STRAIGHT FROM THE CAPITAL . ^ by ^^yp w EDWARD LAWSON Washington—It looks as though the lowest-paid employees of the government—the messengers, care takers, cleaners, and elevator op erators—at last are going to get a break. The MeCarran bill, provid- ( ing a $1,500 minimum wage for all government employees, was looked upon as something of a joke a few months ago, but gathering senti ntent in Congress seems augur well for its passage in the not-far-distant future. If it goes through It will be a gcdsend to many thousands of workers—most of them colored— who have found it next to imposs ible to struggle along tu the cur rent basic salary of $1,080 per year (a few cents over $20 per week). While employees unions and in fluential IndivduaJs have placed the weight of their influence behind the bill are working vigorously for Its passage In the near future, some adjustments already have been ef fected. A few weeks ag»f for instance, Dr. Robert C- Weaver, Advisor on Negro Affairs to Secretary of the Interior Iekes, went to bat for the 96 messengers employed in the In terior department Building by the Public Works Administration, and succeeded in having their basic sal ary hiked from $1,080 to $1,200 per year. Not content with that, he saw to it that eleven of them received deserved promotions to clerical status at higher pay, and that one messenger- chauffer was raised to the grade of photographer’s assis tant. Other Negro advisors through out the administration have been Instrumental in effecting raises and reclassifications for the low salapiod help in tjhWr buildings, but none on so large a scale. They are all expected to support the $1,500 wage minimum wage bill, having adopted it as a part of their program in the course of the re cent Conference on the Problems of the Negro.
