The Presidents cryptic mem
oEandun to the heads of all
executive departments and
agencies, dated Tuesday, was
made public by the White
House late yesterday.
It called attention to his
March 8 executive order reaf-

pigment.
without indicating any
specific activities causing his
new order, the President went
on to say:

The Civil Service Commission
has sent a proposed bill to Con-
greSS for introduction.
The legislation probably will
be introduced, but the delay Is
an indication of the feeling on
Capitol Hill that the number
Of high-paying jobs requested
is excessive. The adminiStra
ton asked for 598 additional
super-grade jobs paying SIS, ,255
to $lS.500 a year and for 203
more Public Law 313 jobs for
scientific, professional and engi-
neering and research personnel,
paying up to $4,000 a year.
Congress Is expected to ap.
prove some Of these extra Jobs,
but by no means all. The feel
ing expressed by some legis-
lators is that while some
additional super grade and Pub
lie Law 3l3 Jobs are needed to
adequately compensate key en-
ployeS, others would only be the
means Of giving raises to en-
ployeS whether or not they
deserved 1t.
POSTAL PAY MOVE-What
may turn out to be the postal

Representative Morrison, DEM
ocrat Of Louisiana, the ranking
member Of the House Civil
Service Committee.
Actually the bill is in the form
Of a postal salary reclassifica-
ton rather than an outright
pay raise. But its objectives
are the same as a flat salary
increase bill-it raises the pay
Of postal clerks and letter car
rierS and other postal workers.

gress this year, but will make q

Any move toward postal pay
adjustments will also undoubt-
edly lead to pay readjust-
ment legislation for classified
employees being introduced in
Congress. Redistribution of
the present Classification Act
could be used to bring upward
adjustments of classified en-
ploye salaries.
! Mr.. MorriSon's bill would give
postal workers pay raises of
$3.50 to $3.50. All clerks and
carriers in their present salary
level 4 would be advanced to
salary level S. 1t also would
eliminate the first two steps of
the level. Similar adjustments
would be made for other postal
workers.
Meanwhile. postal employees
are hopeful that. Congress this
year will approve a bill giving
postal workers longevity in
creases comparable to those re-
ceived by classified employees.

ate Civil Service Committee.
Mr.. Morrison and other key
members have sponsored such
legislation and Senate hearings
are due to be held soon.
TRAVEL VANCE
OKAY DUE-A House Govern
ment Operations Subcommittee
within the next week is ex-
pected to approve legisla ton
increasing the maximum daily
travel allowance Of Federal en-
ployes from the present sl2 to
SIG. Also it's expected to in
crease the present 10 cents
automobile mileage allowance
to IL cents.
At hearings held yesterday
by the subcommittee, the Ken
nedy administration supported
an increase to SIS. It opposed
changing the present 10 cents
mileage allowance. But the
usually conservative General
Accounting Office indorsed the
SIS figure although it did not
indorse raising the 10 cents
auto mileage to 10 cents.
Despite the Budget Bureaus
uring that the maximum daily
travel rate be set at SIS and
that no increase be made in the
present automobile mileage al
lowance, the subcommittee is
expected to approve the more
liberal provisions in the bill
sponsored by Representative
Granahan, Democrat Of Penn
Sylvania.
Meanwhile, a Senate Civil
Service subcommittee headed by
Senator Marlborough, Democrat
OF Texas, starts hearings on
Identical legislation on May /.

"How do you write a novel?
Do you make it up?" Eyes" f"
