Severe Quake Noted,
Probably in Romania
BY the Associoted Press

WESTON, Mass, April 11.-A very
strong earthquake, probably in Ro-
mania, which seismologists said was
as severe as the one that caused
the recent tidal wave off Alaska, was
recorded at Weston College at 9:03.25
pm. (EST yesterday, the Rev.
Daniel Linehan, S. j., reported.
Father Linehan said a second
phase of the shock was recorded at
9:12.27 pm. and that the disturbance
was about 4,745 miles from Boston,
probably in Romania. 1t lasted
about three hours.
Franklin Institute in Philadelphia
reported it recorded an earth shock
at 9:03.35 pm. yesterday about 4,500
to 5000 miles away, presumably in
the Aleutian chain again" The in
tensity was a great deal less than
that preceding the tidal wave and it
appeared to be an after shock of the
Aleutian quake" said I. M. Levitt
of the institute.

Conferees Hold First Session
On u. S. Pay Bill; Delay Action
Discussion Scheduled Monday on Dirksen
Plan to Absorb Raises by Dismissnq Employees

House and Senate conferees on
the Federal pay bill held their
first session today, but postponed
the real battle over amounts and
conditions until next week.
At second session scheduled for
Monday morning, Representative
Dirksen, Republican, of Illinois, is
invited to appear to argue for final
enactment of his amendment to the
House bill, which would require the
Federal and District departments to
absorb the costs of the pay raise by
dismissal of the necessary number
of employees.
Should this amendment be dropped
from the new bill to be drawn by
the House and Senate managers, it
is reported that Senator Byrd,
Democrat of Virginia, one of the
conferees, is prepared to urge adop-
tion OF a substitute clause which also
would be directed at a required
reduction in total personnel.
Todays session was devoted large
ly to comparison of the terms and
language of the bill as passed by
the two houses. The Senate bill
calls for graduated pay raises
averaging II per cent. The House
bill substituted for this plan a fiat
s400 pay raise for all employees.
Representative Jackson, Demo-
crat, of Washington, chairman of
the House Civil Service Subcommit-
tee which drafted a liberal pay-raise
bill, said he had received reports from
the Government Accounting Office
