WHY NOT PARK EMPLOYEES

Editor The Star note in the
current issue OF The Star an item
entitled Wage Bill Passed" re.
ferring TO the raise in salaries OF
city employees. but excepting those
employed in the library and park
departments. also note that the
increases were made on the ground
that n living wage was not received.
! would like to ask In this conncc-
ton where the park and library EN-.
ployes buy their supplies? DO you
suppose they have depot where
they secure the necessities of life
for less than the other employees of
the city? Or you suppose they do
not require as much TO eat and
wear as the others?
No doubt If committee OF said
employees visited the mayor or coun.
ell in regard to the matter, they
would be told that the respective
boards bvere responsible, and If
they were TO visit the boards. they
In turn would say. How can we
do anything about raising salaries
when the tax levy is fixed?"

partments are not under civil ser.

reason that they do not get a
