Federal and postal employe
pay raise prospects continue to
brighten as the Senate Post
Office and Civil Service Com
mittee shows every indication
Of acting expeditiously on Pres
ident Kennedy's must" postal
rate increase legislation.
Mr.. Kennedy has let it be
known that, to paraphrase a
famous Chinese laundryman's
policy: No postal rate increase,
no pay raise.
Although Chairman john
ston of the Senate Committee
previously has been cool to
postal rate increase legislation
1.-THE House already has ap-
proved it,, he is going full
speed ahead on postal rate
hearings. The committee is
holding hearings on Thursday
and again next Tuesday. There
are definitely no stalling tao
tics involved. The committee
already has held several hear
ings on the measure.
The expectation is that the
committee will finish it's postal
rate hearings early next month
and report out a bill. Senate
approval is considered certain.
Once this is done, pay raise
legislation Will move quickly
Chairman Murray of the House
Civil Service Committee will
schedule pay hearings as soon
as the Senate acts on the postal
rate legislation so dear to his
and the administrations heart.
The Senate group, which is
simultaneously holding Gov
eminent pay raise hearings,
had hoped to wind up the pay
hearings yesterday. However, it
would not get permission to
hold an afternoon session and
will have to hold one more day
Of hearings, probably late next
week or the first week in
April.
At yesterdays session, John
Snyder, president of the Ma
tional Association of Postmas-
tiers Of the United States, urged
a compromise on the admins
tration's timetable proposal fol-
pay raises. He urged that pay
raises become effective this
July l on a two-step basis
with the second installment Of
the increase taking effect or
July l, 1868. The administra-
tons proposal calls for 6
three year installment plar
raise. with the first increase

Some officials suggested the
possibility Of a summit meet
ing early this summer is an
other factor working to keep
reservists in uniform. They
said reserve rehabilitation
around that time might be
taken by the Russians as a sign
of weakness.
At the height of the Berlin
crisis last summer, Congress
authorized Mr.. Kennedy to
call up to 250,0o0 men for as
much as a year Of service.
Ali but a few thousand Of the
more than $4,000 kept for
crisis duty came on active serv-
ice in October - about $4,000
on October / and another
73, 900 on october Is.
At the same time, the Pen
tagon took a number of other
steps to build up United States
strength, particularly in
ground forces.
AS a result, the United States
had 2,849.116 men under arms
as of February 1-352,121 more
than last August !.

Senate Adopts Raise
In JobIess Pay Benefit

only to $2s under the compro-
mise.
Employers won a chance for
both a delay and slight reduc-
ton in their "tax" payments
making up the fund from
which unemployment compen-
Sation is drawn.
Conferees allowed interest on
the fund to be credited proper
tionately to employers &C
counts. This could delay high
er charges on an employer be-
cause his compensation account
balance helps fix the amount
he owes the fund.
Also, conferees reduced by
one-tenth Of percent the en-
ployer's tax ratio-figured on
his account balance and his
employee payroll. This means
he could carry a smaller bal
ance in his compensation fund
and pay his workers higher
wages without increasing his
jobless pay taxes"
UnsOlved Problem
The question Of how to han
die persons who quit, were
fired or refused to take suit
able jobs defied agreement.
Conferees fell back on the pres
ent law barring benefits for S
to 10 weeks to anybody in one
of the three qualifying" cir
cumstances.
Employers would be allowed
to make voluntary contribu-
tons to the compensation fund,
a proviso in both the original
Senate and House bills.

The Senate today unani-
mously adopted q conference
report to raise benefits for the
jobless in the District to a
maximum Of SAT weekly for up
to "a weeks.
Weekly payments would
amount to so per cent Of the
average wage of private and
District government employees,
refigured annually. Now, un-
employed persons may draw
$50 a week for up to 26 weeks.
The House was expected to
act promptly, perhaps this
afternoon, on the unanimous
recommendation Of conferees.
Congressional sponsors of the
long-delayed bill want to put
the compensation law adjust
mentS on President Kennedy's
desk before the end Of the
month, so that new benefits
can begin April /. Compensa-
ton is computed quarterly. If
the bill becomes law after
April /, new pay schedules be-
come effective July i.
Met Yesterday
Senator Morse, Democrat of
Oregon. and Representative
Davis. Democrat of Georgia,
led conferees to a compromise
at an unannounced session yes
terday afternoon. The Senate
had passed a bill acceptable to
labor and the House had ap-
proved another to meet bust
ness interests.
BY accepting the Senate pay
formula, House conferees won
their ideas for discouraging
loafers and easing employer
payments into the compensa-
ton fund, now totaling $62 mil
lion.
The conference report elimi-
mated so-called double dips"
and limited "step backs" to
Illustrate those who might pre-
fer doles to jobs.
A double dip" is the use by
a recipient in two successive
years of overlapping periods of
wage earnings to determine his
rate of jobless pay.
A "step back" is a means Of
figuring benefit rates on the
basis Of a mans high quarter
ly and total yearly earnings.
How Step-Back Works
For example, If he should be
entitled to $50 because of his
quarterly earnings, but not his
years wages, officials would
step back" to $29 to match
the ratio against his years
wages. If the $29 weren't justi-
fled. they would "step back"

possible release for reservists
and guardsmen starting in
August, when the first Of two
new regular Army divisions is
expected to become combat
ready.
From Mr.. Kennedy on down,
officials have sought to avoid
pinpointing any target date for
obilizing reservists and
gtiardsmen because they con-
slider the Berlin crisis which
promoted the Gallup to be still
very much alive. .,...
Only yesterday, Gen. George
u, Decker, the Army Chief of
Staff, ordered his commanders
to impress on the reservists and
guardsmen they are needed on
active duty because, he said,
this country is "in a very real
sense at war" with the Com
muniStS.
Gen. Decker-acting in the
wake Of new unrest among re-
servists at several Army posts
stressed that Soviet efforts
to harass air traffic in the
corridors to West Berlin has
heightened tension there and
that the situation in South Wet
Nam is very serious.

not to become effective until
next January /.
William T. Vaughn, president
or the National League Of Post
masters, urged the committee
not to approve any one Of the
various pay bills sponsored in
Congress but to combine the
best features Of them all in
order to bring out a bill that
would reflect true compatibility
between postal salaries and
those in industry.
Tommy Martin, president Of
the National Rural Letter Car
riers' Association, criticized the
administrators pay proposals
as inadequate. He Endorsed the
Morrison bill that would give
postal workers an average IA
per cent raise. although he
asked that it be amended to
n emove certain inequities
among rural letter carriers.

INTERNAL REVENUE-The
Senate Appropriations Com
mittee in reporting the 1868
Treasury-Post Office bill has
given Internal Revenue Service
enough funds to hire 1871 ad-
ditional agents and other per-
sonnet. The House voted funds
to hire only 1897 new jobs.
The differences will have to be
settled in HouSe-Senate con-
ference.

APPROVED-T The House has
approved and sent to the Sen
ate the bill to permit all Fed
eral employees to recover losses
of personal property related to
their Government work.
Under the Dill (HR-1035D
employees could claim losses UP
to $500. Most claims arise
when property is damaged OF
lost in transit when employees
transfer from one duty station
to another at the convenience
of the Government. Civilian
employees of the military agen-
cies already can present claims
for personal property loss. The
bill would extend this right tc
other Federal workers as well

House Votes

For D. {. Zoo
BY JOHN McKELWAY
Star staff Writer

4
The Washington Zoo has
emerged from the House with
its budget intact.
Passed by a voice vote after
mold debate yesterday was q
1858 million money bill for the
| interior Department and re.
lated Federal agencies, includ.
ing SAL million for the Zoo.
The bill includes, in the
budget of the National Park
Service, $2.8 million for the
construction Of a bypass and
tunnel in Rock Creek to take
| traffic out, Of the Zoo.
Then, in the budget of the
Smithsonian Institution, the
House allowed:
$1.3 million to begin a 10
year capital improvement pro-
gram, including reconstruction
Of several animal cages, the
bird building and the relocation
of the east-weSt road from
Connecticut avenue to Harvard
street NV.
| Zoo Plans Approved
/ Today, the Fine Arts Com
mission approved first-stage
plans for the 10-year program
of improvements to the Zoo
including $3,75O,OO0 worth OF
work proposed to start this
summer.
Also approved by the COM
mission were plans for CONVEX
sion of the old Patent Office
at Seventh and F streets to a
National Portrait Gallery that
will also house the National
Collection of Fine Arts.
Remodeling Of the early
Washington Greek-style struc-
ture designed by Robert Mills
is scheduled to begin in the fall
Of 1868. It is now occupied by
the Civil Service Commission,
which will have a new head
quarters at Nineteenth and E
streets NV. by August, 1868.
Transportation Question
The only Washington-area
topic which drew any attention
in the House yesterday was the
$3.4 million earmarked for the
National Capital Transporta-
ton Agency.
The House also went along
with the full Appropriations
Committee which had recon-
mended against buying up land
across from Mount Vernon at
a cost Of 1897. 900 in Federal
funds. Prospects of a sewage
treatment plant going up
across the river from the front
porch of Mount Vernon led
Congress last year to author
lie the appropriation. The COM
mittee felt the view will not be
marred if the plant is built
further up Piscataway Greek.
AS Bill Stands
The bill, as it stands now,
calls for the following appro-
priations locally:
National Capital Planning
Commission-$625,00 900 for the
planning and development of
the National Capital area
Dropped was $1.2 million to
continue the purchase Of stream
valley parks in the surrounding
counties. The program was
originally initiated in 1881 but
has been dropped for the last
! two years by the House.
