_ > _ The Higbland Park Press | Congratulations are in order, both to the city of| ' Highwood and to John Frantonius. To John for being elevated to the mayor‘s chair, and the city for its good fortune in getting a good man to serve out the unexpired term of Thomas Mussatto, who resigned _ _ @ because he felt that what Shakespeare called "the We*daw‘s deiays" were operating for the benefit of a . gav:hrn ownfr whose establishment was ordered closed â€"___by the city liquor commission.â€" _ . _~_ : "~I _ N6o ofi”é%‘ah‘fl&flfit“mmm in t to administer the city‘s laws. Whether or not he was â€" right, is of course, for the courts to decide, but cerâ€" tainly his action has pin pointed both public and judiâ€" cial attention on the case. _ Talking off the record, some of them have opined that there may well be enough possible savings in opâ€" erational procedures to enable the city to grant at least some relief, even without a tax increase. How ever, they admit that a realistic increase in the size of â€"â€"â€"â€"theâ€"staff, coupled with a really adequate pay raise ... _ Wwould require a sizable sum of money. â€" ~~~â€". * This decision was reached after a complete presentation of facts, considerationsâ€"and possibilities for the future was made by Mr. Robâ€" ert Cushman and Mr. Robert Loâ€" gan, two of the lawyers who have been donating their services to the citizens of Highland Park for this litigation. Mr, David Levinson is the other attorney who has been working on this case gratuitously. ~ It is the opinion of these inâ€" formed men that a review of the case by the Supreme Court may same manner to that end. Another factor which influenced the Board in its decision was the information that, conditions being fuvorable, the High School may now proceed with building plans «Whether or not the Board proâ€" ceeds at once will depend on the availability of materials and the eost of the program.

Lake Forest from the District to. the. Supreme Court. His successor can be dépended upon to be equally sincere in his efforts to give the city an efficient adâ€" ministration. â€" & > would require a sizable sum of money. f * In d%cuismg the size of the staff, we think one point has been insufficiently stressed. Before the last two men were lost to the armed forces, the depart ment had 18 menâ€"butâ€"that does not mean 18 men on duty. There are three shifts a day, so 18 men means an average of six men per shift. At least one must be in the station to operate the radio equipment, which leaves a maximum of five men available. However, days off, and occasional sickness may mean as few as three men per shift available for outside patrol work. The 18â€"man force shrinks pretty fast, doesn‘t it? Of course, men work overtime (without extra pay) and sometimes you can short one shift to bolster up anâ€" other, but just adding two or even four more men to the department still wouldn‘t give Highland Park a really large enough department. And unless an adeâ€" uate pay scale is achieved we‘re going to have trouble getting even a few. Congratulations though none of them have publicly outlined any defiâ€" nité plans for increasing salaries, they have virtually all admitted that a larger department and equitable pay are problems that must be solved. It will be interesting to see how the new council will approach the admittedly imperative need for adeâ€" quate salaries for police and other city employes.
