Senators Hopes
Remain High
The Salem Senators cannot be
counted out of the Western In
ternational league pennant race
even though the club has lost
ground during the past two
weeks. This is the opinion of
Bill Beard, playing manager and
George Emigh, business mana
ger, who with a few of their
players were luncheon guests of
the Salem Kiwanis club Tues
day noon.
Both recognized the need for
additional pitching strength.
Emigh said that there was a
shortage of capable pitchers and
other clubs were In the same po
sition. Beard remarked that
"given a bit of pitching to go
with our hitting, we will be up
around the top."
Bruce Williams performed
the duties of master of ceremo
nies and- pointed out that only
one third of the 48 games play
ed to date had taken place on
Wateis field. The club remains
in striking distance of the top
even though they are currently
on the .500 mark, he added.

Increased City Treaurer Hau-
ser's salary from $3900 to $4200.
This was against the recommen
dation of the committee.
Playgrounds Favored
The special committee recom
mended that the item for the
city's half of public playground
employes be reduced from $13,
933 to $10,000, but this was vot
ed down by the other members.
In the argument over police
and firemen's salaries Alderman
Gille said adoption of the budget
estimates as advocated by the
mayor was "serious discrimina
tion against the fire depart
ment." "It is very unjust," said J. W.
Simeral, special committeeman.
Mayor Elfstrom and Sephus
Starr said the budget only at
tempted to put them on the same
level. Fred Paului sided with
the firemen and special commit
teemen. Fire Chief Roble and Captain
Ellsworth Smith both took the
floor for the firemen.
Before acting on any budget
items the general committee ap
proved a list of recommenda
tions of the special committee de
signed to reform the budget
making process.
May Change Procedure
One of these was that a spe
cial committee of two aldermen
ana me city manager be ap
pointed by the mayor to formu
late a more comprehensive me
thod of future budget prepara
tion.
Another recommendation, ap
proved by the general committee
and acted on by the city coun
cil, wipes out the "cost of liv
ing" estimates which for several
years have entered into water
department salaries. These, set
up by the department of com
merce, are revised every three
months. The special comr.iittee
declared they throw salaries out
of adjustment and cause hard
feeling. The city manager was
directed to prepare a salary
schedule tor the department
without them.
: Another recommendation ap
proved was "that there be no
transfer of funds from one ac
count to another; no expendi
tures made without proper au
thorization, and no withdrawals
from the emergency fund with
out the full consideration and
approval ot the council; that
future budgets should be classi
fied into three categories; name
ly, salaries and wages, general
operating and maintenance ex
pense, and capital outlay; that
no deviation from these categor
ies should be allowed."
Bridge Sinks Reports to the
county court states that a small
bridge on county road 828 a half
mile south of Liberty, has sunk
down and needs repair or re
placement
