Senators who want 10 make
their payrolls public got an m
vitation today from Senator
Dirksen. Republican Of Illinois.
TO 60 right ahead.
But Senator Dirksen. the
Senate Republican leader,
stood anchored against the kind
| of forced publication that Sena-
ltor Morse. Democrat Of Oregon.
proposed in the Senate yester-
day.
There is no need for the
kind Of bill Senator Morse is
proposing" Senator Dirksen
said. ANY member who wants
to make q statement about who
Is on his payroll and how much
they are paid can do so any
time.
Those who don't care to dis
close the individual salaries
that are paid to their employees
ought not to be forced TO do So"
The House makes its pay
roll figures available, but public
Senate records list only the
names Of employees and the
total amount assigned for pay
ment Of them.
In the light Of disclosures
that some members Of the
House and Senate have hired
relatives. q few Senators have
said they would have no per-
sonal objection to making their
payroll records available. But
they have not done so, con-
tending such action would
violate Senate custom.
Senator Dirksen contends
that to publish salaries would
only stir up dissension among
workers who felt they were not
being paid as well as some coll
leagues in the same Office.

interview he believes the SAL

MILITARY IN CIVILIAN
JOBS-The Chamber Of Com
inerce Of the United States in
testimony before the House APP

criticized the use of military
personnel in civilian jobs in the
defense agencies. 1t thus Joined
Federal mploye unions IN
charging that such practices
were costly to the American
taxpayers and unfair to career
civilian employees.
At the same time. the Cham
Der called for the Government
to close military installations
no longer necessary and In
competition with private indus
try. In this stand the Cham
Der is at odds with Government

that the administration is clos

Chamber contends the program
Is not proceeding fast enough.
