COUNCIL SUPPORTS PAONESSA ON VETO Mayor Promises Danberg $300 Salary Increase Within Month | | With the understanding that Clerk of Courts Emil J. Danberg will re- celve a $500 salary ralse within a month after the opening of the year, the common council at a special meeting last night, sustained the mayor's voto to such an inecrease, ef- feetive April 1 The council adopted regulating a two-platoon in the fire department, and made provision for new contracts with Thomas Linder assessment expert M r Paonessa submitted his veto mesgage, Which follows, after the city clerk had called the roll showing 25 members pr “To the Members of the Common Council “'Gentlemen I am returning with-| out my approval a resolution passed | at the regular meeting in I"ebruary of the common council as to an increase in the salary of $500 of the clerk of the city and police courts, “My reason for vetoing this bill is that this increase in salary is not pro- vided for in the appropriations for| the coming year. The vote to in-| crease was made on the same evening that the city budget was approved by the common council and this budget did not take care of this increase. In making the appropriations and fixing | the tax rate the needs of the city| were examined very carefully and with most excellent judgment by the board of finance and taxation, so that their recommendations were adopted by the common council and by the city meeting without a dissenting vote. Should this salary increase be allowed | to be made, it will constitute a pre- | cedent for other departments of our city government to spend money in excess of their appropriations. “In my investigation to determine my course in this matter, I have be- come convinced that the office of clerk of courts is underpatd and that| the proposed increase is just and de-| serving. | fiscal ordinances For that reason I shall be| d to look into this matter and in| {he near future expect to be able to} recommend to the council that the desired increase in salary be made for the coming year without exceeding| the appropriations for salaries. | “Respectfully submitted, “A. M. PAONESSA, “Mayor.” Veto Unanimously Sustained, Alderman F. L. Conlon moved that the veto be sustained. Councilman D. ‘.
