Pay Measure 1 -i' - r-..J nriinn riirHinxi i WASHINGTON ii Major ity Leader Lucas (D-Ill) says the Senate will consider a House- ap proved pay boost for the military services before the present session ends. -I am certain the military pay bill will come up for action but I can't say when that will be," Lucas tod a reporter. Chairman Tydings (D-Md) of the Senate Armed Services Com- mitttee also has pledged action on the measure, which would raise the pay of most of the 1.600,000 men and women in the uniformed services. Previously, Tydings had ques tioned Senate action until both the House and Senate agreed upon a ratification measure that now lacks only President Truman's sig nature. Senator Knowland (R-Cal), a member of the Armed Services Committee, told a reporter he ex pect the Senate to "pass-the bill unless they start loading it down with amendments." . Some senators have threatened to attach pay boosts for civilian government employes to the mili tary bill. As passed by the House the measure would add an estimated $302 million to annual pay for the armed services, although the first year costa would be about $273 million. The pay boosts would go to the uniformed personnel of the Army, Navy, Air Forces, Marines, Coast Guard, Coast and Geodetic Sur vey and Public Health Service.
