Payroll Simmer

In estimating the cost of the
proposed raises, the Civil Service
Commission assumed that the
total federal civilian employment
within the continental limits of
the United States would be APP
proximately 1000, 900 on June 80,
1864 decrease of about 100000
from VI Day
OF these 1000, 900 employees
about $50, 900 would be affected
by the increases. The other 1,140,-
900 would not be affected because
they have their own wage setups.
These excepted groups include
principally certain civilian en-
ployes of the War and Navy De-
partments; of some power prof.
Gets, such as IVA; of the FBI,
whose employees are not subject to
Civil Service, and virtually all
those connected with the Postal
Service. In general, workers en-
ployed outside the continental
United States would not be af-
fected.
Total Given
The total payroll, including the
proposed raise, of the $3.50, 900 per-
sons would be approximately ST.
Ala, 900, 000las of June 80, 1916, the
commission figures. This would
compare with a total payroll for
l,221 900 person in this category
of $3,565, 300, 900 as of July 81,
1945-which included overtime
payments.
The estimated cost of the 20 per
cent increase in the basic rates
of these 800, 900 workers would
total about $403, 900 a year.
Redistribution Proposed
Estimated annual cost of the
other proposed raises:
New classifications which would
permit certain professional, seien-
tific and administrative personnel
to earn up to $4,000 a year.
$500, 000, 900.
Heads and assistant heads of
executive departments = ST, AGO.
600.
Members of Congress-$5, $780,
900.
Judges-$2,8 $50, 900.
Total--$415, $50, 000.
Justification for the proposed
increases, says Civil Service Com
missioner Arthur S. F1emming, is
to compensate workers for in
creased living costs and "to make
the United States government
stand out as one of the most pro-
gressive employers in the nation,
and thus attract to its service and
hold in its service persons of out
standing qualifications"
