Postal Pay Boost Said Hot Issue
Congress faces a major labor dispute over postal pay with Postmaster General Summerfield pushing a targeted reclassification plan to raise 400000 postal workers by about 100 dollars a year while unions demand an $800 annual raise for all 500000 postal workers and up to 350 million dollars in extra annual costs.

Senate to Hear Opposition as Tax Cut Debates Rise
The Senate Finance Committee plans hearings next week on the excise and income tax cuts with Secretary Humphrey opposing the cuts. Committee members privately split, with two likely to vote against removing House excise reductions. Millikin says the Senate will likely pass the excise bill in near form to the House, while noting revenue losses from proposed exemptions and other tax changes. House Democrats aim to lift exemptions to 709, sparking a tight vote. some senators want broader cuts like ending the 3 percent freight levy and abolishing the movie ticket tax for all under 50 cents, to save small theaters.
