(AP Photo) Report From Springfield By STAN KOVKN 1 SPRINGFIELD, III. num- hcr of people who depend on the slate Legislature and Gov. Strat- Iton to set their salaries have been hitting their bosses for a raise this session.

The latest count shows about 50 different bills introduced covering jobs ranging from the secretary of the Illinois Racing Board to shorthand reporters in the state's courts. A few have won approval but the vast majority are still somewhere in House or Senate or lying on the governor's desk. Even the lawmakers have caught the pay hike fever. A bill to raise to $6,000 a year the salaries of senators and representatives seems certain to win their approval, bringing them an additional $1,000 a year. Already okayed are boosts for village trustees and presidents, downstate aldermen, and mayors and commissioners in commission cities.

Village presidents won a 25 per cent hike, trustees an extra $5 a meeting, and aldermen in cities under 350,000 a raise from $15 to Two Suits Filed Here As Result Of Collisions Hospital Notes John Holland Of Wayne City Dies Yesterday John Marshall Holland, of Wayne City, died at 3:00 p. m.

FIGNOLE NEW HAITI PRESIDENT (Continued from one) than billion dollars from appropriation bills tills year, exclusive of the defense measure. But the Senate so far has held itself within the House totals on those bills it has handled. Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas said he does not consider Eisenhower's defense request as "sacred and untouchable." He did not say how much he favors for defense but commented that "no budget recommendation is sacred. Congress must still apply its judgment as to the size of the recommendations." Deputy Secretary of Defense Robert A.

Quarles said even the $1,300,000,000 of House committee cuts accepted by the Pentagon will "create problems in future by the Legislature and governor. The governor's code department directors would be boosted from the present $12,000 to $15,000 a year under a measure recently, introduced.

(Mary Jane Studio Photo) Richview Road Accident Sends 3 To Hospital Say U.S. Scored Mideast Victory WASHINGTON m- Ambassador James P. Richards told Congress today this country's Middle East policy hns scored "notable success." But he said President Eisenhower needs continuing authority to "act quickly" against any Communist subversion in the area. Richards, who is Eisenhower's special ambassador to the Middle East, said America's promise to resist of the Southern Military District, was named to Cantave's post. Contave and Haiti's police chief, Col.

Pierre Armand, who had threatened civil war in a bid to take over the army command, both stood at Fignole's side as he took the oath. About 10,000 workers and peasants, massed around the presidential pnlarp, went wild with joy when the inauguration took place. Some rolled in the streets. Others; fired shots in the nir. Vigilantes armed with clubs and stones still ranged the streets, however, halting automobiles in search of arms.

About 200 Americans trapped in town by the latest crisis sought vainly to get out of Haiti. All airline service to and from the re public was still shut down. It was Impossible to establish success. County and probate judges would rate an extra $1,800 to $3,800 annually under one nl, and city judges an additional $875 on up under terms of another.

any Red attack brought vast relief to countries ust how mnnv wore klllc or that Adenauer and Dulles Start Formal Talks (Continued from page one) jured over the weekend, when mobs ranged the streets storming the homes of presidential candi dates and hurling rocks at passers-by. After taking the oath, Fignole issued proclamation promising quick "free and honest" elections. He assailed dictatorships and promised to restore law and order and preserve good relations with the United States. At a news conference, he said he was forming a cabinet to work icy, the pace of German rearmament, moves toward European political and economic unity, the Middle East, and Western European trade with Red China. Nearly a dozen top German foreign policy experts led by Foreign Minister Heinrich Von Brentano joined Adenauer in Washington Sunday.

They came direct to the capital from New York while Adenauer flew off to Gettysburg. German Elections Coming Partly because of the approaching German elections, American officials from Eisenhower down were eager to demonstrate the confidence and trust they place in the visiting German leader. A ringing American re-affirma-, tion of the policy of seeking German unity can be expected in the final communique summing up; the talks. Such a vigorous restate-j ments expected to help Adenaucri and his Christian Democratic party beat back the challenge of the German Socialists in the scheduled September elections, 1 and that every political candidate would have all rights protected in the election scheduled for June 16. Observers believe Fignole would win hands down in any honest popular vote.

Fignole heads the fifth pro-! sional regime to try to govern since last December, when strong! man Paul E. Magloire was ousted for trying to prolong his term. Plan Memorial Services At Horse Prairie The regular annual Memorial Day services of the Horse Prairie Missionary Baptist Church near Sesser will be held as usual May 30th, with Rev. Hugh Moore, pastor. The speaker will be Rev.

Earlier Saturday a collision occurred at Ninth and Broadway. The brakes failed on a car driven by Ralph Snodsmith, of RFD 3, Bluford, and the car sideswiped a car driven by John Bobbltt of 2820 Cherry, which was stopped for a stop sign.

THE WEATHER ELSEWHERE By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Vote For Judge In 45 Precincts In This County Voting in next Monday's judicial election will be held in the 45 percinct polling places of Jefferson county. County Qerk Lester F.

Davis said that recent rumors that the election could be held in one polling place are not true. State statute provides, he pointed out, that judicial elections must be held in the regular precinct polling places unless there is a coalition ticket. There is no coalition ticket in this district as both the Republican and Democratic parties have full slates of candidates. A coalition ticket occurs when the two major parties select three men for the three circuit judge positions and, in effect, there is no contest. That is not the case in this judicial circuit, this year, so the election must, by law, be held in the regular precincts, Clerk Davis said.

He made it clear that he was willing to make some concessions saying: "If the Soviet government ser iously fears the revival of German 'militarism' it is free to demand, together with the reunification of Germany, effective guarantees of its (Russia's) security." Adenauer again rejected the Soviet proposal that he negotiate German reunification with the Communist East German Government. The 17 million East Germans, Adenauer said, are not free to make any decisions for themselves.

They are, he added, under the domination of Communist functionaries, who are falsely called the working class." The note was handed to the Soviet government in Moscow on Friday. It was the third exchange between the two governments in 24 hours and was in reply to a Soviet message sent last October. curve at the city limits. Sick" Teachers Return To Jobs CLIFTON, N. J.
