VIC I1OIOhs OH
archeologist friend of mine, first
made me aware of this. We
were talking about his work and
he said casually that every
tomb he'd ever dug into was
supposed to have a curse on it.
II certainly don't believe in
curses" he added emphatically,
"but it's no wonder the stories
get started. You see, it's
mighty hard to keep from being
scratched when we're excavating
and any wound sustained in
those surroundings may, result
and has, in fact, often re-
sulted-in serious, even fatal,
infections.
Then why do you keep going
all over the world to search out
new tombs and more chances to
risk your life?" I demanded, rea-
sonably thought.
For the sake of that wonder
full moment when you flash your
electric torch upon something
that nobody has seen for 1000
years." he answered. his eyes
shining. For that you dare all
things, even when you are much
afraid"

fingers off both hands and almost

me: I'm my worst moments of
anguish, I seemed to discover
the deep significance of exist
ence of which until then I'd been
unaware. The marks of the Or
deal are apparent on my body
but / gained the assurance and
serenity of a man who has full
filled himself. Never had I felt
happiness like that, so intense
and yet so pure"
A few years ago I talked to
Constance and Harmon Hell
mericks just after they came
back from the Arctic where they
had lived in the wilderness for
year without seeing another
human being. At one time they
ran out of food and Harmon
was sick besides. Just when it
looked as if they might actually
starve, they shot a moose.
Its surprising" Connie told
me, "how quickly a person re-
covers from such an ordeal and
then how unusually well he be-
gins to feel and how perfectly
amazingly glorious the whole
world looks. We were filthy and
in rags, but how minor, how
unnoticeable are the humilia-
tionS of the body when the soul
is gazing at sublime beauty!
Suddenly we were so happy it
seemed as though we would
burst"
Thinking about these en-
counters with men and women
who have greatly dared I'm
struck afresh by their exultation
at conquering adverse conditions.
I've known fierce joy, too. at
accomplishment though mine
seems paltry compared to theirs.
But I comfort myself humbly
with the reflection that a lift
of the spirit will come to any,
body who persists toward a
worthy goal. even a minor one.

Silent Night Hymn
Is Often Called
Song From Heaven

"Silent Night" is often called the
''Song from Heaven" because the
story of its inspiration and COM
position is one of the most beauti-
full Christmas stories in existence.
On December "a, 1918. in the
Austrian village of Hallein, as
Father Joseph Mohr sat reading
his Bible. there was a knock at his
door. 1t was peasant woman who
wanted the priest to visit a poor
charcoal-maker's wife to whom a
child had been born. The parents
had sent her to ask the priest to
come and bless the infant.
Father Mohr was strangely
moved by the visit to the mother
And that evening as he returned to
his home saw that the dark slopes
of the Alps around the village were

taineers on their way to church.
To him it was a Christmas mira
Gle.
Later, as he tried to put down
on paper his feeling and expert
ence, the words kept turning into
verse. When dawn came he found
he had written a poem-a beau
tiful and moving poem.
On Christmas Dav his friend,
Franz Xaver Gruber, music teach
er in the village school, composed
music to fit the verses.
Village children heard the priest
and teacher singing the song and
learned it. From there it spread
throughout the world. Today, it is
regarded as the greatest Christ
mas hymn and wherever there are
men of good will they sing:
"Silent night, holy might

Round you Virgin, Mother and

Ben Gross, who conducts a

Mr.. Gross said cost Of the

French Brace for Attack
By Red Troops in Laos
BY the Assoeioisd Press

SAIGON, Indo- China, Jan. Z.
The French braced themselves
today to meet an expected at
tack in Laos from the Wet Mini
division which drove across Indo-
China to the Mekong River and
the Thailand border just before
Christmas.
The French said they believed
an assault in the Seno area, just
south of the rebels invasion
route, was imminent.
After almost two weeks of
quiet in the area. numerous pa
troll clashes have been reported
in the last 48 hours around Seno.
The French claimed they killed
169 troops Of the Communicated
Wet Mimi in one ambush.
Just north of the Laotian bor-
der, in Northwest Indo-China
French fighters and bombers
kept up their round-the- clock
attacks on roads and rebel sup
ply lines northeast of Dien Bien
Phu. Another attack is expected
there from $4,000 men of Wet
Mini Division 316 and thousands
from two other divisions that
have moved up on the big French
position.

Federal employe leaders is the
fact that both Chairman Carl
son and Rees of the Senate and
House Civil Service Committees
have promised that pay-raise
hearings will be held. Also, in
formal polls taken among mem
bers of the two committees in
dicate that a majority Of them
favor Federal pay raise, en-
ploye leaders say.
However, it remains to be seen
how much the administrator
lukewarm attitude will hurt the
salary increase drive in Congress.
Administration officials ad-
vance several reasons as to why
they don't feel a general Fed
eral pay boost would be feasible.
First, they say the national
economic picture is too clouded
right now to talk about a Fed
eral pay raise. Should the cur
rent recession become more
serious, it would tend to react
against any Government salary
increase, they say.
"They don't give pay raises to
Government workers when peo-
pie are out of jobs" one official
said.
Second, administration officials
say that cost-of-living figures
don't justify a general Govern
ment pay boost. They declare
that figures show that the aver

Queen Sees New Zealand
On WhistIe-St Tour
Rx fhs Associated pr...

HASTINGS. New Zealand. Jan.
Z. - Queen Elizabeth II went
whistle-stopping through New
Zealand today to show herself
and the Duke of Edinburgh to
the dominion countryfolk.
Her day and a half schedule
called for 460 miles on a bumpy
train.
Plans were made at each stop
for the train to pull up about
100 yards past a dais. The
Queen would walk to it from
the rear carriage in order to
give people a good chance to
see her.
The ride was a bumpy one be-
cause the train was rolling
through hilly country at nearly
SO miles an hour over the mar
row gauge tracks common to
New Zealand.
Before the train journey, the
Queen and her husband inspect
ed a pea cannery at Hastings.

Die, I Hurt in NavyP|ane
Crash in Panama JunqIe
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

PANAMA CITY, Panama. Jan.
7.-Seven men were killed and
seven injured in the flaming
crash of a United States Navy
Photographic plane in jungle
area near the Trans-Isthmian
highway last night. The four
engine plane was bringing a
photo reconnaissance platoon to
the Canal Zone area from Mira
mar. Calf.
Capt. William A. Thorn, COM
manding officer at the Coco Solo
Naval Base, announced the cas-
ualtieS. II ...
Capt. Thorn said it appeared
the plane had undershot by
2la miles its destination-France
Air Force Base near Colon, on
the Caribbean side of the 18TH
mus.
He said Levi Anderson and
JAMES Hyatt, two farmers living
near the crash area, did "heroic
service" in dragging several of
the injured men to safety from
the flaming wreckage. The sur
vivors were taken to Coco Solo
Naval Hospital with severe
burns.
Names of the casualties were
withheld pending notification of

age Federal salary has increased
more percentage wise since
1947 than has the cost-of Living.
The Civil Service Commission
has compiled figures showing
tnat the mean average" Federal
salary has risen 81 per cent since
1947, compared to 21.5 per
cent rise in the cost Of living
CSC officials favor a reclassi-
fication Of the Federal salary
act, whereby the $14.80O pay
ceiling would be increased to a
higher figure. This would bene-
f1t the comparatively few en-
ployes in the upper brackets,
who would get sizable increases.
Most employees, however, would
get only minor increases-prob-
ably not more than $75 to 500.
csc officials say the series of
general Federal pay raises in the
last eight years has narrowed
greatly the salary spread in Gov
ernment, with the result that
employees in the lower and mid
die grades are closing in on the
upper-salary brackets. Employees
in the top bracket jobs haven't

say.
UNEMPLOYMENT BENE-
FITS-Top members of the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee have promised employe
leaders that they will hold early
hearings this year on legislation
to give unemployment compen-
sation benefits to Government
workers.
PENSION RIGHTS-Repre-
sentative Katharine st. George,
Republican of New York yester-
day sponsored a bill to deny
Federal pensions to Government
employees or members of Con-
gress who are convicted of fell

victed of crime involving dis
loyalty.
Under the bill pensions would
also be denied Federal employees
who refuse to answer questions
of congressional committees re-
garding loyalty or security mat

U. 5. EmpIoye Group
Backs Roth Appeal

The newly formed Committee
to Preserve the Civil Service
System last night voted to ap-
peal the Federal Court decision
in the Roth case which held
that civil service workers trans
ferred to excepted jobs do not
have job protection rights.
William c. Doherty, chairman
OF the committee and presi-
dent of the National Association
of Letter Carriers, declared the
group would give financial aid
in the appeal fight to Leo A.
Roth, the former Justice De-
partment attorney whose sum-
mary firing brought about the
test case.
Mr.. Doherty said the case
would be appealed to the United
States Court of Appeals.
AT last nights meeting held in
the Letter Carriers building at
100 Indiana avenue NV, a total
of 1925 was raised for the ap-
peals' fight. Mr.. Doherty said
he expected that considerably
more money would be raised in
the weeks ahead.
Other organizations represent
ed at the meeting were the In
ternational Fire Fighters Union,
the Postal Clerks Union, the AFL
Government Employees Council,
and the Association of Federal
Civil Service Separated Career
Employees.
Mr.. Doherty and other speak
ers also urged that Congress plug
loopholes in civil service laws
that were exposed by the Fed
eral court decision in the Roth
case.
