ADMINISTRATIONS REC
ORD-The administration must
take positive action this year to
improve the Governments re-
duction -in-force system and
otherwise strengthen civil serv-
ice. James Watson, director of
the National Civil Service
League. declared yesterday.
In a speech before the Junior
Chamber of Commerce here, Mr.
Watson said the inequities in
present RIFF regulations "are
forcing thousands Of able men
and women out of the Govern
ment." He declared that vet
erans' preference must be modi-
fed to give non-veteran career
workers a better break in reten-
ton rights.
The chief of the non partisan,
business-Supported league said
the Administrations record on
political schedule c jobs has been
good. Despite pressures from
Republican politicians. the Civil
Service Commission, with the
support of the White House, has
remained firm in only approving
such schedule c jobs as it felt
were necessary, Mr.. Watson de-
clared.

Urging Cuts in Tariffs
To Accelerate Trade
BY the Asseeioted Press

The Randall commission is
preparing to recommend to
President Eisenhower a drastic
overhauling of foreign trade poll
cies based on repeal of the buy
American" act and gradual low
ering of tariff barriers.
The 17-member commission,
set up by Gen. Eisenhower to
study foreign economic policies.
has been notified by its chair
man, Clarence B. Randall, to be
ready tomorrow to approve or
dissent to a report some men,
berS predicted will explode con-
troversy in Congress. Mr.. Ran
dali plans to complete the re-
port Monday.
Would Repeal 1888 Act.
Tentative drafts circulated
among members. call for:
/. Repeal of the 1888 Buy
American" Act. under which the
Federal Government must give
home producers preference in
its purchases.
2. Some further action,
limited in scope and carefully
safeguarded." to lower tariffs
beyond the SO to 81 per cent
reductions already accomplished
under the reciprocal trade agree
ments act. -
3. Retention of the So-called
"peril point" and escape clauses
of the present law. designed to
protect domestic industries from
severe damage from imports.
4. Government assistance for
companies, workers and COM
munitieS whenever injury results
from increases in imports. trace
able to tariff changes" Such
aid could be given through tax
amortization, preference on Gov
ernment contracts and place
ment, training and rehabilita-
ton for workers.
5. Cooperation with other ma
tions to stabilize the price of raw
materials which must be import-
ed from abroad.
Notes Growth of Purchases.
In its tentative report. the
commission said that the Buy
American" Act had become law
when the Governments pur-
chases totaled only about 81 bill
lion a year as against about $40
billion now.
I'VE are fully cogniZant of sem
timent everywhere that Govern
ment should buy from those who
pay its expenses" the committee
said. Our recommendations are
not based on any belief that for
eign producers have an inherent
right to supply either our Gov.
ernment directly or the other,
fields where Government funds
may be part of those involved.
'The specific recommendations
we have made for repeal of this
type of legislation are based on
our best effort to take into ac-
count the total public interest"
D Free Trade Dismissed.
The committee. which some
members expect to recommend a
further lowering of tariffs with
in maximum Is per cent re-
duction, dismissed free trade as
academic. 1t said that by and
large American customs regula-
tions are no more complicated
than those of other countries.
Recommending some changes,
1t scolded United States allies
on this score. adding:
I'm our judgment, one of the
most serious consequences-one
that is. we believe recognizable
but immeasurable-is the tend
ency to put the major blame on
us and to expect us to take uni
lateral action to cure the ills
of the world and to relieve the
rest of the free world from much
of the pressing necessity for
constructive action by it."

the year to hold pay-raise hear
ings. On the Senate side. Chair
man Carlson of the Senate Civil
Service Committee previously an
nounced his group will hold early

MIR. Rees' announcement par
TALLY Offset the gloom occa-
stoned by the Administrations
lukewarm attitude toward Fed
eral pay raise. Administration
officials declare the current eco
nomic situation would not JUS
tify a Federal pay boost. Also,
they contend that Federal SAL
aries have more than kept pace
with rising living costs since l947.
COUNTER ARG NJ E N t.
Meanwhile, the AFL Government
Employees Council has issued a
statement strongly criticizing the
Civil Service Commissions pay
statistics.
The council said the commits
sion was wrong on the following
counts:
/. The commission arbitrarily
selected 1947 as the year to base
its comparisons. when it should
have selected 1889, the year when
prices first started to rise. Gov
ernment workers did not get
their first pay raise until 1945.
2. The increase in the "aver-
age" Federal salary the last few
years is meaningless because
Government workers actually re-
ceived no raise in pay. The rea-
son for the average" salary in
crease is due to the heavy re-
ductions-in-f force during the
past year. when most Of the sep
arated employees were in the
lower salary grades. Conse-
quently. their separations tended
to increase the average" SAL
ary for the Federal service.
3. The national defense pro-
gram has resulted in the Goy-
ernment hiring scientists, engi-
neers and technicians at salaries
generally higher than most Fed
eral employees receive. This. too.
has tended to increase the aver
age Federal salary. even though
most Government employees have
not benefited from it.
The council presented its own
statistics showing that a GS-5
employe in 1889 received a $4,000
annual entrance salary. COM
pared to the $3.410 pay for that
job today. This is an increase
of 70.5 per cent. but the cost of
living since 1889 has increased
by 95.6 per cent.
PRESIDENTIAL SUPPORT
President Eisenhower in his
state-of-the- Union message to
Congress yesterday asked that
Government employees be given
unemployment m p ems a ton
benefits. Protection against the
hazards of temporary unemploy-
ment should be extended to some
6.5 million workers, including
civilian Federal workers. who
now lack this safeguard" Pres
ident Eisenhower declared.
