Payless Paydays Ahead For Many U. S. Workers
Washington July 5. Payless paydays loom for tens of thousands of Federal workers as a congressional fight over the Fair Employment Practice Committee ties up a 752 million dollar appropriation for 1946. The House will act this afternoon and the Senate may follow with funds blocked for 11 major agencies. Payrolls due tomorrow include the Office of Defense Transportation Economic Stabilization and Scientific Research and Development. The House backers seek to force a compromise by withholding funds through procedural points of order targeting the 11 vulnerable agencies.
