MEMORANDUM
TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
SUBJECT: Federal Salary Administration
Attached is a copy of the President's letter of January 2, 1963,
to the heads of the four agencies primarily responsible for
administration of the four major statutory salary systems --
the Classification Act, the Postal Field Service Compensation
system, the Foreign Service Act, and the Medical-Dental-Nursing
salary system of the Veterans Administration.
The purpose of this memorandum is to invite the attention of
the head of each agency employing personnel under any of these
four systems to the President's concern that "The payment by
the Federal Government of salary rates comparable to those
paid for the same levels of work in private enterprise imposes
upon the Executive Branch a duty to assure that positions in
the Federal service are properly classified in accordance with
applicable standards and procedures, and that the incumbents
of those positions possess the necessary qualifications...."

I have today signed an .:.xecutive Order providing for administration of the
Federal Salary Reform Act of 1952. As con`en.plated I)y the Act, this
Order pwovides for an annual rc-.view of the ccrnparabih-ty of Federal
salary rates with those maid for the sane level of work in private enter-
prise.
This Ad:ninistration has vigorously espoused the principle of comparability
cf Federal salary rates with those cf private entezprise, :n the Federal
Salary Reierrr Act of 196.'., the Congress has adopted this principle. 3rb-
stantial progress has alreadr been made, bi.t co,,.tinui.n' q efforts will be
necessary to fully achieve and maintain this objective.
The payineit by the Federal Oo'%ernrr.ei; of salary rates to
those paid for the 3ar_ie levels of work in private enterp-ise irnooses upon
the . xecutive Branch a duty to assure that positions in the Federal service
are properly classified in accordaice with applicable standards and pro
cedures, and that the incumbents of those positions possess the necessary
qualifications. I shall expect each of yoei., as the officers prim-aril-,,r
reapcns .ble for the administration of the four major ,tatutorv salary
systems dealt with in tn?: 196? Act, to devoc: ne sonal attention to these
points.

will form the basis for a report which the Director of the Bureau of they
Budget and the Chairman of the Ci-;j1 Sevic:- Zorn-T:ission Will Submit to
