House Okays Bill to Boost Servicemen's Pay

WASHINGTON, (P) - Th e House passed and sent to the Senate Thursday a bill raising the pay of servicemen nearly half a billion dollars annually.
 The bill is a compromise of different versions previously passed by the Senate and the House. It still requires Senate ap- proval before going to the Presi- dent. If it becomes law by May 31, the raises for 31s million ser vice personnel will become effec- tive with the May payrolls.
 The proposed increases range from $3 monthly for Privates and Seamen to $65 for two-star Gen erals and Admirals. They are in- tended to help offset higher living costs.
 Omitted is Senate voted amendment to give an extra $45 monthly to men who are fighting in or who have fought in Korea. The House Armed Services Com mittee is expected to consider Korea combat pay soon as a sep arate measure.

All dutIlldpiC AudIfty OA CNSAJ good student is the spirit of ad- venture to discover new truths in their various fields of study. It is this quality which leads to civil ization's advancement. It is the accumulated knowledge of the past, called our social heritage plus present discoveries which leads to progress.
 A good illustration of the spirit of adventure in the field of ex- ploration, can be found in one of our own pioneers, MT. Aarnout Castel. He turned out to be one of the most capable mariners of the Arctic Ocean.
 He was born in Holland and like his ancestors before him, he longed for a life on the sea. Both he and his brother became sail ors. He sailed the seven seas at the beginning of the present cen tury. He went whaling in the Arc tic Ocean at an early date and thus became acquainted with the Arctic.
 Tn 1913 MT. Castel joined the famous StefanSson Arctic Expedi- ton. MT. Vilhjalmer Stefansson gave high praise for the ability of Castel and mentioned his work in the advance party frequently in his book, "The Friendly Arctic" '" Tn that book he mentions new land discovered in the far north by MT. Castel and that a bay was named after him.
 The past two weeks have been very eventful to all of the stu dents because of the numerous activities preceding graduation. The Junior-Senior Banquet was held at the Pioneer Igloo and was a great success. The Baccalaureate Service last Sunday evening was we'll attended.
 Our final examinations were held on Tuesday and Wednesday. Relaxation from examinations came on picnic day, Thursday.
 Graduation takes place tonight at 8 o'clock at the High School auditorium. We now bid farewell to alma mater, teachers, class mates and friends.

French 10 Remove
Iunisian Curfew
BY the Associated Press

TUT MS, Tunisia, April 4. -
French authorities said today they
will lift the curfew in Tunisia to-
morrow. and perhaps soon lift
other controls clamped on this
uneasy North African protecto-
rate.
The curfew was imposed last
week when the French declared
martial law and has kept Tu-

to 5 am.
The French said they are in
creasingly optimistic that the
crisis. which has cost more than
100 lives in bloody rioting in the
past few months. will be settled
soon. The Tunisians want indie
pendence.
The French said Premier Salah
Eddine Ben Mohammed Baccou-
che would shortly announce sue
cess in forming a Tunisian cabi-
net. and also said they didn't
think the raising Of Tunisia's case
before the U. N. security council
would have any effect one way
or the other on his negotiations.
The country has been calm for
the last two days, the French SAID.
and they may shortly release for
mer Premier Mohammed Chenik
and other ministers and national
list leaders who have been arrested
and deported to the South.

In addition. 41.000 telephone
workers in Ohio, Michigan and

Mr.. Chapman had hoped to

MIR. Ford promised to get in
