Release WPA Workers on Rolls 18 Months; Increase Salaries Charles E. Miner, state WPA adâ€" ministrator, revealed last week deâ€" tails of the new Works Progress adâ€" ministration pay rates which beâ€" come effective September 1. Deerâ€" field, West Deerfleld and Shields Townships, as well as the cities of Waukegan and North Chicago will enjoy the highest rate, while the rest of Lake County will be in the next highest bracket. The average worker will receive approximately $2.50 more per month, under the new schedule. Under the new setup, occupations are divided into five classes, dependâ€" ing on skill, experience and trainâ€" ing required, and the elements of hazard and trust involved. Unskilled indoor labor in the class one rating, which includes Waukeâ€" gan, North Chicago and southâ€" eastern townships, was set at $52; unskilled _ outdoor labor, $57.20; semiâ€"skilled, $68.90; skilled, $89.70, and â€" professional and _ technical, $94.90. This means that the preferred parts of Lake county will have a wage scale ranging from $52 to $94.90 a month (which is the same paid to WPA‘ers on the Chicago roll) with the balance of the county receiving wages from $48.10 to $84.50 a month. Other sections of Lake county were placed in class two with unâ€" skilled indoor labor quoted at $48.10; unskilled outdoor labor, $52; semiâ€"skilled, $62.40; skilled, $81.90, and professional and . technical, $84.50. The new WPA law requires that differences in pay for relief workâ€" ers doing the same work in different areas shall be based only on variaâ€" tions in living costs according to Col. F. C. Harrington, WPA comâ€" missioner at Washington. where an admission Saturday Virginia Bruce, Walter Pidgeon, Lee Bowman, Ann Dvorak, Rita Johnson TERRYTUNE CARTOONâ€""Africa Squawks" â€" TRAVELTALKâ€"*"Tempâ€" Bunday, Monday, Tuesday Beptember 3, 4, 5 (Ban. continmous 3 to 11) â€" (Ioa?.

The curtailment ordered by conâ€" gress fixed Aug. 31 as the deadline for compliance with the reduction provision, Miner pointed out. He indicated that the 18â€"month clause does not mean a "layoff" or an "enâ€" forced vacation" but that jobs of all persons who have been WPA workâ€" ers for that period shall be "termâ€" inated" or "cancelled." Only when the workers have gone through the process of recertificaâ€" tion to a relief status can they hope to regain their WPA jobs and even then their names only go on the eligible list for work opportunities.

Riverview‘s "Mardi Gras Caraniâ€" val," which opened its 1989 edition on Saturday (August 19) is the streamâ€"lined version of one of the Early in Riverview history, the waning summer was dedicated to a special spirit of revelry. Floats were built and decorated for the occasion, and park visiters, young and old, donned costumes to join in the festivity. In the old days, Riverview‘s carâ€" nival followed in pattern, as well as in name, the famous New Orleans Mardi Gras. ‘The colorful and elabâ€" orate costumes and floats competed closely with those of the historical fete. And, on the other hand, sometimes floats that proved a special suecess in New Orleans were brought to Riverview a few months later for the park carnival. Indeed, veteran Riverview emâ€" ployees remember that often times the park floats were carefully preâ€" served and shipped to New Orleans for the February festivities there. Five or six years ago, the park management arrived at the concluâ€" sion that Chicago fun seekers were tiring of the carnival and discontinâ€" ued it. But not for long. Popular demand would not allow it, and the custom was revived in 1987. Since the revival and in keeping with Riverview‘s policy of keeping abreast of the times, the carnivals have been modernized. Witness the presentation last year of the "Parade of the Giant Comiques," seen at Riverview for the first time in Chiâ€" cago. Dragons, pirates, clowns, animals â€"fabulous and grotesqueâ€"comic characters, the whole population from some fairyland nation, will make up the procession. More than five hundred persons will be requirâ€" ed to carry them as they march and to supply the motion that will make them seem almost lifeâ€"like. The procession will be accompanâ€" ied by a troupe of clowns, and all Riverview visitors who come to the park in costume will be invited to join in the parade. In keeping with tradition, all visitors who come out in costume will be admitted free during the carnival.
