                        REPORT

                     [To accompany H. R. 8906J

   The Committee on the Judiciary, to whom was referred the bill
-I. 11. 8906, after hearing and consideration, report favorably thereon
and recommend that the bill as reported do pass.
   The purpose of this legislation.is to enable the Secretary of the
 Treasury to pay agreed compensation to all persons temporarily
 employed by the Treasury Department, prior to the retirement act,
 who had, before such employment, reached the age for retirement,
 or who had been retired and to make legal payments which have
 already been made such employees. It is urgently needed in order
 to take care of wages due persons who have performed services in
 good faith to the Government, and who, because of a decision of the
 Comptroller General on September 6, 1923, that persons subject to
 the retirement act, and who have reached the age of retirement, and
 have not been recommended for retention, or any employees appointed
 to positions within the scope of the retirement act, who are ap-
 pointed or reappointed after reaching the retirement age, can not
 legally be paid compensation. It affects 42 employees of the Govern-
 ment, who were in the custodian service, Treasury Department, and
 in many States of the Union. These persons were employed prin-
 cipally as laborers, firemen, janitors, watchmen, and in similar posi-
 tions and are a class of people who can not afford to lose wages
 for services which have been rendered the Government and in good
faith.
