Draws Responses

Renewed evidences OF support for
the fee bill introduced by Rep
resentative Milton West to limit
salaries OF county officials OF Cam
eron and Hidalgo cour-ties TO a
maximum OF $4,000 were being
seen today IN Cameron county

publication by Cameron county
officials.
Several kilograms OF support for
the measure were sent to West
Thursday and additional measures
were prepared for transmission
Friday.
Judge Oscar Dancy. who first
proposed a bill limiting the salar-
les OF those concerned to $500

the West measure. s. ing that the
preventative was on the ground
IN Austin and was undoubtedly in
a better position to determine what
sort OF a measure could be passed.
