Parks Employees
Ruled Eligible
For Pay Raise
Increase Refused
Workers in Deeds
Recorders Office

Controller General Lindsay War
rem has ruled that 164 employees Of
National Capital Parks, who are
paid by the District Government,
are entitled to the $3.50 a year Fed
eral pay raise, it was learned today.
Assistant Budget Officer William
G. Wilding said the Controller Gen.
erals decision was made July 80.
The 78 members of the Park Police
force stationed here are not affected
by the ruling, he said.
Meanwhile, the Controller General
ruled yesterday that the 81 en-
ployes of the Recorder of Deeds
Office are not eligible for the pay
increase. The Eightieth Congress
rushed the $3.50 pay raise through in
the closing days of the regular ses-
sion, granting salary increases to
Federal workers but excluding Dis
trict employees.
Since then, the Commissioners
have asked the Controller General
for rulings on whether sic District
employees in various agencies, paid
in whole or in part by Federal funds,
are eligible.
The Controller General ruled last
month that 134 employees of the
National Geological Park and Is
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission employees, who are paid
from District funds, are eligible for
the raise.
Still being considered for possible
inclusion are employees of such
fringe" agencies as the Washington
Aqueduct, National Guard, Register
of Wills, the Probation System and
the Columbia Hospital and Lying-in
Asylum.
