Postal Rates Increase Tied to Pay Hike
President Eisenhower urged Congress to raise government Civil Service and postal worker pay by about 4 percent while increasing postal rates. He proposed a health insurance program for government workers and a permanent independent commission to adjust future rates. The plan aims to fund a $339.5 million annual pay rise and $335 million annual health costs, tying postal rate hikes to pay increases and seeking higher first class, air mail, and third class revenues.
