Commissioner Sees New Possibility Of Salary Increase
County Commissioner Edward DeChant said after Ohio Supreme Court ruling that a new salary schedule may yet raise his pay by about $100 a month. He noted a potential legal path after a mandamus suit against the county auditor, with a plan to seek equal pay for all commissioners under a statute mandating like compensation for like services. DeChant began his four year term January 1, 1939, and cited a November ruling affecting elective officials’ pay mid term. Commissioner John E. Davidson joined in the action.
