/ PosiaI Unit Criticism
I0f Retirement Bill
|Conplieaies Passage
By Joseph Young

Members of the Senate Civil
Service Committee are angered over
the action Of group of New York
postal employees in criticizing the
LANCER Chavez retirement bill as
inadequate, it was learned today
/. The New York group, known as
the Joint Conference of Postal EN-
fployes of Greater New York. COM
planned that the measure doesn't
grant large enough retirement bene-
fits to Government workers.
As result, Government employe
groups here! are fearful that the
bills ultimate chance of passage
will be considerably lessened unless
the damage is repaired. William
Doughetry, president of the AFL' S
National Association of Letter Car
riers. and other Government union
leaders stressed that they were be-
hind the Langer-Chavez measure
100 per cent"
Increases Benefits.
The union officials sharply criti-
ciZed the action of the New York
group and assured Chairman Lam
ger of the Senate Civil Service Com
mittee and his colleagues that they
were behind the committees bill.
The committees measure isn't as
liberal as the original bill drafted
by Senator LANCER and Senator
Chavez, Democrat, of New Mexico
but it does add substantially greater
benefits to the present civil service
retirement system.
Union officials here say they are
satisfied sit is the best possible. bill
that could be passed during this
session of Congress" and they are
extremely anxious to get it passed
They say they appreciate the time
and sympathy given by the commit
tee to liberalizing Federal retire
ment benefits.
| The trouble arose yesterday when
Senator Langer's group met in ex-
ecutive session to put the finishing
touches on the printed report of
the measure it finally approved last
week. Several Senators, obviously
angered. passed around clippings
from several New York papers which
quoted the New York employees
group. When they finished reading
the clips, their colleagues were OBJ
viously perturbed.
Chances Put at $3.50.
What particularly disturbs union
leaders is the rocky road that the
Ebill has already travelled. Approved
by the committee more than a
month ago, the measure was then
returned to the group for further
study, and finally was reapproved
last week after a months deadlock.
Union leaders realize that the
bills ultimate chance of passage is
only about $3.50 at best, and they
are afraid resentment on the part
of some of the Senators on the COM
mittee that reported the bill would
lessen the bills present chances.
They feel that the almost unani-
nous backing of the committee Is
needed to obtain Senate passage.
Then it will have to hurdle consid-
cradle opposition in the House.
