presidential nomination. He is a member of the Quorum ot Twelve

Russia Rejects India's Peace Proposal
1TNITED NATIONS, N. Y. Russia has rejected India's proposal
for ending the Korean War. Earlier -an Indian spokesman said his
country had gone as far as possible in- amending its peace plan.
Terms of the plan have caused the most aerious diplomatic breach
between the United States nd Britain in years. The United States
says it cannot accept the plan and Britain still favors it
Poland cancelled plans to give the first official reaction by the
Communist bloc to India's plan lor ending the Korean prisoner-of-war
deadlock. Diplomats thought that "the delay was to give the
Reds a chance to decide how to capitalize on the British-American
rift which was played up by the THoscow press and radio.
Main points of the new Indian plan were:
1. The "neutral" repatriation commission which will make rec
ommendations to the political parley on the POWs would include a
recommended "target date" for ending their detention.
2. If the conference does not decide in 60 days, the remaining
POWs would be removed from custody of the neutral repatriation
commission and handed over to a UN group responsible "for their
care and maintenance."

COLLEAGUES HELP . . . Professor and Mrs. Donald C. Haack
were faced with many problems when Haack became ill with polio
in August Faculty associates pitched in to help Haack.
An engineering mechanics pro- decorating left undone, will be
fessor who is finishing the things
he started before being stricken
with spinal and bulbar polio in
August, has the help of a group of
thoughtful colleagues.
Donald C. Haack was laced
with an unusual load of worry
and work when polio put him in
a bed in Lincoln General hos
pital. His own six-room house
was under construction and a
time-limit contract with a loan
company. A technical mathmat
ics paper was due for presenta
tion in December. He and his
wife, Elsie, are expecting their
third child in February.
University associates of Haack
alleviated worry about the new
house by donating some 250 work
ing hours to bring it near the liv
able stage.
Howard Walters, an Instruc
tor, headed the project and en
listed the help of nine others in
the Department of Engineering
Mechanics. The group, working
mostly on Saturdays, moved in
and "took over everything."
The house, with only interior;
occupied by Mrs. Haack and the
two youngsters before Dec. 1.
A former faculty member, Wil
liam H. Foxwell, now a lieutenant
colonel in the Air Force, volun
teered time for a one-week leave
to help with the project
Despite paralysis of Haack's
arms, legs and shoulders, he haa
continued work of the technical
paper and hopes to complete it
this week.
Haack will dictate the paper to
his wife as soon as it is com
pleted and it will be read at a
mathematics convention in De
cember. "Gradual improvement" is be
ing shown, according to the pro
fessor's physician. Haack was in
an iron lung for three days after
becoming ill Aug. 28, and since
has been using a respirator.
He is scheduled to go to a
physio-therapy center near Chi
cago Monday for "a long course
of treatment," his doctor said.
