A bill was introduced in the
House Friday by Representative Bris-
tow, Of New York. increasing the
salary Of the president from $50. 900
to S1O0. 900 per year. It is almost q
universal opinion that the salary Of
the president is so meagre in compari-
son with the demands upon his purse
and the salaries paid the chief execu-
tives of other nations that it should
be increased to an amount commen-
surate with the responsibility and
necessity Of his position.
