TRIBUNE: FRIDAY. CHICAGO DAILY DECEMBER 11. 1936. 18 ALDERMEN MOVE To CUT ELECTION BOARD PAY LEVEL A 1 ILDE VlatatS OF STATE BOARD SOUGHT ON PAROLE ABUSES TE SE slashed by the controler from the fire department's appropriation re. quests.

This item was for a new fireboat. Failure to restore the item means the city will not get the boat. $6,106,540 Voted for Relief. The committe also voted to include an appropriation of $6,106,540 for relief purposes in the budget. The sum is the amount expected to be produced by the relief tax of 30 cents on each $100 of property The state sales tax, if continued on its present basis through all of 1937, is expected to return to the city relief funds totaling $22,800,000, but the aldermen decided to make no provision for the appropriation of these funds.

The general assembly recently extended the sales tax to next May 1, it was pointed out, but there is no assurance that the income will continue during the whole year. Representatives of policemen, firemen, and other civil service pleaded with the council committee for a return to the basic civil service wage scale. The 1937 budget has been set up in the controler's estimate on the basis of the 39 days' pay deduction. The executive committee of the judges of the Superior court recommended yesterday that 77 be allotted to Victor L. Schlaeger, new clerk of the court, and appropriated for in the county budget for 1937.

The number is two more than asked by Schlaeger in his petition to the Circuit court committee on help, which fixes the number of in county fee offices.

'-r-tA t'' 'd il CS 0: Os II NI 93 3 1 'F i 's I I'''. ei t1 .1 1 4 I '43 'SI to $5 The long fight between the city council and the election board over pay reductions for the board's 111 clerical employes reached a climax last night at a meeting of the council' finance committee, which is drafting the city's 1937 budget.

The committee adopted a resolution asking County Judge Jarecki, an ex officio member of the election board, to enter an order reducing the pay of the board's employes to equalize their wages with those of other city employes who have been receiving 39 days less than a year's pay for the sake of economy. Such a reduction, it was estimated, would reduce the board's budget $23,000 from the tentative total submitted for approval, which is $432,140. Employe Reduction Rejected. At a previous meting of the finance committee the election board offered to reduce its budget $50,900 by dismissing eleven employes. This proposal was rejected by the committee, which at that time expressed hope that all city employes could be placed on the same wage basis, including those who work for the election board and the Municipal court.

The committee seeks this uniformity in wage scales, it was explained, because the city plans to go before the state legislature to ask for an increase in the tax levy for the corporate operating fund, now pegged at $37,000,000. Last night, however, after the resolution had been adopted with the aim of reducing the election board budget, the finance committee approved the $1,048,343 budget. submitted by the Municipal court without a request for deducting 39 days' pay. Approve Total of $51,509,803. Shortly before 3 o'clock this morning the finance committee tentatively approved the controler's estimate of $51,509,803 for the 1937 budget.

This is slightly higher than the revised and final 1936 budget of $51,471,412. The estimate is subject to certain amendments and changes which are not expected to be material. The committee agreed that all extra money that can be found shall be diverted to the street department for garbage removal and the like.

The arrest was made by Lieut, Ray Crane and Sergt. Tom Casey, Mayor'Kelly's bodyguards. The Drexel address is that of the Wilmington hotel, where more than a dozen painters are employed in redecorating the building. According to the Hyde Park police, a number of painters complained that they had been threatened by representatives of the union Wednesday. Dungan and Henneman, who both gave the address of 3116 Lowe avenue, were ordered held for a showup.

On Jan. 3 last Mrs. Elsie Henneman, wife of the secretary treasurer, was killed by a shotgun blast while riding with her husband near Root street and Stewart avenue. Henneman escaped unscathed. BY SPAIN'S FAR-FAMED SHERRY FAMILY Charles C.

Feather ly, 67 years old, a Chicago Park district and his wife, Marie, 17 years old, are the parents of an eight pound son, Clyde Mark, born last week Dec. 2 in their home at 614 Drake avenue. Their marriage on Aug. 11, 1935 climaxed a 25 year friendship between Feather ly and his bride's father, Herman Schell, 1019 West 20th place. In approving the marriage, Shelf said: It was love at first sight.

They'll be happy all right. Featherly is a fine man." Featherly, whose first wife died in May, 1935, said he had bounced Marie on his knee when he visited her father. Romance developed, he explained, during visits of the girl to Dvorak park. Cullerton and Fisk streets, where Featherly formerly was director. At the time of their marriage, he was director of Stanford park, Barber and Jefferson streets.

Last Friday, two days after the son's birth, Featherly was promoted to director of all theatrical department workshops of the park district. 8 A EZ 0: A conference with the state pardon and parole board to discuss parole abuses will be sought by a group of lawyers and public officials who met yesterday on call of Frank J. Loesch, president of the Chicago crime commission, for a preliminary talk on remedial legislation. Although no program was evolved at this meeting for presentation to the general assembly next month, the interchange of ideas found the ten conferees, who included State's Attorney Courtney and Chief of Detectives John L. Sullivan, in accord on several points.

One of the suggestions favorably received would call for determinate, lather than indeterminate, prison sentences to be imposed by the courts. The present system of indeterminate sentences, it was pointed out, gives the parole board broad discretion in fixing the length of time a criminal must serve. Recommendation Is Deferred. "Determinate sentence Mr. Loesch said after the meeting, were favored by a majority of those present, but there was no decision to recommend their adoption.

They are so tied up with other matters discussed that it seemed advisable to postpone commitments until we can confer with the parole board. I hope we can do so within two weeks. "Our discussion was up -hill and down-dale and we all have got a better idea of the parole question. However, we are not fully advised and want to hear the board's side on several matters." Mr. Loesch indicated that the meeting showed a desire to cooperate, if possible, with the board on a legislative program.

One proposal discussedfull publicity for all parolesdid not find much favor, he said. "Most of the men," he commented, "felt that complete publicity would do more harm than good, inasmuch as about 75 per cent ot all parolees make good." Favor "Massachusets System." The so-called "Massachusetts system" of imposing both a minimum and maximum prison sentence was "spoken of favorably," Mr. Loesch said, but he declined to say who suggested it. Under this system courts can, for example, impose a sentence of from one to seven years and add that the defendant shall serve not less than three nor more than five years. Discretionary powers of the parole board thus are limited.

Other conferees were: State Senator Harold G. Ward, Chicago Democratic leader; Representative Elmer J. Schnackenberg, Chicago Republican leader; Wilbert F. Crowley, first assistant state's attorney; Col. Henry Barrett Chamberlin, operating director of the crime commission; Judge John Prystalski of the Circuit court, and Judge Robert 'C.
