At a White House news conference, Shultz also said the President had decided to freeze salaries m the federal executive branch, Congress and the judiciary. And as an example of the belt tigntening philosophy. Shultz said there ..ould be very substantial reductions in the Presidents own staff. Nixor. also imposed a companion fiecze on hiring and promotions for all federal, civilian and military personnel through late January, when the 1974 budget will be sent to Congress.

To Extend Controls To help decide this question, Shultz said there would be a wide process of consultation with labor, Congress, consumers and members of the current economic stabilization program. On related topics, Shultz said the President had been successful in holding spending in the current budget to $250 billion and that the budget for fiscal 1974, which will be submitted to Congress in January, would be in balance on a full employment basis. Shultz said the presidential decisions on the controls were mutually and supporinterdependent He said it reflected tive. Nixons strong determination to maintain the fight against inflation in the strongest way possible. The pay action freezes the current salaries of all members of government at the federal executive level. This includes members of government, Ruling Party gressmen and federal judges. It covers salary scales ranging from $36,009 to $60,000. The hiring freeze in the executive branch will last at least until late January, when Nixon sends to Congress his budget for fiscal 1974, beginning July 1, 1973.
