County employees are to have a
five day work week beginning May
l, it was decided on Tuesday after
the measure was once voted down
and later revived.
Last week Commissioner w. |.
Sauter, of Bethesda, was heard to
describe the meeting of the Board
of County Commissioners as "nut-
sier and nutsier." This week there
was an added feeling of tenseness
/ and explosiveness that came near
the surface at times. President
Johns and "Ace" Esworthy several
times voted with Charles Jamison,
the lone Democrat. 1t looked like
the old familiar cup county" YER
sus "down county," SO evident in
some civic organizations.
The first clash came over the
new work week. Mr.. Sauter was
emphatically unwilling to vote for
five day week unless it provided
40 hours of work, $3.50 to daily
with only half an hour for lunch.
The board then voted to stay on
the present schedule. Immediately
after lunch, before Mr.. Sauter had
returned, the resolution introduced
in the morning by county super
visor, l. G. McNayr, was brought
out and with only Mr.. Youngblood
voting against it, was carried.
1t provides that beginning May
1 the work day will start at $3.50
A. M. and end at 1870 P. M. with
one hour for lunch each day ex-
cept Friday, when the lunch pc
riod will be one-half hour. With
the exception of offices and depart
ments which feel it necessary to
maintain skeleton forces for Sat
urday morning work, plus the po-
lice and road maintenance crews,
all other employees will no longer
report for work on Saturday morn
ings. The 361s hour week will re-
main unchanged.
Mr.. Esworthy evidently failed
to vote with Johns and Jamison on
a measure suggested by Mr.. Johns
which would have abolished the
posts of commissioner in charge of
the police department, held by Mr..
Sauter, at $1,000 year, and COM
missioner in charge of the aims
house held by himself, (Johns), at
$500. The suggestion came as a
bombshell when introduced just be-
fore adjournment for lunch, Mr..
Sauter commenting only that there
was still much work to be done in
the. police department.
Upon Mr.. Sauter's return after
lunch the question again came up
and he asked that it be taken up
in executive session. After a two
hour session the executive session
came to an end and the announce
ment made was that the question
had not been decided. During the
private session Douglas Bradshaw,
