CONGRESSIONAL PAY HIKE

The best comment we have yet the recent
proposal of commission to raise senatorial and
gressional salaries by eghtyfive cent is the
suggestion that those lawmakers who feel that they need
more money resign from the Senate or House and go
into business their There compulsion keep
ing any In the House or Senate, and if members
of either body wish to resign their Offices they free
to do so at all times.
We do not attempt to treat this matter lightly but
We do believe that some of the lawmakers would find.
If they resigned and went into business for themselves
that making something $4,000 year is not as
easy they might assume.
The sad part of the situation is that like other ed
tors have pointed out, majority of the Senators and
Congressman are usually concerned with getting
reelected than they are in doing good job for their
country These public servants not entitled to an
eightyfive per cent pay increase at this time, and
suspect they will not vote themselves Mch pay hike
