Federal Employees Seek to
Kill "Immediate" Provi-
sion in House Bill.

The National Federation of Federal
Employees today began waging a de-
termined fight in the Senate to kill the
provision Of the House economy bill
calling for immediate retirement of
superannuated Federal employees.
The federation proposes that a bill to
permit voluntary retirement at the age
of so, after 80 years service, be sub
Stituted for the compulsory measure.
The section now in the economy bill,
the federation said, would affect 3.44O
employees now receiving 8,102, ,288 SO in
salaries. Luther c. Steward, president
said he believed greater savings could
be effected If the alternate proposal
were substituted, and that it would also
do away with the necessity of replacing
many key employees who would be
arbitrarily forced out unoer the present
bill.
