Federal workers seek lump sum for unused annual leave
House backed bill H.R. 1204 to allow federal employees retiring this year to receive a lump sum for unused annual leave. The measure, backed by Rep. Charles Wilson, would pay for leave over 30 days plus leave earned this year, with most payments in early 1974 and taxes due then. It also covers leave carried over due to administrative error and for prisoners of war in Vietnam. Senate action expected to mirror House action for quick presidential signing.
