Census May Change County Classifica tion | (Continued from from Page 1) to the county poor district. Similarly, | there would be no change In State Highway aid to the county However, there could be created! in the county the positions of assists ant district attorney and county de- teetive, neither of which now exist. Salaries which could be paid to such, officers are: Assistant District Ate torney, $1,260; County Detective, not over $4,000, and stenographer to as- sist District Attorney, $750. Appoint=! ment of an Assistant Distriet Attor- ney and County Detective could be made only with the consent of the county's President Judge. A feature of the sixth class couns ty rules is that a county salary board, consisting of the Commis- sioners and the County Treasurer, would be established, This board would meet the first Monday of each vear to fix the various county sal aries for the year Another change would be that the Prothonotary, Register, and Record- er would be paid by the county, They would turn in all receipts to | the County Treasurer. Under the | resent system, those officers collect fees and return to the county! amounts over the remuneration they re allowed by law. The officials wld retain any fees they collected State agents Most county officers would receive ger salaries or fees under a sixth- class county set-up. Following is a mparative list of sixth class coun- ty salaries as compared with the resent seventh class scale Sheriff, $4000; 7th class, $3000. The sheriff also would be allowed expenses incurred in the performs- ance of his duties, the same at present Prothonotary and Clerk of Courts, £4,000. This is the same as the pres- ent maximum Register of Wills and Clerk of Or- phans Court, $3500. Present limit is £4,000 Recorder of Deeds, maximum is $4,000. Treasurer, $4,000; now on percent- age basis Commissioners, $3.000 each. Under the present system the Commission- ers receive $1000 annually, and $800 additional as Institution District of- The $3000 sixth-class fee! would include the Commissioners’ services for the Institution District. District Attorney, $2 400. The pres- ent salary is $2,100 Auditors and Jury Commissioners, $6 per day each and circular mile- age once a week. These officers now receive $5 a day Board of View, $10 a day each and mileage of 5 cents. The Board mem- bers now receive $750 a day I'he Coroner, Surveyor and Engin- eer would be paid on a fee basi under the sixth-class regulations, 1f Bellefonte and State College same as at presen Schools Greatly Affected If Bellefonte and State College should become third class school dis- tricts through the census, a number of changes would result. The districts, now receiving 40, 50 and 60 per cent of teachers’ salaries from the State, would lose heavily, for the general State aid for teach- ers for third class districts is about 35 per cent. A new salary schedule for teach- would go into effect. Under its provisions the minimum salary for elementary teachers would be $1.- 000, with a compulsory increase each vear of $100 for four years. The pres- ent minimum is $800 annually, with provisions for an increase High schoo] teachers would re- ceive a minimum salary of $1200 annually, with a mandatory annual increase of $100 a year for four years, The present minimum is $1.- 170. with no mandatory increases Under the third class regulations, it would be possible for the districts to name a school superintendent. This is not compulsory Another important change under’ hird class regulations would be that he school boards would be com- posed of seven members, instead of five, 4s at present. With these changes in the offing, it can readily be seen that the pres- ent census in Centre county is more than a mere counting of noses. nt ct snc Mtn So—— Killed By Falling Rock Rocks blasted from a hillside above Brady, in Coal township near Sunbury, on a WPA highway pro- ject, rolled down a 200-foot slope and killed Joseph Zwolinski, who was walking down the main street of the town when a 35-pound rock | struck him on the head.

There wis no ope in the plant at the time of the fire Plant officials report that the res- ervoir under the machine contained a mixture of fuel and lubricating oils. When the machine is in oper- ation, the oll is pumped over moving points and flows back into the rgs- ervolr. The ofl mixture is not high- ly inflammable, and would not ig- nite from a spark. Plant workers ex- pressed the belief that a short cir- cult in a wooden platform sup- porting the machine might have caused a fire, and that embers falls ing Into the reservoir ignited the oil. The intense heat of the burning oil warped the heavy castings on the machine; ruined delicate bear- ings and drew the temper from giant steel rollers. The machine, used in sizing and straightening steel rods, will require complete re- building. Part of the loss is covered by Insurance.
