AS a House Civil Service Sub
committee wound up hearings
on the bill, Representative
Wallhauser, Republican of New
Jersey, asked csc Chairman
Macy II the administration
preferred the 30-55 bill over
the legislation to allow full re-
tirement after 80 years service
regardless Of age.
Mr.. Macy said the 30-55 bill
was the preferable one. al
though his testimony opposed
enactment of either formula.
After the hearing, a top adj
ministration official remarked
that this is something that
Congress will have to decide
and which we will leave up to
its Judgment"
Thus, although the admins
tration still is opposed officially
TO any liberalization Of earlier
retirement, the impression was
left that 1t might be leaving
the door slightly ajar for some
liberalization. However, COM
plicating the situation is the
fact that the administration is
insisting that the Govern
ment's contribution to the
deficit-ridden civil service re-
tirement fund be increased be-
fore any retirement benefits
are liberalized.
Both the House and Senate
Civil Service Committees have
announced hearings will be held
on the bill to improve the
retirement funds financing,
and 1t could be that the 30-55
provision will be included in
this legislation.

Despite growing criticism,
the Kennedy administration
has no intention of backing
down from its program to open
up more promotional and job
opportunities for Negroes in
Government.
This was made emphatically
clear by Civil Service Commits
sion Chairman John. Macy who
yesterday told the AFL-CIO
United Federation Of Postal
Clerks:
I'VE mean business. Equal
employment and promotion OPP
portunities for Negroes and
other minority groups in Gov
eminent must become a real
ity."
The UFPC has been critical
Of the administrators policies.
Addressing the pay raise con-
ference Of the UFPC at the
Willard Hotel, Mr.. Macy de-
hberately departed from the
original intent of his speech to
speak on racial discrimination.
The UFPC has charged the
Kennedy administration was
bypassing merit and seniority
principles in promoting Negroes
over better-qualified white en-
ployes.
Only yesterday the groups

effort to force the Post Office
Department to follow its merit

mote three Negroes as super
visors.

cal attitude, its current pay
conference has been picketed

Put at $500 Million

| ~ WV Sf@AAA
The additional cost for thrust
reversers to slow the General
Dynamics plane. according to
testimony before the Subcom-
mittee, would exceed $500 mill
lion.
Senator Mundt, Republican
Of South Dakota, cited figures
which he said indicated that
the cost Of the Tx already is
Creeping up" according to Air
Force requests for funds. He
said the figures indicated that
There has been an increase Of
1924 million in the estimated
cost for research, development
and production Of % planes
since General Dynamics was
awarded a letter contract last
December. The total contract
is expected to exceed $6.5
billion.
The Senator said this indi-
Gated that this wonderful cost
realism failed to reflect itself
when 1t comes down to the
matter Of really getting the
merchandise" He referred to
one of the principal reasons
advanced by the civilian Sec
retaries for awarding the con-
tract to General Dynamics.
Earlier, the subcommittee
released testimony challenging
the Pentagon's claim that Boe-
ing submitted an Enthusiastically
low bid. With an Air Force
pricing specialist as the witness,
the subcommittee delved into
the Tx costs and came up
with figures indicating:
/. Boeing was able to submit
a lower bid despite higher ma
terial costs than General Dy-
namics Corp, the winning COM
petitor, because of lower labor
and overhead costs.
2. Labor rates in Wichita,
Kans., where Boeing proposed
to build the Tx, averaged 70
cents less an hour than in Fort
Worth, Tex, where General
Dynamics will produce the
supersonic fighter plane for
Air Force and Navy use.
The Senate subcommittee ex-
plored figures with Warner r.
Wilson, an Air Force specialist.
Mr.. Wilson was unable to
supply detailed figures backing
up Air Force estimates that,
while Boeing's bid was dover,
that Of General Dynamics was
more realistic.
Subcommittee Counsel Je-
rome Alderman pointed out
that Beings bid for research
and developments and the PRO-
duction Of the first % Tx
planes was $131 million less
than General Dynamics'.
On the to'al program for the
production of 1,700 aircraft,
Mr.. Alderman said, General
Dynamics' proposal was S.

Use Your Hedges
To Control Snow
BY GEORGE E. CREED
Contributino Writer

An improperly placed hedge
or fence can result in a heavy
deposit Of snow on a walk or
driveway, but better placed, a
hedge or fence can control
the drift onto such areas.
Drift along exposed
stretches Of railroads and
highways has been con-
trolled, at least to q certain
extent, by snow fences -
wooden stats wired together.
Such fencing is flexible and
can be rolled up and stored.
As a temporary measure. 1t
can be used on a small prop
erty. but taking 1t down and
erecting 1t each year Is q
nuisance. Besides, 1t will not
add to the beauty Of your
home.
Better looking and less
bothersome means of con-
trolling snow drift are to be
found in regular fences and
hedges. Locations for these
should be studied carefully.
Otherwise, you may aggra-
vate your problem instead Of
solving 1t.
With so many variables
existing between properties,
there are no pat solutions or
formulas to determine barrier
locations. This requires OBJ
servation on your part at a
time when the prevailing
wind is blowing after snow
has fallen. You then can see
what happens to snow blown
across your property and es-
innate where q barrier will
be most effective.
