According to a Washington correspondent, the new Recon struction Finance Corporation has already collected a rather extensive and expensive staff, whose salaries and special fees now run from three-quar- ters of a million to a million dollars a year. No less than 122 employees draw S5,000 a year or more-most of them 9 great deal more. Salaries of $7,500, S1O,0OO, $12,000 and $15,000 are plentiful.
