Speed last week to give legislative" ap proval to salary increases granted certain county officials by the Board of County Com missions last JulywLi Trie nui, hu l izm, wouia amend Chapter 91H of the Ses sion Laws of 1961 relating to the salaries of certain officials of Franklin County and also contains a provision authoriz ing the Board' of County Com missioners to Increase or de crease the salaries of all but those In the Register of Deeds office from time to time by not more than 5 per cent. The bill specifically rewrites sections one through six of Chapter 918 to provide for the following salaries, all of which were effected by the County Commissioners In July 1962: Clerk of Court, from $5,700 to $5,900; Asst. CSC, from $3,300 to $3,465; Deputy CSC, from $2,800 to $3 400; Sheriff, from $5,050 to $5,300; Chief Deputy, from $3,740 to $3,927; Regular Deputy, from $3,42$' to $3,597. Recorder's Court Ju^gt^from $3,380 to $3, 549; StjMtfltor, from $2,950 to $3^)9^!50; Coroner, from $70OJtf$735; Rfcfcii>ier of Deed^ffom $5,050 to $5,300; Ass*: Register of Deeds, from ?$5^000 to $3,150; and Deputy Register of Deeds, from $2,700 to $2, 835. Just why Speed's bill would grant the County Commission ers authority to make 5 per cent adjustments In the pay of all employees and officials ex cept those In the Register of Deeds office drew no com ment from Officials at the Court House here today, but the very specific omission, of 'Register of Dfeeds personnel has all ap pearances of a deliberate slap at the department and there was some speculation as to the bill's chance of passage In It's pre sent form when It reaches the senate side of the assembly. The average club, or organi zation, will grab almost any excuse for a supper. Then there afe those who are worried about the possibility of being bitten by snakes.
