The measure would not pro-
vide any fiat pay raises. In
stead, II would liberalize over
time, holiday and night differ
entail compensation.
The measure would provide
time-and-a-half compensatory
time of for clerks and carriers
and other postal workers below
level 7 for work on Saturday
and Sunday. instead Of the
present straight compensatory
time of. PoSal workers would
get 30 minutes of for each

II also would provide COM
pensatory double time of for
work on holidays, instead Of the
present straight time of.
A 20 per cent night pay diff
ferential instead Of the present
10 per cent would be provided,
Also, employees assigned to du-
ties at a higher level would get
the commensurate pay raise
Immediately. instead of having
to work 80 days at the higher
Job, as is now the case. The
measure also would give double
pay TO postal workers on the
Job on Christmas Day instead
Of the present time-and-a-half.
OUTSIDE CHANCE-Federal
employee leaders are hoping
that. in the uproar caused by
President Eisenhower's veto Of
the 1859 Independent Ofiices
appropriations bill. Congress,
in revising the bill. may also
drop the Objectionable provision
which would make future civil
service retirement liberalization
difficult to realize.
However, this appears to be
only an outside chance. The
provision would bar future
liberalization of retirement ben
ef1ts for present or retired Gov
eminent workers unless Con-
gress voted money at the same
time to pay for the cost.
President Eisenhower vetoed
the bill because ii contained an
additional $3.50 million for the
retirement fund. But in his
veto message he said nothing
about the restrictive provision
regarding future retirement
liberalization.

Is time that the agency turned

forward the bold renewal pro-
grams that have been mapped
for the Southwest section OF
town"
John A. Remon. RIA chair
man, told the real estate boards
convention at Bedford Springs,
Pa, last month that an 80-acre
area between M street and
Fort McNair would be divided
into smaller parcels for mar
keting purposes.
Wants Specific Proposals
Mr.. Kyle said he hopes RIA
could translate It's plan prompt
ly into a specific proposal and
added he feels the tract could
be completely developed and
occupied in a matter Of months
II the land agency would give
a green light.
He also called on RIA to
cut the red tape on the real
/ estate boards suggestion for
applying restoration techniques
TO certain Southwest sites.
Specifically, he mentioned
the square containing Barney
Neighborhood House. between
N, o, Union and Fourth streets
S.W., might lend itself to
treatment similar to that given
the Georgetown, Foggy Bottom
and Capitol Hill areas.
1--WE believe that the talent
and experience that went into
rebuilding these now famous
neighborhoods could well be
channeled into the Southwest
renewal project" Mr.. Kyle
said.

would be lucky to make ex-
penses in . mere salvage OF
scrap and any valuables still
intact.
More Service Seen
The company wants 10 haul
up the DORA and sell her for
repair and resumption Of sea
service. The spokesman be-
licves some ship line might be
willing 10 pay as much as SIS
million FOR the vessel. plus an
other few million for repairs
far less than the costs Of a
new ship.
The salvage company says II
had reached an agreement with
underwriters In Italy for all
salvage rights to the DORA at
q price between 100000 and
81 million.
He said the underwriters
later refused a down payment
check but that the salvage or
ganization feels the purported
agreement is binding.
But even n II isn't. he con-
tended. the company can 20
ahead and still get at least so
per cent Of the returns from
any type Of salvage.
Legal experts in New York
disagree. contending that the
wreck is owned by the insur-
ance underwriters who paid
the loss and damage claims.
This is also the position Of the
underwriters, who report they
have received numerous SAL
wage proposals but that none
so far has been regarded seri-
ously.

from all directions and by
morning all but IS OF the
Doria's i.T06 passengers and
crew had been removed.
The death toll finally was
established at SOS on the
Doria and 5 on the Stockholm.
Since then. two others died
from injuries attributed 10 the
mishap. boosting the death
total TO 81.
Hundreds OF lawsuits we're
fled after the collision. In due
course they were consolidated
into a single case, but after
months Of hearings efforts 70
Ak the responsibility were
dropped. Insurance agents for
the two lines set up a fund for
settling claims.
Before the hearings were
concluded. the substance Of the
testimony was that each ship
blamed the other for making a
wrong turn at the last moment
as they met.
Conflict on Salvage
As for the matter Of rails
ing the Doria, the situation has
brought conflicting opinions.
Some experts have voiced
belief that. while the liner
theoretically might be brought
up from the 225 feet of water,
the job would be so expensive
and dangerous IL wouldn't be
worth while. Others term II
impossible.
But one firm maintains 1t is
determined to try. just the
same. This is the A. A. A. SAL
wage Co. Of Trenton, N. j., and
some associates.
A spokesman said this week
that divers expect to go down
shortly to check the DORA. II
the ship can't be raised, he
said, it might be blown apart
and salvaged piecemeal.
The spokesman said either
operation might cost $2.5 mill

Meanwhile, one major task
made necessary by the crash
Is all but ended. For more
than a year attorneys for in
surance companies have been
settling death, injury and
cargo claims.
Claimants will receive a total
Of about SO million. They orig

Both Lines Paid
Foreign underwriters also
have paid the Italian Line some
si4 million for the loss Of the
Andrea DORA, and the Swedish
American Line received 81 mil

bow Of the Stockholm.
The largest death settlement
went TO the four small children

ished in the sinking. It was
for $175.000. The figure was
predicted on the education and

they reached adulthood.

Speaking Of Northwest Urban
Renewal Area plans, Mr.. Kyle
quoted william Dyer, Urban
Renewal Council chairman. as
saying 'let the agency get some
brick and mortar experience
under its belt before it starts
putting fences around any more
projects"
AS for fears that the city may
lose some Federal funds ear
marked for local programs I'M
less various plans and docu-
ments are submitted by certain
dates, he said the Treasury
isn't going to go dry within

ating funds for urban renewal

he continued. Washington

As for the Area C proposal,
Mr.. Kyle asserted IL had taken

before now II II had been d.

He said that an important
factor for stepping up the pace
Of Southwest renewal plans is
"the current ample supply Of
mortgage money" He went on
TO say he thought local lending
institutions might look favor
ably upon pooling their re-
sources TO finance the various
projects that would develop

got under way and was outraged to
be served nothing but fish for lunch
and dinner on four successive days.
On the fifth day he took one look at
the luncheon menu, and announced,
