End Wasteful Federal Pay Holiday Gifts
An editorial blasts the federal payroll for giving 10 weeks of paid leave to 2,443,076 civilians, costing nearly 1 billion annually. It cites a Georgia ex-governor who quit his Washington desk job, saying workers do little while drawing pay. It urges Congress to end what it calls wholesale governmental waste as a threat to American prosperity. Mr. and Mrs. Elby Springs of Seguin and Mr. and Mrs. Albert Klobe-dans of New Braunfels were guests in nearby towns last week.
