WAGE INCREASES OPPOSED Mayor Quite Ready to Adopt That Tart of Ordinance Making Sav- ins by Cutting Out XJn necessary Employes. City Commissioner Kellaher'a ordi nance to take control of the city incin erator from William Helber and give it to C. H. Feldman and to abolish several positions at the plant and to raise the wages of firemen and laborers was defeated by the City Council yester day because of the wage increase feature of the plan. Mayor Baker and Commissioners Mann and Bigelow all objected to in creasing: tho laborers and firemen in the Incinerator without giving the came consideration to laborers and firemen in other departments, such as the sewer bureau, the street cleaning department and the park bureau. The fliscussion stirred up considerable liea ted argument among the Commis sioners, 11 r. Mann GItcs Reasons. Commissioner Mann objected to the Ordinance as soon as it was brought up, declaring that he had presented a similar ordinance calling for increases for laborers when the incinerator was in his department and that Mr. Kel laher had objected to its passage until the whole question of increases could bo gone into. "I cannot see why Mr. Kellaher after having opposed the plan when I pre sented it should, now that the plant has been transferred to his department, propose the same plan and try to ride it over our heads," said Mr. Mann. "I am against the increases until the whole subject of increases can be con sidered," said Commissioner Bigelow. "That, was the understanding we had on the subject. I don't propose to stand by and see the laborers in one depart ment raised and those in another ignored." Economy Is Asserted. "It is purely a move toward economy." said Commissioner Kellaher. "I am proposing to cut out several positions which will mean a saving of about $3000 a year in the operation of the plant. There is no reason why this should not be adopted." "No reason In the world," said Mayor Baker. "I stand ready to vote for making the cuts you propose, but I am against the increases until the same sort of laborers in other departments can be given the same consideration." "To explain where I stand," said Commissioner Barbur, "I am willing to allow salary increases in any depart ment where the Commissioner has made reductions in expense. I intend to ask for increases in my department prob ably next week. I have made cuts and the money is there and I am in favor of the same thing where the same thing is done in other departments." Ko Excnse for Gloating;, Says Mayor. "None of us can do much gloating about having made big cuts and savings," said Mayor Baker. "As a matter of fact the departments were heavily overloaded with employes and it was our duty to cut. I don't think It showed any particular ability on our part and I do not think it is any rea son why we should favor laborers in one department as against those in another." "I object to being accused of tooting my horn," interposed Commissioner Barbur. "I was not attempting to gloat about my savings." "I didn't happen to be talking about you," replied Mayor Baker. ''If you wish, however, I will; I'm not afraid to, you know, and there are things that might be said." Commissioner Bigelow moved to cut out the wage Increases and to let the reduction part of the ordinance go. through. This motion was adopted but the ordinance failed to pass. SHIP KNEES RUSHED EAST Express Bill for Bulky Shipment More Than $1000. h Due to the urgent necessities of the war a shipment of eight ship knees weighing approximately one ton each has just been dispatched by express from Airlie, Or., to Cornwell, Pa., where they are to enter into vessels now un der construction. Ordinarily a shipment of this kind is handled by freight, but the manufac turer's demands caused this one to go by Wells-Fargo. It was guaranteed to reach its destination in five days. It would have required more than three weeks by freight. The charges on the shipment were more than $1000. BREWERY HEADS ACCUSED V. E. Schlnipf and Associates Al leged to Have Favored Creditors. An echo of the days before Oregon's prohibition law went into effect is heard in a suit filed in the Circuit Court yesterday by A. E. Madenspacher, trustee in bankruptcy of the North Pa cific Brewing Company, against V. E. Schimpf and other officers and di rectors of the defunct concern. Recovery of approximately $35,000. which, it is alleged, was paid out to favored creditors at a time the con cern was insolvent, is sought. The complaint asserts that approxi mately $23,000 of that amount was paid to Mrs. Jennie Schimpf, wlfeof the president and general manager of the corporation. Other alleged claims in clude one of $5541, paid to the Astoria Savings Bank. CARDROOM LICENSE PENDS Question Over Legality of Mayor's Move Is Raised. Legal questions have been raised in connection with the right of the city to license cardrooms. Accordingly, Mayor Baker had the City Council yes terday put over for a week considera tion of his ordinance to license the rooms. i "Attorneys have raised several ques tions about the ordinance," said Mayor Baker yesterday, "and for" that reason it may be best to hold it up a few days and see if the alleged legal defects cannot be straightened out."
