for all Government employees.
The conferees predict it prob
ably will take three or four days
to work out final details on this
legislation.
Then. the classified and. postal
employees pay bills will be taken
up, probably about the first Of
next week. Quick agreement is
expected on the pay legislation.
Government pay raises this year
are certain. The only thing to be
settled is the amount. And the
chances are very strong that the
annual leave plan
will Supplant the new 20-day leave
system as law this year.
The time element isn't too i'm
portant any more, since Congress
sional leaders have given up hope
of adjournment on October and
are now talking about quitting on
October Is or 20 at the earliest.
Therefore, the conferees on the
pay and leave legislation have,
plenty OF time in which to act.

COMPROMISE-The pay bills

Legislation are the fiat $400 meas
ure approved by the House and
the Senate's fiat 10 per cent bill,
with an $500 maximum.
Thomas Walters, operations di-
rector of the AFL Government
Employees Council, which repre-
sents unions with a membership
Iof more than 100000 Federal
workers. has written to each con-
fierce, asking that a minimum S40O
guarantee for Government en-
Iployes be written into the final
version.
While it's too early yet to pre-
dict with certainty what the con-
Iferees will agree on, some con-
Iferees indicate that perhaps d $500
minimum guarantee within the
framework of the 10 per cent bill,
might be arrived at. Under such a
bill. employees earning less than
$4,000 would get $500. while those
earning above that would get a
fiat 10 per cent boost, with an $500
maximum raise.
There are other compromise
plans being readied by other con-
fereeS, but all are agreed that it
won't take long to reach a settle
ment.
The Senate conferees on pay
and postal rates were appointed
last week. The House conferees
on the classified pay raise legisla-
ton appointed yesterday, are Rep
resentatives Murray of Tennessee,
Davis Of Georgia, Whitaker of
Kentucky, Democrats: and Rees

York, Republicans. Representa-
tlves Murray. Rees and Davis are
also conferees on the postal paw

On the postal rate bill, which in
cludes the 13-to-26-days gradu-

conferees are Representatives
