MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
THROUGH: Executive Director
SUBJECT: H. R. 8716
1. This memorandum is for information only.
2. Attached is a copy of H. R. 8716 which is a comprehensive
pay bill which includes the adjustment of the classified schedule as
called for by the Federal Salary Reform Act and is an Administration
measure. Also, Title R of this bill is the long awaited Executive Pay
bill and while not clearly an Administration measure is, according to
my information, what the Administration will support. There are six
basic Levels established with only the ten Cabinet officers appearing
in Level I at $40, 000.
2. Level II is set at $38, 500 and includes the Deputy Secretary
of Defense, the Under Secretary of State, Director of the Bureau of
the Budget, and the Director of Central Intelligence among others.
3. Level RI is set at $36, 500 and includes generally the other
number two pasts of the Cabinet departments as well as the Secretaries
of the three Armed Services and additionally includes the Deputy
Director of Central Intelligence.
4. An initial review would indicate that section 208 at page 61
may create a serious problem for the Agency. This section provides
that "notwithstanding the provisions of any other law,'" the head of an
agency who is authorized to fix salaries by administrative action "shall
not fix such rate in excess of the highest rate of grade 18" under the
rr-~e r.
