson said that a person can voluntarily drop out of Hie Peace Corps at any time, even after they are overseas. He said that the organization does not want anyone who is not in com plete sympathy with the pro-! gram. The volunteer is given Iwo preferences oa the country to which h wants to go. The Peace Corps will probably give him one of the first jobs that comes through, but he can wan for his preference to come through with no prej udice on his application, he said. Of the 4500 volunteers, about 1200 are in Latin Amer ica, 1800 in Africa and the others in Asia and islands throughout the world. Groups of 20-30 are usually sent to one country although they do not work in one place at one job. Dr. Joseph son said that if volunteers are sent to rural areas, they are sent in pairs. Meetings of all volunteers in the country are held about four times a year. Dr. Josephson said that vol unteers become acquainted with the government of that country and work for ft Where possible they work un der a native supervisor and along with a native. When volunteers leave the Peace Corps after their two years (they cannot re-enlist), they receive a termination al lowance of $1890.

Some of the delegations wore the dress of the country they were representing, said Miss Segrist. The Russian delegation frequently pounded their shoes on the tables and succeeded in coercing neigh boring countries into voting their way, she added. The students noted that the major fault of the General Assembly was an inability to get to the real issues because of being bogged down in par liamentary procedure. The resolutions which passed the General Assembly of the MMUN will be sent to the UN. Although no action will probably be taken, UN members will give them some consideration, Miss Segrist said. Rev. Tr afford Mahcr, direc tor of the department of ed ucation and the human rela tions center at St. Louis Uni versity and the chairman of the Missouri Advisory Com mittee to the United States Commission on Civil Rights, opened the session. His speech centered on the "Major Issue in the UN To day: the Human Issue." At the closing session Dr. Andrew Cordier, a former ad visor to the president of the UN, addressed the delegates on "The United Nations in a World of Tensions." His ex perience afforded an inside look into the problems of UN operation.
