Byrd Asks New Laws
To Speed U. 5. Firing

New legislation is needed to speed
up additional firing Of Government
employees, Senator Byrd, Democrat
Of Virginia, who is chairman Of the
Joint Committee on Reduction Of
Nom essential Federal Expenditures,
declared today.
Senator Byrd asserted that the
personnel ceiling quotas set up by
the last Congress to hasten Govern
ment demobilization Of personnel
will not bring about the decreases
necessary to q business-hke and
economical government"
Senator Byrd's committee released
figures showing that for the 18th
consecutive month since V-J day,
employment In Federal agencies, ex-
cluding the War and Navy Depart
ments, increased by 1902 during
October. However, the War and
Navy personnel reductions reduced
the total Federal employment figure
by 80 1856.
Some of the increases in employ
ment cited by Senator Byrd's COM
mittee occurred In the Veterans
Administration where 12,164 en-
ployes were hired during the past
month, and in War Assets Admins
tration which added 1852 workers.
Under the ceiling limitations set
up by Congress the Federal pay roll
must be cut to 1911 900 employees by
next July. Civil Service Commission
figures place the present continental
Federal employment at about 200,
900 employees. Senator Byrd's COM
mitSee, including overseas employees
puts the figure at 2,44l 900 Fedora
workers.
