LET'S HOPE SO-Here's some
gooG news for Government en-
ployes:
Representative Miller, Democrat
of California, one of the most in
fluential and employe-minded men,
bers of the House Civil Service Com
mittee, says he intends to remain on
the committee.
There nave been reports that Mr.
Miller would leave the committee to
take another assignment-probably
the House Labor Committee.
But Mr.. Miller says he prefers to
stay on the House Civil Service
Committee. where he is one of the
three top men. During his tenure
on the group, Mr.. Miller has played
a leading role in the enactment of
all beneficial Government employees
Legislation.
If the Democratic leadership in
sists on Mr.. Miller taking the Labor
post, he will do so. But Mr. Miller
says he will make it plain that he
wants to stay where he is and that
he doesn't want the Labor Commit
tee assignment.
Meanwhile, another top-ranking
committee member, who has been
very friendly to Government en-
ployes legislation, Representative
John Lyle, Democrat, of Texas has
very good chance to become a
member of the House Rules Com
mittee. If this happens he'll have
to leave the civil service group.
