REVISION OF GOVT.
SALARIES UNLIKELY

No general revision OF salaries for
Government employees need be expect
ed at this session OF Congress.
This is the talk that is going the
rounds in House and Senate Appro-
priations Committee circles. What Is
true Of Government employees gener-
ally is true also of District employees.
Indications are that one general
provision respecting pay increases
will be put through. eitheE on the leg
islative bill or otherwise.
The legislative subcommittee Of
the House Appropriations Committee.
headed by Congressman Byrns, is now
considering this subject. What it
does probably will be the standard for
the various appropriations measures.
The indications point to a recon-
mendation for another $120 increase
over basic pay, the same as now pro-
vided for by law. Members say the
increase will be at least this. but they
offer little encouragement to making
1t greater, and none at all for making
IL 81 day more, as asked by the Fed
eral employees.
As for the increases OF pay in the
District appropriation bill. it is
known there is opposition in subcom-
mittee to doing much with the spec
ific increases recommended by the
Commissioners and a disposition to be
guided by the general increase or
bonus which may be determined on
in the House Appropriations Commit
tee.
One OF the possibilities is that
Chairman Sherley will call a confer
ence of the chairmen OF various i'm
portant committees making appro-
priations in the House and Senate for
the purpose OF arriving at some con-
certed program as to pay increases.
Mr.. Sherley. however. has not call
ed such meeting, and he indicated
today he had no definite plans in
reference to II.
What Mr.. SherleS would like TO see
is strong Congressional commission
set TO work TO formulate a revised
and proper schedule of pay for Gov
ernment employees. He believes this
is the way to approach the subject.
and that the same committee should
consider a national budget.
