measure to the Johnston bill.
The substitute would increase
annuities under the civil service
retirement system by 20 per cent
instead of the 33K per cent
boost contained in the Johnston
measure.
In addition. the bill would pro-
vide for supplemental social
security coverage for Federal
employees on family survivorship
benefits. This would increase
present family survivorship
benefits by from so to 200 per
cent in some cases.
The Case substitute would
provide that, if Congress ap-
proved such a plan, Federal en-
ployes would express their views
either pro or con-on a secret
ballot in a national referendum.
If the employees rejected the
plan, it would be killed auto
matically.
Senator Case said there was
ample precedent for a refer
endum, declaring that employees
Of various States and municipal
tiles are now given the choice
Of voting whether to accept or
reject supplemental social Sc
curity coverage.
Senator Case said his proposal
would increase the present 11a
per cent civil service retirement
computation base to IA per cent
which would amount to about
q 20 per cent increase in annui-
ties as proof that the civil
service retirement system would
remain independent. The social
security benefits would apply only
to family survivorship benefits
under Senator Cases plan.
OPPOSED The proposal
brought immediate expressions
Of opposition from Federal en-
ploye leaders.
Jerome Keating, vice president
of the National Association of
Letter Carriers and considered
one of the best informed union
leaders on Federal retirement
matters, declared:
"The substitute plan offered
by Senator Case is just as bad
If not worse than the admins
tration's original plan. 1t is
totally unacceptable to us. We
are unalterably opposed to any
tieup in any form with social
security. Furthermore, the idea
of a referendum is an insult to
Federal employe unions. 1t ques-
tions the sincerity of Federal
employe union leaders when
they say that their members are
strongly opposed to any social
security tieup. If we didn't rep
resent the wishes of our member
ship, we would not be retained
in Office very long"
Other Federal employe leaders
echoed Mr.. Keating's sentiments.
