Hearings Open Today on Pay Raises for Federal Workers
UPI reports House hearings begin on Johnsons request for authority to order federal pay raises. The package would raise civilian and postal wages by 3 percent averaging 406 million, with a 1967 start on new pay scales for military and civilian staff subject to Senate veto within six days. The move eases lawmakers from quarterly votes on raises, though top posts are excluded. Last year Congress boosted salaries to 30,000 for members and increased pay for judges and executives. Military pay would rise about 4.8 percent overall, with service personnel under two years receiving 2.7 percent. The military bill totaling 47 million is set for Wednesday introduction.
