Our article on the foolish possiâ€" Jility that Recreation might be slashed through the efforts of the Waterloo Council finance commitâ€" tee, has met widespread approval in this city. Few streets in Waterloo are cnrryinf more traffic. Probably none of them take the pounding from trucks that this road does. *While we hate continually harpâ€" ing on the same darn thing, still this road has sat there years enough to have been fixed so it would stay all in one piece. While the "hole plugging" atâ€" tempts are commendable, they are still a lon# way from forming the type of road which should be here. ~ J.H.S. * Many local drivers are of the opinion that it is time the city stopped fooling around and had the Bridgeport road fixed so it would stay that way. = Ald. Gould‘s imperious handâ€" ling of this matter could easily Jead to the resignation of some of the civic employees, a costly venture when it is considered what it costs to train a city hall employee so he is of real worth to the community. Many have called in and ‘even stopped us on the street to tell us to "keep pounding". Frankly we don‘t think we have to. There would be such a holler put up if the Recreation Commission was to be disposed of now, that even the Eskimos would hear it. Ald. Ewald thought that the inâ€" crease shou.d go only to the memâ€" bers of the police on the actual force and should not include the Justice of the Peace, Jean Croth. However it was decided that this ‘would comprise discrimination and the J.P. will be included in the wage boost. If this 12 per cent increase is approved across the board as it has been proposed, then, of course there wil‘ still be skilled help in the city hall receiving less money than they would be if they were out digging ditches. ‘ J.HS. â€" At Monday night‘s meeting of the Estimates Committee, a 12 per cent increase for city hall emâ€" ployees, police and firemen, was passed on. This, of course, is subâ€" ject to approval by council, but as most members were at the meetâ€" ing it is almost a foregone conâ€" clusion that this will pass. The proposal which went to the Estimates Committee on Monday night of this week showed this saving. If it is accepted, the chief will get one extra man instead of three, but he wil be given another cruiser. The chief had pointed out preâ€" viously that the present cruiser is not enough. That it has to be used for out of town business and is not available at times for local calls. ~A discussion between Chiel of Police Moreau and Mayor Roberts resulted in various proposals beâ€" ing advanced and a decision being made which will result in the saying of nearly 6,000 on the poâ€" lice department estimate for 1952. This same finance committee who would not sit and discuss wages with our clerk and engiâ€" neer, were forced to bargain with all other civic employees because they were repsesented by a union. All city hall employees are unâ€" derpaid according to present wage standards. In one case a good emâ€" ployee, doing highly specialized work and holding a college deâ€" gree, is being paid less than an ordinary laborer. Representing all city hall emâ€" ployees was the city clerk and the city engineer. Both of these men have a fine record of accomplishâ€" ments. Both are intelligent. Yet tie committee refused to discuss the wage issue while these men were present. They were banâ€" imhed to their offices while the finâ€" ance commiitee took up an issue wuich could not help being oneâ€" The engineer and the city clerk were told they would be called back to the meeting in about five minutes. An hour and a half laâ€" ter, some member of the commutâ€" tee came to the head of the stairs and whistued for them to come back, only to be told that the meeting had been adjourned. in some cases, éven talk to their en;lplo{ees. While we hold little ‘brief for the present highâ€"handed way most union representatives try to conduct their business, still there arc times when certain froups are almost forced into orming a union so they can get a~proper hearing. \ At a recent meeting of the Finâ€" ance Committee of the Waterloo Counil, the issue of increased wages for City Hall employees was to have ben the main issue for discussion. This committee, with Aid. Gould as chairman, reâ€" peatedly tried to sideâ€"step the wage issue. ._Meost unions have been formed tn the past for the simple reason hat employers have refused in many cases to deal fairly with and Vol. 95, No. 11 Around W aterloo JHS 55 Club Holds Irish Meeting Club glremdoms Mr. and Mrs. Morris Hallman outlined plans for future events.

This decision was brought to Kitchâ€" ener Council Monday night on reâ€" commendation of the housing committee. Ald. Frank Harber, housing committee chairman pointed out that despite the increase the foreâ€" cast for 1952 on the camp operaâ€" tion is still a deficit.

Cost of Living Down .7 Point in February _ Ald. Harry Gould, chajman of the finance committee, pointed out that"if council adopted a 12 per cent increase basis it would also apply to the firemen. | For Men Only o Ald.

Ewald said. _ f â€" It was sugfiested the justice of the peace be granted an increase of $150. _ Neither M;nu( Roberts nor Ald Hauck agreed. _ S l Mayor Roberts felt a few on the City Hall staff should receive conâ€" sideration in salary adjustments over and above the 12 per cent inâ€" crease. it BIGGEST DROP SINCE 1945 Mayor Roberts said the cily could work on a 12 per cent basis with a maximum of $400 and a minimum of $300. It was pointed out the police had asked for salary increases of $400 across the board. The police commission could approve this inâ€" crease but it would nave to work un a budget set out by council. Ald. Aino Hauck felt the poâ€" lice should get an inctrease of 12 per cent the same as the rest of the eity employees. â€" Discuss J.P. Fees There was some discussion as to whether the justice of the peace should be allowed an increase in view of amount received in fees. Mayor Roberts and Ald.

Throughout 1951, the inâ€" dex rose steadily, gaining about 20 points during tire year. Since October, however, it has hovered about the 190â€"192 area, leaving some here to believe that the cost of living index may at least have reached a point of relative stabiliâ€" zation. Lower prices for foods, nylon stockings, men‘s woollen clothing, woollen blankets, furniture and soap, contributed to the reduction. In the food field tprice cuts were noted in eggs, beef, pork, lard and shortening. Agairtst these were price inâ€" creases in butter, cheese, fresh fruits and vegetables. Laundry charges and telephone rates also went up. But on balance the deâ€" creases outweighed the rises, so that the general index shrank. . The union did not agree to the | 12 per cent proposal but another |\ meeting will be held by the two | groups late this week or early next. Representing the union were John Rutherford, Gordon Musselâ€" man, Layton Hallmand and Steve Melnychuk. As of Feb. 1 the Dominion Buâ€" reau of Statistics announced the index stood at 190.8 points, or sevenâ€"tenths of a point lower than on Jan. 1, when it hit a record high of 191.5. The decrease, while certainly not of proportions such as to send housewives out cheerâ€" ing in the streets, was nevertheâ€" less the biggest drop the index has taken in any one month since August, 1945. : Want Overtime Pay The. union requested that all work performed between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. be classed as overtime and paid for at the ‘rate of time and a half, exclusivejof Sundays and holidays which would be classed as double time. It was proposed that semiâ€" skilled equipment operators be given $1.28 an hour. Heretofore there has been no grouping for semiâ€"skilled â€" operators. _ skilled operators would be increased from $1.22 to §$1.37. . The city is offering eight statuâ€" tory holidays. The city has not given in to this request. â€" The wages proposed by the city would boost general labor from $1.02 to $1.11 an hour; semiâ€" skilled from $1.07 to $1.20; skilled labor from $1.12 to $1.26; garage groundsmen from $1.12 to $1.26; ;killed truck drivers from $1.14 to 1.28. The committee plans to install lockers for board of works emâ€" ployees to be used for clothing and equipment. The employees union has asked for a $400 acrossâ€"theâ€"board inâ€" crease. Offer 12% Boost The board of works committee, under the chairmanship of Ald. Frank Bauer, offered a salary increase of 12 per cent. The vriginal offer was 10 per cent.

Highest In 12 Months With the exception of last May and June when the 27th Brigade recruited nearly 10,600 men, the January totals were the highest in the last 12 months.
