He mentioned the paradox of having cost-of-living increases for annuitants but not for active service employees. Several Regents concurred in the opinion that no action separate from the Government's action should be taken. The Secretary asked that his memorandum of May 7 be held confidential. The Regents agreed to support a request for additional supergrades within existing quotas and non-quota qualifications. Mr. Mahon said the specific needs and justifications need to be known and suggested these be made available to the Executive Committee. It was suggested that a group of Regents meet to consider the supergrades to be submitted to the Civil Service Commission within the next thirty days in order to alleviate the immediate problem.
