Cut Overtime
Premium Pay
For Civilians
Is Restricted
BY JOSEPH YOUNG

In an economy move, the De-
Tense Department has cracked
down on overtime work for
civilian employees, The Star
learned yesterday.
Secretary of Army Brucker
has issued an order barring paid
overtime for civilian workers ex-
cept in cases of unusual emerg-
Iencies."
Air Force Department officials
said an order will be Issued
soon to curb overtime work for
Air Force civilian workers.
Air Force spokesman said a
general overtime restriction pol
icy has been in effect in the Air
Force for several years, but that
in view of the economy move
this policy would be restated.
Navy Due to Follow Suit
Navy Department officials also
said that a general overtime
curb has been in effect in Navy
for several years. But as in the
case of the Air Force, it was
stated that Navy also would
likely give added emphasis to
the program.
In line with the overtime re-
striction policy, it was reported
that the Defense Department
had asked Government contrac-
tors with defense contracts to
limit overtime work of their
employees as much as possible.
The overtime restriction move
was prompted by sharp criticism
of. the House Appropriations
Committee regarding overtime
work by defense agencies civil
ian workers. The committee said
stable money could be saved
by eliminating overtime.
There are no available sta
tistics on the number of the
Defense Departments / million
civilian workers who engage in
overtime work. However, very
few OF them work overtime on
a regular basis.
Per diem (blue collar workers
are paid cash time-and-one-
half for all hours in a week in
excess of 40.
Rates Less After Grade 9
Classified white collar en-
ployes through grade 9 are paid
Itime-and-one-half and have the
option of taking this in cash or
taking compensatory time of.
After grade 9 the rate of over.
time pay is considerably less
than time -and-one-half. Also
In these upper-level jobs the
agencies have the right to
require the employees to take
compensatory time off for over
time in lieu of cash.
Since the bulk of the Defense
Departments civilian workers
are blue collar people. most of
the overtime work has to be
paid for in cash.
The American Federation Of
Government Employees has pro-
tested Army Secretary Brucker's
order in regard to white collar
employees. The Age contends
that under the order, these
employees could be presSured to
work overtime in return for
compensatory time off. even
though the law specifically gives
them the option to receive cash.

Budget Change
To Cut District
Teaching Stats
School Chiefs Cite
Danger in New
Congress Order
BY JAMES G. DEANE

Congress has ordered q change
in District school budgetine
which will cut the size of the
city's future teaching staff.
The school system has been
basing its teacher appropriation
requests on end-of October en-
rollment predictions. Glasses also
are organized on this basis.
The House and Senate Appro-
priations Committees have told
school officials that in the future
they must use average enrolment
during the year for calculating
teacher needs. instead of the Oc-
tober figures.
Unless Congress changes the
instructions they will force school
officials to scale down future
teacher budget requests, Deputy
School Supt. Charles N. Zellers
said last night.
Sees Serious Impact
Mr.. Zellers was not able to
estimate the extent of the fu-
ture cuts Immediately. But he
said they could have a very Sc
rious impact, especially in high
schools.
And DR.. Carl F. Hansen, as
sistant superintendent in charge
OF high schools, said on the ba-
sis of present enrolment ex-
pectations the change could cost
his division 20 teachers next
year. Mr.. zellers said the cut
might be greater.
DR.. Hansen, who vigorously
fought a teacher cutback last
year. said such a loss would be
a catastrophe" He called the
congressional move "a very STAR
ting thing" and said if it meant
what it appeared he would Wig
orously oppose it.
School officials already have
objected to the cut to Congress.
School Supt. Hobart M. Corning
told the Senate District Appro-
priations Subcommittee, headed
by Senator Pastore. Democrat Of
Rhode Island. in recent closed
door hearings, that the schools
have always budgeted on October
enrolment and that he objected
to any change.
Protested to Aides
Mr.. Zellers said that after the
House District Appropriations
Subcommittee, which took the
action first, came up with the
new directive he had protested it
to Senate aides.
II hoped the Senate would
drop it. and I was surprised to
find it in the report" he
declared.
Mr.. Zellers said he did not
learn Of the Senate committee
action until late last week and
had not had time to call it to the
attention Of other school officials.
He said he plans to take it up
with DR.. Corning tomorrow and
that school officials unquestion-
ably will seek to persuade Con-
gress to withdraw the directive
The directive does not apply ia
the school year starting this
September. but takes effect in
September. 1858. But school Of
ficials already are preparing
their budget requests for 1853
SO, and these will be turned in
at the District Building in a few
weeks. Thus, the matter is OF
immediate concern.
No Explanation
There was no explanation in
either the House or Senate COM
mittee report for the surprise
action.
