1o the employee and to the taxpayer, and whereas fulfillment of these
functions is essential to the development and maintenance of maxi-
mum proficiency in the civilian services of Government, then, ac-
cordingly, Federal salary fixing shall be based upon the principles
that
(a) There shall be equal pay for substantially equal work,
and pay distinctions shall be maintained in keeping with work
and performance distinctions; and
(b) Federal salary rates shall. be comparable with private
enterprise salary rates for the same levels of work.

interrelated, and salary levels shall be set and henceforth adjusted in
accordance with the above principles.
