Description

RUGG, Chief Justice. This is an action of contract brought by the clerk of the Superior Court for civil business for the county
of Suffolk, to recover $606.51 alleged to have been unlawfully and against his protests deducted from his annual salary as
such clerk. No witnesses were called. The case was presented on statements by counsel in open court. The defendant admitted
that the plaintiff was duly elected clerk of the Superior Court; that his annual salary of $6,800 was payable in monthly instalments
of $566.65; that the plaintiff's bills were duly audited and allowed by the auditor of the defendant; and that the deductions
of the were made for the months of March, 1932, to April, 1933, by order of the mayor of the defendant and against the protests
of the plaintiff. The plaintiff admitted that the deductions from his salary so made by order of the mayor were made as contributions
to public welfare. The defendant relies entirely upon St. 1933, c. 121, § 6. It is in these words: 'All action heretofore taken by
said city of Boston or any of the officials thereof in making deductions from salaries of officers and employees paid from
the treasury of the city of Boston as contributions to public welfare is hereby ratified and confirmed and shall have the
same force and effect as if they were reductions made under the provisions of this act.' That act took effect upon its passage
and was approved on April 11, 1933. It authorized deductions similar to those made from the plaintiff's salary here in controversy.
All the deductions here in suit were made before the operative date of that act.
