clared:
"They would need the new

But he added:

lead over the Reds in long-range
air power as well as in weapons

Evening star., 1954-05-14

Young'S remarks were an answer
to the NFFE official or just a
coincidence could not be learned.
However. the csc chief said the
commission was working on a
broad plan to improve manage
ment-employe relationship in
Government.
The program will emphasize
the need for better communica-
ton between employees and man
agement," Mr.. Young promised.
ut will keep employees informed
about present and future activi-
ties, plans and policies that may
affect them. It will keep man.
agement informed about en-
ploye attitudes. interests and
needs. Within the commission.
definite responsibilities for this
program are being assigned to
key persons in several bureaus
and Offices"
Mr.. Young predicted that the
future holds great promise for
Federal career workers and a
great opportunity for better Gov
ernment through improved per-
sonnel administration"
The sharp criticism leveled
against the administration by
Mr.. Steward reflects the gripes
of many employe officials.
The union officials complain
that the administration does not
consult them on important per-
sonnel policy matters and legis-
lative proposals regarding Gov
ernment employe benefits. They
feel that the administration
could have saved itself many
headaches if they had consulted
with employe groups.
The fight over the postal pay
reclassif1cation plan is cited as
one case in point. Had employe
groups been consulted, the bitter
opposition to some of the provi.
siohs might have been avoided.
The employe leaders also COM
plain they haven't been con-
suited on the group life and
health insurance program pro-
posals for Federal employees as
well as other fringe benefit pro-
posals.
In his speech before the an
nual conference of the Society
for Personnel Administration,
MIR. iSteward lashed out at the
ADMINISTRATORS lord Of the
manor" and papa knows best"
attitude.
"It might be pertinent to men
ton in this connection that in
private industry unilateral ac-
ton by management in regard
to fringe benefits without con-
sultation and negotiation with
employees is termed an unfair
labor practice" Mr.. Steward de-
clared.
Our concept of genuine team
work is a situation in which en-
ployes have an opportunity to
consult and discuss with man
agement proposed steps which
vitality affect their conditions Of
employment" Mr.. Steward add
ed. I'VE certainly do not say
that the views Of the employees
necessarily should prevail; but
we do say that you can not
have real teamwork If employees
are constantly confronted with
decisions already arrived at A.
nally and seemingly irrevocably.
with the overwhelming majority
Of the actual team ignored"

cized the administrators Sc

Mr.. Steward pointed out that
the conservative NFFE has al
ways favored strong security
program, but he denounced the
administration for making a
"numpers game" out of it. with
. "bingo game atmosphere"
Mr.. Steward quoted from
Lewis Carroll to illustrate his
point:

reason about

We add seUen, and ten, and
then multiply out
By one thousand diminished

PAY-A lot of behind-the-
scenes meetings are being held
by members of the House Civil
Service Committee to effect a
compromise on Federal pay
raise legislation.
The group probably will re-
quire hearings for one day
Wednesday to allow postal en-
ploye groups to explain again
their objections to Postmaster
General Summerfield's pay re-
classification plan. Then the
committee will go into executive
session.
AS reported here yesterday. a
group Of Republican members
led by Representative Broyhill
Of Virginia are drafting a COM
promise pay plan. The COM
promise most talked of is to
add another 500 to the admin
istration's 312 per cent average
pay raise proposals for classified
employees. The 500 would be
added to the first nine grades.
It would not apply to employees
in Grades 10 and above, most
of whom already would fare
exceedingly well under the ad-
ministration's plan. The COM
promise would allow these Grade
10 and above employees the orig
inal raises proposed by the ad-
ministration.
The compromise calls for
postal workers to receive q 1910
to $500 raise. Most postal work.
ers would receive between $310
to $3.50. 49, trs'
The big question now is
whether the administration will
agree to accept such a compro-
mise. Administration officials
previously indicated they would
balk at any sizable pay increase.
Also, postal employe union off,
cials declare that even a sub
stantial raise will not be ac-
ceptable to them unless some of
the wage-fixing authority pro-
posed for the Postmaster Gen.
eral is watered down.

Michael o'Neiu Ao"faS Lester aEdses Mack
There is not much that needs
to be said at this late date about
"The Moon Is Blue" except that
the reinstated comedy is at the
Shubert Theater for a two-week
stay. This, Of course, is an eva
sion a man uses when he can't
think Of anything new to say
about the play which was the
father to the more-famous "out-
spoken" movie.
Almost every one must know
that it is about a terrifyingly
frank young woman who con-
fesses bluntly to virginity in so
many words right out there on
the stage. She lures a young
architect into picking her up on
the observation platform atop
the Empire State Building and
goes to his apartment to broil a
steak.
This innoeent tryst is invaded
by the cheerfully lecherous
father Of the girl the architect
is supposed to have been engaged
to. It ultimately is also invaded
by the father of the talkative
girl who came over to broil the
steaks. There is a great deal OF
ruckuS, but nothing very exciting
happens.
| This is a fairly funny comedy
F. Hugh Herbert has concocted
A great many of its lines, nat
urally. are a lot funnier if you
have never heard them before.
Some of them are even funny
while being familiar.
Fortunately a great many of
the better lines fall to the roue
father of the architects Tilted
girl friend. played by Edward
Andrews. Mr.. Andrews Is a COM
petent actor who knows some-
thing about timing and who can
deliver a comedy line as if he
had just thought of it.

when he heaves into view in the
first act, for it is he who SAL
wages this edition of THE Moon
Is Blue" Lester Mack, as the
irate parent of the girl here in
volved. is an old hand at his
role, too.
The romantic duo of the OBJ
servation tower and the steak
fry. however, it is an unhappy
duty to report, are hardly more
than adequate. Jacqueline Holt
and Michael Upton do recite
their lines clearly and firmly and
that is exactly what it sounds
like - recitation. They're not
enough to spoil THE Moon Is

Comedy highlight Of last

Anthony Tudor's "Gala Per-
formance," to the whimsical
musical Of Serge Prokofleff.
There are those who think, and
with cause. that this spirited
satire should be included in
every Ballet Theater perform
ance.
AS danced principally by Miss
Serrano, Lillian Lanese and
Barbara Lloyd, Gala Perform
ance" represents the reward
dancers earn for being good. In
it they are permitted to cast
aside all the repressions that
surround their artistic. lives.
Ballet Theater's dancers are ex-
cellent caricaturists and "Gala
Performance" is an especially
hilarious dish of tea for them.
The excellence with which
they danced the traditional and
lovely Les Sylphides to open last
