UNDERPAID PUBLIC
SERVANTS

One o. the most glazing examples
Of undcrpaid officials, considering
ability, is that OF the members of our
Supreme Court. Vermont, with but
two exceptions, pays less to its SD
preme Court Judges than any of the
Other states to the Union.
If this Court were mediocre in
character, there might be the excuse
that its members received all they
earned, although in that event good
business would dictate a change both
as to the incumbents and salaries, for
the better; but as a matter of fact
the Supreme Court of Vermont is
considered one Of the strong courts
of the country. whose decisions are
cited as authority with no little flc-
Quency, and all Nermonters entertain
highly justifable pride in the abili-
ty and integrity Of the present men,
bers of the Supreme Court. That it
is highly essential to the welfare of
the people of this state that men of
this high character should continue to
occupy these Offices, TO one will dis
pute.
Not only does Vermont pay less
to its Supreme Court judges than
any other state except Arkansas and
South Dakota, where constitutional
limitations prevent an increase, but
compared with the other New Eng
land States, we pay the least. Thus,

We pay 500 less per Judge each year
than in either New Hampshire o.
Maine, and it is understood that in
beth of these states increases will be
proposed at the next Legislature
$1,000 less per Judge than Rhode IS
land; $4,000 less to each judge than
Connecticut; and $4,000 less than
Massachusetts, Thus the judges of
that Court, whose decisions rank no
higher than those of our own court,
receive three times as much salary
and the Chief Justice $500 additional.
II any day laboler were paid today
the same salary he received in 1908,
he would consider himself grossly UNI
derpaid and fully justified in ,becom-
ing a Bolshevic, yet the Justices of
our Supreme Court, who in 1908 were
thought worthy to receive $4,000 each
per annum, receive the same conpen-
sation today as then. In the mean
time living costs have doubled, so
that as a reward for their faithful ser
vice, these men. anyone of whom in
private practice coald double his
present income, by reason OF the
purchasing power of a dollar today
as compared with 1908 have in effect
had their income cut in two.
Would it not be the part Of wisdom
and only simple Justice, that the next
Legislature Of Vermont should deal
as fairly with the men who head its
judicial system, as with the men who
for instance, have helped to con-
struct their roads? Vermont does not
want the unenviable reputation of be-
ing one of the most niggardly states
in the union in compcnsating its
Supreme Court. These men by their
position cannot engage in any phi
waite business; their entire earninos
are represented by their salary. Why
not have it somewhat nearer com
mensulate with their worth? We be-
lieve the members of the Legislature
from this county will want to do their
part in giving a reasona Bile increase
to men, who, as compared with men
occupying similar positions n other
states, are seemingly underpaid.
