DUAL EMPLOYMENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION
MARCH 4 (legislative day, FEBRUARY 26), 1964.-Ordered to be printed
Mr. YARBOROUGH, from the Committee on Post Office and Civil
Service, submitted the following
REP T
accompany H.R. 7381]
To
The Committee on Post Office and Civil Service, to whom was
referred the bill (H.R. 7381) to simplify, modernize, and consolidate
the laws relating to the employment of civilians in more than, one:
position and the laws concerning the civilian employment of retired
members of the uniformed services, and for other purposes, having
considered the. same, report favorably thereon with amendments
and recommend .that the bill as amended do pass.
AMENDMENTS
Title II is amended by eliminating section 205. This provision
would require public notice, a waiting period, and open, competitive
examinations in order to fill any vacancy in the competitive civil
service if a retired member of the Armed Forces is a candidate for
the position. Since agencies could never, positively determine
whether a retired member would be interested in applying for such a
position, the entire examining and appointing procedures of the Civil
Service Commission would have to be revised in order to comply
with the requirements of this section. The committee believes that
because section 204 of the bill lends adequate protection to civilian
employees and eliminates certain inequities in the . hiring of retired
military personnel, section 205 is unnecessarily restrictive.
Title III is amended in regard to the employment of one person
in more than one civilian office. The new provisions in sections
301 and 402(c) will maintain the status quo for employment in
certain positions in the legislative branch of the Government.

2 DUAL EMPLOYMENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION
K
Four basic goals can be attained by enactment of this legislation.
(1) At the present time, legislation and administrative decisions
in regard to dual compensation and dual employment are varied and
complex. There are approximately 50 separate statutes and 200
Comptroller General decisions relating to the employment of retired
military personnel and the dual employ=ment of civilian officers.
Few administrators or personnel officers in Federal agencies fully
understand the present law, and cannot be present in every case
when an important decision or interpretation applicable to a particular
situation is merle. Thus by merely simplifying and consolidating
all these laws and regulations into one manageable statute, a major
accomplishment will- be achieved. Many unfortunate errors which
have been made in the past will be avoided in the future. A key
example of such all incident is illustrated by recent Comptroller
General decisions involving certain warrant officers and retired Re-
serve officers now employed by the Government. The decisions
brought these groups within the prohibitions of the 1894 and 1932 dual
compensation statutes, thus requiring reduction in retirement pay
for some and substantial demands for overpayment of salary for others.
In some cases these overpayments amounted to many thousands of
dollars. Relief for these two groups is included in the present bill.
(2) Under present law, a Regular officer of the L.S. Armed Forces,
including a warrant officer, retired for length of service, is prohibited
from accepting Federal employment because of the maximum salary
limitation established under the Dual Office Act of 1894. Testimony
before the Subconunittee on Civil Service in its public hearings on
December 12, 1963, revealed that in many cases the Government
may be the loser because of these restrictions. Many skilled tech-
nicians, retired at reintively young ages from the :Armed Forces, can
be effectively utilized in civilian agencies. But because of the restric-
tions of present law, the Government cannot even offer these people
eniployament even though many of them would prefer to remain in
public service and are particularly suited to Federal employment. A
major source of well-trained prospective employees is completely
unavailable.
(3) Under present law, no ~rerson may hold two civilian positions
in the Government if the combined compensation exceeds $2,000 per
annum. At the present time, the lowest salary on the general sched-
ule is $3,303 per annum. II.R. 7381 would modernize dual compen-
sation provisions to allow a person to hold several part-time jobs so
long as the aggregate number of hours worked does not exceed the
equivalent of one full-time position. Emphasis will be placed upon
the number of hours worked, not the compensation earned.
(4) By allowing Regular officers retired for length of service to be
employed by the ovcrnment in it civilian office and at the same time
retain some of their military retirement pay, a more equitable em-
ployment system will be established. Retired Reserve officers,
enlisted men, and Regular officers retired for combat disability are
not now restricted by dual employment laws. H.R. 7381 does not
affect these retired military- persons insofar as their retirement ray
or civilian pay is concerned. It does, however, give their fellow
service member, the Reguhir officer retired upon the completion of
his career, it more equitable employment opportunity.

DUAL EMPLOYMENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION 3
JUSTIFICATION
In addition to numerous special statutes and some 200 Comptroller
General decisions, there are 3 basic statutes regarding dual employ=
ment and dual compensation. The Dual Office 'Act of 1894 was
designed to prohibit the employment of any person in any Federal
office if such person was already an office holder if either of the posi-
tions involved paid $2,500 per annum.' A retired member of the
Armed Forces is considered to be an office holder for the purposes of
this act. At the time, very few retired military personnel received
$2,500 retirement pay, and few positions paid as much as $2,500 per
annum. It worked no substantial hardship on either the Govern-
ment or the retired military man. Over the years, the situation has
changed. The 1894 act has been amended or interpreted to exclude
from its prohibition everyone except Regular officers retired for length
of service. All others, enlisted, Reserve, or disabled, are not subject
to the act.
The Dual Compensation Act of 1916 prohibits the employment of
one person in two civilian positions if the total compensation exceeds
$2,000 per annum. Many exceptions have been made to this act for
particular Government needs.
The Economy Act of 1932 stipulates that retired commissioned
officers employed by the Government shall have their retirement pay
reduced to the extent necessary to maintain a maximum compensation
of $10,000 per annum. Reserve officers were excepted from the pro-
visions of this act. If both retirement pay and civilian compensation
are in excess of $10,000, the employee may choose which salary he
wishes to receive, but he may not receive both. Since the 1894 act
applies to many of the same officers, the only group affected by the
1932 act are Regular and temporary commissioned officers retired for
noncombat physical disability.
No doubt congressional policy established at the time these laws
were passed was reasonable. However, changing economic and em-
ployment conditions necessitate substantial revision in the basic policy
which the Government should enforce in regard to the employment
of retired military personnel as well as dual compensation. Twenty-
five hundred dollars is no longer a realistic figure when no office under
the general schedule, postal field service schedule, or most other-Fed-
eral salary schedules is compensated at such a low sum. Two thousand
dollars as the maximum salary for persons holding more than one
office (particularly when many of these people hold part-time jobs)
is not in line with current wage scales or costs of living. Of most
importance, however, is the fact that a highly trained group of career
military officers, many of whom are interested in joining the Federal
civilian work force and remaining in public service, are presently
prohibited, absolutely, from continuing to serve their country. Such
a waste of skilled manpower in the atomic and space age does more
harm to the prospective employer-the Government-than the pros-
pective employee, who can in many instances find more financially
rewarding employment in private industry. Many of the skills pos=
sessed by these people are not readily available to the Government or
private enterprise from other sources. Several examples of retired
military officers who sought Federal employment and were barred by
the dual compensation statutes should adequately illustrate the
problem.

4 DUAL EMPLOYMSENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION
(1) A medical officer who had specialized in research in pathology
retired from the Army as a colonel. The Public Health Service is
doing research in the same area and could have used his background
and skills to great advantage.
(2) An aeronautical engineer, retired as a lieutenant colonel at
age 42, with a background in research and development, had to seek
employment outside the Government. Ac had received his master's
degree from the Air Institute of Technology an Air Force school.
(3) In testimony before the comniitt,ee, Dr. Linus Zink, Assistant
Chief Medical Director of the Veterans' Administration, pointed out
several examples where eminently qualified specialists in the fields
of pathology, radiology, and the new and rare specialty of hyperbarics
were prevented from working for the Department of Medicine and
Surgery because of dual compensation restrictions.
(4) Although special legislation relieves the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration from the absolute bar against hiring retired
Regular officers, the employee must surrender and of his retirement
pay. NASA Administrator James E. Webb has pointed out numer-
ous examples of skilled persons badl needed in the space program
who entered private industry in order to retain retirement pay of
several thousand dollars a year.
The situation is approaching a critical stage. Government em-
ployment needs grow in the specialized fields more with each passing
year. To prohibit a large number of retired Regular officers from
serving their country in a civilian capacity as they have served it in a
military career seems not only unjustified, and a singular discrimina-
tion, but a waste of manpower and skill that can no longer be afforded.
SECTIONAL ANALYSIS OF TIIE BILL AS REPORTED
TITLE I-DEFINITIONS
Section 101 defines (lie special terms used, most of which are based
on the definitions used for the same words by section 101 of title 37,
United States Code. The definition of "civilian office" is intended to
cover employment. in any civilian office or position in the Government
of the United States or in the municipal government of the District of
Columbia whether appointive, elective, under a personal service
contract, or otherwise. Such term also covers employment in non-
appropriated fund instrumentalities under the jurisdiction of the
Armed Forces.
TITLE 1I-EMPLOYMEN`T OF RnTIRso XIE-EMRS OF UNIFORMED
SsRYICES
Reduction in retired or retirement pay
Section 201(a) provides that a retired officer of any Regular com-
ponent of the uniformed services who holds a civilian office shall
receive the full compensation of the civilian office plus the first $2,000
of his retired or retirement pay, plus one-half of the remainder, if any.
Section 201(a) also provides that the $2,000 shall be increased by
appropriate percentages in direct proportion to each increase in such
retired. or retirement pay under section 1401a(b) of title 10, United
States Code, to reflect changes in the consumer price index. Thus,
if the first increase under such section 1401a(b) amounts to 3 percent,

DUAL EMPLOYMENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION 5
such a retired officer thereafter will have his retirement or retired pay
reduced to an annual rate equal to the first $2,000 increased by 3
percent plus one-half the remainder and the next increase under such
section 1401a(b) would be applied to the new base and any later
increases applied accordingly.
Section 201(b) excepts from reduction in retired pay required by
subsection (a) a retired officer of any Regular component of the
uniformed services whose retirement was based on disability resulting
from an injury or disease received in line of duty as a direct result of
armed conflict or based on disability caused by an instrumentality of
war and incurred in the line of duty during a period of war.
Section 201(c) excepts from the reduction in retired or retirement.
pay required by subsection (a) the first 30 days of a temporary,
part-time, or intermittent appointment if serving under one appoint-
ment, or not to exceed a total of 30 days during any fiscal year in
case the employee is serving under more than one appointment.
Section 201(d) provides a definition of "period for which he re-
ceives salary" for purposes of subsections (a) and (c) of section 201.
Section 201(e) authorizes the U.S. Civil Service. Commission,
subject to the supervision and control of the President, to prescribe
regulations under which exceptions to subsection (a) may be made.
whenever it is determined by appropriate authority that exceptions
are warranted on the basis of special or emergency employment
needs which otherwise cannot readily be met. Authority to provide
a means for exceptions from subsection (a) also is vested in the
President of the Senate with respect to the U.S. Senate, the Speaker
of the House with respect to the U.S. House of Representatives;
and the Architect of the Capitol with respect to the Office of the
Architect of the Capitol. Special authority is granted the Adminis-
trator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to
exempt from such subsection (a) any individual in a scientific, engi
neering, or administrative position appointed pursuant to section
203(b)(2) (A) of the National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958, as
amended (42 U.S.C. 2473 (b) (2) (A)), but not more than 30 such
exemptions may exist at any one time.
Section 201(f) provides that a retired officer of any Regular com-
ponent of the uniformed services who was employed in a civilian office
on the day immediately preceding the effective date of the subsection
may elect to remain subject to and continue under any applicable
limitations on or exceptions to the amount of compensation to be
received which were in effect prior to such effective date, or to be
subject to the applicable limitations and exceptions contained in
subsections (a), (b), (c), and (e) of section 201.
It is expected that very few Regular officers will be in a position to
exercise this option because the only Regular officers serving in civilian
positions at the present time are those serving in positions for which
specific statutory exemptions have been granted from the dual office
holding prohibitions of section 2 of the act of July 31, 1894, as amended
(5 U.S.C. 62).
Reserve ofbcers
Section 201(g) authorizes the retroactive exemption from the $10,000
compensation restriction of section 212 of the act of June 30, 1932,
as amended (5 U.S.C. 59a), for certain retired members who were

serving in the Army or Air Force of the United States without com-
ponent in a temporary grade higher than, or the same as, the Reserve
commission then held who were retired in such grade for physical
.disability. The exemption will be retroactive and apply to each such
person for any period following his retirement. The effect of the
provision will be to require retroactive adjustment in retirement or
retired pay and Will overcome the recent decision of the Comptroller
General involving these officers (B-136459, May 18, 1961).
Warrant officers
Section 201(la) will exempt it non-Regular member of any of the
Armed Forces who served on active duty in a temporary Warrant
officer grade and who was retired in that status prior to the effective
(late prescribed by section 403(a) of the bill from the restriction in
section 2 of the act of July 31, 1894; as amended (5 U.S.C. 62), for
any period following his retirement. This provision is designed to
protect the civilian appointments of such retired w rrant. officers
retroactively to the date of their appointment to civilian positions.
This provision will overcome the holding of the Comptroller General's
decision of April 2, 1963 (B-141989) that a retired temporary warrant
officer is subject to the dual-office restriction contained in the act of
July 31, 1894, and therefore could not legally be appointed to it
civilian office.
T `eterans' preference
Section 202 amends section 12 of the Veterans' Preference Act in
regard to retention preference for purposes of reductions in force.
This committee has devoted its most careful attention to this aspect
of the bill. The original proposal of the Civil Service Commission
recommended elimination of all veterans' preference for any retired
member of the Armed Forces having more than 6 years' continuous
active duty. As reported. II.R. 7381 will remove career military re-
tirees employed in the future in the civilian service from the preferred
category for purposes of reductions in force and will count only their
wartime service in computing seniority. This will eliminate the very
substantial advantage which career military personnel now enjoy
over career civilian personnel who may or may not be entitled to pref-
erence. For instance, a retired military man who enters the Federal
service after 30 years in the Army immediately attains 30 years'
seniority phis retention preference. Thus, in his competitive group
in a reduction in force, the retired military roan will be removed from
his position only after all nonvcterans have been removed and only
after all preference veterans having less seniority have been removed.
The amendment will give greater protection to the career civilian em-
ployee who is a veteran of Wartime service as Well its the career em-
ployee who is not a veteran entitled to preference. All retired mili-
tary= persons having less than 20 years' service, those retired on com-
bat disability, and those presently employed by the Government Will
retain all lirefei?ence.
Crediting -military service.for annual leave purposes
Section 203 of the bill amends section 203(a) of the Annual and
Sick Leave Act of 1951 to provide a more restrictive method of
crediting active military service of a retired member of any of the
uniformed services for annual leave accrual purposes. Under existing
law, all service creditable under section 3 of the Civil Service Retire-

ment Act for purposes of annuity may be counted in determining
annual leave accruals (which are based on 13 days per year up to 3
years of service, 20 days after 3 years of service up to 15 years, and 26
days per year after 15 years of service). It is the current practice to
count all military service for annual leave accrual purposes since all
military service is creditable under the Civil Service Retirement Act
if the retiree waives his military retired pay.
The amendment to the Annual and Sick Leave Act of 1951 made
by section 203 of the bill will permit a retired member of the uniformed
services to count, for annual leave accrual purposes, only military
service performed in the Armed Forces during any war or in any
campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been author-
ized or all of his military service if his retirement is based on disability
resulting from injury or disease received in line of duty as a direct
result of armed conflict or based on disability caused by an instru-
mentality of war and incurred in line of duty during a period of war.
The section also contains a savings clause to permit those now em-
ployed to continue counting all their military service.
Employment of retired military personnel in the Department of Defense
Section 204 establishes certain safeguards regarding the employ-
ment of retired military personnel in the Defense Department for a
certain period of time after their retirement. Under the provisions of
the Gilpatric Memorandum, issued by the Deputy Secretary of De-
fense in 1961, no retired military person can be employed on the same
base where he was stationed 6 months prior to his retirement unless
the Secretary of the appropriate Department approves the employ-
ment.. Section 204 incorporates the priciple of the Gilpatric Memo-
randum into the law, and expands it to prohibit the employment of
such a person any where in the Department of Defense for a period of
6 months unless the criteria in section 204(b) are satisfied and the
permission of the appropriate Secretary and, if the office is in the
competitive service, after the approval of the Civil Service Commission
is secured. Positions included under section 504 of the Salary
Reform Act of 1962 are excluded from these restrictions, and the
restrictions shall be suspended in case of national emergency.
Report
Section 206 requires the President to transmit to the Congress on or
before January 1, 1966, a comprehensive report of the operations of the
departments and agencies in the executive branch under title II of
the bill.
It is expected that the report will contain sufficient information to
permit the appropriate committees of the Congress to review the
utilization of the new dual-employment and dual-compensation system
established by the bill and to review particularly any adverse effects
resulting from the repeal of the dual-office-holding restrictions of
section 2 of the act of July 31, 1894, as amended (5 U.S.C. 62).
Ere -loyment it more than one civilian office
The provisions of section 301 of the bill deal solely with the employ-
ment of civilian personnel in more than one civilian office.
Subsection (a) of section 301 will prohibit Government civilian
personnel generally from receiving basic compensation from more than
one civilian office (as defined in sec. 101(3) of the bill) for more than an

aggregate of 40 hours of work in any calendar week (Sunday through
Saturday). The provisions do not prohibit an employee from having a
combination of part-time positions collectively equal to an aggregate
of 40 hours of work in any calendar week.
The prohibition is on the receipt. of basic compensation and will
not affect the receipt of otherwise properly earned overtime com-
pensation for work in one position in excess of the hours required for
overtime compensation.
Subsection (b) of section 301 authorizes the U.S, Civil Service
Commission, subject to the supervision and control of the President,
to prescribe regulations under which exceptions to subsection (a) of
such section may be made whenever it is determined by appropriate
autliority that exceptions are warranted on the ground that personal
services otherwise cannot be readily obtained.
Subsection (c) relates to the employment of personnel in the
lei islative branch of the Government. This provision, in conjunction
with paragraph (5) of section 301 (d) and (f) and section 402(c) will
maintain the present method of employment in the legislative branch.
Present law prohibits dual compensation if both positrons are within
the U.S. Senate, or if either position is in the executive branch.
However, one person may be employed in more than one part-time
position in the House of Representatives if the basic compensation
does not exceed $2,000 per annum. By repealing the $2,000 basic
compensation limitation which has articular meaning for congres-
sional employment, new problems could arise in regard to employment
in the legislative branch. The amendments contained in the present
bill would resolve the difficulties by retaining the present employment
rules applicable to the Congress.
Subsection (d) of section 301 provides that subsection (a) of such
section does not apply to tlie receipt of compensation in unusual
situations which Congress previously has found deserve special
treatment, or which were the subject of decisions by the Comptroller
General.
Paragraph (1) excepts compensation on a. when-actually-employed
basis received from more than one consultant. or expert position if such
compensation is not received for the same hours of the same day.
Paragraph (2) excepts compensation consisting of fees paid on other
than a. time basis.
Paragraph (3) excepts compensation received by teachers of the
public schools of the District of Columbia for employment in a civilian
office durin_r the surnaier vacation period.
Paragraph (4) excepts compensation paid by the Tennessee Valley
Authority to employees performing certain part-time or intermittent.
work in addition to their normal duties when the Authority deems
it to be in the interest of efficiency and economy.
Paragraph (5) relates to employment in the legislative branch.
Paragraph (6) excepts compensation Paid by the U.S. Coast Guard
to employees occupying part-time positions of lamplighters.
Paragraph (7) excepts compensation within the purview of pro-
visions of nine laws, each of which are amended by section 401 (i)-(q)
of the bill to provide exceptions from section 301.
Subsection (e) is a savings provision permitting civilian personnel
serving on the effective date of section 301 in more than one position
under properly authorized appointments to continue to serve under

without regard to subsection (a) for the duration of the appointment
or appointments.
Miscellaneous provisions

section 402(a) (20) of the bill and to insert in lieu thereof reference to
section 201 of the bill; that is, section 201 of the new Dual Compensa-

REPEALS
Section 402 (a) repeals 38 provisions of law relating to dual employ-
ment or dual compensation or which are now obsolete, including the
three major laws on these subjects, namely: (1) Section 2 of the act
of July 31, 1894, as amended (5 U.S.C. 62), relating to the holding of
two offices; (2) section 6 of the act of May 10, 19IG (5 U.S.C. 58),
relating to double salaries; and (3) section 212 of the act of June 30,
1932, as amended (5 U.S.C. 59a), relating to the limitation of $10,000
on the amount of retired pay received for commissioned officer service
when combined with Government civilian salary.
Subsection (b) of section 402 contains provisions repealing all other
law, general or specific, not repealed by subsection (a) and inconsistent
with the provisions of this Iegishation.
Subsection (c) retains certain provisions of law regarding Senate
employment.
EFFECTIVE DATE S
Section 403 established an effective date as the first day of the first
first month which begins later than the 90th day following the date of
enactment of the bill, except for sections 201(g) and 201(h), which
shall become effective upon cnactnaent.
The latter two sections relate to Reserve officers and warrant
officers.
Section 404 provides that if any provision of this legislation shall be
held invalid, the remaining provisions shall not be affected.
COST
The committee was unable to obtain any specific cost information
on the amount of overpayments proposed to be waived by subsec-
tions (g) and (h) of section 201 of the bill in the cases of certain Re-
serve officers and warrant officers. Nur is it possible to estimate any
additional cost that iaaight, be incurred by removal of the $10,000
dual-compensation limitation of the act of June 30, 1932, in the case of
those few remaining officers who have been exempted specifically
from tho dual-office restriction of the act of July 31, 1894, but not
from such $10,000 limitation.
The committee believes that the payment of the full amount of
compensation for a civilian position does not result in additional cost
to the Government by reason of the fact that the occupant happens to
be a military retiree, whether Reserve or Regular, or officer or enlisted
man.

VIEWS OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH AND AGENCY
REPORTS
Letter and statement of purpose and justification from the U.S.
Civil Service Commission, dated June 15, 1963, and a letter from
James E. Webb, Administrator, National Aeronautics and Space
Administration, dated January 31, 1964.
U.S. CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION,
Hon. LYNDON B. JOHNSON,
President of the Senate.
Washington, D. C., June 25, 1963.
DEAR MR. PRESIDENT: The Civil Service Commission is submitting
for the consideration of the Congress it draft of a proposed bill to
simplify, modernize, and consolidate the laws relating to the employ-
ment of civilians in more than one position and the laws concerning the
civilian employment of retired members of the uniformed services,
and for other purposes. Also enclosed are a section analysis of the
draft proposed bill and a statement of purpose and justification.
Existing statutes on the civilian employment of retired military
personnel and the dual employment of civilians are generally agreed to
be harmful, obsolete, unfair, confusing, and difficult to administer.
They are harmful, because, for example, they deprive the Government
of the services of certain highly trained retired military personnel
whose technical skills, frequently acquired at Government expense,
are in short supply and are needed in Federal agencies. Their
obsolete nature is indicated by the fact that one law, enacted in 1.894,
was intended originally as a limitation on combined pension and
salary but now serves to bar absolutely certain retired military
personnel from almost all Government employment. The statutes
are unfair, confusing, and difficult to administer in that some cate-
gories of retired military personnel may not be employed at all; some
may be employed subject to a $10,000 limitation on receipt of com-
bined civilian salary and retired pay; and some may be employed in
any agency without any limitation on combined compensation.
Further complicating the picture is the fact that it is often difficult
to determine into which category an individual falls, leading to, many
Comptroller General decisions. Another factor is that a few agencies
have been granted exceptions to parts of the law and may employ
any person retired from the military service.
The Commission also receives many complaints from employee
organizations and civil service employees concerning the advantages
possessed by retired military personnel in reductions in force. Some
of these complaints are received directly; many are received through
Congressmen on behalf of the people they represent.
The problems in administering the laws on civilian employment of
retired personnel are further reflected in the introduction in the Con-
gress each year of private bills to relieve employees of debts owed to
the United States and incurred by overpayment of military retired
pay or civilian salary. The overpayments result from understandable
errors in the interpretation of the more than 40 separate provisions of
law and the 200-plus Comptroller General decisions. which seek to
interpret this tangle of statutes.
The proposed legislation would accomplish these things: First, it
would help the Government to obtain the best qualified people avail-

able to fill certain of its hard-to-fill civilian positions. We can no
longer afford to exclude from consideration for employment retired
military personnel who have the highly technical knowledges and
skills which are in demand. Second, the draft bill would provide
fairer treatment of all categories of retired military personnel. Third,
the proposed legislation would provide reasonable safeguards so that
the employment of retired military personnel would not unfairly
hamper career opportunities for present civilian personnel. Fourth,
the bill would consolidate and simplify the present numerous and
confusing statutes on dual compensation and present
employment.
The problems involved in the employment of retired military per-
sonnel and the dual employment of civilians in the Federal service
have been frequently studied over the past several years by Congres-
sional committees and individual Members of Congress, the Civil
Service Commission, and other interested Federal agencies. These
studies have been extremely helpful in clarifying the issues involved.
We believe the enclosed proposed draft bill treats these issues in a
manner which is fair to all individuals concerned and best serves the
public interest.
An almost identical proposal was introduced in the 87th Congress
as S. 3780 at the Commission's request but no action was taken
thereon. The current proposal differs substantively from S. 3780 in
the following respects:
(1) S. 3780 contained an exemption from the bill's provisions
for retired military members whose retirement was based on dis-
ability "incurred in combat with an enemy of the United States."
This exemption has been changed in the current proposal to in-
clude those retired members whose disability results "from an
injury or disease received in line of duty as a direct result of
armed conflict." This change would extend the exemption to
those disabled in the kind of cold war conflicts in which American
military personnel are now engaged.
(2) Section 103 of S. 3780 contained amendments to the Vet-
erans' ]'reference Act which would restrict the veterans' prefer-
ence benefits to which retired military personnel would be
entitled. in tha current proposal, a provision has been added
to these. amendments which would preserve veterans' preference
for reservists who become eligible for military retirement, at age
60 subsequent to their employment in the Federal service.
(3) The provisions of section 303(c) of S. 3780, which related
to deductions under the retired serviceman's family protection
plan, have not been included in the current proposal. It has
been determined that deletion of these provisions will result in
more consistent treatment of persons covered by the bill.
(4) A provision (see. 102(g)) has been included in the current
proposal to grant retroactive legislative relief to a number of
retired temporary warrant officers who, under a recent decision
of the Comptroller General, have been found to be employed in
the Federal service in violation of the restrictions of the Dual
Office Holding Act of 1894.
The Bureau of the Budget advises that from the standpoint of the
administration's program there is no objection to the submission of
this proposed legislation for the consideration of the Congress.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE AND JUSTIFICATION FOR LEGISLATIVE
PROPOSAL To SIMPLIFY, MODERNIZE, AND CONSOLIDATE THE LAWS
RELATING TO THE EMPLOYMENT OF CIVILIANS IN MORE THAN ONE
POSITION AND THE LAWS CONCERNING THE CIVILIAN EMPLOYMENT
OF RETIRED MEMBERS OF THE UNIFORMED SERVICES, AND FOR
OTHER PURPOSES
PURPOSE
1. To authorize the employment of retired military personnel, and to
permit such personnel to receive full civilian pay but to limit retired
pay to the first $2,000 of such retired pay plus one-half of the remain-
der, if any. The President would be given the authority to grant
exceptions to this limitation on combined compensation if it is deter-
mined such exceptions are to be necessary in order to meet special or
emergency Government employment needs.
2. To authorize a "fresh start" principle with respect to retired
military personnel who accept Federal civilian employment. With the
exception of those whose retirement is based on disability as a result of
armed conflict, or caused by an instrumentality of war in time of war,
and of those whose retired pay is based on less than 6 years of con-
tinuous full-time active duty, retired military personnel would not
receive veterans' preference nor would their military time count in
computing leave, retirement, or reduction-in-force retention credits.
3. To continue the policies of exempting certain military personnel
disabled in line of duty from the restrictions on employment of retired
military personnel. Those retiring with less than 6 years of continuous
active duty would also be exempted.
4. To limit civilian employees in the Federal Government to com-
pensation for one full-time position, unless an exception to this re-
striction is granted by the Civil Service Commission on the basis 'of
Government employment needs.
5. To make uniform, simplify, and consolidate in one law all statu-
tory provisions relating to the Federal civilian employment of retired
military personnel and the dual employment of Federal civilian
employees.
There are a considerable number of statutes relating to the dual
employment and dual compensation of Federal civilian and retired
military presonnel. The earliest of these was enacted in 1894; the
most recent, in 1961. These statutes are complicated: some are over-
lapping, some are inconsistent, and a number are no longer realistic in
the light of current conditions. Because the basic statutes arbitrarily
restrict employment and are out of date, many special exceptions have
been sought and granted.
The basic intent of the early dual employment and dual compensa-
tion laws was not to prohibit entirely the dual employment of civilian
employees or the hiring of retired military personnel. The purpose

14 DUAL EMPLOYMENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION
was primarily to limit such employment to it reasonable extent -
reasonable from the points of view of both the Government and the
employee. When the present dollar limits were set many years ago,
they represented it reasonable annual income for one person; however,
because of the difFerences hctwcen today's salary levels and living
costs and those of 60 (or even 20) rears ago, the restrictions now-
serve as a bar rather than a limitation. '1$us, the present effect of
the basic statutes differs markedly from that originallly intended.
A second consequence of the rigid limits in the basic laws has been
the enactment, over the years. of legislation to meet, one special
situation or another. While many of these statutes are identified as
exceptions to Lite basic restrictions, they are not necessarily incon-
sistent with the original purpose of Lite ('ctngress, which, as mentioned
earlier, was to permit dual employment within reasonable limits.
The cumulative effect, of these various nets of Congress, however, is
u body of law that, fails to provide it consistent policy for the em-
ployment of Federal civilian personnel in more than one capacity or
or the miring of retired military personnel.
L'mploymcat of retired military personnel
The present restrictions oil the employment of retired military per-
sonnel in civilian positions are inconsistent and inequitable and have
no relation to the Government's hiring needs. Various categories of
niilitnrv retirees are exempted from the prohibitions and restrictions.
All enlisted men, certain coanniiSsioned officers, and sonic warrtint
Officers retired from lnilital,v service may now be hired for Federal civil-
ian jobs without. restriction on the receipt of retired pay. At present,
certain Regular offncens and warrant officers retired for age. or length of
service are the only retirees who cannot boll Federal positions if either
their retired pay tot- tlie salary of the position is $2,500 it year or
more. Disaibled Regular oflicers whose disability was not incurred
in combat or caused l)v tut instrunientaliIN of war in time of war the
limited to a I naximuun combined rate of $10,000 it veer for Federal
civilian salary and military retired pray.
Among t-he retired officers still subject to restrictions are many who
possess special skills that are partiellllrly vtllaltlble to the Government.
Under present law, these skills, often developed at Government ex-
pense, are available and attracted to private industry but not to the
Federal civil service.
't'he need for revision of t-ho preselit restrictions is of long standing
and has been widely recognized in both the legislative and executive
branches. Ill his last- budget utessage to the Congress, President
Eisenhower included this shit-enient
"A number of outmoded and inconsistent statutes now regulate the

with It single rational statute which would eliminate unnecessary

DUAL EMPLOYMENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION
In the present state of national need, this investment cannot be
permitted to be thrown away. The dual compensation laws should
be reviewed and amended."
Dual employment of civilians
The present restrictions on dual civilian employment also hamper
effective Government manpower utilization. The Postmaster Gen-
eral may employ for postal duties, in addition to their regular duties,
custodial employees who are under the jurisdiction of the General
Services Administration at Federal buildings occupied ''in any part
by the postal service, but he is prohibited from hiring other employees
of other agencies for part-time work during the Christmas
The Agriculture and Interior Departments cannot hire critically
needed, and available Federal employees as emergency firefighters
These are avoidable difficulties that should be eliminated.
Problems in administering present laws
Administrative difficulties under the present laws impede efficient
Government management. The complexity of the statutes make
economy of administration impossible. Agencies encounter continual
problems in their efforts to make sure that existing restrictions are
observed. The cost involved in attempting to reconcile the various
statutes as applied to specific cases is known to be large, even though
it cannot be accurately estimated for any given period of time.
Numerous decisions of the Comptroller General have been required.
Appointing, payroll, certifying, and disbursing officers must be
conversant with a large body of highly complicated law.
Injustices to individuals have also occurred because of misinforma-
tion and erroneous conceptions of what the law requires. Private
bills have been introduced in Congress to relieve cases of unusual
hardship that have resulted from such situations.
At the present time, a situation exists where it may be necessary
because of recent legal decisions, unless legislative relief is obtained,
retroactively to subject approximately 500 retired commissioned
Army of the United States officers and an unknown number of retired
commissioned Air Force officers to the dual compensation restrictions
of section 12 of the Economy Act of 1932. Similarly, under a recent
Comptroller General decision, a number of retired temporary warrant
officers have been found to be serving in Federal civilian positions in
violation of the Dual Office Holding Act of 1894.
Summary
Thus, the current situation is that the dual compensation-dual
employment laws are inequitable, are difficult to administer, and pre-
vent the Government from obtaining certain well-qualified personnel
for hard-to-fill positions.
Employment of retired military personnel
The proposed law would repeal the statutory provisions whip-h, in
effect, prohibit certain categories of retired Regular officers from hold-
ing a Federal civilian job. The policy, expressed in several statutes,
of limiting the amount of combined income from military retirement
and civilian pay would be continued but would be modified to estab-
lish consistent treatment for all the various categories of retired mili-

tare personnel. Limitations on combined compensation would be
reasonable in term of present salary levels and dollar values.
The proposed law would also establish a "fresh start" principle for
retired military personnel employed in Federal civilian jobs. Since
persons retiring from the, military service have generally realized
retirement benefits based on a military career, it seems desirable and
equitable for them to start Federal civilian careers on the same basis
as others who are also entering the civil service for the fast time.
Therefore, the bill would (a) require that their prior military service
not be counted in computing length of service for reduction-in-force,
leave, and ret.ireiuent puuposes, and (b) withhold veterans' preference.
The purpose of the Veterans' Preference Act of 1944 was primarily
to provide preference for civil service employment to those veterans
who had interrupted their regular civilian careers to enter military
service during tuue of war.
The proposed law would continue the principle of treating separately
those retired military personnel whose retirement was based on
disability resulting froin an injury or disease received in line of duty
as a direct result of armed conflict, or caused by an instrumentality of
war and incurred in line of duty during a period of war. Such persons
would not be subject to the limitations on combined compensation,
would continue to receive veterans' preference, and would continue to
receive credit for length of military service in computation of retention
credits for reduction-in-force purposes. Similar treatment would be
accorded retired military pesonnel who retire with less than 6 years of
continuous full-time active duty. Such persons are typically (1)
those whose military careers were cut short because of physical dis-
ability, or (2) those who were in the military service during a time of
emergency and who continued to participate in the reserve program
after they returned to civilian life.
I n view of the fact that there are certain occupations for which it is
difficult to obtain well-qualified personnel, the proposed law would
give the ]'resident authority to grant exceptions to the. above-men-
tioned limitations on combined compensation. Exceptions could
also be granted to meet emergency situations.
Those retired military personnel who are already employed in the
Federal service would retain their present rights with regard to vet-
erans' preference and credit for military service. They could elect
either to remain subject to the present limitations on compensation
or to come under the provisions of the proposed law.
The bill would also provide relief to a large number of retired coin-
L_
and warrant officers holding temporary appointments in
the Army and Air Force of the United States who are faced with the
possibility of returning to the Government overpayments of military
retired pay or civilian salary required by recent decisions that such
retired members should have been considered subject to the re-
strictions (1) prescribed by section 212 of the Economy Act of 1932,
in the case of the retired commissioned officers, and (2) prescribed
in the act of July 31, 1894, in the case of the retired warrant officers.
it, is recognized that there are sonic controversial issues involved
in the employment. of retired military personnel in Federal civilian
positions. Some people maintain that a retired military person has
earned his military retirement pay as a result of his military service;
therefore, if he is employed by the Governnnnet in a civilian capacity

DUAL
he is entitled to both his full military retirement pay and the regular
civilian pay for the position. Others believe that no person should
receive retired pay and regular pay from a single employer at the same
time. The proposed bill represents what seems to be a reasonable
middle ground between these two points of view, by providing that
$2,000 of the retired pay, the approximate average non-disability
retired pay received by enlisted personnel, plus % of the remainder
may be paid along with the regular pay for the civilian position.
This restriction on combined compensation would apply to most
retired military personnel, including a number of categories to which
no such restrictions now apply, but not to those whose retirement is
based on disability resulting from armed conflict, or caused by an
instrumentality of war in time of war, or to those whose retired pay
is based on less than 6 years of continuous full-time active duty.
Some people also maintain that retired military personnel have an
unfair advantage over other civilian employees in a reduction in force
by reason of veterans' preference eligibility and credit for years of
military service. This advantage had been eliminated by the "fresh
start" principle explained above.
Dual employment of civilians
Those portions of the bill which deal with employment of civilian
employees in more than one position may be less controversial but are
no less important. The proposed law would limit civilian employees
to one full-time job; part-time employees would be limited to a combi-
nation of part-time positions equaling one full-time position. The
Commission would be authorized to grant exceptions to these restric-
tions when the Government could not otherwise readily obtain the
needed services. This authority to grant exceptions would be used to
meet situations of the kind which now have to be expected by statute.
An example is the exception, granted by law, which permits District
of Columbia teachers to accept additional compensation for services
rendered in connection with the operation of night schools in the public
schools of the District of Columbia.
Summary
In summary, the proposed legislation would make an important
source of skilled manpower available to the Government, would elimi-
nate inequities in the treatment of retired military personnel, and would
provide a single modern statute in place of a collection of overlapping
and outdated laws.

PLOYMENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION
the dual compensation bill, II.R. 7381, as it now appears on the
calendar of the House of Representatives.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration favors the
proposed legislation in order (1) to permit the Government to capi-
talize on certain skills, competence, and experience in the areas of
aerospace science and technology possessed by a sizable group of
military personnel who have completed their active duty careers
and (2) to correct certain inequities in the present statutes pertaining
to the employment of these personnel by the Government.
Many of the abilities and skills and much of the knowledge valuable
to NASA are possessed by certain military personnel who have been
closely associated with missile and military space programs and
aeronautics. Collectively, this body of men, educated and skilled
in aerospace science and teaclhnology, represents it reservoir of knowl-
edge and experience which constitutes a national asset of inestimable
value. Unless it substantial portion of this group of specialists
can be attracted to remain in the Government. this asset will not
be availablo directly to the (government's space program.
As of December I. 1963, 254 active duly military officers were
detailed to NASA from the Department, of Defense for a 2- to 3-year
tour of duty. Attached is it list of those officers.
The officers are primarily engineers, physical scientists. and admin-
istrative specialists whose backgrounds are directly pertinent to
NASA's work. Of the 254 officers, 43 are of senior rank, and are
performing key technical or management assignments. The senior
grade officers in particular represent the type of personnel NASA
desires to employ because of their specialized education and experi-
ence. The number of personnel so employed would be probably
fewer than a0 in a fiscal year; however, each selection would repre-
sent the utilization of the very specialized talent and would signifi-
cantly benefit the national space program.
The NASA has under its basic act, authority to employ retired
military personnel without regard to the Dual Office Act of 1894. A
similar exemption would be provided on a Government-wide basis by
S. 1912 and II.R. 7381 as carried on the calendar in the House. In
view of the fact that the dual office restriction does not now apply
to the employment of retired military personnel by the NASA, this
report, addresses itself only to the dual compensation restrictions
applicable to such employment under section 212 of the Economy
Act of 1932.
The preferential treatment accorded most retired Reserve officers
as compared to most retired Regulars under the current dual compen-
sation law is felt within NASA. To permit one to accept his retire-
ment pay and not the other is unfair. There appears to be no valid
reason for this distinction.
It is understood that Mr. J. Macy, Chairman of the Civil Service
Commission, recommended at the hearing on December 12, 1963,
that, the amount of retirement, pay to be retained by retired officers
in Government positions be raised from the first $2,000 of such pay
plus one-half of the remainder, as presently stated in section 102(a)
of 5.. 1912, to the first 52,500 of such pay plus one-half of the remainder.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration endorses this
recommendation.
NASA needs technical personnel highly trained and experienced in
the space sciences and engineering. Retired officers meeting these

criteria would be qualified to fill vacancies in NASA carrying salaries
well above the level at which retirement pay is forfeited under the
existing dual compensation law. Under these circumstances, NASA
as a rule cannot successfully compete with industry for the services
of these tecimically competent and experienced people.
The following cases are cited as typical of the problems being faced
by NASA in attempting to fill key positions by employing retired
military personnel competent and experienced in the aerospace field:
(1) A few months ago, a colonel retired from the U.S. Air Force
after 23 years of military service including program management,
commander of the. test wing at Cape Kennedy during the critical
Thor-Atlas period,' and test commander at the. Special Weapons
Center. He was offered $20,000 as an Assistant Director of NASA's
Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston. Ile declined in, favor of a
$27,000 position with Space Technology Laboratories in which posi-
tion he would still be able to draw his $7,000 military retirement pay.
Dr. Walter Williams, who was then our Deputy Director at Houston
and is now here at headquarters, believes the colonel would have
accepted the NASA position if lie could have retained his retirement
pay.
(2) Recently a Navy captain, who was on duty at NASA's Manned
Spacecraft Center in Houston as a branch chief, and who had served
previously as range operations officer at Point Mugu., Calif., and in
space surveillance at Dahlgren, Va., retired from the Navy. His
experience was appropriate to work in the development of our Apollo
tracking network, including coordination with the Jet Propulsion
Laboratory, the Goddard Space Flight Center, and military tracking
systems. Prior to retirement, he indicated an interest in a position
with NASA. However, he accepted a position with private industry
because NASA was unable to give him a position at the $18,000 to
$20,000 level, which would have compensated in some measure for the
loss of his retirement pay.
(3) A recently retired Navy captain, whose final year of active duty
was served on detail at NASA headquarters as a division director,
has accepted a most important NASA position as Director of Manned
Space Flight Field Center Development, in anticipation of relief from
the limitations imposed by the present dual compensation law. Were
it not for the present law, he would be eligible to receive more than
$6,000 retirement pay. With his qualifications, his services have been
and continue to be sought by industry at a high level salary. While
he would like to continue in the NASA program, he feels that he
cannot afford to accept the financial penalty indefinitely.
(4) Similarly, a senior Army colonel who has been serving as pro-
gram manager for the Saturn I/IB programs at the George C. Marshall
Space Flight Center, Huntsville, Ala., has retired and has accepted
civilian employment with NASA in anticipation of passage of this
legislation.
(5) A Navy captain with over 30 years of service and extensive
management experience in rocket testing and aerospace sciences is
currently manager of the NASA Mississippi test operations, Gaines-
ville, Miss. He faces statutory retirement in 1964. Ile doubts
whether he can accept the penalty of forfeiting over $9,500 retire-
ment pay for civilian employment with NASA, although he has ex-
pressed a strong desire to remain with the NASA program

20 DUAL E.III'LOYMENT AND DUAL COMPENSATION
(6) A U.S. Air Force colonel who is currently occupying a key
position at our George C. Marshall Space Flight Center at Huntsville,
Ala., is an additional example of a lushly qualified officer who would
like to continue in the N SSA program ii the financial penalty is
removed.
(7) NASA has in its employ at the present time several senior
retired Regular military personnel. One is on the Deputy Associate
Administrator level, w)uch is the highest level of general executives
within the agency. These officers have served in industry at much
higher combined industry and military retirement pay thaii they are
p~Irescratly receiving at NASA. Like many civilian personnel in the
higher executive Craackets, they are willing to forgo, for a while at
least, the attraction of the higher salary of industry in exchange for
the experience and the personal satisfaction of participating firsthand
in the Nation's space program. However, NASA can expect to lose
the services of some of these men after a period of tune, if they must
continue to forfeit all or most of their retirement pay. This financial
penalty in some. cases approaches one-half to two-thirds of their
salaries at NASA.
Much of the specialized knowledge and managerial experience
which are required by NASA are possessed only by military personnel
who have been closely associated for an ext.endecd period with missile
amid military space programs. There is an urgent need within NASA
to draw on this source of experienced talent to fdl some of the higher
bracket executive positions which NASA has been unable to fill from
other sources. In fact. NASA has recently addressed requests to the
U.S. Air Force for the temporary nssirnnnient? to NASA of two active
duty officers at the brigadier general7colonel level to fill managerial
positions in the maimed space flight. program. It is expected that it
will be necessary in the near future to request three more active duty
officers of these rank,, experienced in rograin management.
At the time than the hearings on 11.1t. 7381 were being held letters
from the three NASA Center Directors most heavily involved in the
manned space flight program, expressing their strong interest in the
provisions of tlie legislatioai as a means of assisting them in meeting
their key personnel problems were made a part of the official record.
Copies of these letters are attached.
In the light, of all of the foregoing discussion, the National Aero-
nautics and Space Administration reconrnmelids that S. 1912 be enacted.
The Bureau of Lite Budget has advised that there is no objection
froth the standpoint of the administration's program, to the presenta-
tion of the report for the consideration of the committee.
Sincereiv vous,
.JAMS E. \S EnB, Admiministrator.
