Hey, Soldier,
Pay May 60 up

Washington, Mar. S1-AP-Hey,
soldier. things are looking up on
that idea OF boosting your pay to
$42 a month.
The Senate voted yesterday to
double the S21-a-nronth basic pay
OF Army buck privates but at least
a fortnight and possibly much
longer will elapse before the
House begins action on the legis-
lation.
The House is in what virtually
amounts to an Easter recess and
there appeared little likelihood to-
day that the Military Affairs Com
mittee would start hearings on the
pay increase bill before April IL,
at the earliest.
As passed in the Senate by a
vote Of 70 to yesterday. the mea-
sure would make the first basic
change in the Army pay scale in
90 years.
In addition TO doubling the mi
tial rate for privstes, the bill pro
poses increases all along the line
for enlisted men in both the Army
and Navy. In the Army master
sergeant. the highest non-commis-
stoned classification. would re-
ceive s13S month instead Of sl26.
Chief petty officers in the Navy
would receive similar increases.

ficials of the Standard Oil Co, OF
New Jersey today made sweep

the company blocked development
OF synthetic rubber In the United
States and instead supplied Ger

Stung by Assistant Attorney
General Thurman Arnold's recital
OF relations between Standard and
the /. G. Farbenindustrie, German
Chemical Trust, the company sent
President w. s. Parish to Wash

Parish declared that the com

its arrangement with the big Ger

Charges Denied BY Standard Oil
Senate Leaders Seeking to
Retain Forty Hour Ruling

Washington. Mar. 31-lNS.-Sen-
ate leaders today fought to choke
off consideration OF labor legisla-

week, indicating that a counter
move for a broad investigation OF

Sen. Connally CD Tex, thrust
the labor issue before the Senate
with a demand for consideration

President power to seize strike

Paper Company Whistle
Tested For Raid Siren

Npsilanti had its first air raid
siren test this noon when the whis-
tie OF the Peninsular Paper Com
pany was blown to determine its
effectiveness for air raid warnings.
The demonstration was arranged
under the supervision OF Spencer
Davis. chief air raid warden. Per
sons at various distances from the
company had been requested to lis.
ten for the whistle TO determine It's
loudness. The sound was heard for
approximately two miles, Nj
Davis said.
Following the test MIR. Davis stat.
ed that he doubted u the whi-tle
could be used as an air raid siren

police commission feels as 1t
would add TO the life OF motor
cycles and scout cars.
Another convenience would
be TO residents OF Ypsilanu who,
in making visits TO the police
department have to mingle with
others accused OF law breaking.
This embarrassing situation
would be eliminated in the pro
posed structure where a sepa-
rate bureau for issuance OF driv-
ers licenses would be provided.
Oficers would also be avail
able for conferences in situa-
tons which often prove highly
disconcerting to individuals
who have family or personal
problems on which police advice
is sought.
II is expected that more CO.

the department with an arrange
ment whereby information may
be given 10 police officers with

1t was on September 7. 1907,

FIVE different chiefs, Milo Gage,

chief Dan +. l.. Patch. He has
been part OF that department IN
some capacity ever since. He was
made a sergeant in 1925 when John

Recalling his many years work,
the white haired police ofhcer re-
counted what was one OF his most
exciting experiences, the Brab
Jewelry Store robbery in Janu'

thugs just leaving the jewelry

leaving by another window When
they did not stop, Sgt Morey fired
