Archdiocese of Washington.
Both dissented against pro-
posed anti-discrimination legisla-
ton in appearances before the
County Council back in jan

In Mr.. Bowen's letter of
resignation to the Council, he
expressed his conviction that
the Commission ''is not repre-
sentative of the people of the
county" and declared that "de-
cisions made or to be made by
the Commission will not truly
reflect the thinking of the
average person"
1.-The present majority of the
Commission is dedicated to the
proposition that indignation
throughout all facets of the
community must be achieved by
laws which in effect would
alter the present law of the
land'" Mr.. Bowen wrote.
Not Opposed to Indignation
He made 1t clear that he is
not opposed to Indignation on a
voluntary basis, but added that
since he is opposed to forced
association by legislation" 1t be-
came necessary for him to re-
sign.
MIR. Bowen pointed out that
the Commission supported State
anti discrimination legislation
which was defeated In Anna.

that it win support local
county ordinance 'tat the first
opportune moment, even though
the county attorneys office has
stated that the county does not
have the express power TO pass
such an ordinance"

believe that RECOMMENDATION of

been the badge of the police

Mr.. Coughlan was less out
spoken in his letter of resigna-
ton, using as the excuse for
his action "the pressure of
business" He explained that at
the time he accepted his APP
pointment last July he had not
anticipated giving so much of
his time to the Commission as
he has.
He did tell the Council that
he and the majority members
didn't think along the same
lines" and reiterated that he is
not opposed to Indignation pro.

termed serious.
The bulletin also said the

Presumably the administra-
ton, If this becomes its pro-
posal. would recommend SAL
aries of up to $45, 900 to $4,000
a year for cabinet officers.
Also, the administration would
suggest members of Congress
raise their own present $22,-
500-a-year salaries.
The question is how far the
administration will want to go
In proposing Federal classified
employe pay raises; also, what
will Congress agree to. It's
taken for granted that the ad-
ministration will recommend
general pay adjustments. But
it has to consider the cost of
such proposals before deciding
the extent of the increases.
The tentative Compatibility"
pay plan drawn by staff Off
cials would cost 1884 million a
year, but probably it will be
modified when sent to Con-
gress.
The Civil Service Commis-
sion definitely favors the
compatibility" factors in fix
ing Federal classified salaries,
whereby Government jobs
would pay the same as their
counterparts in industry.
The BIS figures are based
on preliminary findings as to
this years industry pay scales
The official BIS figures will
be released in November.
The argument stressed ir
favor of a compatibility pay
scale for Government is that II
will enable the Government tt
compete with industry for the
services and talents Of out
standing people in vital jobs.
