Babcock reviews firemen pay mandate question in Las Vegas

District Judge Howard W. Babcock took under advisement the City of Las Vegas case over a 144 dollar monthly fireman raise. He warned a written decision could come next week, with possible appeals to the Nevada Supreme Court. The case hinges on whether the initiative ordinance is a valid mandate and who qualifies as a firefighter, while city costs if approved could reach about 2.3 million dollars through 1969-70.
