- Description:
- The document from Mr. Carey to Mr. Schwabe discusses the need for legislation to adjust the pay of federal employees in accordance with the cost of living. Mr. Carey, a federal employee himself, expresses concern about the "leveling" principle introduced by Congress, which he believes is causing demoralization among higher technical staff. He urges Mr. Schwabe to consider these points when addressing the issue of federal employee compensation. Mr. Schwabe acknowledges Mr. Carey's letter and expresses his own thoughts on the matter, highlighting the difficulty in determining which federal employees are deserving of their salaries.
