Truman Favors Raise
For Congress Based
On Little Steel Pact
Proposes SoIory Increase
To $4,000 q Yeor When
Formula Is Scropped
BY J. A. FOX.

President Truman today urged
Congress to boost it's own pay
but to stay within the boundaries
of the Little Steel formula and
other stabilization criteria" until
wartime wage controls over pri-
vate industry are ended.
In letters to Senator Mcclellan,
president pro tenn. of the Senate.
and Speaker Rayburn. the President
also said congressional salaries
should be advanced "at least" to
SIS 900 when wage controls are re-
laxed.
Applying the Little Steel formula
as measuring rod would limit
Senate and House members to a
Is per cent raise, or 81 500 on $40, 0,000
In private industry. however, where
salaries are in excess of 5000, the
Treasury has control and it was
explained there today that the Wage
Sterilization Unit may grant upward
adjustments for merit, length Of
service, increased responsibility and
similar reasons without regard to
the Is per cent limit.
Mr.. Truman expressed the belief
at a news conference last Thursday
that congressional salaries should
range from $4,000 to $4,000 an
nually, and he expressed the belief
that Congress should vote straight
pay increase rather than follow the
House plan to grant members a
$500 tax-free expense allowance.
The House allowance is awaiting the
Presidents approval.
The text of the Presidents letter
today follows:
"The salaries of the members OF
the House of Representatives and
OF the Senate should be commen-
surate with the nature and volume
of work and with their responsible
ties. Equality between their pay
and their job may never be achieved,
excepting there should be less in
equity than at present. Under any
measuring rod these members OF
the Federal Legislature are under
paid.
THE members of Congress are
called upon to exercise seasoned
judgment in every field Of national
interest. They must establish the
policies that will advance the vel
fare of our people. They must
draft and weigh the statutes to
carry out these policies. They must
review the administration of the
law in order to determine whether
these policies and these statutes
should be changed. Day in and
day out this work must be done In
countless fields.

exemplify the broad scope of work

Final Action on Veto
is Expected Today
Al Security Farley

Line Up With Big Five
On Yoltu Vote pIon
BY GOULD LINCOLN,

SAN FRANCISCO, June IA
final showdown on the veto
voting formula for the security
council of the projected new
world peace organization was
expected in a United Nations
Conference committee today.
The Big Five-the United States
Britain, Russia, China and France
were prepared to go to the mat for
the Yalta voting formula which
gives them as permanent members
of the council the right to veto i'm
pcrtant decisions.
Notice has been served on tht

the formula there will be no peacs

given way on their demand to ex.
clude the veto from decisions in.
volving peaceful measures to settle
international disputes.
LF0tt Losing nAttie.
1t takes two-thirds vote to adopt
amendments in the committee. II
is obvious that Australian Foreign
Minister Herbert v. Evatt, who has
been leading the fight of some of the
smaller nations against the Big Five
cannot muster enough votes to put
across his proposal that no veto be
applicable in decisions to "investi-
gate international disputes.
Under the Big Five Interpretation
of the formula, the veto power can
not be used to block a decision tc
hear and discuss any dispute that
threatens the peace, but it will apply
to investigation and all other steps
that might be taken to settle a dis
pute, except that any nation party
to a dispute would refrain from
voting on peaceful settlement meas
ures.
Mr.. Evatt, at the conclusion oi
yesterdays three-hour session, sug-
gested that the committee proceed
to = test vote as soon as it convenes
today.
If all amendments are voted down
as is expected-the question will
then be on the adoption of the Yalts
voting formula as it stands. II
takes two-thirds vote to adopt
All the nations will be on notice
that if the formula is not agreed te
there will be an impasse and nc

pected to go along.

Australians Extend
.Borneo Drive After
Brunei Bay Landing
$4,000 U. S. Naval Men
Had Role in Invasion
Of Rich Oil IsIund
BY the Associated Press.

MANILA, June 12.-Australian
9th Division troops, rapidly ex-
plotting their smoothly executed
landings on British Borneo,
deepened their hold on the great
Brunei Bay fleet anchorage to-
day and trudged southwesteward
within 40 miles of the important
Seria oil fields against surpris-
ingly scanty Japanese opposi-
ton.
When the United States 7th Fleet
put the Australians and Gen. Mac
Arthur ashore Sunday morning, the
japanese were found largely to have
fed before the terrifying weight of
the preliminary naval and air
bombardments.
In the two days since, sporadic
machine-gun and rife fire and an
occasional mortar burst have been
the only reported enemy resistance.
The ground forces In the rein
vasion, of Borneo were entirely
Australian, but the American Fleet
played major role in the smooth
running operation. Rear Admiral
Forrest B. Royal, amphibious COM
mander, said more than $4,000
American naval personnel partici-
pated. An Australian cruiser and
smaller warcraft also took part.
| (Admiral Royal, a native of
New York City, lives at 2208 Knoll
road, Arlington, Va. He was
graduated from the Naval Acad-
emy in 1915 and was recently
awarded the Distinguished Serv-
| ice Medal for his services as COM
mander of an amphibious task
|. force operating in the Philip
| pines from July, 1914, to last jan
uary. Admiral Royal served dur
ing the World War aboard the
battleship Pennsylvania and aft

lieutenant to Rear Admiral Philip
Andrews. His wife, Mrs. Kath-
crime Knight Royal, lives at the

Coastal Village Seized.
The Australian troops quickly
seized the coastal village of Brooke
ton, the island of Muara, the Labuan
Island airf1eld and principal town
of Victoria, and marched through
sticky heat on Brunei, capital of the
British protectorate of Brunei, 16
miles southwest of Brooketon.
The chief fight put up by the
enemy thus far was reported at the
Labuan airfield, where two small
but determined pockets of resistance
required several hours for elimina-
ton.
Australian cavalry commands
made a small landing on the main
land side of the island to clean out
Japanese mortars and drive toward
Tambalai airstrip, which the enemy
had been constructing at the far end
of the 6-by-1 -10-mile isle
The captured Labuan strip was
bomb -pitted and knee deep in lush
jungle grass, but Australian en-
gineers went to work Immediately
and expected to have it in oper-
alton quickly.
The broad expanse of Brunei Bay
itself was a major Allied prize. Al
most completely landlocked, it gives
secure anchorage within 300 miles
OF Singapore. The Japanese in
their heyday used 1t as a refueling
place for their fleet.
