ALBANY, N. Y, May 23.-A life
prisoner-inventor at Sing Sing,
whose death sentence was commuted
seven years ago, may help the
Nations armed forces solve the
problem ON gasoline power more
cheaply.
Identity OF Lowell Landers, 80,
colored, of Nashville, Tenn. as the
originator of a combustion engine
which he claims burns gasoline it
breaks down from ordinary fuel oil
was disclosed last night when Gov
Lehman signed a bill intended to
let the Federal Government negoti-
ate with the prisoner.
The Army and Navy expressed
interest in Landers' invention, which
he says would reduce gasoline cost
from % to cents a gallon. But the
man, as life prisoner, was consid-
cred legally dead.
So. State Senator William F. Con-
don introduced the new statute. It
authorizes the court in a judicial
district from which person is
sentenced for life to designate a
person or committee to sell or man
age the convict's real or personal
property.
Nathan Sobel, Lehman's counsel.
recently took the invention to WASH
ington. Off1cials praised it, he re-
ported. but added other similar
inventions are being tested.
Landers was convicted OF a first
degree triangle" murder on Staten
Island.

The Conference Committee on
the soldier pay bill was reported
today to have decided on a $42-
a-manth minimum for privates
and seamen instead of $50 II 1t
can retreat gracefully from the
higher figure.
THE $50 is out" said one men,
ber as the group was called back
into closed session this morning
It's main task is 10 settle the diff
ference between the House figure
Of $50 and the $42 provided in the
Senate bill. but several other ques-
tions' remain.
One compromise proposal was
that servicemen be given the So df :
ference in war bonds and stamps
Another was that in place OF tht
So they receive a $4,000 life insur-
ance policy.
What bothered the conferees
most was that the House voted the
So increase by 33l to %. then passed
the bill by $50 to /. Because of the
overwhelming margin some sort OF
face saving formula was being
sought for presentation to the two
chambers.
One member of Congress said q
possible basis for House retreat was
the argument that until some COM
promise was reached, no one could
get any increases.
Both the Senate and House
agreed on pay advances for nom
commissioned officers and second
heutenants and ensigns. They also
agreed to increase rental and SUBJ
sistence allowances for all officers

group which since its inception has
directed itself to disunity amongst
