The Civil Service Commits
sion has approved continuation
Of super-rate pay scales for the
thousands Of Government engi-
neers and scientists in grades 5
through II when the second
phase raise of last years Fed
eral pay reform law becomes
effective in January.
Last years law gave the CSC
authority to pay special rates
for shortage category jobs in
which it is difficult to retain
and recruit personnel.
The csc approved such
premium pay for the engineer
ing and scientific jobs for the
first phase Of the raise and
now has approved extending
the super rate provisions in the
second phase of the increase.
It also has extended this Sec
ton 504 authority to various
jobs In the fields Of geology,
pharmacology and several 9TH
er Job classificstionS that al
ready have been receiving su-
per-rate pay. Mainly affected
are the engineers and scientists
in grades II.
Most Of these employees will
receive the same amount of
pay raise given other Federal
workers who are in the regular
steps Of their pay grades. The
only exception-and this would
not apply to many-would be
those engineers and scientists
who are near or at the top su-
per-rate of their special pay
schedule. In such cases, these
employees would get an increase
but not as large as other Fed
eral workers In the regular
grade.
Here are several examples OF
how engineers and scientists in
grades S through II will fare in
the conversion to super-rates
under the second phase of the
Government pay raise.
l. An engineer. grade 5, is
now receiving $685.. This is
the second rate of the special
rate range, equivalent to the
9th rate of the regular grade
range.

"a Gains Seen
In Wet Nam
By Mcnamara

President johnson and his
top military and foreign advis-
ers yesterday reviewed the cri-
teal situation in South Wet
Nam on the basis Of a first
hand report from Defense Sec
rotary Mcnamara.
While the White House itself
had no comment on the discus
sions, Mr.. Mcnamara held out
the hope Of improved condi-
tons in 1864 against the Com
munist Wet Cong.
Mr.. Mcnamara returned ear
ly yesterday from an inspection
trip to Wet Nam and consulta-
tons there with Wet Namese
officials and American military
advisers.
Reviews Plans
I'VE reviewed in great detail
the plans Of the South Wet
NameSe and the plans of our
own military advisers for oper-
atoms during 1854" the Secre-
tary said. I'VE have every rea-
son to believe they will be sue
ceSSful. We are determined
that they shall be-"
Mr.. Mcnamara declined to
answer questions regarding the
withdrawal Of American forces
in the Communist-be South
Asian country. After an earlier
visit, he had said it was be-
lieved most Of the American
troops assigned to Wet Nam
could be withdrawn by 1865.
Secretary Of State Rusk and
John McCone. director Of the
Central Intelligence Agency,
we're among those participating
in the White House discussion
with defense and other Off
Gals. The Getting lasted
than an hour.
Mr.. McCone flew to Wet
Nam and joined Secretary Nc
Namara for an battle-ground
check Of the campaign against
the Communists.
Declines Comment
Mr.. Mcnamara met with re-
porters at the White House
and read a statement. But he
refused to answer any ques-
tons.
I'VE have Just completed our
report to the President about
observations" he said. I'VE OBJ
served the results Of the very
substantial increase In the Wet
Cong activity, an increase that
began shortly after the new
government was formed and
has extended over a period of
several weeks.
During this time, the Wet
Cong have attacked, and at
tackled successfully, a substan-
tial number Of strategic ham
lets. They have burned the
houses, the Notifications and.
in many cases, have forced the
inhabitants to leave. The rate
of that Wet Cong activity,
however. has substantia ly
dropped within the past week
to 10 days"
