Rasch, civil service dh “ rector, said that after the meeting he should be able to furnish the Legislature with the exact annual cost of the pay raises. The special commission meeting was called after the legislative appropriating committees pre tested that the regularly sched uled April 8 meeting weuld not come unti] the day befere the Legislature adjourns. This would make it impossible to figure the pay raises into the budget, they said Rasch said that if the commis- sion approves the rate schedule that is being drawn now. the pay boosts should amount to about six million dollars anndal!, About one million of this will come from federal and restricted funds. he said “That will leave about five million dollars to be appropriat- ed by the Legislature,’ Kascir said. The Civil Service Commission has proposed salary increaes for state employes ranging from five to 10 cents an hour In addition, it pro- posed that additional pay boosts be given certain “critical such as attendant nurses at state mental hospitals and prison guards Rasch said the commission working with the Department of Administration to give the Legis lature a breakdown of how the salary increases will affect each state department ‘This should be ready for the Legislature by Tuesday or Wed Rasch said assuming of course. that the fi commis n approves. the salary schedule as we are now’drawing it Deaths Last Night classes is nesday ill Si WASHINGTON (AP lumius Parser Pisboura, 58 for men ears publisher of the Roanoke Va Times @nd the Roanoke World News LOS ANGELES Alberto Carico Columbo 66. morte and telévision musie conductor Bord’ in New York Cry PINEHURST N.
