• James R. Jones Collection | James R. Jones Legislative Series, 1968-1986 | Post Office and Civil Service, January-September, 1975 | Letter: Don R. Hood expressing disapproval of President Ford's proposal for a 5% wage freeze for postal employees. Hood believes that only workers in the private sector will seek and obtain wages to catch up with inflation. He requests that the American Postal Workers Union be given the opportunity to negotiate their temporary cost of living allowance into their base pay and receive an increase comparable to the private sector. Congressman James R. Jones acknowledges Hood's concerns and states that his remarks will be kept in mind as legislation on federal pay increases and the rights of postal employees is considered in Congress., 1975-05-03 - 1975-05-19
