7.5Pct. Raise

Po|ice,Firen1en
Senators Approve
Boost Retroactive
To February 28
By DON S. WARREN

The Senate District Committee
today gave quick and unanimous
approval to a bill granting rs
per cent increase in pay. retro
active to February %, to men,
bers of the Metropolitan. Park
and White House Police and the
District Fire Department, at a
cost estimated at $l.4 million for
the first year.
A similar bill has been re-
ported by a subcommittee of the
House District Committee, where
approval is expected soon.
The Senate bill was brought
before the full committee by Sen
ator Bible, Democrat of Nevada,
chairman of the Fiscal sdbcom-
mittee. He said his group was
Unanimous in support Of the
measure.
He said the starting pay Of a
police private or new fireman
now was only $1,000 a year and
that the bill would raise this to
$4,193.
Figure Brings Whistle
He told the full committee the
cost for the first year was esti-
mated at about $1.4 million. This
brought a whistle or two but no
disapproval from the commit
tee.
The District already is facing
la financial crisis, partly due to
House insistence on cutting the
authorized $40 million Federal
payment for this fiscal year by
50 million
Senator Bible told reporters
that with enactment of the pay
raise bill and possible other
added costs to the city, his sub
committee and the House group
will have to get to work early
next year on a new revenue bill
for the District. This would in
volve new or increased taxes and,
some Senators felt, a hoped-for
increase in the Federal payment
to at least the authorized $40
million.
Opposed BY Commissioners
Approval of the police-fire pay
raise bill was recommended
over objections voiced by the
District Commissioners. At the
hearings the city heads raised
the point of District property
They also argued that the po-
lice and firemen got a IA pei
cent pay raise two years ago
while classified employees of the
Federal and Districts govern.
Iments were Just recently award
ed an increase of rs per cent
The committee also gave unan-
Iimous approval today to a bill
providing extra pay to police
and firemen when they are calles
lin on days off in emergencies.

charge Of the New York dentist
after he had refused to say
whether he was a Communist.
The report noted that the
Army had made precedural
changes to correct 10 of the 48
errors-after the departure of
DR.. Peress.
Inquiry Held Inadequate
1t charged the Inspector Gen.
erals investigation of the Peress
case was inadequate, demon
strating inefficiency." But it
added that had that report been
given the subcommittee, its six
weeks of hearings on the Army
Mccarthy feud last year would
have been greatly expedited.
The report said that Secretary
Of the Army Stevens, and per-
haps some of his Pentagon
bosses, concealed the facts about
the case of, the New York dentist
from the public for almost year.
This was a dis-service to the
country, it said.
The report on the case, which
was a major factor in the start
of the Army feud with Senator
Mccarthy. Republican of Wis
consin. a year ago, made no
mention of subversion. The
Senator called DR.. Peress a
Fifth Amendment Communist"
Errors of Judgment Cited
But the case showed "indi-
vidual errors in judgment, lack
of proper coordination. ineffec-
tive administration procedures,
inconsistent application of in
vestigating regulations and ex-
cessive delays" the report stated.
Army delay in making the
facts public f'served to unduly
arouse and increase suspicious
of the public as to possible Com
munist influence and thereby
was a disservice to the Army
as a whole, to this subcommittee
and to the general public" the
report said.
Senator Bender, Republican of
Ohio. said the report should
have stated fatty that mo Com
munist influence was found in
the Army" He refused to sign
it.
1t should have stated further,
he said, that mot one iota of
evidence" was found to support
Senator McCarthy's charges that
some "silent Communist mas
termind" in the Pentagon was
involved.
Mccarthy and Five Sign
Senator Mccarthy and five
other members signed the re-
port.
It stated that John G. Adams,
former Army counselor, showed
disrespect for the subcommittee
when he chose to disregard" a
letter frem Senator Mccarthy
the day before DR.. Peress got
his honorable discharge on Feb
ruary 2 1854. This was. few
days after DR.. Peress had re-
fused to answer questions be-
fore the Mccarthy subcommit-
tee on Constitutional grounds.
Senator Mccarthy wrote the
Army on February l urging that
