Pay Raise
With STRINGS
Is Proposed

No member Of Congress OF
other top-level Government Of
fetal could be given the $40, 600
pay increase proposed in the
House until the Federal budget
is balanced. under a proposal
made today by Senator John
J. Williams. Republican of
Delaware.
The House bill would raise
the pay Of members Of Con-
gress from $22.50o to $S2.500
with comparable increases for
the cabinet and the Supreme
Court.
Surely no private company
would give so per cent salary
increases to its top executive
officers and directors when the
management had produced but
six balanced budgets in the
past 80 years." said Senator
Williams.
The Senator, In a reference
to the Kennedy administration,
said he was confident that
New Frontiersmen" would not
object to making the raise con-
ditional on q balanced budget
because they are claiming their
spending and tax-cutting poll
cies are going to produce a
balanced budget by speeding
up the economy.

ALGIERS, Nov. / (AP.-

THE FEDERAL SPOTLIGHT
] Key Officials Woo Murray
! To Clear Pay Bill for Action

from 2 per cent to 221a per
cent. Although the pay bill is
supposed to achieve the COM
parability principle, some of
the biggest raises are given to
the lower grades where COM
parability has already been
a achieved. Conversely, the
smallest raises are given in
some Of the upper-middle
grades which still trail badly
in comparison with industry
salaries.
Here is the percentage in
crease for Federal classified
employees, grade by grade, I'M
der the House Civil Service
Committees bill. These raises
will be in addition to the in
creases already approved for
next January / as part Of last
years Federal pay reform law.
Grade !, 8 per cent; grade z,
8 per cent; grade 3. 81; grade
4, 6.3; grade S, 81; grade 6,
So; grade Z. AZ; grade 8, 3.8;
grade 8, 2..9; grade 10, 2.3;
grade 10, 3.5: grade IA, as:
grade Is, SIS; grade is. 1914;
grade II, els; grade 10. 22.5.
Why the discriminat ion
against the middle and upper
middle grades in the House
committees bill?
For one thing, the commit
tee is strongly influenced by the
postal employe unions and the
Government employee organi-
cations. These groups have the
majority Of their members in
the lower grades and conse-
quently wanted more Of an in
creases for these employees than
proposed by the administra-
ton.

; Miners Out,
Greet Wives

BROISTEDT, Germany, Nov,
/ (AP).-Three smiling and
happy miners were reunited
with their wives today after
spending more than a week
trapped in an air pocket 259
feet underground.
Gerhard Hanusch, AZ; Emil
Pohlai, "a, and Fritz Leder, 50,
were brought up one by one
in a rescue capsule and i'm
mediately taken into a de-
compression chamber clamped
over the top Of the mine shaft.
The pressure there was lowered
gradually to that Of the at
'mosphere at ground level.
They emerged from the
chamber three hours later,
smiling and waving cheerfully
to q crowd that had anxiously
watched the rescue operation.
The miners then entered a Red
Cross tent where they met
their wives.
DR.. Horst Hartmann said the
miners condition was so good
it was hardly believable they
had spent such a long time
underground.
Further medical checkups
we're scheduled.
Mine Foreman Paul Syska
went down the rescue shaft
and helped the miners into the
little capsule. They were
hauled up from their gallery
at three minute intervals.
Syska was the last one up.
The men were trapped in a
deadend mine gallery the size

All Of the dead, who were
white, were found INSIDE the
building. Twenty-Five persons
were admitted to a hospital
with injuries. Most were treated
and later released. but eight
were listed In serious condition.
The corner drugstore was de-
molished, and windows were
broken in stores next door and
across the street. Parked auto

ing we're heavily damaged.
Leslie Blair. a photographer
for the Marietta Journal, said
he was sitting in a booth near
the rear of the store when q
bah Of flame and smoke came
up out Of the floor.
There was an explosion, and
the whole building shook" said
Mr.. Blair, who was uninjured.
81 didn't know what had hap
pened. I picked up my camera
and went out the back door
and to the front of the store.
There were bodies all over the
sidewalk"
Several high school students
were riding in a car near the
store and were among the first
to reach the scene.
There was q black puff Of
smoke and glass was thrown all
over the street." said 16-year-
old Billy Smith. Three police
men standing in front Of the
building fell flat on the side
walk"
Fire Chief Howard Shaefer
said the cause Of the explosion
had not been determined. Fire
department investigators and a
demolitionS expert from Fort
Mcpherson in Atlanta pried
through the wreckage In an
effort to determine the cause
Of the blast. Unconfirmed re-
ports indicated the explosion
may have been caused by leak
ing gas.

The King said he has in
formed United Nations Secre-
tary General u Thant, the
International Red Cross and
the Organization of African
Unity about the attack. Bit
terly, he stressed that Figuig
at no time figured in the dis
pute over the border.
ut Is unthinkable that new
fratricidal fighting should take
place in an area which has
never been contested" he said.
He has ordered the Moroccan
garrison at Figuig, consisting
Of one company, to pull back a
kilometer (six-tenths of q
mile), King Hassan said.
He added that Algerian troops
control the ridges around
Figuig, and are pounding the
town with artillery and NOR
tars. In view Of the Moroccan
pullback order the town most
likely has been occupied by
now.
Defense Minister Mahjoubi
Ahardane said the Algerian at
tack began with a strong artil-
lery bsrrage at S am. Around 6,
he said, Algerian infantry be-
gan to move toward the bat
tered town, encircling it.
The King described the at
] tack as "a diabolical plan" to

to the surface after being
trapped IL days.
In the rescue operation here
an air lock chamber had to be
constructed at the top Of the
drill shaft to prevent dissipa-
ton Of the higher than-normal
air pressure in the cubicle in
which the miners were trapped.
This would have allowed water
to rush in as the rescue drill
broke through.
Announcement Of the break
through early this morning
brought shouts and tears Of
Joy from the hundreds Of per-
sons who had kept q vigil at
the head Of the shaft.

by his committee.
Mr.. Murray voted against the
bill when its provisions were
agreed to on Wednesday, and
then voted present" - taking
no stand-when the group off,

day. Incidentally, the vote on
the bill Wednesday was Is to 8
in favor, and yesterday was Il

Committee he Is the only one
who can go before the House

wise, the bill would remain
buried in the House Rules

bill discharged from the House

majority Of the members of
the House, method success
fully used in the past on pay

A village plat was de- veloped, families selected lots for their homes and lots were set aside for the Bureau of Indian Affairs School, a native store and ware houses, a village hall and two mis- sions. Prior to the move, logs were cut and a saWnill was moved from Holikachuk to the new site,
 The Alaska State Housing Authority offered assistance in building the houses and the vil- lage accepted. The Alaska State Housing Authority was to help de velop the plans, furnish finish ma terials and technical assistance. The families working together were to furnish all rough lumber for framing, subfloor and sheathing, and all labor required to construct the houses.
 On May 18th, the villagers started the move to Crawling Now, six months later, the Bureau of Indian Affairs School has been completely enclosed and will be finished by January. The Arctic Missions Rectory has been com pleted, and the Episcopal Mission
