THE FEDERAL SPOTLIGHT
Pay Raise Sentiment Shapes Up
For Scientists and Engineers

to scientific and engineering
employees. At the same time a
reasonable pay raise, not tos
low but not too high, could be
given to classified and postal
workers.
AS a political fact Of life,
Congress will not give substan-
tial pay raises to upper-bracket
Federal employees and only
token increases to postal and
classified employees generally.
The postal and Government
employe unions are too power
full politically for that sort Of
thing.
DESERVE RECOGNITION
The many friends of Virgil
Couch, Federal career official,
are delighted that he is the
cover man of Time Magazine
this week. Mr.. Couch's fine
work in the civil defense pro-
gram is highlighted in the
magazine.
This is one of the few times
a Government career man has
received deserved credit in a
national publication.
CAPITAL ROUNDUP-Perry
Simms, assistant executive Of
ficer of Interiors Geological
Survey, has been selected as
the winner Of the National
Federation of Federal EN-
plOyes' annual merit award for
sustained and outstanding serv-
ice to the union. A longtime
NFFE member, Mr.. Simms is
presently president of its Local
2. Bernard Gladieux, former
top Government career official
who now is a partner in the
management consultant firm
of Booz. Allen & Hamilton.
has been named chairman of
the executive committee of the
National Civil Service League.
Harry Fite has been ap-
pointed director of Govern
ment marketing planning for
Remington Rand Univac. Rich
ard Mock was named manager
of Remington Rand Univac's
Federal Government civilian
agencies program.

will undoubtedly be scaled
down.
Also, in order to distribute
the pay raises where it feels it
would do the most good, the
administration may go for a
separate pay schedule for en-
gineers and scientists and other
professionals engaged in this
type Of work, feeling that the
greater share Of the pay raises
should go to them.
Under such a plan, other
classified employees would not
be neglected, but their increases
would not be as much as those
involved in scientific projects.
y y
CRUMBS NOT WANTED
Meanwhile. Government and
postal employe unions, which
swing the most weight on Cap
itol Hill as far as pay raise
drives are concerned, are deter
mined that the average Federal
and postal employe should get
a fair share of any pay raise.
Employees in the lower and
middle brackets are in greater
need of pay raises than those
in the top levels, they declare.
The National Postal Union, for
example, has served notice that
it will not be satisfied with any
crumbs" for postal workers.
From the administration
standpoint, h owever even
though undoubtedly it will sup
port some pay raise for CLASH
fled and postal workers-the
kind of salary increase that
will do the Government the
most good is one that will give
the most substantial pay raises
to key scientific and profes-
sional employees.
Thus, Congress, the admins
tration and Government and
postal employe unions are
faced with conflicting views
and goals as far as a pay raise
next year is concerned.
Some feel that Mr.. Miller's
bill could be the answer. Sub
stantial but not tremendously
large increases could be given

forced out because of his sue
cessful campaign for voting
rights and desegregated eating
conditions for Negroes.
In his statement today, Post
master General Day said:
Il would not want a person
with Laws record of conduct
delivering mail to my family's
home. Some of Mr.. Laws par
tisans feel otherwise or at
least, for political reasons, pur-
port to feel otherwise.
THE action of the impartial
review board, with two Negroes
among its three members, con-
firmed that the charges against
Law were by no means trivial.
The board unanimously recon-
mended a strong reprimand
with one member urging that
Law be fired"
Mr.. Day said there had been
a clearly evident campaign
here to twist admitted facts
into false conclusions"
Public Attack Cited
He said Mr.. Law originally
was dismissed by new postal
officials who did not know the
letter carrier also was an
NAACP leader and that a Con-
gresham had repeatedly ex-
pressed strong opinions against
him in 1860. He said Mr.. Laws
partisans launched a violent
public attack upon the de-
partment" without allowing
personnel appeal procedures to
operate.
Mr.. Day said it 'is apparent
To me that this vitriolic cam
paign was solely for the pur-
pose of attempting to frighten
me into suppressing the charges
against Law and into practic-
ing reverse discrimination In
bypassing the departments

and their procedures, and its
point that an embassy level
marriage between an American
girl and Russian boy might be
just the tranquilizer the world
needs.
Mr.. Ustinov does not care
whether or not anyone believes
this much in international
romance. His intention is rather
that it shall be laughed at. The
play served this latter purpose
very well indeed. The film,
starring Mr.. Ustinov, undoubt-
edly will do the same.
Concordia, an inspirationally
christened mythical country, is
the setting of "Romanoff and
Juliet" Actually it is a hill
town in Italy north of Rome,
the perfect intimation of q
microscopic country and as
romantic in atmosphere as
Verona, where Romeo and
Juliet met in Shapespeare.
Although Concordia is not
on any map, Mr.. Ustinov as
its president puts it in the
world headlines by refusing to
break a tie vote in the United
Nations. Spurning any judg-
ment on this amendment to an
amendment, he flies home in
what looks like a late 1920s
model of a tri-motored Ford.
Back in his own comic opera
playground and fed up with
the bad manners of great pow
ers, he maneuvers the daughter
of the American ambassador
and the son Of the Russian
mission head into deathlesS
love.
Mr.. Ustinov, a bearded Pan,
wrote. directed and stars in
the film as he did in the play.
His toughest problem in the
new treatment is in the direc-
ton. This is the chore with
which he is least familiar. AS
a result of this inexperience
behind the camera, Mr.. Ustinov
achieves contradictory effects
1t is smart of him. for exam
pie, to open UP the narrative

THE PASSING SHOW
Apex Force Lompoons
Cold War Diplomacy
BY JAY CARMODY
Drama Critic Of The Star

Peter Ustinov the froicsome in the entertain
ment field has now made his Romanoff and Juliet available
to the much larger audience that to the cinema Spe

to suit the much larger play
ing area available to him. On
the other hand, the spread of
his cheerful pointed little IA
BILE has a tendency to thin
what we're some Of its best eff
fects in the stage version.
Against any such technical
bubble, however, Mr.. Ustinov
proceeds with both the re-
sourcefulneSs and confidence Of
a satirist who knows how to
design new masks for old jokes.
His American and Russian am
bassadors are baSically cliches,
the first brashly confident that
money will buy anything in
GLIDING a small country; the
second a clustering bully.
Mr.. Ustinov, however, ven
lures to freShen up their pos
lures with redeemingly fresh
dialogue, a sample Of which
is the Russian ambassadors
wife's question when he asks
her to turn around: Are you
going to shoot me-" she wants
to know. not fearfully. but from
a weary sense Of duty to the
state.
Apart from AKIN Tamiroff
as the Russian envoy and Diane
Clouzot MRS. Ustinov) as a
member of Russian naval in
telligence, Director UStinov has
cast "Romanoff and Juliet"
non-competitively. He visibly
counts upon his own perform
ance to carry the film, and
with every good reason.
1t is at its best when he is
on camera, which is most of
the time. The film is at it's
worst when John Gavin
and Sandra Dee are giving
wooden limitations of the Ro-
manoff and Juliet Of the title.
Gavin actually adds a comic
dimension to the film with his
mercurially slipping attempts
at dialect.
