NO BAY RAISES
FOR CITY. HEADS
TILL JAN. 1917
House Committee Praises the
Mayors Stand Against In
creases During Term

Mayor Lane wss lauded in the house
today for his stand on Elijah Craw.
ford's bill to raise the salaries of city
officials. The report of the municipal
committee. submitted today, shows q
heavy slashing OF Crawfordps proposed
increases.
The committee recommended that
the mayors salsry be increased to
$500. q year. the raise not to take
effect until January 1. 1917, as re-
quested by Lane. The supervisors
win get an increase of from 5000 TO
$500 gyear and the county clerk will
get $4,000 q year, none of the Increases
to take effect until January /, 1917.
The committees report was adopted.
Part uf the report is as follows:
After the reference, of this bill, q
communication from the mayor of the
said city and county to the introducer
of the bill was fled with your com
mittee, wherein a request was made
by the mayor that, in case an Increase
be made in his salary, such Increase
to take effect only after the expira-
tion Of the term for which he was
elected; which communication Is here
to attached and made part OF this
report.
Your committee have arrived at
the following conclusions:
That the stand taken by the mayor
is q laudable one, and should be con.
CURED in by all of the other elective
officers. Your committee believes that
the salaries of the officers of the gov.
ernmeflt should neither be increased
nor decreased during the term for
which they were elected or appointed.
.That the salary of the chief execu-
tive Of the city and county of Homo
lul0 should, at least be equal to that
OF the highest paid department head
of the said city and county, and there
fore recommend that the salary of the
mayor of Honolulu be increased TO
$500 a year 50 as to be equal 10
that of the city and county attorney,
who is the highest paid official at
present.
I'VE believe that the present sal
aries of the members Of the board Of
are not commensurate
with the amount of work Involved,
and recommend an increase to $500 a
year.
sThat the salary of the clerk be
increased to $4,000 year. so as to be
equal with that of the auditor and
that of the treasurer
That the salaries of the deputy
