be approximately the same size
as last summer. There will be 100
members in the actual production
with the possibility that from Is
to 20 musicians will be added.
Mr.. Green, Paul Massman, Bill
Vorenburg and others of the pro-
duction staff were not entirely
satisfied with the organ accom-
paniment for last years perform
ances. They are not quite sure
of an orchestral addition for this
season, but are reasonably GER
tain that it will be arranged.
1t is figured by the producers of
Faith of Our Fathers" that an
average of so per cent attendance
will take care of the budget for
this years show. They are re-
conciled to the loss of few per-
formances as result of rain, but
the overall of 81 performances is
calculated to provide a financial
safety factor. Last year 8 OF
Al scheduled performances were
lost by virtue of weather.
Everything is expected to be
better this season, if only because
the lessons of 1850 left every one
associated with the project wiser
and not sad at all.

First Session Ends
With Activity in Behalf
Of Federal Employees
BY Joseph Young .

Congress last night eased re-
strictions on Government promo
tions and job placements in the
final hours before adjournment.
The first session of the 82d Con-
gress wound up with a remarkably
active record on legislation for
Government employees. Most of
the activity on the employe bills
came during the final days of the
session.
Government pay raise bills of
$500 to $500 a year for classified
employees, and $400 to $500 for
postal workers, have been ap-
proved and sent to the White
House. The legislation affects
275,000 employees in the Washing
ton area, including Federal and
District government classified en-
ployes, police, firemen and school
teachers, postal workers as we'll
as legislative and judicial workers.
The raises are retroactive to July /.
Averages 9.4 Per Cent.
The raise for classified employees
and police. f1remen and teachers
ranges from $500 to $500 a year.
It averages 9.4 per cent.
For employees earning $4,000 to
$4,000 a year, a fiat 10 per cent
is added to the entrance rate of
their grade. The cash amount on
the opening step is carried over
to each within step Of the grade.
For example, the present en-
trance rate of grade 8 is $4,000.
The new schedule increases this
by 10 per cent, or $420. for a new
entrance rate of $4,620. And the
l$420 increase is added to each
within-step of the grade.
Employees earning less than So
900 a year will get a fiat $500
raise. while those earning $4,000
or more will get $500. President
Truman is expected to sign the
Legislation into law some time
! this week.
New Leave System.
The President also is expected
to sign into law the 13 to 26 days
a year graduated leave system
for Federal employees. The new
leave system allows employees to
accumulate unused annual leave
from year to year within the &C
and 80 days maximum allowance
and repeals the present require
ment that employees use all OF
their 1851 calendar leave by June
80, 1852.

'The equipment is such as could

The kind of transaction Senator
KEN referred to is handled
