TION - Chairman-designate john
ston of the Senate Civil Service
Committee and Senator LANCER, Re-
publican, of North Dakota, who will
move over from the Craftsmanship to
become the groups ranking minority
leader, apparently plan to work
side by side in sponsoring Govern

It's expected both Senators will
jointly sponsor legislation to grant
unemployment compensation bene-
fits to Government employees The
measure already has the approval
of the White House
Both men also will probably team
up in sponsoring Government pay
legislation.

units in the ODC, but it's apparent
that additional employees will have
to be hired from the outside.
