Nixon denounces effort to give retroactive pay hikes
■ m
9:20
P.M.
)ER
WASHINGTON ^ — Presi-
t Nixon denounced Thursday
' effort by the House Banking
Lnittee to give a green light
He payment of retroactive pay
jes negotiated for union labor
( f or e the current wage-price
'iTa statement, Nixon said an
uendment adopted earlier in
f day by the committee “would
„ v ide for special treatment to
ne segment of the American
tcnomy” and would “seriously
(opardize the administration’s
itire program for countering in-
Mion through the post-freeze
machinery of a Pay Board and
^ice Commission.
The committee-adopted provi-
jon would require payment of
11 but “grossly disproportionate”
4y raises negotiated before Aug.
Nixon said, “It is not my in
tention to prejudge how these
»rticular issues should be de-
iiled.” However, he argued de-
diions should be made by the
Board and Price Commission
ind that this and other commit-
Keadopted amendments “would
provide for a piece approach” to
itabilizing wages and prices.
Donald Rumsfeld, executive di
rector of the Cost of Living Coun
cil, said the retroactive pay
amendment would “directly un
dermine the concept of a partici
patory” approach in which repre
sentatives of labor, management
and the public would collaborate
in fashioning major decisions.
Rumsfeld was asked about
widespread speculation that all
or some of the five labor mem
bers of the Pay Board would
withdraw from membership—and
scuttle the board’s operations—
unless there was agreement to
provide retroactive payment of
increases granted under union-
management contracts executed
before the freeze began Aug. 15.
“There have been reports about
everything — most of which
haven’t come true,” he said.
At another point he said, “I’m
not a spokesman for the Pay
Board,” then added: “They are
doing their work in an orderly
fashion . . . progress is being
made.”
An AFL-CIO spokesman said
of Rumsfeld’s statement, “It is
obvious that Congress has more
regard for the validity of con
tracts than does the White
House.”
The committee amendment on
contracts executed before Aug.
15, 1971, the beginning date of
the freeze, would require pay
ment of increases, including ret
roactive payments for the freeze
period, unless the President found
that these were grossly dispro
portionate to the general increase
in wage levels.
The committee, apparently re
acting against tough continuing
control provisions reportedly pro
posed by management and public
members of the new Wage Board,
also approved, often by one-vote
margins:
—Authorization for individual
consumers to sue for up to $1,-
000 damages if they are willfully
overcharged.
—Mandatory controls on inter
est rates while wage and price
limits are in effect.
—Exemption from wage con
trols for the working poor, those
employed but earning less than
federally established subsistence
levels.
—Striking from the legislation
a provision giving congressional
ratification to actions already
taken by the control agencies.
—A study of excess profits.
The committee’s votes Thursday
signaled a dramatic turnaround
from the course it steered only a
day earlier, when nearly all
amendments to the Nixon propo
sals were defeated.
Persons who attended the closed
door meeting said members re
peatedly brought into the debate
the newly-disclosed proposals by
public and management members
of the Wage Board.
According to sources close to
the board, these included a ban
on retroactive payments of froz
en wage increases, extension of
the present freeze until Jan. 15,
a formula for renegotiating some
contract pay increases, and a 5
per cent guideline for future pay
increases.
Labor members of the board
and union leaders outside it ob
jected strongly to the proposals,
sources said.
