Governor Asks Pension Raiise Message To Legislature ProposesAid Change LANSING, Feb. 12.-(-P)-Liberal- ization of the old age assistance pro- gram was proposed to the legisla- ture by Governor Van Wagoner to- day in a special message calling for action on 17 new bills. Legislative observers said a deci- sions in the Senate to sidetrack, at least temporarily, a planned investi- gation of Unemployment Compensa- tion Commission and liberalization of the commission's program was due partly to the new avalanche of bills. Van Wagoner asked $1,600,000 be appropriated by the current special session to increase old age assistance benefits and those for mothers of dependent children. The Governor asserted the increase would permit old age assistance pay- ments to be raised from an average of $18.15 per month to an average of $20 a month. "This,'" the man said, "is strictly a job for guys with guts. No others need apply." Yet without solicitation, almost without fanfare, 600 men have ap- plied. They are willing to risk death as members of the city's bomb dis- posal squads. InLondon, they call them "suicide squads." That will give you an idea. Their task is to dig up unexploded bombs which an enemy may some day unload over this sprawling city, biggest on the Pacific coast. The missiles may be duds, harmless as hot water bottles. Or they may be delayed action bombs, ready to blast anyone nearby ,into eternity. Deputy Police Chief Homer B. Cross is in general charge of the organization. Each police precinct will have its own squad, in command of detectives trained for years to handle a different type'of bomb- the kind agitators or cranks might have fashioned. Aside from the police commanders, the squads will be made up of volun- teers-civilians with steel nerves and plenty of intestinal fortitude. They'll be on call the minute an air raid siren sounds, ready to speed to the spot where an unexpected bomb has dropped, dig it out, load it on a cart and hustle it to an iso- lated disposal ground. Hollywood and West Los Angeles volunteers include virtually all of the movies' stunt men, members of that exclusive club to which death defi- ance is an every-day proposition. They're valued not only for their New Merger IApproved By SDDMeeting The Michigan Chapter of the Stu- dent Defenders of Democracy voted yesterday to follow its parent organ- ization into the Student League of America. In voting to merge with the newly- formed national progressive organ- ization, SDD accepted fully the con- stitution and program written at the National Student Merger Conven- tion, where the formation of the Student League of America took place during the Christmas recess. The program of the Student League of America stresses first and fore- most the winning of the war in which we are now engaged. Also emphasized is the maintenance of our democratic rights and privileges in the course of the war, and the formation of a world-wide demo- cratic federation. _: Domestic problems are not, how- ever, neglected in the program. Great importance is laid to the con- tinuance of social and economic gains, and to further measures in the same direction. With its entrance into the Stu- dent League of America, SDD be- comes part of a nation-wide student organization, embracing such youth groups as the Student League for Progressive Action and the College Division of the Committee to Defend America. Michigan Section Of AICE To Hear Professor Dow The Michigan section of the Ameri- can Institute of Civil Engineers will meet Tuesday, Feb. 17, at 8 p.m. in the Rackham Building to hear a talk by Prof. W. G. Dow of the electrical engineering department. Professor Dow, who has written a text on Electrionics and who is now engaged in confidential defense re- search work, will talk on the subject, "Electrinics and Industrial Applica- tion." Refreshments and a short business meeting will follow his talk. The Lansing student chapter of the AIEE will come to Ann Arbor and attend the meeting as guests of the University's student group. They will be shown through the engineer- ing college laboratories and will be guests at a dinner in the Union that evening. Guts' Get Job ng Suicide Squad courage, but for their ability to think fiast, react instantly. "Hollywood bomber squads," they have named themselves. "Sure it's dangerous," said Buddy Roosevelt, a movie stunter who has been cheating death for years. "So what? We're used to that. And believe me, son, when your number's up it'll get you anyway." Guts is right, Chief Cross. Forest Fire Control Work To Be Taught Three opportunities exist in the West for men interested in forest fire control work this summer, Dean S. T. Dana of the School of Forestry and Conservation announced yesterday. The first training opportunity is at Oregon State College which will take men of upper high school age and college students into a group called the "Oregon Red-Hats." This three year old organization will give the men intensive forestry training, pro- viding they are in good physical con- dition and are willing to abide by a low basic rate of pay in camp, gamb- ling on being frequently called to fight fires at good wages. Basic pay will be $30 per month for high school men and $50 per month for college students in addition to board and lodging. Travel expenses to and from the camp must be borne by the applicants. A similar school near Missoula, Mont., will probably be conducted for the Inland Empire forest region, Dean Dana pointed out. In this case, an announcement will be made later. A third opportunity for summer employment exists with the Regional Forest Service Headquarters at Mis- soula, Mont., said Dana, which wants husky college students for full sum- iner work manning forest fire look- out stations, fighting white pine blis- ter rust, and reducing fire hazard in sale areas of timber. Men accepting these jobs will be expected to be on call for fire fighting service. Wages will range from $125 to $140 per month. Further information may be se- cured from the Registrar's Office of the School of Forestry and Conser- vation, Room 2048 Natural Science Building until the 25th of this month. Pension Plan May Be Killed Retirement Scheme Scored By Congressmen WASHINGTON, Feb. 12. -()- A new move for quick repeal of legis- lation granting retirement pay to members of Congress was launched today by Representative Nichols (Dem.-Okla.). The Oklahoman said he expected to have at least 250 signaturesr-more than a majority-by next Tuesday night on a petition urging the Civil Service Committee to bring to the floor a repeal bill now pending. "I am convinced that if a major- ity of the members of the House sign the petition, the Civil Service Com- mittee will be compelled to heed their demands," he said. On the House floor, the campaign of daily speeches against the pen- sion act continued. Representative Knutson (Rep.-Minn.) concluded his criticism with the remark: "If there's anything in the world more cowardly than a Congressman, it's two Congressmen." Marley Speaks Today On 'Arming For Peace' Definite techniques for the estab- lishment of a lasting peace and methods of correcting the effects of war's impact on the world will be thesubject of a talk, "Arming for Peace," by The Rev.
