West Still Leads In Atomic Arms WASHINGTON (A I'M Presi dent Kisenhower said Wednesday the Western world still leads Russia in atomic and hydrogen weapons. But he said It is prob lematical "how long that lead can be sustained." Kisenhower also told a news conference: "There cornea a time, possibly, when a lead is not significant in ihe defensive arrangements of a country. If you get enough of a particular type of weapon, I doubt that it is particularly Im portant to have a lot more of It." It would be unwise, the Presi dent said, to attempt any fixed conclusion as to whether Russia might pull even with the West in three or four years. The chief executive's remarks were touched off by a question about a statement Tuesday by Prime Minister Churchill of Brit ain that the United States now has many times as much strength as ftussia in hydrogen bombs.

DAY AT THE ZOO (Continued from pane two) \ came and ate the cousin for aft ernoon tea, that's what.” "Damn,” said the robin, and sat down dejectedly. "You know, if my nest were only closer to the worms, I could meet the com petition." “Well, you > robins build the nests. Heaven only knows no Salubreeziea are silly enough to go around balancing ourselves up in some stickery old nest all our lives.” For a minute they sat there, studying grammar. And then the Salubree/.ie had nnr of those mental flashes of light ning that rend the chaff from the grain and—well, he had an idea. "Robin." he said, putting his ■ arm pal-like around the robin's shoulders (and robina have a ; hard type of shoulder to put your arm around i. “If your nest was j closer,1 it would be under the I fog.” "Right.” “Well out of sight of people I who are twenty-three feet tall.” "Right.” "So if you were that tall ymr would get the terrible miseries in ' your back if you went around bending under the fog to find nests.” "Right." ••Robin,” said the Saltt hree/.ie, "here’s salt on your tail!” And they went, off to gether and smoked a big hunk of moss. The next season all the robins built their nests under the fog. The twenty three-foot tall (irahulgpiugger went to work for a compnny that screwed little brass knobs on tops of flagpoles. And the Northern Division standings? Well, the Salubreezies came out second anyway but that's not the important thing.

Tuition, Fees For SU Traced This Is th« second in a series ! of three articles on the student j dollar and University finances, j 't'he third will appear in Fri day’s Emerald. By Sue Lamb Emerald Reporter Approximately $4.50 of the Oregon student's $55 tuition fee j goes to the Student Union and j educational activities budget. | What the individual student gets i for his or her money makes a ! lengthy list. Student government and ad ministration, offices and facilities for student activities, concert i programs, food service and rec reational facilities form only a j partial list of the services made ’ available by the SU and its di rectorate. Here are the facts, as present ed. by Si Ellingson, SU director. ; "We don't attempt to make any profit.” Ellingson explains. "All we want to do is end up with our books out of the red.” SU income is drawn from two , main sources student fees and, receipts from the use of facili-: ties and services rendered. Particular allocation of this in- 1 come toward the SU program is made on an arbitrary basis, ac cording to Ellingson, and the sys- i tern of budgeting has been plan ned and revised every year in order to make the best possible use of funds. A student faculty committee, known as the Student Union and Educational Activities Budget board, has charge of the distri bution of the money. Any chan ges or proposals for revision of the budget are submitted to the University president for ap proval. Ellingson. as the board’s agent, has the job of actual dis persement of funds. No particular percentage of funds is allocated to any one ac tivity or department with one ex ception.
