MEMORANDUM

FROM: THOMAS HOWARTH
BUDGET OFFFeER
DATE : JUNE 14 , 1977
RE : JOAN T_ THORNELL , LETTER RE LEAVE
Mrs. Thornell left at the close of business
on
Friday, May 13_ 1977 _ As the Committee had no leave
policy at that time, she made her termination effective
Sunday 15 _ 1977 , at my suggestion,_ SO that she
would receive two days extra in pay .
Mrs Thornell began employment November 8 ,
1976 and left 13 , 1977 _ Under the Clerk of the
House' s leave policy, she woula be entitled to 5.' days ,
no
credit being given for a fraction of a month when
hired
or a fraction of a month when terminated _
The Clerk' s policy further states there
are no
provisions to permit reimbursement to an employee
upon termination for any accumulation of leave However ,
to the extent possible ana practicable every effort
should be made to consider
such accuulation
when sub_
mitting
a recommendation for termination
Twelve Committee Staff Members with a total
of 42 days accumulated leave who have terminated in-
cluding
one who terminated the same as Mrs _ Thornell,
were given no credit for their leave because the
Committee had no policy at that time_
This fact and the fact that Mrs _ Thornell
was paid for six days past 13
1
in my opinion , dis-
credits Mrs _ Thornell claim to "the punitive nature of
the decision_ II The facts clearly show that Mrs _
Thornell was
given special consideration_

For the record, Acting Chief Counsel Al Lewis
was paid for no accumulated leave. After Mr _ Lewis left
the Committee_ he was kept on the payroll long enough to
recover his back salary which I understana was the
Committee' s request . (Mrs _ Thornell had already recovered
her back salary-)
As to Mrs _ Thornell's break in service , I
have been told the Finance Office that such a break
has no effect whatsoever on the transfer of her benefits _

1977
Hon Louis B . Stokes
Chairman
Select Committee on Assassinations
U S House of Representatives
Washington, D. C. 20515
Dear Chairman Stokes:
The circumstances of my departure from the Committee staff
have saddened me because of the following:
On 6 1977 in writing (enclosed) I advised the then-
Acting Chief? Counsei
and Staff Director, Alvin B. Lewis Jr.
of my intention to Ieave the staff as of 15, 1977 pjus
whatever vacation time I had accrued since my ` date of entry to
service, November 8, 1976 .
Since there was no forma] Ieave policy estab]ished by the
Commi ttee at the date of my notice and since I was aware of
leave being extended to
the Acting Chief Counsel who was also
Ieaving service at about the same time
3
I
began making inquiries
about my own accrued Ieave _
On Thursday 12, Thomas Howarth
9
the Budget Officer,
advised me
verbaily that he had not yet cleared with you the
rate of Ieave to be extended to me in days accrued per month ,
but he thought that a rate of one per month was going to
be approved_ On that basis he calculated that I would be
a] Iowed 5.1/2 or 6 days of Ieave _
When I began a
new appointment with a Federa] agency on
Monday_ I called Mr:_ Howarth from the new personnel
0ffice to establish my date 0f termination in order to comply
with the Federal Taw which prohibits Federa] employees from
recei payment from more than one Federal source at a
time _ In other words I was attempting to clear the date of
23 as a
starting date for the new employment_
At that time, Mr _ Howarth advised that I had been terminated
on 19 based on a
calculation of Ieave beginning 14 for
a tota] of 6 days which included counting weekend days in
the Teave period. At the time 0f our initial conversation, hOw-

2 -
ever, I was not advised that weekend would be counted in the
calculation of the Ieave period.
He further advised that since the House payrol1 system is
based on a
30-day month_ for purposes of calculating
a termination
date he counted weekend days whereas a vacati employee who
would be returning to work after vacation would not have weekend
days counted_ (I checked with the Committee on House Administra-
tion and learned that though each Committee establishes its own Jeave policy it is unusual to pena] ize a terminating emp]oyee
by counting in weekend .
Inasmuch as there was no written leave policy
I had no way of anticipating his method of calculating Teave_
And because of
the punitive nature 0f the decision I have suffered
a break in
service which
may affect seriously
my transfer of benefits from
the House of Representatives to my new emp]oyment. Had I been
aware of his method of calculating Jeave
3
my dates of departure
from the Commi ttee, obvious Iy , would have been different.
I hope that you wi1] review the calculation of my date of departure and act swi ftly to rectify the situation to a] 1Ow my termination date from the Committee to be set at Fri 20 ,
1977
5
which would reflect 5 working days
Ieave from the Committee .
I have already acted to begin employment at the Department
0f the Treasury
as 0f 23 . I gladly forfeit the 6th vacation
which would have been 23_
Thank you in advance for your kind attention to this matter
and I Iook forward to hearing from you
soon _
Sincerely ,
Joal falbert Thornell

Dear Chairman Stokes:
The circumstances of my departure from the Committee staff
have saddened Me because 0f the following:
On 6 1977 in writing (enclosed)
I advised the then-
Acting Chief Counsel and Staff Director Alvin B . Lewis Jr _
of my intention to Teave the staff as: of 15, 1977 plus
whatever vacation time I had accrued since my date of entry to

Since there was: no forma] Ieave policy established by the
