County Budget I!b 1 sTfc Doara neviews WageSet-Up (Story also aa page oae) Marion county budget commit tee, meeting here this week, voted a $10 per month raise increase Tuesday for about 85 county em ployes only after a lively discus sion of the entire county wage set up. The measure was approved on motion of County Commissioner Roy Rice. Rice said the pay in crease would mean about 5 cents per hour boost for county road crews. He pointed out that in gen eral county road crew scales were in line with those paid by the state highway commission. Lone Dissenting Vote County Judge Grant Murphy cast the only vote disapproving the committee's action. He said he had wanted "a less rigid sched ule" which would have allowed the committee to make salary re adjustments as it saw fit. He said he favored a general $15 per month increase, which, he said, would add about $19,000 to the budget. "Although county salary in creases have been granted steadily year after year, nevertheless, the increass have hardly kept pace with other public employes sal aries such as city and state." the Judge said. "When the county scale becdmes too low then county offices be come merely a training ground for state office employes. When county wages, however, are com parable with other groups then office heads can count on increas ed efficiency." Wages Too Low A. C. Haag added that he "had always thought" that county wages wore too low. He said he favored balancing the budget and then equalizing wage increases over all county offices. John Ramage stated that "we are going have to quit raising sal aries sometimes. The cost of living has gone down and taxes are ris ing. Judge Murphy answered that county taxes for the next fiscal year would remain the same if the budget is kept within the 6 per cent limitation. Speaking of the 1949-50 budget in general Judge Murphy noted that requests amounted to about $255,000 more than the current year's requested a propria tions. He said the committee faced the task of paring requests down about $158,000 to keep the budget in balance. The budget is expected to reach about $3,000,000 for the next fiscal year beginning July 1 Scio Church Group Meets JEFFERSON Mrs. C. J.

Camping Trip Attracts 120 Scout Leaders Civil S ervice Board to Revive Age Limit Issue Salem's covil service commis sion will renew efforts to settle on an! age limit change for city police officer examinations at a meeting in the city hall at 2:30 p. m. Wednesday. Only two members of the com mission, W. J. Entress and Richard Severin, will be on hand to hear the legal recommendation of Paul Hendricks, former city attorney, of whether Officers not now under civil service will be able to take examinations even though over age. Commissioner Lyle Page has resigned and the city council has not agreed dn a new member. Changes in regulations for po lice officers, would shift the age limits j from ! 27-40 to 21-35. Also proposed is a rule to include radio operators and the juvenile officer under; civil j service. If the age change is approved several mem bers of the fdio staff and Harvey Tautfest, juvenile officer, would be ineligible for the examination. Referred to Hendricks at a spe cial meeting March 29 was the question of whether officers al ready in the department, but over age, should be allowed to take the examination. Two young patrolmen are not eligible for police examinations under pres&nt civil service rules because they are under the 27 year minimum. James Hammaok and David Bain are both 25 years of ag but have been on temporary duty with the department for sev eral months. i PEDES' Mr. and Mrs. Vernon McDowell are the parents of an 8 pound; 9 ounce girL Theresa Maria, born April 12.
