23.-Republican National Chair.
man Guy Gabrielson launched the
party's 1850 vote getting cam
paign today with the assertion
that Americans Fundamentally
agree with the objectives" OF
Senator Mccarthy Of Wisconsin
Mr.. Gabrielson opened a two
day meeting of Republican lead
ers from Maine to Florida. The
gathering-most of 1t in closed
sessions the first Of three" shirt
sleeve" organizational meetings
aimed at getting out the Repub-
lican vote this fall.
Senator Mccarthy. who has
charged the State Department is
Communist -infiltrated, has re
ceived great support in the coun-
try generally" Mr.. Gabrielson told
newsmen before the meeting con-
vened.
Says Doubt Is Cast.
From my survey" he said, "the
trend of opinion is that the peo-
pie wholeheartedly agree with the
objectives Mccarthy is after. and
he has cast doubt on whether the
Government has come clean with
trying to rid itself Of disloyalty. y
1t was the first time Mr.. Gabriel
son had voiced his opinion on the
Nations reaction to the Wiscon-
sin Republicans charges.
II don't think" the COP chair
man added, that the average per-
son is close enough to know or
care about the methods (employed
by Senator Mccarthy. Certainly
his detectives have received great
support in the country generally -

Mr. GaDrleiSon mace no COM
ment on views expressed Wednes-
day by Gov. Alfred z. Driscoll OF
New Jersey, who wired him tc
say: II cannot condone methods
that in the name of patriotism
may contribute to the destruction
of our form Of government"
Gov. Driscoll is the only gov
ernor attending the meeting. Five
other Republican governors, in
cluding James H. Duff of Penn
sylvania and Thomas E. Dewey OF
New York. said they could not at
tend because the meeting followed
too closely the Governors Confer
ence at White Sulphur Springs,

A luncheon address by Gov
Driscoll was the only event not

day. A general open session is

several types of duties.
There are thousands of such
workers in Government. For ex-
ample, some employees do both
clerical and accounting work. Or
! they may do both auditing and
statistical work. or stenographio
and shorthand reporting duties.
Provisions Explained.
These employees now are paid the
rate Of salary for whichever type
Of work pays the most none.
provided they spend at least IS
per cent of their time at that
type Of work.
The commissions new ruling.
however. provides that the en-
ployes may be paid only the salary
for the type OF work that takes
most Of their time.
This means a reduction in salary
for many employees engaged in
dual-type OF work for the Govern
ment.
Commission officials estimate
that approximately 100000 Gov
eminent employees are affected by
the order. both here and in the
field.
The commissions new order has
brought an immediate storm Of
protest from personnel officials in
the various Government agencies.
They declare 1t will penalize many
employees who do valuable work
and that the order will result In
many administrative difficulties.
Discussion Scheduled.
Commission officials have agreed
to discuss the matter with Gov
ernment personnel offlcials next
week
Federal personnel officials have
suggested q six-rnonth trial period
for the new policy. during which
time the agencies could see how
the new regulations would work
out. They suggest that, during
this time, the agencies have the
right not to reduce an employe'S q
salary. II it's felt 1t would not be
good administrative policy. Com
mission officials have agreed to
take this proposal under advise
ment.
