TOUGH TO TAKE
About 1 1-2 million Federal
civilian employees are given 26
working days of vacation leave
each year. They are also entitled
to 15 working days of sick leave.
These add up to 8 1-5 work-weeks
of time off with pay. In addition,
they receive eight regular holi-
days a year.
NON-WAR SPENDING UP
Domestic-civilian expenditures
of the Federal Government a-
mounted to $6.9 billion in 1948.
The President has requested a
total of $12.2 billion for these
items for 1951. This is an increase
in Federal non-war expenditures
of $5.3 billion or 77 per cent in
3 years.
