FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SEPTEMBER 19, 1974
Office of the White House Press Secretary
THE WHITE HOUSE
STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT
While disappointed in today's Senate vote, I am in agreement with the
Congress that Federal employees deserve this pay increase. It was
painful for me to ask the Congress to defer this raise for three months.
I know I had asked the Congress to do a difficut thing. But there was a
compelling reason. I refer to the inflationary mom entum which I regard
as domestic Public Enemy Number One. That is why I had requested
the Congress and the Federal employees to cooperate.
Now that the Congress has acted, I will proceed to reach a decision
as quickly as possible. within the prescribed discretionary limits, on
the precise amount of the raise.
The need to reduce Federal spending continues. I sincerely hope that
the Congress will join with me in this effort.
