thirty-first day of October prior
TO the commencement of the
term Of such officers, and the
same shall not be increased or
diminished during the term for
which such officers shall have
been elected or appointed"
Article l6, No. 3, of the State
Constitution G908) provides:
Neither the legislature nor any
municipal authority shall grant
or authorize extra compensation
to any public officer. agent. en-
ployee or contractor after the
service has been rendered or
the cntract entered into. SAL
aries Of public officers, except
circuit judges shall not be in
creased nor shall the salary Of
any public officer be decreased,
after election or appointment"
In addition TO his present car
allowance of $500. Finch asked
$500. making total Of 5000 in
addition to his salary of $500 an
nually. Lumley receives sal
airy of So, with an allowance of
$500 for his car. He asked a
$3.50 car-allowance incr ase. The
commissioners had asked for
the increase in a report handed
to the Road committee of the
Board of Supervisors on June
%. The increase was asked for
a six months period.
