Senator Will Ask Higher Pay for
Federal Employes; Administration
Would Reduce Number on Payroll
WASHINGTON, UFI—A Demo
cratic senator sought a new pay
raise for federal employe^ Tues
day, even as the administration
moved to trim the number of
workers on its rolls.
Sen. Olin D. Johnson <D-SC>,
chairman of a Senate committee
which handles such legislation,
predicted the next Congress will
vote the pay increase.
Johnston, in an address, said
he is appointing a special study
group to consider the need for
another pay raise for federal em
ployes early next year.
He said living costs have been
in an “upward spiral” since Con
gress in 1955 voted pay‘boosts of
about 7.5 percent for federal
workers under civil service, and
6 to 8.1 percent for postal workers.
He predicted a pay bill would
be passed and “it will not be
vetoed by the President, because
we will then have a Democratic
President in the White House.
Nome Republican Club
To Hear Bob Atwood
At Meeting Tonight
The Nome Republican Club in
vites the public to a special meet
ing this evening at the City Hall
at 8 o'clock.
Special speaker will be Bob
Atwood, Republican candidate tor
the U.g. Senate under the Alaska
Tennessee Plan.
He will explain many phases of
the importance of voting on this
part of the election.
W.W. Laws will also report on
his trip as delegate to the Re
publican convention at San Fran
cisco.
The release of Johnston’s ad
dress last night coincided with a
directive from Budget Director
Percival F. Brundage, designed
to cut government costs by reduc
ing the number of workers. He
urged agency heads to check
carefully the need of replacing
employes who retire, and to let
the jobs go unfilled if possible.
Rep. Davis (D-Ga), chairman of
a House subcommittee on man
power, made a similar suggestion
Aug. 18. He predicted then that
50,000 employes would retire in
the two months after Nov. 1,
when a new and more liberal pen
sion program becomes effective.
