Show Congressional Salaries Go Up - Salaries of congressmen and senators go back to $10,000 a year on July 1. No more wage cuts for the nation's lawmakers law-makers after that. The 10 percent reduction thru last year was only for a 12 months' trial period and after the year's trial the congressmen don't like it. It costs a lot ol' money to live in Washington city- if you're a congressman. The salary should he high enough to' keep lawmakers in some degree of comfort. We won't do a lot of complaining about the $10,000 salaries sal-aries if the gentlemen of house ami senate will try to earn 'cm which they can if they will. A good congressman is WOKTH $10,000 a year. The trouble is that so few of the fellows we elect are that good. |
