It came as both the house and senate military committees were scheduled to vote on whether to extend selective service beyond May 15. Army willingness to accept the compromise was disclosed by members of the house committee shortly after Rep. Carl Vinson (D. Ga.) introduced a bill to set up a $3,000,000 recruiting campaign and suspend inductions six months to give it a chance to work: Committee members said the army wanted to keep the draft act on the books.

TWO: The compromise was coupled with a pay increase of either 20 per cent or $400 a year for service personnel. House Democratic Whip John J Sparkman (Ala) said he was “certain” the army would accept the compromise. Rep. Sparkman has been leading the‘*fight in committee for the full year's draft extension requested by the army. The compromise was patterned after a proposal by Rep. Forrest A. Harness (R. Ind.).

The plan was one of several offered in lieu of the politically-dis-tasteful alternative of extending the draft in an election year. Another would extend the draft but exempt youths between the ages of 18 and 21. Many congressmen favored .| trying the volunteer plan, however. Rep. Vinson’s proposal for an intensive recruiting drive also would include generous pay increases. These would range from 30 per cent for master sergeants to a full 100 per cent for buck privates. That would boost a private's pay from $50 to $100 a month. The recruiting program would run six months until Nov, 15. If this —plus the higher pay-—{failed to attract sufficient volunteers, the President could declare that the national emergency existed and invoke the draft for one year until Nov. 15, 1947.

In an address before the Scientech club yesterday, Otto K. Jensen, executive director of the commission, declared that deterioration of older property within a mile and a half of Monument Circle and construction of substandard houses lower the city's tax income and keep the cost of municipal services high. While older property tends. to lower values of residences within the city, new substandard homes
‘are ruining values of housing on

the construction of substantial houses to alleviate the present housing problem, _It was hoped, these officials pointed out, that these present residences would be reconverted to garages and similar structures after the present crisis.
TOWING OF FIGHTER
PLANE IS DELAYED
The navy's first peacetime effort to tow a single-engine fighter trainer plane from Municipal airport to the Anacostia naval air base in Washington, D. C., was postponed today. * A PBY Catalina bomber, scheduled to arrive here and do the towing, was grounded in Johnsonville, Pa., because of inclement weather. Lt. (J. g.) Michael H. Krouse, pilot, landed the trainer-plane here a week ago when oil spilled on the cowling during a routine flight from Toledo, O. Repairs were attempted here by
time and personnel by having the plane towed to Washington. Navy officials here said the tow operation probably would be held tomorrow.
