Big Lead In Dominican Republic Free Election

SANTO DOMINGO R = The left-leaning Dominican Revolution ary party surged into an impres- sive early lead today in unofficial returns from the Dominican Re public's first free election in 38 years.
 Returns compiled by independ- ent newspapers and radio stations showed refor1n-minded Juan Bosch running far in front of Dr. Viriato Fiallo of the Conservative Civic Union in the race for president.
 While unofficial returns showed the trend favorable to the Revolu- tionary party, there was no recent barometer upon which observers could make definite predictions of the outcome.

Each Spent
81 Million

SACRAMENTO. Calf. Dec,
IL (AP).-It cost about 81
million to run for Governor
of California this year.
That was officially reported
as the cost Of the campaigns
of both Democrat Edmund q,

paign.
Nixon committees reported
post-primary expenditure of
$1.572,664 in his losing cam
paign. Brown committees re-
ported 81 .482, 206.
The Nixon camp said 1t had
enough contributions to leave
q $36,024 surplus. The Brown
people showed q deficit OF
$l0l, 495, to be offset by q
new Embarrassing campaign and
an $4,000 surplus from the pri-
mary.
During the campaign, Demo-
Gratis charged that Mr.. Nixon
was spending "a scandalous
81 ,440, 900" in what they called

BY JOSEPH YOUNG
Star Staff Writer

49,
Congress has adopted q
strong provision ordering Gov
ernment Departments and agen-
scies to absorb as much of the
cost of the Federal classified
and postal employe pay raise
as possible by reducing the
number of Government jobs.
The provision in the pay
raise legislation has much more
teeth in it than cost-absorbtion
provisions contained in pay
raise legislation of previous
years.
Whereas Congress in past pay
raises inserted a general in
struction to agencies to absorb
as much of the pay raise costs
as possible, the provision in
the new pay raise is much more
specific and binding on the
agencies. Incidentally. Pres
ident Kennedy is expected to
sign the bill today or tomor-
row.
While stating that nothing in
the provision requires the dis
missal of employees, Congress
has instructed agencies to re-
view carefully each job vacancy
caused by resignation. retire
ment, death. etc, and to de-
termine whether the job can
be abolished or its duties as
signed to other employees.
To enforce this Congress pro-
vided that no agency request
for additional or supplemental
appropriations to cover the pay
raise costs shall be transmitted
to Congress unless it is accom-
panied by a certification from
the Budget Bureau that the
amounts requested are neces-
sary for the continued opera
ton of essential functions of
the agency involved.
Since all departments and
agencies will have to submit
supplemental appropriation re-
quests early next year to Con-
gress to cover at least some of
the pay raise costs, they will
be in the position of having to
satisfy the Budget Bureau and
Congress that they have abb
sorbed as much of the pay costs
as possible through job reduc-
tions.
The provision involved reads:
"(a) The departments. agen-
cies, establishments, and cor
porations in the executive
branch shall absorb the costs
of the increases in basic COM
pensation provided by this act
to the fullest extent possible
without seriously affecting the
immediate execution Of essen
tial functions.
Cb) No request for additional

The estate of Charles B.

Star staff Writer

The new Chief Of Staff of
the Army asked for a larger
Army in his first public speech
today.
Gen. Earle G. Wheeler
did it, moreover, in a way
that could only please his
bosses, Secretary of the Army
Vance and Secretary Of De-
fense Mcnamara.
He pointed out that the
strength that counts is the
actual combat force. The Army
should reduce its non-combat
spending, he said, get as much
for its $i2 billion a year as
possible in divisional strength
and then try for more money.
"A fiscally prodigal service
does not deserve, nor can it ex-
pect to receive, the fatted-calf
treatment from the American
people and their Government,
Gen. Wheeler told the conven-
ton here of the Association of
the United States Army.
Would Curb Callups
He made it clear that he be-
lieves the Army is too small.
The general level Of active
Army strength needed to per-
form its proper role in today's
situation must be such that we
are capable Of handling con-
current major crises in widely
separated areas of the world
without having to recall our
ready reservists except under
conditions of actual or clearly
imminent hoStilities," he said.
The President was granted
power by Congress this fall to
call reservists If the Berlin.
