PAY BILL-The AFL Govern.
ment Employees Council, which rep
resents 100000 unionized Federal
workers. is lukewarm to the COM
promise Flanders Taft pay-raise
bill that is due for Senate action.
Principal objection of the council
lis to the sweeping classification act
changes proposed in the pay-raise
measure. First of all, its members
contend Congress hasn't had a
chance to study the proposals of
the Civil Service Commission. The
council contends the proposed
changes may contain inequities not
apparent on the surface.
Secondly, the council contends the
Classification Act revisions con-
tanned in the measure might kill
whatever little hope remains that
the House leadership will approve
general Federal pay raise bill. The
SooiASAA AdSOAo 4CC4doo1llCdtlOkl, Dut
wants it done next year.
Council members contend there
is an outside chance that the House
leadership might change its mind
and approve fiat pay increases for
all Federal workers. But they feel
the sweeping Classification Act
changes contained in the legislation
would give the leadership "a perfect
out" for refusing to consider the bill
on the grounds it is too far reaching
and comprehensive to be approved
without any study or hearings.
That's why the council contends
a fiat pay increase bill has the best
chance of passage and favors drop
ping the classification revision pro-
visions.
On the other hand, Senator Flan-
ders and his staff have worked long
and hard on the Classification Act
changes.
The Federal Classification Act
hasn't been changed since 1923 and
is badly in need of an overhauling.
Senator Flanders and his admins
trative assistant, Grover Ensley, as
well as the Civil Service Commits
sion, feel that a further pay raise
without revising the Classification
