DRAFTS BILL TO
RAISE CITY PAY
Healing Is to Introduce
Ordinance at Council
Meeting Monday.

An ordinance providing for a 10
per cent horizontal salary increase
for members of the police, fire,
Gamewell and police radio depart
ments is to be introduced at the
City Council meeting Monday by
Councilman Edward r. Healing,
Republican. The ordinance was
filed late yesterday with City Clerk
Daniel O'Neill.
The ordinance, the third of its
kind sponsored by Mr.. Healing, pro-
vides that the increases become eff
fective Jan. l.. In the first such
ordinance he introduced Mr.. Keal-
ing asked for restoration of the Is
per cent reduction made in 1892. The
second sought the restoration of 10
per cent of the reduction, but was
amended by Mr.. Healing to reduce
the restoration to 715 per cent.
In the present proposal, Mr.. Keal-
ing again is to ask a 10 per cent
restoration. He says this CORE
spends to the increase promised the
city's 600 firemen this week by
Mayor Kern.
eff members of the administration
are sincere in restoring any part of
these pay cuts" Mr.. Healing said
today, "they will vote for this ordi-
nance. For about one and one-half
years have made a sincere effort
to have the members of this admin
istration give consideration to such
an ordinance. I am a Republican
member of the council and for this
reason believe that my efforts have
failed. I sincerely believe that this
ordinance should not be made a
political football by the parties, but
that just and proper consideration
should be given according to the
merits of the ordinance"
The ordinance as prepared by Mr.
Healing would increase the salaries
Of the four department heads as
follows: Police chief, $4560; fire chief
$4560; electrical engineer, Gamewell
department, $3420, and licensed
operators and service men in the
police radio department to 1929.
In promising pay increases to the
firemen, Mayor Kern said he intends
to include other city employees. The
Mayor emphasized that he favored
a salary adjustment plan that would
provide boost for members of both
the police and fire departments
amounting to between 71a and 10
per cent.
The Mayor also said that a sal
airy survey was being conducted in
all departments and that no action
on the proposal will be taken until
the data is compiled.

In order to secure stronger eco

DR.. Cox suggested that the insti-

other nations more favorable tariff
terms.

final settlement of the war debt

Johnson act for bidding loans to

He said that relationships follow
widespread radicalism caused by the
fear and hopelessness of the depres-

"A dictator, to survive, must not

the n1archioneSs, "a, is in hiding
in New York in fear of gang VEN
geance, police said.
She still is cooperating with de-
tectives seeking Sl,296, 900 worth of
securities, stolen from Wall Street
banking houses in robberies that
baffled investigators more than a
year.
Police said her testimony VIII be
most important in the prosecution
of two men held for United States
authorities in Paris and a third
man, David Frank, whose secret ar
rest in New York several days ago
was revealed last night.
Accused of Completely
Frank and the men held in Paris
were accused of completely in a
theft of ST $4,000 worth of bonds
belonging to the Bank of the Man
haitian Co. Because j. Edgar Hoov-
err, chief of the Federal Justice De-
partment's Bureau of Investigation,
linked that crime with another
theft of $5e0,000 in Treasury notes
in 1884, it was assumed that the
marchioness also would testify
against eight men arrested in con-
nection with it.
A Federal agent and New York
detective raced across the Atlantic
today for possession of the Paris
prisoners. Hoover said one of his
men left for Europe yesterday. De-
tective Henry p Oswald sails on the
S. S. Lafayette for Havre this
morning.
The men that both policemen
wished to question, and if possible
bring to America, were Jacob
SchwarZ, Czecholovakian, and
Bernard Klein, Hungarian. Klein
had $4,000 worth of the Bank of
Manhattan Co.'s bonds when ar
rested in Monte Carlo several days
ago.
Marchioness Tells Story
The marchioness told Assistant
District Attorney 0. M. Frankel of
New York County that she estab-
lished contact with some of the sus-
pected men on trips to Europe.
She said she heard of David
Frank, one of the men arrested
here, several months ago through
Anthony De Pasquale, since slain
former restaurant owner.
Later, she said, she met Frank in
New York and he gave her a list
of serial numbers of securities he
wished to sell. She sent the list
to an investment broker, who said
that the securities had been stolen
He notified the district attorney and
the Justice Department.
Struggled to Europe
Authorities believe that De Pas
quale was the messenger who snug
gled the securities to statesmen in
Europe.
Police Commissioner Lewis j.
Valentine revealed that part of the
missing loot had been traced to
California and that Detective Lieut..
Grover G. Brown is on the West
Coast now.

ROOSEVELT is
CRITICISED FOR
BRAIN TRUST
Homer Elliott, Aspirant to
Congress, Talks at
6. 0. P. Meeting.

Whatever the brain trust has
done, Roosevelt has done. 1t is his
brain trust, and he must acknowl-
edge its legitimacy and bear the
responsibility of its parentage."
This charge was made last night
by Homer Elliott, Republican can
dldate for the congressional NOM
lnation from the Twelfth District.
at Republican meeting at wilkins
and Maple-sts.
Roosevelt" he continued, "can
not escape the responsibility for his
acts by saying that the bright-eyed
boys of the brain trust did them.
There Is no use for him to evangel-
lie about the more abundant life
While signing his name to orders,
DEGREES, prcciamations and laws
which by their very nature are
bound to produce more abund-
ant poverty.
laundering Is Charged
"a few broad smiles" Mr.. Elliott
added may cover a few mistakes,
but they can not make up for three
years Of laundering from one in
defensible position to another"
Mr.. Elliott attacked the New
Deal for signing codes to dictate
and control business" for gold con-
f1scation" and negotiating trade
treaties for Cheap corn and hogs"
while paying out good money to
induce our farmers not to produce
them"
Neither Secretary Ickes Nor
Harry Hopkins could have thrown
away millions of dollars trying to
build darn against the tides of the
Atlantic Ocean without Mr.. Roose-
velt's consent" he said.
Comments on Poll
'Mr. Roosevelt not only has gath
cred these socialistic reformers
around him and invested them with
authority, but he has adopted their
acts as his own. Secretary Wallace
could not have paid out to three
sugar corporations more than q mil
lion dollars each, for not producing
sugar, without full approval of Mr..
Roosevelt" Mr.. Elliott declared.
Mr.. Elliott commented on the
Literary Digest polls and pointed
out how some adherents of the
Roosevelt Administration, while
conceding that the polls had shown
the President as having fallen in
disfavor," claimed that he would
receive a large personal support in
the ensuing campaign and should
be reelected.
Such a view does no credit to
the good sense of the political in
tegrity of the American people. If
they are opposed to the record
made by an Administration, why on
earth should they support the head
of that Administrations" he asked.
