Gov’t Blamed For CS Deal

OTTAWA (CP) — Cal Best, president of the Civil Service Association, said Thursday that the government must take "full responsibility" for the large group of government clerks and typists who didn't get pay in- creases tliis week.

e was commenting on a statement by Finance Minister Nowlan Wednesday saying that the 19,000 employees were ex- cluded because thene was no recommendation on their behalf from the pay research bureau.

Wendell Hewitt-White. execu- tve secretary of the Civil Serv- ice Federatim, said his group has hired a firm of manage~ ment consultants to report wages paid in private industry for similar work done by the ex-

oy

ees.

He said he hoped the report would be ready next week‘along with one for hospital nursing orderlies, who were also ex- cluded from the list getting in- creases.

Mr. Hewitt-White said the pay research bureau does not make recommendations but only sup- plies comparable figures to the government.

He said he had come upon nine cases where the Civil Serv- ice Commission had made rec- ommendations “and these wue not acted upon."

OTTAWA (CP) — Transport Minister Balcer says that the views of Canadian trucking com- panies will be taken into consid- eration b the government in framing legislation based on the MacPhersnn royal commission renort on transportation.

The report proposes a swee ing" overhaul of federal govern- ment transportation policies and regulations designed to free the railways to compete against other forms of transportation.

ey process! is a new system of freight-rate regulation that would permit ‘the railways to establish rates subject only to a floor and a co ng.

Mr. Balcer told John Magee, exec tive secretary of the Ca- Trucking Associations, at a meeting of the Commons railways committee Thursday that the organization would be given an opportunity to present its views on the report to the federal cabinet.

The committee is considering a government bill to e d pro- visions of the freight rates re- duction act from April 30 of this year to April 30. 1963.

The set provides a 820.000
