SEAP T0BEGIEN BY COOK COUNTY + Protests to Plan for Paying Employes Are Made by Stores and Bankers. Br the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, February 17.—The county ‘went ahead today with its plans to pay ©ff some 4,000 employes with serip. Protests to this plan poured in from heads of department stores, Chicago and Cook County bankers and Silas H. Strawn, head of the citizens’ relief com- mittee. Their contention is that the issuance of scrip would irreparably damage Chi- €ago's municipal credit. “This is our pay roll,” replied Harry Newby, chairman of the county board finance committee. “It is all we can do under the law. If the employes won't take the scrip, we can't force them to, but we will go ahead with the issue.” Action of the County Board followed | an ultimatum issued a week ago 4o the Strawn committee that unless financial aid was forthcoming immediately, scrip ‘would be issued. Even if employes accepted the scrip, | their rent problems remained. With | many real estate agents saying they | would be guided by the actions of the bankers’ associations, a meeting has been called of the Chicago Real Estate Board to discuss accepting the serip in payment for rent. James Simpson, president of Marshall Field & Co., said the “merchants should not be called upon to usurp the func- tion of bankers. If the county carries out its intention to issue scrip,” he said, “such action would positively destroy for many years the credit of the city.” The pay roll calls for $350,000 worth of scrip, in payment of sdlaries of the last half of December. In the city government the financial wrangle was in a state of quiescence. The Chicago Federation of Labor has demanded that Gov. Louis L. Emmer- son call a special session of the Legis- lature to remedy Chicago’s and Cook County's tax problems. U. S. EMPLOYES TO HEAR _ LONDON RADIO PROGRAMi [ English Comedian to Headline| C. B. S.
