poses of the bill.
There being no objection, the excerpt

as follows:
PURPOSE OF THE SILL
S. 853 would extend the life of the Com-
mission on Political Activity of Government
Personnel from October 3, 1967. to Decem-
ber 31, 1067. The Commission was estab-
lished by Public Law 89-617 (80 Stat. 868).
approved October 3, 1966, for the purpose of
making "a full and complete investigation
and study of the Federal laws which limit or
discourage the participation of Federal and
State officers and employees in political ac-
tivity with a view to determining the effect
of such laws, the need for their revision or
elimination, and an appraisal of the extent
to which undesirable results might accrue
from their repeal."
The basic legislation in the area of the
Commission's inquiry is the Hatch Political
Activities Act, approved August 2, 1989. which
act has existed for more than a. quarter cen-
tury without major amendment. It. Is the
Commission's purpose to determine If, in the
light of changing governmental programs
and relationships, the stringent limitations
Imposed by that act upon partisan political
activity by Government employees continue
to be valid and realistic. The congressional
mandate to the Commission, however, ad-
vocated extreme caution with and careful
consideration of any proposal which might
reactivate the grave abuses-coerced politi-
cal donations, salary kickbacks, forced po-
litical work, etc-which caused Congress to
adopt the act originally.
MRS. MARY T. BROOKS
The bill (8. 371) for the relief of Mrs.
Mary T. Brooks was considered, ordered
to be engrossed for a third reading, read
the third time, and passed, as follows:

Representatives of the United States of
America in Congress assembled, That (a) the
Public Printer is authorized and directed to
pay out of the revolving fund of the Govern-
ment Printing Office the\sum of $742.40,
representing salary due Mrs. Mary T.
Brooks, an employee of the Government
Printing Office, for the period January 13,
1966, through February 28, 1966, when she
was separated from her employment due to
the erroneous notification by the Civil Serv-
ice Commission of approval of her applica-
tion for disability retirement. After tax
withholding, payment of group life and
health insurance premiums, and deductions
of amounts due the Civil Service Retirement
and Disability Fund, the balance of the
amount hereby appropriated shall be paid to
Mrs. Brooks in full settlement of any and all
claims against the United States arising out
of her erroneous separation, and the period
January 13, 1966, through February 28, 1966,
shall be deemed a period of creditable Fed-
eral service by Mrs. Brooks for retirement and
related purposes. The Public Printer is fur-
ther authorized and directed to pay out of
the cited revolving fund the agency contri-
butions for retirement, life insurance, and
health benefits purposes which would have
been required by law had Mrs. Brooks been in
paid employment during the period of her
erroneous separation.
(b) No part of the amount appropriated
in this Act shall be paid or delivered to or
received by any agent or attorney on account
of services rendered In connection with this
claim, and the same shall be unlawful, any
contract to the contrary notwltllstandln~

DACIeGROUND
This proposal was first introduced by Sen-
ator Carl Hayden, chairman of the Joint
Committee on Printing, at the request of
James L. Harrison, Public Printer, as S. 3553
of the 89th Congress. That bill with minor
perfecting amendments, was passed by the
Senate on September 19, 1986, but presum-
ably due to the proximity of adjournment
failed to receive House consideration and
approval. The current proposal, introduced
by Senator Hayden as S. 371 of the 90th
Congress, is identical with S. 3563 as passed
by the Senate in the last Congress.
