Election Boards To Get More Pay In the Country?
Poughkeepsie May 22 The poor hardworking poll clerks and inspectors in country districts will receive higher pay. Frank L Gardner proposed a bill allowing towns to pay inspectors and clerks up to ten dollars a day. Albany legislators and Dutchess officials discussed the move, but the Legislature passed the buck to towns to decide pay. Machines may keep pay at five to six dollars when counting is not required. Where counting occurs, pay could rise but not exceed ten dollars daily.
