NO BACK PAY FOR E. CHICAGO OFFICIALS

City official of East Chicago enjoyed Just two daya of Jubilation over the council action allowing them back pav from the first of May, amounting in most caties to over S300 and in the case of the city engineer to J500, but l'this morning the bubble was -bursted when the City Controller announced tha.t there will be no back pay. The increase of salaries "authorised by the city council-, last Friday night: will be effective only from tae time toe ordinance was adopted. The law passed by the special session of legislature provided that an increase In salary might be given to city officials of cities which had changed classification and that the increase might be Tna.de at tfte time of changing classification. Taking advantage of the new law the cItycouncll proceeded to grant increases of salary effective when East Chicago became a city of the second class, in other words on May 1st. This would allow the lucky ones four months back pay. Now word has been received that ths state board of accounts whl not permit payment of the ' increased salaries except from the date of the final adoption of the ordinance authorizing snich increase. And the city officials are not the only ones w"ho hav a grouch. There are several wlvea of City officials who would-like to give the state board of accounts a piece of their mind. -
