Dismal Swamp Proposed
As National Forest
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va, Feb. IA dele
cation from the Izaak Walton
League of Norfolk was to appear
before the State Conservation Com
mission today to urge the CONVEX
sion of Dismal Swamp, in Norfolk
and Nansemond Counties, into a
national forest.
The plan to be urged before the
commission includes the setting
aside of 100000 acres of the swamp
for administration under the United
States Forest Service. If it is sue
cessful, the Federal Government
then would bear the cost of fire con-
troll in the area and finance the
building of highways and the
and reforestation pro-
grams for the swamp.
Ultimately, it is hoped that Dismal
Swamp will become vast game pre-
serve, affording sportsmen large
accessible area for hunting and
fishing.

u. 5. Pay Boost Bill
Faces Many Months
Delay Pending Study
By JOSEPH YOUNG.

Delay of at least several months
in consideration of the proposed bill
to provide base pay increases for
Government employees was seen to-
day as House Civil Service Commit
tee investigators reported it would
take weeks to complete their study
of the Federal wage structure as re-
quested by President Roosevelt.
The administrations pay adjust
ment bill has not yet been introduced
in Congress, although Mr.. Roosevelt
asked for enactment of regular time
half overtime for Federal
workers and complete study of the
Government wage scale with a view
to correcting salary inequities.
Chairman Ramspeck of the House
Civil Service Committee said the
committee would not start hearings
on the proposed pay bill until its
special investigating unit completes
the pay structure study.
Earlier it had been reported the
administration pay bill would be
sent to Congress this week, but
White House sources said today it
was indefinite" when the, measure,
would be introduced. #
The bill, it is expected, will call
for full overtime pay instead of the
time -and-a-sixth that most Gov
ernment workers now receive,
uniform night differential and a re-
duction of waiting periods between
in-grade promotions. These pro-
visions have been recommended by
the Civil Service Commission
Whether the base pay increase
expected to be in line with the Little
Steel formula of Is per cent-will
be introduced with the rest of the
provisions or delayed until the
House Civil Service Committee COM
pletes its wage study is undecided.
Both Mr.. Ramspeck and Chair
man Downey of the Senate Civil
Service Committee have expr essed
approval of a wage increase for
Federal employees. Senator Downey
said he expects to introduce pay
bill in the Senate soon.
ocFcI dl UlilS CdiuiiS 1OI wage
boosts have already been filed in
Congress. A 25 per cent base SAL
ary increase for Federal employees
has been proposed in measures in
troduced by Representatives Clason
Republican, and Lane, Democrat,
both Of Massachusetts,.
Government employees who come
under the Classification Act have
not received salary increases since
the war began.
