Benefit Seen
For Hospital

fpsilanti State Hospital is ex-
pected to benefit from the state
civil service commission decision
TO recommend salary boost in
institutions to halt loss of workers
to defense industries.
The merit group Tuesday ap-
proved the hospital commission S
request for permission TO boost in
stitution salaries 100000 during
the coming year, and Charles A.
Wagg, commission secretary. said
he Immediately" would ask the
budget department to approve the
expenditure as an emergency
measure.
The civil service commission
authorized the hospital commission
TO grant maximum salary in
creases on the basis OF length OF
service, discarding the practice OF
blanketing the wage increases of
new and veteran employees.
Wagg said this method of retro
active salary increases would
boost lower bracket hospital wages
between SIS and $50 a month and
will do much to improve our sit
uation at the 10 state hospitals
where loss OF workers has been
serious and substantial"

them out and destroy them far and

A first step toward authorizing
the construction OF great aerial
battlewagons, as large as or larg-
er than the Inflated German air
ship Hindenberg. was taken by the
House Naval Committee yesterday
when II struck q "non.rigid" linn.

The bill, already passed by the
Senate, was approved unanimously
by the House committee.
Rep Mas OF Minnesota, the
committees ranking Republican
member. declared the Nays hands
should be freed TO construct rigid
as well as the non-rigid type, for
patrol work outside the range Of

London, May 13-INS-The disre.

day.
Often japanese are seen jumping

as they began to open.

Another theory put forth Is that
the Japanese who jump without

While the Germans claimed
smashing victory. London mill
tary quarters said the Nazis still
were attacking continuously on the
kerch Peninsula, and a Soviet mid
day communique reported no SUBJ

This would indicate that neither
side had scored any major gains.

The Gulf OF Arabat is a needle
