to the pay level of mechanics not
covered by the Classification Act.

50 to IS cents an hour. and head
charwomen from SIS to 10 cents.
Adjusts rates in other pay grades
Of the crafts. protective and custo-
dial service, but not above the 81 800
level.
The House passed the bill more
than three weeks ago and the Sen
ate Civil Service Committee had In
tended to offer several amendments
that would have required further
House action. Senator Mead, Dem
ocrat, of New York decided yester-
day, however, to put through the
House bill unchanged to avoid pos
sibility of tying the bill up in con-
ference until fall, in view of the pro-
gram of both houses to take q
