GI Leave Pay Bill Passes; President Expected to Sign

Along with yesterday's showers came equally refreshing news to University veterans in an announcement that the Senate and House have passed a $2,431,000,000 GI terminal leave pay bill and sent it to the White House. President Truman is expected to sign it.

The bill provides that most World War II veterans receive five-year government bonds in payment for leave and furlough time for which they were eligible but which was not granted. Payments would average about $165 per veteran.
