Only a small percentage of
Federal workers are in the first

Federal salaries lag consider

tration said that Federal SAL
aries. Of $4,000 to $4,000 a
year are far short of the ST. 900

can be seen. Federal pay raises
ranging from 1IaE cent for
employees in graV INTO 81 per
cent for those t0A grade Is
would be neededo bring Gov
eminent salaries, abreast with
those Of comparable industry
jobs. And increases even higher
would be required to bring Fed
eral super-jobS apace with
comparable industry positions.
Federal pay raise sponsors
as well as Government en-
ploye leaders are not asking
| for salary increases Of such
proportions.
But they do say that the
figures prove conclusively that
the White Houses 6 per cent
pay raise proposal is much too
small and that an increase q
10 per cent or more Is fully
justified.
