WESTERN 'FRONT.' Up The
War Department hasn't silenced
a long standing Army complaint
by its decision to grant a valor
badge to front line medics while
withholding the $40 monthly pay
bonus which goes to enlisted men
who wear the Combat Infantry

Doughboys and medics of the
36th Division seem agreed that the
badge is step in the right direc-
ton but were uni1npressed by
Secretary of War Stimson's rea-
soning-as reported in the Stars

TWO CONVICTED
IN EXTORTION

NEW YORK, March Is Up -
Labor Leaders Joseph S. Fay and
James Bove convicted of conspir-
acy and extortion, were confined
to the Tombs today to await SEN
fencing April 5 when they will face
possible prison terms totaling Is
years.
A special State Supreme Court
jury deliberated IS hours and IL
minutes before returning its YER
dict at 2:35 am. (EWT) today.
Moses Polakoff, attorney for
Bove, said he would appeal the
conviction. Fay's counsel was not
immediately available for com.
ment.
Fay and Bove were found guilty
on the seventh count charging ex-
dictment charging conspiracy and
on the seventh count chargig ex.
tortion of $4,000 from the Walsh
Construction Co.
The court had directed acquitta]
on two counts of extortion and the
jury cleared the two men on the
three other extortion charges.
The jury found that the two men
conspired nearly nine years ago to
extort money from contractors
building New York City's $500, OOO,.
600 Delaware water project. The
charge carries a possible three
year prison sentence.

said, II don't care too much about
about not getting the extra pay,
although I think we should get
it. At least the badge will make
clear the difference between who

Pfc. Joe Ershun, veteran Litter
bearer, of Brooklyn, N. Y, also
welcomed the badge, saying, I'm
glad to see the frontline medic get
a badge to mark him as a combat
soldier, but 1 don't see why they
didn't give us pay boost like
the infantry gets. I can't see how
it endangers our noncombatants
status. After all, paratroop medics,
get jump pay, so why shouldn't
we get hazard pay?'
