Never Sharpened New Britain Typewriter Exchange, 72 West Main Street ! heava ANNUAL CRABFEST ONIN GITY HALL: Salary Hearings Give Rise to Per- tinent and Impertinent Gomment is having its annual up- over the proposed salary re- adjustments. Naturally every depart- ment feels that it is entitled to sub- stantial recognition, and even more wturally every employe is positive that his or her servi have becomec s0 valuable to the that the crease sought is no ore than I"ollowing the initial hearing of H\n committee last even topic of discussion heard in : corridors and in the various offi- hall today has been on The individuals and de- partments already given hearings are €ither annoyed at some of the ques- tions asked, or incensed at what th consider reflections on their ability, while every one is decidedly curious and impatient to learn what action the salary committee wiil take. Those who have not been accorded City hall | hearings as yet are preparing their lit- , their specific cases. | the { hibition of inter | that is bound to appear eve i i i especially characteristic of the pr | the worlk | clty tle appeals and at the same time man- ifesting no little concern as to what attitude the committee will adopt in And then, too. re is cropping up that annual ex- partmental jealousy Janua, when these matters are discussed. Employes of the ——— depattment are openly scornful of the arguments raised by the members of the ————— department in their request for raises. Their arguments are ripped to shreds and the work done by the other de- partment is decidedly belittled in this ‘office-jury” deliberation. At the same time, the weak spots in the ad- | jacent office arguments are held up for ridicule, while their own pleas are being strengthened. This is not char- acteristic ‘of any one department, but soes straight through the entire city building. Neither is this anything nt year or the present staff of employes. It was ever thus. Also, once more there springs forth the ever present antipathy of city em- ployes for the city council. Again the argument is advanced that city em- ployes should not be asked to go be- fore a committee of the common council to seek salary adjustments. City employes feel that they should be called before the board of finance or taxation or some special commis- sion made up of a different personnel than is found in the council body. The contention of the wobkers is that the members of the common council are not as well informed on city af- fairs and on the work of the dif- ferent departments as they should be, and because of this cannot fairly as could some other Likewise they contend that members of the city council, because of the lim- ! itations of their everyday occupations, are not as well informed on cor- responding conditions and actions in other cities and, therefore, cannot look at the matter in a fair way. An- other thing that causes a feeling of resentment among the city employes are the sometimes caustic remarks made by members of the salary com- mittee in commenting upon the var- ious departments and their efficiency. Today’s chief grievance was aimed at Alderman Cornelius J. Dehm, who is credited with having made the unsup- ported statement that the health de- partment inspectors are not onto their johs. This unsupported statement imme- diately raised a protest by Chairman M. H. Camp who demanded proof of the allegation, but the alderman is said to have hidden behind his posi- tion as a board member and declined to submit any evidence at that time. City workers today expressed the opinion that if the salary committee merabers have any fault to find with done, or have any com- plaints to register they should make them and give the accused an oppor- tunity to respond and either refute the charge, or stand convicted. In- tense indignation is everywhere in hall expressed at the attitude of the first ward alderman who made the charge that certain city employes | were not onto their jobs, yet goes no further. One more thing that has caused some adverse comment is the stereo- typed question regarding almost every clerk: ‘“‘How many hours a day does he, or she, put in on the job?" These same clerks brand this question as ultra-foolish since the common coun- cil, 'of whi the sal; committee is but a unit, has long since stipulated by ordinance just what hours the hall work. ngs are to More feelings are to be bly, and monr heard from all sides. the end is not yet. If the past can be any criterion of the present, the adjustments as finally made by lary committee will not satisfy the council or the individuals. The council will argue and wrangle. Changes will be suggested, possibly made. And in the end, discord among the city employes who are pleased, and those who are not pleased, will run npant until some other thing comes along to claim their at- tention. Then all will e quiet and serene unti] another year, when his- tory will once more repeat itself, be given. nurt, possi- complaints arve to be And even then ‘ Expensive Celebration ! known establishments, | $7 a1 tions To Be Held in New York | New York, Dec. 30.—New celebratars in this cit: as high as $15 for a place at a hotel restaurant table at several of the best it was learned One well known hotel, how- announced it would charge only The demand for reserva- was never greater, hotel man- gers declared.
