Mayor seeks $10,000 top salaries for city heads in 1952
Mayor Corcoran urged a $10,000 annual pay level for top city department heads in 1952 and an across the board raise for all city employees. He said many executives earn grossly unequal salaries and cited the public works, finance, parks commissioners and the corporation counsel as examples. He proposed a $200 minimum for general employees with potential increases depending on council decisions and hotel tax, while resisting extra boosts for fire and police chiefs beyond the general raise.

Fete Near Disaster for Reds West Thinks
Western observers label the Communist peace festival a near disaster for communism. The event closed after a two week span with about 2,000,000 youths involved, many visiting East Berlin en route to the United States or Britain behind the Iron Curtain. Estimates say half a million blue-shirted youths pledged allegiance to Stalin, while observers from Schenectady report no compelling evidence of broader vice or gambling.
