Senate Passage of
Postal Workers
Pay Bill Predicted
WASHINGTON, UP—Sen. Carl
son (R-Kan) predicted Saturday
that Senate Democratic leaders
will push thru a bill raising pay
of the 500,000 postal wbrkers be
fore this session of Congress ends.
He said Republicans expect
such a move will be made in an
effort to embarrass President Ei
senhower, who has announced
strong disapproval of the bill.
- He told a reporter he was sure
it would not become law. How
ever, if it is sent to the White
House in time to force the Presi
dent to veto it before Congress
adjourns, there would be an op
portunity to try to override the
veto.
Eisenhower killed federal em
ploye pay bills in his first term,
but not until after Congress had
quit.
The House already passed last
month by a 379-38 vote, a bill
raising the pay of the postal em
ployes $546 a year. The annual
cost would be about $280 million.
The Senate Postoffice and Civil
Service Committee, on which
Carlson is senior Republican
member, has approved a differ
ent measure for the postal em
ployes.
It would provide across-the
board increases of 7 Vz percent
plus temporary cost-of-living ad
justments running from $80 to
$240 for workers in the bottom
seven grades of the postal service,
i The annual cost of this is esti
mated at $270 million to $300
million.
