Senate Pay Hike Vote Looms After House Block
WASHINGTON AP Veto action against Nixon’s pay raise for Congress and top officials stalled in the House as 14 members abstained. Senate leaders say a vote likely next Thursday or Friday after the Senate Post Office Committee considers recommending veto or modification. Raises would lift salaries from 42,500 to 45,700 next year and rise to 49,100 in 1975 and 52,800 in 1976 for Congress, judges, and top officials.
