GET BILL CUTTING LEGISLATIVE WAGES Employees Sharply Reduced In ‘ Measure To Be Re ported Next Week •)■} I>nliy Uinpntrii Bureau, In tin* Sir Walter Hotel.- BY J. C. BASKERVILL. Raleigh, Jan. 14—The General As sembly will receive from committee next week <a substitute bill to cut the salaries of its employees, whose ranks have been depleted by more than fifty percent since the 1931 session. The new bill will not recommend a hori zontial salary cut of 15 percent, al though it will result in about a 15 percent saving to the State. { Members of the joint salaries and fe’ss committee, in studying two sep arate measures submitted to them for £<fnsiderait!ion by a (Sub-committee, chose a bill stipulating the amount of the cut of each class of legislative employe rather than a bill cutting every one 15 percent. Both bills set a uniform mileage rate of five cents a mile. Under the 1931 law,- moist classes of employes were given ten cents a mile. The new bill, as adopted by the joint committee, would slice the pay of the chief clerks from $7 a day to $6, and the pay of committee clerks from $5 to $4. Chief pages and other employes now getting $4 were cut to $3. The pay of the pages who get $2.50 a day, was not changed. The pay of first class laborers (white men) was cut 4rom $3.50 to $3, and the pay {Continued on Page Hires.), sylvania and Maryland temperatures were well above freezing, but clouds obscured the sun.

BV J. C. HASH l<:it VIM. Raleigh, Jan. 14.—The drive for economy and salary slashirig that opened with such a blare of trumpets ten days ago when the General As sembly first convened seems to be losing momentum. So far every per son whose salary it was proposed to cot is still getting the same amount and *at ptresent * the. bnly bill that seems imminent of enactment is the one being prepared by the joint House and Senate committees on salary and fees to reduce the salaries of legis lative employes an average of about $1 a day. This bill, if enacted, pro bably will not save the State more than $2,500 for the entire legislative session, which amount will not go far towards making up the present governmental operating deficit of ibout $5,000,000 a year. The more important economy bills . ntroduced so far and their status at present, are as follows: 1. The bill to reduce the salaries of all elected State officials, intro duced the first day of the legislature ijy Representatives Johnson, of Chat ham, Lumpkin, of Franklin, and Flannagan, of Pitt. The bill passed the House the first day, was passed by th-i Senate the second day but tailed to be ratified by noon, Jan uary f, so that it never became ef fective. 2. 'the bill by Representative New man, of ew Hanover, to reduce the salaries of members of the General Assembly 20 per centN, or from $lO a day to $8 a day. This bill is stiii in the House Salary and Fees Com mittee with indications that it will remain there indefinitely.

Raleigh, Jan. 14 —Despite the num ber of bills being introduced in the General Assembly to reduce the cost of automobile licenses, it is a foregone conclusion that the finance commit tees will look with disfavor upon such legislation, since all of the bills of this character submitted to date would create an enormous hole in the State’s revenue frfom this source of tax.
