Sixty thousand dollars was added to the annual payroll of the city of Ham. irond laat niffht when th city council passed the ordinance raising: wagra anl salaries of all city employes from the n-.aj.or down. At the last msetlns; of the council an ordinance was introduced by Alderman Rellly to Incrrue the salaries of the members of the police department. Thin met with strenuous opposition which promised to subside if the ordinance was amended to include all city employes. The matter was then referred to the finance committee with instructions to bring In recommendations at the next meeting;. L-it night Alderman Keeier of the finance committee read his .report which covered every city department. The increases for the firemen and policemen alone would mean an additional 540,000 per year, he said. He also added that he could not see where the money was coming from to meet the increase but he was simply obeying Instructions in drafting the report.

I.ater In the evening the report was entered as a correction to the original ordinance which had already passed first reading. Aldermen Hecklemau, Martin.

Have You Two Bank Books? One for

Checking, One for Saving? People who find it advantageous to have a checking account also find it profitable to have a second account, for savings. With a separate savings account, regularly added to, there is a greater incentive for thrift. The money stands there as a second cash reserve should you need it. And being in a savings account, there is more of a disposition to keep it intact. By having two accounts savings and checking persona! banking becomes more efficient.
