THE FEDERAL SPOTLIGHT
New Pay Raise Strategy Shifts
First Hearings to House Group

Senator MCGEE, Democrat
of Wyoming, another member
Of the Senate Civil Service
Committee, also pledged his pay
raise support.
More than half the mem
bership Of the House Civil
Service Committee was on
hand, both Democrats and
Republicans, to pledge pay
raise support.
Representative Edwards,
Democrat Of California, stressed
the absolute moral commit
ment of Congress to review pay
annually" and promised 1--WE
will get the job DONE"
VIGOROUS DENIAL-At the
NALC pay raise rally, Assist
ant Postmaster General for
Personnel Richard Murphy
said he was utterly astounded''
at a report which said that the
Post Office Department was
encouraging its better-educated
employees to quit the postal
service.
Nothing is further from the
truth" declared Mr.. Murphy.
AS explained by Mr.. Murphy,
the erroneous report resulted
from a survey made by the de-
partment to find out the edu-
cational background of its
employees. The department was
surprised to find that a con-
siderable number Of its rank
and-file workers are college
graduates or those with some
college experience.
AS a result, the department
is now trying to place these
employees in postal administra-
tive and supervisory jobs wher.
ever possible. However, since
there aren't an overly supply
of jobs in relation to the
$4,000 postal employe Jobs, the
department has said 1t would
not stand in the way Of any
employees who wanted to take
executive-type jobs in Other
agencies Of the Government.
However, Mr.. Murphy said
the very last thing the depart
ment wants TO do is encourage
its better-educated employees To
leave. ION the contrary. We
are determined to do something
about the situation and give
these employees opportunities
for advancement TO better job
in the postal service, We neet

them to leave"

BY JOSEPH YOUNG

The strategy Of Government
pay raise proponents is to have
the House Civil Service Com
mittee act first in scheduling
hearings on the legislation.
Earlier plans to have the
Senate Civil Service Commit
tee act first on Federal and
postal employe pay raise legis-
lation have been revised be-
cause Of recent developments,
The civil rights legislation in
the Senate threatens to cancel
all hearings of Senate commit
tees for several months, in
GLIDING the Senate Civil Serv-
ice Committee.
Also, Senator Johnston,
Democrat of South Carolina,
chairman Of the Senate Civil
Service Committee, is one of
those most active in the civil
rights battle and hence wouldn't
be available for immediate
hearings by his group.
Consequently, pay hearings
by the House Civil Service
Committee may be expected in
the near future.
The overwhelming majority
of the House groups members
favor action on pay raise legis-
iation and even Representative
Murray, Democrat of Tennes-
see. the groups conservative
chairman, appears ready to
schedule hearings once the
administration sends its Ex-
ecutive Act salary pay raise
proposals along. The plan is to
handle Federal and postal pay
and Executive Act salaries as
a single bill.
BY the time the House grour
Is finished with hearings ano
acts on the legislation, there
still will be plenty Of time fol-
the Senate Civil Service Com
mittee to act.
The question now remains as
to what the Democratic leader
ship in House and Senate will
do once the legislation emerges
from committee. There is rea-
son to believe that sentiment
among members Of Congress
appears more favorable towarc
pay raises than was the case
a month or two ago.
The pay raise rally Of the
National Association Of Letter
Carriers appears to have made
considerable progress in en-.
listing support Of members o
Congress. although the battle
is far from won.

latest plot could mean that
the uprising was led by sup
porters of Maj. Gen. Ziad FL
Hariri, Gen. Hafez's recently
defeated rival for power in
Syria.
Hariri Exiled In July
Supporters Of Gen. Hariri
were discharged from the army
late in June and Gen. Hariri
himself was exiled to Paris July
7. There have been uncon-
firmed reports here that the
37-year-old officer had secretly
returned to Beirut and slipped
across the border into Syria.
Gen. Hariri was believed to
have a large personal follow
ing in the army among nom
Ba'Athist officers.
While Damascus was locked
in combat, the head Of the
revolutionary command, 1t.
Gen. Louay Atassi, arrived in
Egypt on a mission to PreSi-

lists and Mr.. Nasser which has
virtually killed plans for an
Arab federation Of Syria, Iraq

economy is a major objective in
its own right. 1t Is also the
primary means by which to
achieve a balance in our Fed
eral budget and in our bal
ance of payments"
The President volunteered the
good news about the Federal
budget soon after his press con-
ference began yesterday after
noon.
He said he had just received
the preliminary figures for the
fiscal year ended June 80. An
even sharper drop than the $2.6
billion administrative budget
deficit from the January esti-
mate was shown in the deficit
in the cash budget, rejecting all
the Governments payments to
and receipts from the public.
Mr.. Kennedy said the cash def
icit on June 80 was SAL bill
lion, just half what he had es-
timated in January.
Lower in 1862 M
Both the administrative and
cash budgets deficits, he said,
were lower than in the 1852
fiscal year, when the admin.
istrative budget deficit was S6.4
billion. and the cash deficit $50
billion.
The President did not at
tempt to project the improved
budget position into the new
1854 fiscal year, for which his
January budget message esti-
mated a $11.9 billion deficit.
AS well as higher tax reve-
nues than expected, he credited
spending cutbacks by the ad-
ministration for helping to re-
duce the 1868 deficit.
Since his budget message in
January, the President said his
administration has reduced re-
quests for 1868 supplemental
appropriations by nearly $3.50
million. He said nearly every
Federal agency reduced its ex-
penditures below January esti-
mates.
He added that Defense Sec
rotary McNamara's campaign
to cut costs in the defense
budget has produced 1868 saw
ings of more than 81 billion

MOSCOW, July 10 (AP)-
Big Three negotiators met late
and quit early today in theil
efforts to hammer out further
details of limited nuclear test
ban treaty,
The session at Spiridonovka
Palace lasted only one hour
and Is minutes. 1t was the
shortest of four to date.
Undersecretary Of State w,
Averell Hartman and Lord
Hailsham Of Britain were en-
gagged in a serious conversation
as they departed. They drove
off in Mr.. Harriman's car.
The meeting opened 80 min
utes later than usual.
Soviet Foreign Minister An
drei A. Gromyko obtained the
delay to give a luncheon for
East German Foreign Minister
Lothian Bolz. who arrived yes
terday with specialists in trans
portation and finance for con-
situations.
But Mr.. Hartman made 1t
clear the United States delega-
ton would have no contact
with the East Germans.
Sees Summit Possible
Mr.. Hartman said in reply
to q newsman's question that
the Americans had not been
informed Of the East German
visit.
There was no indication by
the official news agency Tass
that the arrival was in any
way associated with the test
ban talks, although in previous
negotiations the Russians often
have sought to bring the East
Germans as near as possible to
any negotiations with the West
where Germans are affected.
Western diplomatic experts
expressed the view that success
in the nuclear test ban talks
could lead to broader East
West negotiations and perhaps
a summit conference this year.
Talk Of a summit conference
arose last spring. United States
officials discounted it because
no special agreement seemed
possible then.
But If the Moscow conference
is successful, President Ken
nedy, Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev. and British Prime Min
lister Macmillan could well de-
eide either to sign the test ban
treaty personally or to meet
soon after its signing to dis
cuss broader disarmament and
political issues.
Partly Drafted
Mr.. Kennedy told a news
conference in Washington yes
terday the possibility of a sum-
init conference had not come up
in the Moscow talks. If the
subject is raised. he said, it
would be considered.

AS NALC delegates repre-
senting every congressio1N l
district in the country reported
back to Statler Hotel head
quarters regarding their visits
to Capitol Hill, they cited
encouraging reactions among
members of Congress.
"Our delegates report that
many members Of Congress
apparently were not aware of
the pay Compatibility feature
of last years pay reform law
which commits Congress to an
annual review and conSidera-
ton of Federal and postal
salaries" declared James Rade-
macher, vice president Of the

"Once this fact was made
known to members of Congress,
many Of them pledged support
Of pay adjustments this year to
maintain compatibility with
industry pay" Mr.. Rademacher
said. "We're most encouraged"
I =
MORE SUPPORT - AS the
pay rally resumed at the Sta
tier yesterday afternoon, the
NALC hoisted a big banner
with its pay raise slogan. 1t is
"a Debt of Honor" referring to
Congress moral obligation"
to consider Federal and postal
employe pay raise adjustments
each year under terms Of the
Federal pay reform law.
Chairman Johnston Of the
Senate Civil Service Committee
addressed the group, pledging
his support Of pay raise ad-
justments this year for Fed
eral classified and postal en-
ployes as we'll as for the Gov
ment's top political officials.
incidentally, many members
Of Congress who would like to
raise their own pay but are
afraid of public reaction, feel
that by raising Government and
postal salaries cross the board
they would set the wheels ir
motion for a Congressional pay
raise that would not backfire
on them.
In his speech, Senator John
ston predicted that Congress
would approve the compare
bility pay raise provisions Of the
pay law this year.
He also promised Senate
committee approval Of the bill
TO permit optional retirement
of Government employees al

Uprising in Damascus
Crushed by b. othists

BEIRUT, Lebanon, July Is
(AP) .-Syria's Ba'athist gov
eminent announced today 1t
had crushed an uprising led
by civilians and discharged Of
ficers.
A spokesman for Mai. Gen.
Amin Hafez, strongman of the
Syrian army, went on Damas-
Gus radio and declared that
the revolt was finished and the
situation was under control.
There was no immediate in
dication of the political lean
ings of the rebels. However,
a successful coup against
Syria's Ba'athist Socialist gov
eminent would have pleased
the Arab nationalist followers
of President NaSser Of the
United Arab Republic.
While the revolt could in
volve military foes of Gen.
Hafez, the strongman also i'm
plicated four men known in
Beirut to be followers of Mr..
NaSser.
Gen. Hafez offered a reward
for their capture. They in
cluded Mohammed ell Jarrah,
police chief of Damascus who
was part of the feared security
apparatus during Syria's union
with Egypt.
"A band Of plotters consist
ing of a number of civilians
supported by a small number
of discharged military men
made an abortive attempt to
disturb peace in the Damascus
district" Gen. Hafez said.
This band was beaten and
crushed and the rest of the ele-
ments gave up. Nothing has
happened to disturb order in
the other districts Of Syria.
1.-THE plotters will be turned
over to the national security
courts"
Tanks Used
The dramatic announcement
was broadcast after Damascus
radio was strangely silent for
two hours.
Diplomatic reports reaching
Beirut said that tanks, auto
matte weapons and small arms
had been in action In the cap
ital earlier while the plotters
tried to seize the army head
quarters and radio station.
The restored radio rolled out
messages of support from the
army. as well as a pledge of
