INDIANA OFFICIALS TO ASK LEGISLATURE

i wii wni.ni 1 1 iinivu (By Associated. Press) INDIANAPOLIS. Dec. 24. County officials throughout Indiana are awaiting the meeting of the legislature next month with plans calling for salary Increases. Their drive for such legislation may provoke one of the big problems that the legislators will have

to solve, along with other proposed legislation that will call for probably the greatest budget of expenditures ever laid before the assembly. Recent price declines and increased unemployment are believed by some senators and representatives to injure the case of the county officers. Cite New Laws as Basis. New laws that impose more duties upon the county officials, in turn reo.uiring more clerical help, are cited by the county officials as an argument for their salary increases as well as the general complaint of high living costs. vSix months ago the county ofiicials were anxious to push their legislation through the legislature during tha special session and indications v. ere then favorable that some would benefit if the law changes were put up to the assembly. However, the relief bills did not get under way and since then the county officials have been perfecting their plans, including the quest for pledges for their measures. None of the officials have as yet announced their demands, but it is ex-

pected that all will favor flat salaries and the total discard of any fees. Auditors, . urging their claim, say they have not had an adjustment of salary for twenty-five years, and that the new ta law had added greatly to their duties during the last two years. Some it is known were kept from resigning office within the last year by the plea of their political party organizations. Judges Ask Increase. Supreme and appellate court judges will probably seek an increase from $6,000 to $7,500, while the circuit judges throughout the state are expected to ask for increases to $3,000

from $3,500. County clerks, recorders, surveyors, coroners, commissioners, truant and

probation officers and the township f

trustees, the legislators believe, will all come before the assembly with pleas for more pay. The township trustees are expected to advocate passage of a bill classifying their offices according to population, number of school Jeachers and length of improved highways. Factors based on these itenu would then determine the salary. To grant all of the requests that the county officials are expected to make would add millions of dollars to the annual public expenditures in the s tate, according to the members of the legislature, but they feel that the prob-

lem of the dealing with the proposed

increases will cme up with the opening of the session, Jan. C.
