Parsed By House After Argument Four separate bills to raise the salaries of Oregon's ton officials a total ol $9350 a year were over their first hurdle! today the house of representatives but at least one of them appeared to be headed for a stormy course from here on. ' ; ; :! j i The house Monday, by a vote of .4$ to 8, approved increasing the pay of the governor from $7500 to $9000, secretary of state and state treasurer from $5400 to $6000 and n in I ?. . . ine auorney general; irom souOU to $5750. I ( The vote originally ; was 45 to 9, but Rep. Vernon Bull of Union county asked hat his Ifno" vote be changed to "yjes" so that he would retain the right to ask for recon sideration, j: . I , The v other house bill passed Monday, 41 to 14, wuld increase the salaries of supreme court jus tices from $7500 to $8000. Previously,; the house passed measures boefsting the salary of the ; state school, superintendent from. $4000 tdi$5400 and the labor commissioner jfrore $4000 to $5000. Rep. John Steelhantmer of Mar Ion county, chairman: of the com mittee on reorganization and ad ministration which reported out do j pass" recommendations, de clared the salaries were not aimed for specific persons but that the house was "voting n what the offices and duties of this state call for.? -: Rep. Warren Erwin of Portland said the officials now were "pret ty well paid,, and said he "shud dered" to think what the elector ate would think of i such ' salary raises. Steelhammer in closing the argument said Multnomah county officers wouli receive as much as $6000 and don't think there's any ; shuddering eve? . that." RCp. Joseph Harvey of Portland opposed the increases, cited seven eenerais and s admirals who re ceive $8000, and declared that while California salaries were higher "California has' seven times the population of Oregon." Rep. Ralph Moore of Bandon declared that the state officers were required to spend far; more than Just their salaries, and would continue to do so even with the raises recommended, because of the demands made on them. He termed the bills revenue rather than salary measures, and asked their approval. A comparison, per fear, of pres ent and proposed salaries: Present Suggested Tota ' s- - . i -- -.
