II Bodies
Brought Out
OfCouI Mine

CARTERVILLE, ILL.,, Jan. IL
(AP) Rescue workers today
brought to the surface the last
of IL bodies of miners who
perished Wednesday in an eX-
plosion in Mine No. 2 of the
Blue Blaze Coal Co.
Clergymen, relatives and a
few wives identified the bodies
one by one. The wives of the
victims were urged not to look
at the charred bodies of the
coal miners who died, appar-
emily instantly, in a soaring
explosion 1853 feet underground.
The blast, Coroner Paul Lin
ton said, APPARENTLY was CON
fined to a single fireball that
burned only for an instant as
it swept through the mine. But
its heat was sufficient to burn
the heavy clothing of all the
workers"
He said it may take several
days to pump enough fresh air
into the mine to make possible a
closer examination of the shaft.
filled with dust and rubble.
Lethal gases had delayed re-
moval of the bodies.
The mine is in a rural area
in this Southern Illinois COM
munity of some 2,700, about IS

NAT0 Missiles
To Be Pressed
By the Associated Press

President Kennedy will ask
Congress next week for money
to start developing a new mid
range balliStic missile that
could be fired from trucks,
railroad cars or bargeS, in
formed sources said today.
The mobile missile would be
intended for use by North At
lantic Treaty Organization
forces in Europe.
Pentagon planners also are
thinking of the possibilities of
manning it overseas by Amer
lean forces.
Sources said the new solid
fuel missile would be designed
for a range comparable to that
of the 1,500-mile Thor and
Jupiter, early liquid fuel inter-
mediate range ballistic missiles
which this country has fur
nlShed to Britain and Italy in
limited numbers.
Fired from Britain, France
or Germany, the new midrange
weapon presumably would be
able to strike into Russia be-
yond Moscow and to blanket
the East European Red Satel-
lites. Launched from Okinawa,
for example, it could hit most
of Red China and into Siberia.
The first money requested
for the new missile, included
in Mr.. Kennedy's defense
budget for the coming fiscal
year, is believed to total less
than $100 million.
Ultimately, the cost of the
program may come to ST bill
lion or more.

cial aid and by protecting their
pension and seniority rights.
Eliminate job discrimination
based on race, creed, age or sex.
Provide jobs through public
works.
Shorter Hours Rejected
The committee rejected the
idea of reducing hours of work
on a broad scale to spread en-
ployment, although it said
shorter hours may become de-
Sirable in the future.
AFL-CIO President George
Meany and other labor mem
bers of the committee insisted
in footnotes that hours of work
will have to be shortened
through collective bargaining
and by law unless unemploy-
ment is reduced substantially
very soon.
Arthur F. Burns, president of
the National Bureau of Eco
nomic Research, and Henry
Ford II, board chairman of the
Ford Motor Co., filed dissentS.
DR.. Burns, who was chair
man of the Council of Economic
Advisers during part of the
Eisenhower administration, OBJ
jected that the report exagger-
ated the role of technology in
causing unemployment.
Ford DiSSentS
He also warned that the
committees proposals could
hurt the economy by raising
employer costs and Govern
ment expenditures too high.

Star Staff Writer

President Kennedy's Govern
ment pay reform" proposals
that he will send to Congress
shortly are expected to be modi-
fled from those originally pro-
posed by the Budget Bureau.
The pay raise proposals for
upper-middle and top salaried
employees are expected to be a
little less than first contem-
plated, and the increases for
postal workers and lower sal
aried employees slightly higher
than first proposed.
Mr.. Kennedy told Congress
yesterday he will soon send his
Government pay raise pro-
posal.
Actually, the President used
the word pay reform" rather
than pay raise" in an obvious
effort to sell the proposal to
Congress as a reform move to
put Federal salaries on a more
comparable basis with industry,
rather than as an out-and-out
pay raise.
But whatever the Semantics
involved, the fact is that it will
be a pay raise that will cost
we'll over 81 billion. Congress
will not miss this fact.
However, the administration
will try to sell Congress on the
argument that the cost will be
we'll worth while in TIT it will
enable the Government to at
tract and retain the best pos
sible people in these vital times
The administration will urge
that the increases be stretched
over a three-year period tt
spread out the cost, although
after the three years the addi-
tional cost will have to bt
borne on an annual basis.
There are strong indication!
that the huge pay raises pro
posed for top bracket civil serv
ice careeriSts-up to 70 pc
cent for those in the top grade
will be scaled down by tn,

Furthermore, he said, some Of
the proposals might make un-
employment attractive.
Mr.. Ford agreed with DR..
Burns that the committee was
too fearful of chronological
progress. He said the proposals
on training and employment
services would accomplish lit
tie in the absence of programs
to create more jobs by expand
ing the economy.
The automobile executive
blamed high wages and other
costs for reducing investment
incentives and thus limiting
expansion of job opportunities.

sented from the committee

standards to- liberalize unem-

New Shakeup
Due for Army;
Fight Is Seen
BY the Associated Press


Army's command and admin
iStrative structure is on the way
and, as usual, a row is brewing
This will be the latest of a
series of major and minor re-
shuffleS since the end of World
War II.
Under the plan, reported to
have received the approval of
President Kennedy, some posts,
including those at the head of
several technical services, would
be abolished. The Importance
of some others would be
leSsened.
The reorganization plan for
the Army apparently relates
directly to Secretary of Defense
McNamara's high interest in
revamping management of the
whole Pentagon establishment
Officers Called In
The Army Mayfair Force
Journal said today that Gen
George H. Decker, Army Chief
Of Staff, had called in some
dissatisfied officers and told
them they had their oppor-
tunity to register objections
while the plan was being form
ulated and that now they are
expected to support it.
/ But, said The Journal, one
of those expected to express his
views if called before Capitol
Hill committees is 1t. Gen.
John H. HinrichS, chief of
ordnance. His would be one Of
the abolished offices.
Along with the ordnance
chiefs office, the program
would end the office of chief
of the Chemical Corps and
would doWngrade other tech
nical branch chiefs except the
chief of Army Engineers and
the Army surgeon general.
| The Defense Department and
Army officials may have de-
cided to leave the office of
chief of Army Engineers un-
touched for a certain reason
1t runs rivers and harborS and
other non-military construc-
ton, a matter of high interest
in congressional circles.
/ Explanation to Public
ForeSeeing at least some op-
position in Congress, the Army
and Defense Department are
now preparing to explain the
reorganization program to the
public before Congress moves
into the picture. Prospects are
that it will be subject for dis
cusSion at one or more news
conferences.
One of the first administra =
tive and headquarters command
reorganizations of the Army
came in connection with the
service unification program in
1948.
In 1854, the Army adopted
what it said was a "compre-
hensive plan for reorganiza-
tion," resulting from changes in
the character, size and COM
plexity of the Army establish
ment.
The following year there
were a series of internal or
ganizational adjustments" In
1859, changes were made which
involved consolidating some
offices and shifting response
bilities of others.
Evening star., 1962-01-12

REACTION-The initial re-
action of Congress is one of
apathy and even hostility to
the thought of giving classi-
fled employees another pay
raise, particularly those in the
upper brackets. Any pay raise
sentiment to be found is in IA
vor of postal workers.
However, a modest pay raise
for classified employees, riding
on the coattails Of postal work.
ers, seems to be in the cards
this year, although nowhere
near the grand scale envisioned
by the administration on behalf
of its top executives-career-
lists and political appointees
alike.
Congress is well-aware that
in this election year the "a
million Government and postal
workers, together with the
members of their families, make
up sizable voting blocs in their
States and congressional dis
tricts. Consequently, sentime. t
can be expected to build Up
during the next few months in
favor of postal and Govern
ment pay raises, although on
a modest scale.
Members of Congress do not
want to antagonize their con-
stituents by voting large raises
for Federal workers. Even the
most liberal members of Con-
gress, some of whom represent
areas where unemployment is a
serious problem, are opposed to
giving big raises, particularly
the kind first proposed by ad-
ministration officials for tor
career employees.
D.. Conservative members of
Congress are worried about
initiation and the adverse affect
that Federal pay raises might
have in setting a national in
flationary wage pattern. Also
they are opposed to spending G
billion dollars or more for pay
raises at this time.
Thus, postal and Government
employe unions have their work
cut out for them, even though
some kind of a salary increase
this year seems in the offing.

in its first formal report yes
terday.
. But the benefits of modern
technology must be won with
out sacrificing human values, -
the committee said, calling for
a broad program Of private and
governmental action to help
workers who falter in their con-
test with machines.
The program proposed by the
2l-member committee - with
diSsentS - contains no n W
ideas. All the recommendations
have been discussed widely by
theorists and politicians, and
many of them parallel the
Presidents own economic pro-
grams.
Watered Down
But the committees report
could be significant because it
was approved by leaders Of both
labor and management, al
though the proposals were wa
tered down to achieve a con-
SenSus.
Mr.. Kennedy established the
committee last February, with
Labor Secretary Goldberg as
chairman, Commerce Secretary
Hodges as vice chairman, five
other public" members, seven
representatives Of management
and seven labor leaders. The
President established the COM
mittee to advise him and to pro-
mote harmony between labor
and management.
He discussed yesterdays re-
port with the committee for
about an hour and a half and
issued a statement indicating
approval of the recommended
tionS in principle.
Ranging beyond automation
in the strict Sense-use of au-
tomato machines and processes
to replace human workers-the
committee covered technology
cal progress broadly.
Programs Recommended
The panel observed that
modern technology relieves
workers of burdens, increases
production and speeds eco
nomic growth. at the same
time, the committee noted
chronological progress causes
unemployment by making skills
obsolete and by producing more
goods with fewer workers.
Mostly in vague terms, the
committee recommended poll
cies and programs to:
Increase jobs by stimulating
faster economic growth.
Improve public employment
services.
Strengthen general and vo-
cational education.

THE FEDERAL SPOTLIGHT
Modified Version Of Pay Reform
Expected to Temper Top Raises

likely to approve legislation
giving top civil service career
employees $4,000 annual SAL
aries, nor do they favor giving
assistant secretaries and others
salaries up to $4,000 a year.
This fact has not been lost
on the administration.
Nor has the administration
lost sight of the political fact
of life that Congress will balk
at giving pay raises to civil
service careeriStS and other
officials in the top grades,
without giving salary increases
to rank-and-file classified and
postal workers.
Y = Il
WORKABLE PROPOSALS
Consequently, the administra-
ton is expected to submit to
Congress a more workable plan,
which would give less of an
increase to top-bracket career
employees and other officials
although still SubStantial-and
slightly more of an increase
than first proposed for postal
workers and lower-salaried
classified employees.
The original Budget Bureau
proposal was for a total pay
raise for postal workers over a
three-year period of 71a per
cent. A somewhat similar three
year total raise for lower
salaried classified employees was
also proposed.
This brought strong protest.
from postal and Government
employe leaders.
1t also brought reaction from
Congress, which is we'll aware
that there are much more
votes among rank-and-f file Fed
eral and postal employees, thai
from the comparatively few
top-Salaried career employees.
In his state-of the -Uniol
