BROOKHART BILL
READY FOR HOOVER
Report of Conferees on Fed
eraI Pay Measure Is
Adopted by Senate.

The Senate today adopted without de-
bate the conference report on the
Brookhart bill granting additional pay
increases to large number of Gov
eminent employees, both in Washington
and in the field service, by correcting
inequalities growing out of the WEIGH
salary law of 1923.
The House having already approved
this report. the bill will be ready to go
70 the White House for signature today
or tomorrow.
The conference report was called up
by Chairman Dale of the Senate Civil
Service Committee, and his motion to
ratlfy it was agreed to by unanimous
consent, Representative Lehlbach of
New Jersey steered the bill through the
House. AS finally acted on the bill will
not be retroactive, but will apply only
from now on.
The Interpretation placed on the
WEIGH law resulted in some employees
receiving raises of $l20 and 5000 a
year, while others were increased only
$50 and 500. The general purpose of
this bill is to give an increase OF one
additional salary step within their re-
Spective grades to those employees who
were moved up only one step in 1928.
The bill also restores the authority
of the Personnel Classification Board
to review ALLEGATIONS of positions under
the classification law, subject to the
approval of the President.
1t has been estimated that this bill
Will result in salary increases amount
ing to approximately $1,500000.
