Indignation over some Of the
alleged inequalities of the
AWelch pay act is growing in
certain quarters of the Govern
ment service as the date ap-
proaches on which the new pay
schedules in the act become ef-
fective.
The dissatisfaction is particularly
apparent among lower paid clerks
Ia the Government service as they
realize that in many cases mes
nengers, doing office boy work, viii
gef higher salaries than they will.
Many typists, filing clerks, money
counters and other employees doing
clerical work in Grade I OF the
clerical, administrative and fiscal
service, are indignant that some Of
the messengers are to get as much
IS 500 q year more than they are.
SALARY Grades Overlap
Under the Welch bill these clerks
will work in q grade where The
salary range is from $1;260 to
1850. Messengers work under a
salary range from $1,000 to $1,000.
Thus many messengers, who have
been In the Government service for
only q few years will get more
than the more or less trained
clerks.
This situation results from the
special consideration given by Con.
gress IN the WeIch bill to employees
Of the custodia1 services. Employees
OF this service made a deep iIn-
preston on the House Civil Ser
vice Committee when they came
from ALI over the country with
stories Of privation and want and
told the committee of their strug-
gles to live deeently and honestly
On inadequate wages.
As. result Congress gave these
employees bigger raises in proper
fion to their salaries than any
other employees in the service.
Now money counters in the
/ Treasury Department find them
selves IN some cases working for
less money than the messengers
who carry the money to them to
count.
Bureau chiefs, while admitting
that the unscientific adjustment in
salary raises has resulted in bunch
ing together the salaries Of EN-.
pioyes doing greatly different kinds
Of work, are not unduly alarmed
over the situation.
They point out that only mes
sengers VINO have worked for the
government for years will get the
maximum of $1,000. These men,
ia many cases, they say, are more
than mere messengers. Some of
them have posts where they
frequently come into contact with
confidential information and have
Jobs which carry more responsibility
than do the lower salaried clerical
positions.
And in many cases, the chiefs
say. these men can go no higher
than 81 500, while clerks who start
At a lowly $l.26O can work them
selves up into positions paying
inany hundreds more than that.
The Washington times., 1928-06-29

Boiling Field communicated its
desire for a fire chief to the United
States Civil Service Commission and
the latter organization has am
nounced ain opening competitive eX-
animation to fill the office. The

gines, and the use AMI care of

tions of plant for fire hazards and
will have charge of all fire appa-
ratus and equipment IN the event
