OLIVE HELPS GET BETTER
DEAL FOR ROAD WORKERS

Raleigh.-The State Personnel
Council has granted 50-hour
week to State highway mainter-
ance workers, effective next Octo-
Der 1, following a demand by HUI
bert E. Olive that the five-day
work-week now in effect for other
State employees be extended to the
men who maintain the roads.
olives program for State en-
ployees, released last week, put
him on record as favoring a cost
of-living pay raise for all State
employees, a revamping of the
controversial Personnel Depart
ment, and an equal number of holi-
days for all State employees. The
program is designed to give equal
treatment to all the thousands of
men and women who serve the
State.
"The pay of thousands of them
is pitifully low, barely at the sub
sistence level" Olive said. He
pointed out that Korean emergency
and the steadily rising cost of
living made obsolete many of the
salary levels set by the Personnel
Department two and three years
ago.
Earlier, Olive had advocated bet
ter pay for school teachers.
DIR. R. E. carp, Olives State
campaign m G er, expressed
pleasure that Olives call for the
five-day week for highway main
tenance workers had been approved
by the Personnel Council. Such
employees now work 45 and more
hours a week.
carp, who is a former member
of the Highway Commission, said:
Il am glad Hubert Olive blasted
the Personnel Department off the
fence in regard to the five-day
work-week for highway mainten-
ance employees. They had been
heming and having on this matter.
for long, long time, and we are
very pleased that our demand last
Friday for approval of the five
day week spurred the Department
into action"
