the csc could raise this figure
to $1,000 or $6.750 or higher if il
felt such an increase was neces-
sary to retain or attract EN-.
ployes. Another feature of the
plan is that. unlike the present
csc authority, which is limited
only to jobs for which recruit
Iment is difficult. it would apply
to jobs where''it is difncult to
retain present employees because
lof inadequate salaries.
Also. the CSC~would have the
authority to adjust the Within

the grade was raised.
csc officials emphasized that
the proposed authority would be
used very sparingly and only in

The officials of the various

necessary,
3 The commission recently held
a meeting with officials of the
Governments defense. scientific
and research agencies to discuss
the increasingly serious problem
of attracting and retaining key
personnel. Agency officials have
expressed alarm over the fact
that they are losing key employees
to private industry, owing to the
fact that industry is paying con-
siderably higher salaries. Also
the agencies say they are having
serious trouble attracting top
college graduates.
The csc unveiled its proposal
to the agency officials whereby
1t would have the authority to
raise salaries in any category OF
jobs where retention or recruit
ment of employees is made diff.
cult by inadequate salaries.
Under the plan. the commits
sion could approve a pay rate for
an employe in excess of the top
step of a grade. In addition, the
csc could raise the present
$4,000 a year pay ceiling to a
maximum of $17.5O0, if neces-
sary, to retain and attract top
personnel.
The csc already has been
given authority by Congress to
allow the recruitment of person.
mel in steps above the minimum
OF a grade, wherever agencies
find it hard to recruit for the
particular kind of job.
However. the CSC's new plan
would go much further by per-
hitting payment of salaries in
excess of the top maximum of a
grade. For example, the regular
top within-step Of grade 8 is
$3.50 a year. Under the plan.
