Dear Sir:
October %, 1949 group of

ton Veterans of World War l OF

of IL other veterans groups. They
can elect their own officers and
have their own social affairs, also
attend a Declaration Day exercises
as a unit.
At this time the organization has
grown into a National one, with
barracks in 36 states, having a Ma
tional Auxiliary with II state de-
partmentS. Our leading state de-
partment, Oregon with "a barracks,
Washington has II barracks, little
New Hampshire just chartered its
10th barracks
The Department of Ohio was in
stituted September 26, 1854 in
Cleveland, having fhe required 5
barracks, one each in Canton, Mas

Department Commander installed
the officers of a new barracks in

NSSAlSAAlaSA Wal \ ~ pt o6SJ
hower's letter to Mr.. Murray,
dated March 18:
II appreciate your letter re-
specting HR4644, the Postal
Field Service Compensation Act
of 1855, and am interested to
learn of your committees action
on this important legislation.
MY special message to Con-
gress on January II emphasized
the need for fair adjustments in
postal pay and long-overdue re-
classifications of postal positions.
To accomplish these purposes. 1
recommended an increase of 5
per cent in the compensation of
postal employees and also :e-
classification of postal position
and compensation adjustments
to bring about proper wage re-
lationship among new CLASH
fications.
1.-THE combined increases of
pay adjustments and reclaSsifi-
cation amount to an overall 6l2
per cent salary increase in the
postal service. These modifica-
tions. in my Judgment. would
be equitable to all postal en-
ployes.
II am gratified by the COM
mittees action on reclassifica-
ton. AS to the compensation of
postal employees, I note that your
committee has approved an in
crease higher than I recon-
mended. This gives me concern,
not only because of the fiscal
impact of such increases, but
also because of the close rela-
tionship between this legislation
and legislation now pending in
the Congress affecting the COM
pensation of other Federal en-
ployes.
"Of course, in the considera-
ton of such legislation as this.
there can be reasonable differ
ences of opinion as to what con-
stitutes an appropriate increase.
Although I shall carefully
consider this factor when the
time comes for me to act on
this legislation, in fairness to
you and to your colleagues. I
must make it clear that any
additional increases in postal
salaries above your committees
action would give me the gravest
apprehension"
