This is based on the current salary scale of $10,000 for mayor, $4,000 each for control- lers and $1,500 each for alder- men, over a year. With # mayor, four control- lers and 12 aldermen this amounts to $71,000 annually. The present council has recommended to the 1967 coun- ceil that it review salaries paid to aldermen, If a pay hike is approved, the aldermen could earn an additional $500, (an amount dis- cussed in committee), boosting their yearly total to $2,000 A $500 raise to aldermen, under the present system, would also automatically mean a $506 a year increase for con- trollers, The two groups combined would then net $8,000 more a year or $16,000 over their term office, CONVENTIONS Of course there are conven- tion expenses which also must de considered.

The problem, said school in- spector W. J, MacDonald, is that the new schools have prac- tically everything in the way of equipment and the old schools| have very little. Mr. MacDonald submitted a lengthy report to the board, which was not given to the press, outlining the equipment that each school should have. From discussion it appeared that although some of the new schools came very close, there wasn't one in the system that had absolutely everything. Mr. MacDonald recommend- ed that the board devote $2 a pupil per year until the equip- ment is brought up to standard, "It will take three or four years," he said. "Obviously we can't do it all at once." The board agreed to this recommendation, , City Man Jailed | Three -Year Term Martin Kozlar, 30, of Simcoe Ctreet North, Oshawa, was sen- tenced in Hamilton yesterday to three years in penitentiary on a charge of break, entry and theft.
