Town Topics

Last aueek Mayor Lionel
EOa'as took office. His first
act aoas to notify nearly 100
city employees that their
jobs are abolished. HIS second
act DGs to draW up on
ordinance reducing the pay
of nearly all city employees
taking a $72O cut in his oa0n
salary.
With his first tWo acts
Mayor EUans is fulfilling his
pledge of economy to the
taxpayers of Youngstown.
We happen to know that
he 1OiU carry his economy
plan to a successful con-
cllsion and WiU do eDery-
thing to balance the city's
budget.
Much as 1Oe hate to see
salaries and aOages cat, ne
must endorse the action of
Mayor Evans in this respect.
The city employees aDould
not consent to a more than
10 per cent cut four gears
ago. They drev good pay
curing the entire depression
Vhile the taxpayers suffered
10ant and in many Instances
lost their homes, because
they could not pay tares,
interest and installments ON
it.
While thousands of steel
7oorkers (naost of them tar-
payers) aoalked the Streets in,
search OF Uork or shivered in
'front.' OF relief headquarters
caty employees enjoyed their
pay to an even greater ertent
because everything was cheap
and their pay dollars bought
much more than in precious
gears. A 10 per cent pay cut
a0ath steady Work octuallu
meant an increase in the
purchasing power of city
employees salaries.
The result of this policy
was that about $4,5OO, 900
tares and special assessments
due the city vent unpaid
from 1881 to the end OF last
year and the city paying out
more than its income aDas
for could haze been) to-
day on the verge of bank
ruptcy.
EDanS in his canapaiqn
speeches did not sag that he
10iU cut $5OO,0OO from the
city's budget, but he said he
7Oill cat enough to balance
the budget. And he is doing
it. His cuts Dill be a great
deal more than $500, 900
promised by another candi-
date.
OF course the city en-
ployees and especially the
police and tirenaen are greatly
dissatisfied. We don't blame
them. Everybody in this
selfish aOorld takes as much
as he can get.
But let us see If the,
policemen and firemen are
underpaid or not?
The policemen are protected
in their jobs By city service
after the first gear service.
Under the adjusted 1Oage
ordinance they will receiue
$40 a month pay, every
10th day off Uith pay, ta0o
weeks vacation with pay,
sick leave z0ith pay for 60
days, full pay and medical
care If injured in the line of
duty, after 20 gears service

The immediate objective, he pointed
out, Is a common understanding to
implement the Kellogg and Argentine
anti-war pacts by means Of enforce
ment Of joint. or collective, neutral
trade embargoes against all belliger-
ents, without permitting the question
Of the "aggressor" to cause long delays

S. A study of the possibility OF de-

Ambassador Castillo considers It
wholly safe for the United States. Mex

support a Pan-American Court and
Congress of Nations, meeting at regu-

believes the question of membership
in the former might be settled by

an inter-American committee or con-

6. Finally, consideration of ways

American nations through substantial
assistance to accredited students,

interpret American peoples to each

And the Ambassador agreed. fur
thermore, that, in view Of the inpor-

munitions investigation of the United
States Senate. and its reverberations
in South America, it would be singu-

Mexico manufactures, he said,
virtually all of its own rifles and am
munition for its army. 1t permits no
foreign sales or exports of these COM
modities, and it believes in the prin-
ciple of naturalization, and of control
at the source of production. Once es-
tablished," he concluded, this prin-
ciple would effect enormous savings to
