Wisconsin centennial expo pays extra salary to manager
Statutory limits prevent a $10 000 bonus for E Ammon, manager of the Wisconsin centennial exposition. To offset the loss the board of agriculture will pay Ammon an added salary of 350 per month for nine and a half months totaling 3267 50. The board notes the bonus was meant for a three year period and the pay adjustment applies to the remainder of 1948. Ira Inman Beloit observes Ammon’s work in expo preparations.
