employees in the low grades nave
been given increases that have
kept pace With rising costs ei
living since 1899.
The President assumes thai the
1881 pay raise placed classified
workers and postal employees on
par with living costs. He is
wrong. It didn't.
Mr.. Eisenhower says the vetoed
wage bills disregard the sfunda-
mental principle" Of fair and
equitable treatment in the re-
lation Of enc worker to another
and IN relation to private eni-
ployees. He Is wrong. AS Jerry
Kluttz. well-informed Washing

shows plainly that the Govern.
ment's own per diem employees,
its laborers and mechanics. and
employees in many private in

and classified sorl.ers.
The President says fatty tha,
the raises of II per cent for

Prosperity
Is Due TO
Be Wufched


People took more money out
of their accounts IN savings and
loan associations last July than
they put in. the latest report Of
the Federal Home Loan Bank
Board reveals. That IS only the
third month that has happened
in the last IS years. The other
two we're right after the start Of
World War Il and the Korean
War.
Employment dropped by
800 900 last month, much larger
decline than IS normal for the
season, the Commerce and Labor
Departments report. Since he
start Of the year, factory employ
ment has declined each month,
after adjustment for seasonal
variations. There are now $50 900
fewer factory jobs than there
were in January.
Fewer units Of private housing
were started during the first
eight months of 1887 than for any
comparable perio since 1919,
the Labor Department reports.
The total of 100000 units IS II
per cent below the same period
last year.
Cash dividend payments BY cor
porations issuing public reports
totaled 4 per cent more during
the January-August period Of
this year than they did during the
same period Of 1856. the Com
