NE|THERCALLED
ESSENTIAL,
HOWEVER
Might Enjoy a Vacation, But
Fear Difficulty in Getting
Old Pay

Government employees prefer
. 30-day furlough without pay
to a cut in salary, but still
are not convinced that either
is essential to budget-balanc-
ing.
This was the concensus
found this week in a survey
by The Times among the
subordinate personnel of the
various departments.
Coming to a head this week,
the long-brewing expense-cutting
storm gave Uncle Sans employees
something definite to talk about,
and this has been the subject Of
practically every conversation in
offices, corridors and over lunch
tables.
The furIough is preferred for
two main reasons, the employees
contend: .
!. It would mean their total
years pay would be cut one
twelfth, but they would have a
month extra of vacation time
which they could enjoy, whereas if
they take a pay cut they must
work the whole year just the same,
except for their 60-day dual leave.
2. It is felt that once salaries
are cut, raising them back to their
present level will not only be diff
cult and take long time, but the
positive legislation and improve
rnents long sponsored by the en-
ployeS will be delayed that much.
Restoring the salaries to their
present levels will be considered
by legislators as a favor instead
Of mere restitution, the employees
fear.
1t was also reminded this week
by several Government workers
that when Roosevelt was Presi-
dent, the hours of Federal en-
ployeS were from 9 to 4, and as "a
temporary measure" the working
day was extended to 4:30 o'clock.
This temporary" measure still
persists, it was pointed out.

LEAGUE FAVQRS
FURLOUGHS

Among the groups appearing
this week before the House Eco,
nomy Committee to testify re
garding the proposed personnel
economy moves, were a score of
members of the League of the
American Civil Service, led by
Mrs. Margaret Hopkins Worrell,
president.
Although protesting either a
wage cut or a furlough without
pay for Government employees,
the group told the committee that
the furlough was preferable, and
that the question of favoritism
advanced against the furlough
could be eliminated by the fol
lowing wording:
Each and every Federal en-
plOyee shall be furloughed for
30 days, no more and no less,
at some time during the fiscal
year 1888. Said furIOugh shall
be without pay and may be
taken in days, weeks, or the
entire time as best suited to the
empIOye and the work of his
office"
President Worrell also added:
THE pay of per diem employees
can be worked out on the same
equitable basis. May we also
request that neither the grant.
ed sick nor annual leave be dis
turbed, since the records Of the
departments show that neither
has been abused. The average
sick leave taken by employees Is
only 7.O6 days per annum, while
the average annual leave taken
Is only 24.6 days."
