These men. it was said, are subject to great stress and strain in their work, lo the hazards of disease, and to "mo tiva'ional exhaustion." Some have skills so highly specialized that, as Agency requirements shift, they become "occupation ally surplus." Since CIA can't afford to keep them on in the same work and can't find other work for them the agency must resort to "en couraged and induced attrition." Out of consideration for such men, Ihe Agency asked (or a two-part system of retirement benefits like that of the Foreign Service. II would permit an em ployee with 20 years of govern ment service to retire at age 50 with an immediate annuity amounting lo 40 per cent of salary. And it would permit Ihe Director (who has complete dis cretion to fire any CIA employe) lo give Ihosc separated involun tarily a similar immediate an nuity, or separation pay up to a year's salary, depending upon their rank. The Rivers subcommittee made several changes in Ihe bill before approving it, but voiced no disagreement with the purpose or basic form of CIA's request. And on Ocl. 110 the House, by voice vole, passed Ihe "Central Intelligence Agen cy Retirement Act of 13 for Certain Employes." Numbers Involved The early retirement syslcm is intended to cover only about .10 per cent of CIA's employes. ROMFORD,.
