The good Lords plan is such
That, when flaming years have

And Nature banks the fires.

Joseph Robbie, Minneapolis at
torney and Fifth District DFL
Congressional candidate in 1856,
this week expressed the hope that
there will be no curtailment Of the
postal service on July /, 1857 and
that Post office employees win be
given pay increases TO bring them
in line with other government en-
pIoyees.
Robbie suggested ms one means
of gaining additional money TO
pay for postal service. other than
new burdens on the taxpayer, the
avoidance OF waste and misman-
agement In the Post Office De-
partment reaching into the Min
neapolis area.
The Minneapolis attorney said
that ~ waste and mismanage-
ment are avoided, Postmaster
General summerfield win need 10
spend less time sending sos sig
mails 10 Congress demanding in
creases In his funds and higher
postage rates"
Robbie quoted a report by the
Comptroller General dated Sep
TENDER 10, 1869 to the Senate
Committee on Post Office and
Civil Service indicating that six
35-foot trailers unsuitable for use
in Minneapolis were purchased
and delivered 10 the Minneapolis
Post office on December IS. 1854.
despite the fact that the Regional
Vehicle Manager In Minneapolis
had specifically advised the De
partment In Washington that
these trailers could not be utilized !
and trailers longer than twenty |
feet were unsuitable for Mime
apolis operations.
Robbie added that the six new
trucks were stored at the Post
office dock parking space more
than four months from their ar
rival ON December IS, 1854 until
April "a, 1865. at which time they |
were moved 10 open storage at
Fort Smelling
Two OF the trailers remained IN
storage at Fort Smelling nearly
six months more until October 10
1865 when they were transferred
to Detroit. The remaining four
were transferred TO the Chicago
Post office ON November n, 1865,
after nearly one year of open stor-
age"
1T cost s7650 each to pun the
trailers from Minneapolis TO Chi

Hearings Set Next Week
On Federal Pay Boosts

The House Civil Service Com
mittee today scheduled Federal
pay raise hearings starting next
Thursday.
A move to limit the extent of
the hearings by setting a specific
termination date was blocked.
However. the committee agreed
to meet in executive session on
Thursday. June 20. to evaluate
the progress of the hearings and
to see if a time limit should be
set.
The time limit move was made
by committee members friendlS
to the pay raise cause. They
feared that protracted hearings
would diminish pay raise chances
this year in the drive for ad-
journment.
Following today's meeting
Chairman Murray reiterated his
opposition to classified and
postal pay raises this year. Such
pay boosts would be imitation
ary," he said. The majority Of
the members, however. indicated
they favored pay raises.

day told the Society for Per-
sonnet Administrators annua
conference:
1T seems to us that the time
has come for the Federal Gov
eminent to develop a strong, new
Federal promotion program. We
have asked our staff to consult
with representatives of employe
organizations, veterans organiza-
tons. and agencies on the steps
we should take"
But earlier in his speech, Mr.
ellsworth took somewhat of a diff
ferent stand. He said the csc
staff took great satisfaction in
reporting the progress that agen-
cies have made in improving
their promotion practices since
|. 1850. They (the csc
Istaff) advise me. however, that
there is still room for improve
Iment. It is not a question OF
changing our course. We need tc
move ahead on the same basic
course, but at an accelerated
rate"
And a special csc report or
promotions declares that a sur
vey made by the commission "af-
firms the presence Of many merit
and career factors operating in
present promotion practices.
csc Under Heavy Fire
But in practically the same
breath the csc report says it will
propose development of standard.
demanding greater competition
in Federal promotions, employe
consultation, specific agency
promotion plans. etc.
What to make of the csc posi-.
ton on promotions?
Actually, the csc has never
been too keen on setting ur
a Government-wide promotion
policy that would force Fedora
agencies to develop systematizec
promotion programs based or
CSC standards and which would
give the commission authority
TO crack down on offending
agencies.
But the csc is under heavy
fire from both Congress anc
Federal employe unions which
charge that many promotions in
Government today are the re-
suit OF personal and politica,
patronage.
! Chairman Johnston Of the
Senate Civil Service Committee
has sponsored a bill to create
merit promotions boards in all
Federal agencies and has threat
ened to hold hearings and report
the bill unless the csc comes
up with satisfactory solution
TO the promotion problem.
The csc therefore is in a
dilemma. 1t doesn't want to
antagonize the various Federal
agencies by setting up a toe
rigid promotion policy. Yet il
doesn't want to antagonize Sen
ator Johnston and Congress
generally TO the point that a
merit promotion board system
will become law. 1t feels such
a system would be too rigid and
enthusiastically unfeasible.
Hence. the CSC's vacillating
policy on promotions. 1t will
have to make a decision soon.

Meanwhile there were persist

both the Democratic and Repub-
