But a change in retirement law prevented this so the city budgetmakers last year appropriated for an annuity insur ance policy, in the city's name, that would provide $60 monthly in come for Mathewson at age 60. H'jher Retirement To increase this to $123 monthly benefits upon retirement, , the bud- git committee last night at City all appropriated $650 for added annual premium cost plus $350 added salary for the manager to partially offset the higher income tax he will have to pay in connec tion with the new policy. This boosts the manager's salary to $14,563, which Mayor White said Is below average on the Pacific Coast. Because East Salem annexation was defeated by voters, the budget - makers cut $18,500 from sewer and water budget items earmarked for that area. But revenues also were cut because most- of the work would have been' paid for by the property owners, so no savings re sulted. This did have the effect, how ever, of bringing the overall budget figure down to $4,370,000.
