Salary Boosts For Dominion Civil Servants

OIMWWA. May 'l—(Speciai)— Since December i0 a grend total of 104,000 Rdcral civil servants have been granted wags and sal- ary increases which will cost the Canadian taxpayer e round e90,- 000,000 a year, it was announced today by Finance Minister Abbott.

The announcement was nude by the Minister when he authorised the last of nine lists of different classifications of Government em- ployee Whose salaries are being re- vised upward. ,In every case, the salary boost is made retro-active to October l. i947, making tile salary increase for the first year 330.000.0005 '_

Few In P. E. I.

While Mr. Abbott's deputies had no breakdown by provinces of the salary increases in the publifi ser- vice, they said the number who, will. benefit in Prince Edward Is- land and in the other Maritime" Provinces wlll be relatively small. Great bulk of the wage boosts will go to officials inflcttawa and in the large cities across the country which are also large civil service centres. __

About 20 per cent of the salary increases will be paid to civil eer- vents living in Ottawa, thus add- lng 05,000,000 per year to the spending power cf the population of this city. Next largest amounts go to Montreal and Toronto. both very large civil servicepopulah ions.

As list after list of civil service salary increases have been placed before the Commons durin the past four mzlths not a few mem- bers of all political parties are be- ginning to have misgivings about Mr. Abbott's generosity to the 150,000 persons in the Demidion holding down Federal Government Jobs. Will not these mass in- creases, they ask, edd to the 1n- flntionary pressure now gripping Cesiedrsle economy? While there is general agreement that the Do- minion should. be a "good" em- ployer and set an example to pri- vate enterprise, members soy that the, Government may now be charged with glng the pre- sent med scramble for higher wages end higher profits.
