Gardner Started
Cutting Own Pay
Six Months Back
Governor 'Practising IVhat He
Preaches In Saving State’s
Money.
Raleigh, Jan. 18—Governor O
Max Gardner has been practising
what he preached in maintaining
that every state employee, elected
or otherwise, should take a reduc
tion in salary. Since July 1, 1931,
when the 10 per cent salary cut
went into effect for all state em
ployees except elected officers, Gov
ernor Gardner has each month been
turning back 10 per cent of his
salary check into the state treas
ury.
Governor Gardner rather reluct
antly admitted this Saturday, in ac
cordance wfth rumors to this effect
that have been current for several
days He said he had not made anv
announcement of his action and
had not intended to, but that the
criticism that has been leveled at
him by state employees and others
for not making any cut in his own
salary, together with the recent an
nouncement by Governor Pollard or
Virginia that he was cutting his
salary 10 per cent, had induced him
to make it public. Since the salary
of the governor is fixed in the con
stitution, the state auditor is re
quired to draw the warrants for
the entire amount fixed by law—
$6,500 a year salary, with $600 for
traveling expenses—making a total
of $7,100 a year. This makes the
governor s monthly salary check
amount to $591.66. State Treasurer
John P. Sledman today said the
records in the treasurer s office show
that the governor has been turning
back $59.16 or 10 per cent of hi'
monthly pay check each month.
So far as can be learned, Gover
nor Gardner is the only elected
state officer whose salary is fixed
by law, who has voluntarily reduc
ed his own salary. The late Cap
tain Nathan O’Berry, former state
treasurer, turned back 10 percent of
his *4,500 salary as treasurer, as did
Governor Gardner. Treasurer Sted
man, who succeeded Captain O’Ber
ry, has not yet indicated whether
he would folow his predecessor’'
example. But since Stedman gave
up a job paying him approximately
$9,000 a year to accept the post of
state treasurer at a salary of only
*4,500 a year, it is not thought like
ly he will voluntarily reduce the
salary any further. It is also a
known fact that Governor Gardner
does’ not have any criticism what
ever for the other constitutional
officers whose salaries were not re
duced by the legislature for not re
ducing them voluntarily, since he
feels that in many cases the salaries
fiaed in the constitution or by law
are insufficient, even in times like
these.

New York. Jan. 18.—The political

briskly across the stage In the pro

Twenty-tour hours of increased
activity that opened almost fimul

President Hoover’s campaign for
Republican xt-nomination was un

was cheered again by crowds in
Boston, where at the “victory din

his brown derby away. The Roose
velt bound had been formallv
launched by the Democrats of
North Dakota, and his formal an
nouncement was momentarily ex
pected.
Neither the former nor the pres- j
ent governor of Netf York has:
made any statement.
Even the closest friends of Smith
say they do not know where he
stands, but they believe develop

efforts of his supporters to have
him become a candidate.

Friends of Governor Roosevelt
said he had as yet received no for

Twenty-fine hundred members of
the party attending the “victory

him an enthusiastic reception as
the band played "Anchors A weigh”
as he arose to speak. Another large

cost of street lighting under city
ownership and under S P U own

Mayor McMurry says the facts as

to the tax payers and with-hold
action until the public has an op

It will be recalled that the S. P

Remarkable Increase.
The 1931 wheat crop In Cleve

was 246 percent larger than the

creas'd over 1930 by 38 percent, the
