The amount of the raise has not yet been determined but is expected to be between 5.5 and 6 percent and, applying both to more than four million civilian employes and military personnel, would cost about $2.6 billion on an annual basis. Nixon, in ordering a delay that would save about $1.3 billion, said this not only would help to fight inflation by curbing government spending but also would partly offset revenue losses from" tax cuts he has proposed. Opponents of his order said it is unfair to federal employes to keep their pay frozen until July 1 if employes in the private sector were not to have their pay frozen after Nov. 13. Some opponents of the delay have noted also that a $2.4 billion military pay See Page 2, Column 1 wage-price-re- Taft-hartle- y The Big Question temporarily. court Judge Frank McGarr signed a temporary inpinction against grain elevator operators at the Port of Chicago ending for 10 strike against 11 days their month-olmajor grain suppliers.

Delayed Order U.S. District Court Judge Spencer Williams in San Francisco agreed to the government request for an injunction in the West Coast strike but delayed formal issuing of the order to study technical wording of the writ. His order when issued was expected to call for an immediate return to work by 15,000 longshoremen for an cooling off period as provided by the national labor law. During the hearing, union attorney Richard Gladstein told the judge: Union officers will not thumb their nose at the courts order. Any order given by the court will be explained to members and our obligations under it will be spelled out. Union officials had no immediate comment. y Heart of Issue c issue is whether there will be irreparable harm if the order is not granted," said Williams. I believe such a situation does exist and a showing has been made that such ii reparable harm will re-a- lt if the order is not granted. In the San Francisco suit, the administration raised the possibility of the losd of U.S. export revenue because of the strike. In an affidavit signed by Agriculture Secretary Clifford M.

By Edmond LeBreton Associated Press Writer While ordering court action on the West Coast and Chicago dock strikes, President Nixon refrained from invoking Law against the the strike of 45,000 dock workers on East Coast and Gulf Coast ports. Instead, he sent federal officials to New York in an urgent effort to get negotiations off dead center. Court papers prepared for both suits echoed Nixons assertion w'her. he ordered the actions earlier Wednesday that the strikes, if permitted to continue, will imperil the national health and safety. Both suits ask the courts to require the unions and thp companies they are sti iking to attempt to resolve their differcollective barences through cooling-of- f gaining during the period.

Mathias, and Franit E. Moss, sponsors of the amendment adopted by the Senate, interpreted its effect differently. Prove Meaningless Moss, author of the language finally approved, said it would prove meaningless unless the Senate follows through with a vote Thursday vetoing Nixons postponement of the scheduled pay raise. But Mathias said that if the amendment is accepted by the House, it will prevail over the Presidents executive order regardless of whether the Senate votes to disapprove the order. The House already has upheld Nixons vote on order, defeating by a Monday a resolution to disapprove it.

The amendment was put into the bill two weeks ago by a vote, but it is, virtually identical to one attached by n Mansfield to the earlier bill and watered down by House conferees on that legislation. The administration opposes the Mansfield language. Hebert has already told reporters that he is dead set against the Senate amendment, sponsored by Sen. Gordon Allot, providing another $381 million in annual boosts in pay for the lower ranks of the armed forces. This raise, effective Nov. 16, would come on top of a $2,366 billion annual raise provided by the draft bill. The administration initially opposed the higher scale but reluctantly agreed to endorse it, when Allott offered the $381 million amendment as the price of Allotts final assent to the draft bill. draft-extensio- Rhodesia amendment Stays Same in The Rhodesia amendment, sponsored by Virginias Harry Flood Byrd Jr., Ind., was locked into the procurement roll-cavote bill Wednesday by a the fifth floor vote on the proposal.

Former President Johnson iml posed the ban on chrome imports in 19&3 in accord with a U.N. vote. Byrd said the United States urgently needs the chrome for steel production and other industrial processes, but Sens. J. W.

He expressed disappointment that Riad had not underlined any areas of possible agreement and said, It is evident that if there is to be progress in the peacemaking efforts Egypt must abandon its inflexible attitude.
