But when stabilization controls
are removed after the war, congressmen should lift their salaries to at least $15,000, he suggested. $20,000 Bill Offered Mr. Truman's letter may clear up a little confusion which resulted from his news conference statement last week that conshould have an outright salary increase. The next day a senale bill was introduced to raise house and senate salaries to $20,000. jections were immediately raised that this would be a violation of the Little Steel formula. The house already has voted
itself an annual = “expense account” of $2500. Mr. Truman said last week that while he
thought congress should take a more direct approach than this to increase its income, he would not disapprove such a measure. “The salaries of the members of congress should be increased to a level ‘more in line withthe job the President's letter said.
Remember Little Steel
““It will not be. possible or. wise to do this all at once. The ad-
| justment of congressional salar- | ies at present should be in the | full amount consistent with the
little steel formula and other stabilization criteria by which the government controls salaries and wages in private industry.” The President said that the pay of house and senate “members should be.commensurate with the importance, responsibility ‘and volume of their work. They are underpaid now, Mr. Truman said. Cites Business Practice

pay and their jobs may never be | achieved, the President expressed |
the belief that something should be done to eliminate this" inequality as far as possible. He listed the diverse duties and responsibilities of members of congress, saying that the house and senate now face important decisions on such problems as the international monetary structure, foreign trade policy, economic stabilization, tax policy, war. ap-
