County Board Perfects
Election Day Machin-
cry At Meeting Last
Night

County commissioners failed
TO take action last night on grant
ing Representative B. c. PapY's
request that the measure calling
fer reduction of salaries for COM
missioners in this county be plac-
ed on the election ballot, accord
ing TO referendum legislation pass
ed by the State Legislature last
Spring.
Papy's bill called for reduction
of monthly salaries for county
commissioners to $500, instead
of SIS as now paid. 1t was neces-
sarv for the commissioners to &C
cept the legislative measure and
order it placed on the ballot. This
action failed following consider
able discussion of the subject.
Commissioners Warren and
MonSalvatge spoke out against
the measure. Mr.. Warren stated
that commissioners earned every
cent of their $500 per month
salary, and Monsalvatge ex-
pressed the belief that the bill
was introduced and influenced by
personal motives.
Representative Papy admitted
he was powerleSs to force the
commissioners approval of the
bill, but declared in defense of his
measure, that in times past
men of superior caliber-equal,
certainly, to ability of present
memberS-had served the county
for S1.00 per year.
Chief action taken at the meet
mig last night consisted of prep
arations for the coming election
on November 5th. Election boards
were named by all commission
ers for publication in The Citizen
and locations of polls was APP
proved. Arrangements for print
ing the ballot were also COM
pleted.
