Favors Legislative
Pay Increase
Dallas—Ford Motor Com-
pany endorses proposed
Amendment No. 3 to the Con-
stitution of the State of Texas
that would permit an increase
in legialative pay, according to
John McKee of Dallas, Ford re-
gional civic and governmental
affairs manager.
“We are urging support of
this amendment because of our
continuing interest in improv-
ing the standards of govern-
ment at all levels and in en-
couraging greater participa-
tion in politics,” he said. “Its
adoption would permit com-
pensating legislators more in
keeping with the high public
function they perform and
more adequately for the sacri-
fice of time and money that
normally accompany their ser-
vice.
“We feel that the present
compensation of our law mak-
ers is unrealistically low and
does not serve the beat Interest
of the people of Texas."
