Compensation Board Grants Higher Pay for Virginia Officials
The Virginia Compensation Board approved increases in 1947 allowances for revenue commissioners, treasurers, commonwealth attorneys, sheriffs, and city sergeants, totaling about 1.103 million for commissioners and 1.323 million for treasurers, up roughly 8.5 percent from 1946. Salaries and expenses were listed for counties and cities, with figures for Frederick, Augusta, Staunton, Winchester and others, noting substantial year over year rises. Additionally, a Q&A section covers sap substitutes for milk from the Brosimum tree and details of the Strasbourg Cathedral clock and its celestial indicators.
