Nothing could be fairer. One of the reasons_for the plan is to eliminate crowding at the registration stations. Under the old plan, all members of a certain class registered on ,the -same day. For example, senior engineers crowded around one station while freshman English composition stations were empty. Under the new system, members of all classes will register at the same time alphabetically. This, should make the lines shorter at all stations because the students admitted at one - time to Recreation Hall will be distributed more evenly around the stations. Next year's seniors are complaining that if their names come at the end of the alphabet, they will not be able to take the courses they want. The fact is that they would have to register last in their class, too, because that is the way the rotation would have worked out under the old system. Seniors will be able to take the courses that are required for them to greduate, according to the registrar. Depart ment heads will be -required to admit grad uating seniors to the courses they need. The new system is also designed to reduce the number of sections which will close in courses.

Many liberal Protestant students regard Jesus as a man and believe that God is incarnate in all men, not Jesus alone.

FRANK CRESSMAN. Business Mgr. Valve —John M. Tomlinson STUDENT EMPLOYMENT UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL Anderson Urges Allied Attempt To Stop Reds WASHINGTON, May 14 (iP)— Robert B. Anderson, deputy sec tary of defense, said tonight it is of "transcendent importance" that the United States and Allies join in a collective effort to prevent further Communist gains in any area. While -Anderson did not men tion Indochina, his remarks were against the background of Ameri can attempts to muster big power help to halt the Reds in Southeast Asia. Anderson expressed his views in an address prepared for an Armed Forces Day dinner, which President Eisenhower was sched uled to attend. He said that in a world menaced by aggression "there th.e certain positions and issues which peace able nations must show them selves willing to defend with firm policy and diplomatic implemen tation, if possible, with military force if necessary." He declared: • "The pattern of modern aggres sion ' is that .of conquest on the instalment plan—the piecemeal absorption of peoples and terri tories in which the Soviets hope no one instance may, at the time, be regarded as a cause of • war to be engaged in by the collective effort of free 'nations, but which in the aggregate tends to shift the balance of world power toward the side of the. aggressors."

But formidable obstacles moved slightly today from the rig ists toward ending the war in In still stand between the Indochina conference and peace. Molotov proposed an amend ment to the Communist armistice plan presented earlier by Viet minh representatives. The amend ment provided for supervision of the armistice by a neutral nation's commission. Both United States and French spokesmen declined comment, but one French delegation source said it was " "a concession on one of the points which we regarded as most important." Molotov, today's chairman, an nounced a two-day recess in In dochina talks. He said that a meeting restricted to delegation heads and th r e e advisers each would be held- on Monday. This was a move suggested to Molotov privately by British Foreign Sec retary Anthony Eden earlier to day.
