f " rstory also
A higher salary schedule for city-of Salem employes -was ap
proved Friday nijjht by an 8 to 6 vote of the citizens budget com
mittee after examination of several salary plans. $ ; ' r'
ODDOsition to the adopted plan stemmed front those who favored
. Oat-figured Increase "across we
board," those who favored a high-
er increase in general and those
who favored a straight percentage
increase.
The new pay will be S cents an
hour or 12 per cent higher for la
bor, 10 per cent higher for em
ployes receiving up to $400 and S
per cent for those higher paid.
: Voting for this pay raise' were
Albert H. Gille, Claud Jorgensen,
Daniel J. Fry. David O'Hara, Rob
ert F. White, Paul Hendricks, Fred
Paulus and Ed Randle. Voting
gainst it were James .Nicholson,
Thomas Armstrong, Alfred VT.
Loucks, Mrs. Verne Axelsan, Dr.
E e. Boring and James C. -Stone.
Absent last nighf were Bruce Wil
liams. Earl Burk. E. S. Benjamin
and Russell Bonesteele. O'Hara is
the budget chairman.
The adopted pay plan was of
fered by Alderman White, as re
vision of a salry subcommittee re
port from Alderman Armstrong
favoring a straight 10 per cent in
crease of salaries and IS cents an
hour of wages.
. A minority report from sub
committee member Williams had
called for a flat $35 raise for all
salaried employes. This type of
flat raise was endorsed by Her
bert E. Barker, central labor
council executive, who also asked
a 50 cent hourly raise for labor.
The civil service commission
had recommended generally high
er raises for police and fire de
partment men the only city em
ployes under civil service. Chair
man W. J. En tress said better pay
is needed if the city expects to
attract and keep qualified men in
these hazardous jobs.
; The tentative pay plan which
appeared in the city manager's
budget draft had called for in
creases of 25 cents, an hour on
wages, 12 per cent on salaries un
der $300 monthly and 10 per cent
on the higher salaries.
The budget draft carrying this
pay schedule was in balance ex
cept for omission of an emergency
fund .It was the search for $20,000
or more for this purpose which
nsparked the salary and economy
' arguments.
! On top of this, the city learned
only recently that it will have to
pay a higher contribution to "the
public retirement system for cov
ered city employes. This meant
pungling up $4,730 more.
bSome departments figured their
yroll requirement more -closely
make up part of the need, and
these were to go into the revised
budget, including . probably the
saving of a police salary "after the
retirement of Assistant Police
Chief E. C. Charlton. - -i
J One of the warmest salary
questions was raised by O'Hara
and Gille over the duties of C A.

Salem bowling alleys will offer
no more free prizes for high scores,
Police Chief Clyde A. Warren re
ported Friday.- ? ?
Warren said city detectives had
notified bowling; alley proprietors
that such prizes are a violation of
a city ordinance. -Tho
bowling alleys' were caught
in the backwash of a police crack
down on taverns and cafes that
offered similar prizes fori high
scores on coin-operated bowling
and shuzile board machines. After
clamping down on the plnball-type
bowling machines,, police were
obliged to enforce the same ruling
xor conventional oowiing. i
The city ordinance involved was
passed in 1924. Police refer to it
as a "tight" ordinance because It
prohibits virtually every type of
gaming device, lottery and ; give
away pian. i !
