New County Panels Propose Crime Commission and Pay Scales

It sets county commissioner salaries by class, outlines increases for sheriffs clerks and prosecutors, and includes a Monday amendment to cut many top salaries. In Monongalia County local figures list current pay for officials amid the proposed changes.

District reapportionment moves stalled by House vote
Gov Arch Moore vetoed a districting bill and a federal court nullified a House reapportionment. The court gave time to act, delaying another reapportionment until 1973. Leaders seek ratification of a constitutional amendment to ease the task, but the House tabled a single member district based measure 49 to 43. The Senate Judiciary version focuses on removing obstacles to equal representation.
