Senate opens debate today on a
bill giving President Nixon an
extra year to continue wage-
price controls but also allowing
most pay hikes stopped by the
Aug 15-Nov. 14 freeze.
Senate leaders said they
hoped to complete action on the
measure tomorrow. It was un-
certain whether the Nixon ad-
ministration would try to knock
out the retroactive pay feature
which it opposes.
This feature is specifically
designed to give pay raises to
teachers and others who were
denied them because of the date
selected for the freeze.
