UP A steady increase in the state's crime rate during the next 10 to 15 years was forecast Thursday by the chairman of the police science de partment at Washington State Col lege. Dr. V. A. Leonard said Wash ington's growing population, its in dustrial expansion and the develop ment of the Columbia VMsin will be major causes of an upswing in crime. Dr. leonard. in a speech pre pared for the Washington Proba tion and Parole Assn. convention, said the state's crime rate is sec ond only to California now among Pacific Coast states. He said crime rates on the coast are higher than the national average. The migratory character of a large segment of Washington's population in the last 60 years was probably a strong factor in the high crime rate in the state, he said.

Veto Looms on Postal Pay Bill ' WASHINGTON fUPl-Presidcnt Eisenhower today appeared to hold the key to whether a half-million postal workers will get a pay raise. Both sides agreed that Mr. Eis enhower could effectively scuttle any wage increase this year if he carries out his implied threat to veto any bill providing an increase greater than 7.6 per cent. The House Ignored the threat Wednesday and approved an 8.2 per cent boost. Republican leaders said bluntly that the President would veto the measure. But Democratic leaders scoffed at the idea, saying that Mr. Eisenhower would never veto an 8.2 per cent bill after indicating a willingness to approve a 7.6 per cent measure The House agreed Wednesday to a Democratic-led move to hike the pay raise from the average 7.6 per cent approved by the House Post Office Committee.
