To abide on Vashon's rolling hills,
inhaling its healthy smile,
Who seem to delight, both day

who have no guile,
Sharing with them the pranks,

Regardless Of native or foreign

Who came to our Paradise, Wash

No healthier spot on earth can be

DEEM CONTINUES WAR
 ON WAINWRIGHT RAISE
Will Confer With Mayor, Seeking Veto of
 Resolution

Alderman Cornelius J. Dehm who
 led the movement to bring about a
 reduction in the salary of Park su-
 perintendent Ralph B. Wainwright
 on the ground that 1t was not legally
 granted and contrary to the city's f. nancing policies, will not accept the
 decision Of the common council to allow the matter 10 stand, and plans to discuss 1t with Mayor A. M. Pao- nessa this week.
 The mayors only authority in the salary discussion is the exercise of his veto.
 The Wainwright salary problem has been before the common coun- ell for two months. When Alder man Dehm and Mayor A. M. Pao- nessa learned of s250 increase in the salary at the opening of the tis- cal year, conference was held with Chairman Edward F. Hall of the board of finance and taxation. AS a result, Dehm introduced a resolution in the council asking the ordinance and salary committees to place on the salary list such park department employees as they believe should be on the list. The salary committee was ordered to fix the superinten- dents salary at the figure paid when the budget was made up. This was s250 less than now paid. The three officials concerned in the drive felt the increase should not be allowed since it was not contemplated in the budget for the department, and be- cause It did not come before the { common council at the December
 meeting.
 In answer, park commissioners said the administration item would allow the increase without an orer- draft. The corporation counsel was asked for an opinion and he declar- ! cd the function of the council was Ito either approve or disapprove the park commissions action, but not to set the salary, The ordinance and salary com mittees then recommend ed the increased salary. At the last common council meeting no objec- ton was voiced.
 Charter regulations provide pe- riod of 10 days during which the mayor may consider and If he deems fit, veto a resolution voted by the common council. Seven days have now passed and a search of the town clerks files does not disclose return of the Wainwright resolution approved, although some of the other council actions have gone through the usual procedure.
 If the mayor vetoes the salary, 1t will come before the common coun- ell next week at a special session,
