Survey says U.S. firms following wage guidelines
NEW YORK (AP)—President Carter's wage and price guidelines have caused about three-quarter of the country's major companies to cut back on wage increases from the assembly line to the executive according to a survey released yesterday.
"The survey indicates the cutbacks are being felt across the board in employee paychecks, bonuses and benefit plans," said Ronald B. Goettinger, president of SISM and N.J., management consulting firm that conducted the survey of 600 large companies.
CARTER'S PLAN puts a voluntary 7 percent limit on the rise in total compensation—salary, bonus and fringe benefits—in 1979.
According to the survey, 73 percent of the companies studied have scaled back their pay raises. Those that have reduced their pay raises are the least average of 8.5 percent to about 7.1 percent.
Several of the nation's largest firms have said they would change their pay-increase plans to meet the president's guidelines. The companies are lawyers and American Telephone & Telegraph.
THE NATION'S oil companies and the Oil Chemical and Atmosic Workers Union have reached agreements to keep wage increases below 7 percent a year over the life of the contract, and trucking companies are not subject to current negotiation with the Teachers union.
Most of the attention given the guidelines has dealt with their effect on blue-collar workers.

REACTING TO Kohimie's challenge, the army sent troops into the offices of government ministries, apparently to maintain order and off a possible takeover by the rival group.
Khomeini, who made his announcement at a news conference, urged civil servants and soldiers to cooperate with Bazargan, who was not a "shadow government."
He said the government was "a real government that would oversee elections for both parties."
But the new "prime minister," reportedly the key intermediary in secret contacts between the two camps, also said he did not want to move into the Bakhti government offices.
THE EMBATTLED Bakkart told Iranian television that as long as the new government is under control, Iran will remain
"But if it comes to action, it's a different thing," he said. "I will have no objection to the announcement of a temporary government provided this government plays the role of a shadow government or future government.
"There is one Iran and one government." The 78-year-old Khomeini, who returned last week after orchestrating Iran's year-long anti-shah campaign from exile, met with reporters as thousands of followers gathered outside his headquarters.
Bazargan is an engineer, a Moslem nationalist and a long-time human rights activist who headed Iran's oil industry. He was the first prime minister of Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh.
He said Bazarang's government would conduct an election for members of a constituent assembly "to ratify the drafted constitution" for an Islamic republic. This would be followed by parliamentary elections and appointment of a permanent government.
