And among Joseph Young.
the leaders in the fight for these
benefits were such Republicans as
Senator Taft of Ohio, who is
destined to play a larger role In
the next Congress.
Another reason is the view that
with the national defense pro-
gram going full steam, there
won't be much opportunity to
decrease Federal employment
Rather, the trend is the other
way.
During the 80th Congress, seri-
GUS attempts were made to re-
duce Government personnel and
some cuts were made. However
these were not too substantial
And with the present national
emergency. the opportunity fol-
personnel cuts will be even less
although some attempts probably
will be made to hold down enl-
ployment in the non-defense
agencies.
Another factor is the record OF
the present Democratic 81st Con-
gress, which has stopped all per-
manent promotions and transfers
in Government for the rest of the
Fiscal year, and seriously con.
sidered reducing Federal en-
lployes annual and sick leave
benefits.
Some employe leaders feel thai
the new Congress might continue
the ban against permanent pro-
motions, but point out that thi:
wouldn't be any worse than tht
present situation. AS for the
threat to annual and sick leave
benefits, they point out that thi.
move was led, not by Republicans
but by two Democrats. Senator
Douglas of Illinois and Represen,
tatiye Thomas of Texas.
So, all in all, there doesn't seen
to be too much cause for appre
hension on the part of Fedora
workers. The threat against re
ducing annual and sick. leav
benefits still continues, but it
not of any greater proportion
