Congressman Reilly Favors the.
Bill for Retirement of Gov.
' ornment Employee
Things are humming in congress
just at present over the retirement of
government employcs when they are
unfit to keep up with the present race
on account of old age or disability.
Most of the representatives who have
kept informed on the subject are con
viuced that. there would be a great
advance in eiiiciency as well an in
actual saving in money to the govern-
ment by the adoption at a. straight
pension plan, Joseph T. Manley, the
president ot‘Ithe British Actuarial so-
ciety of Great Britain declares that
no other plan should be considered
for a country, 011' a corporation or any
importance.
Congressman Hamill, who has intro-
duced the direct retirement hill in con-
gress. had two hearings on the meas-
ure last week before the cemnnttee
on reform in the civil service and he
is enthusiastic over the chewing made
by the advocates 0! his measure who
supplied figures and information that
at times startled the committee. It
was shown that clerical veterans, de-
bilioted and crippled drag themselves
to work after 56 years service for Un~
cle ‘Sam. drawing full pay when they
would be thankful to‘rettre on half pay
so that an 110th young man could do
the work.
There is one man on the treasury
depnp‘tment payroll over 96 years of
age. The state of Massachusetts al-
lows its employer to retire after 311
years or service, under an act passed
last year. Mr. 1151111111 is positive tint

sion owing to the insistent 110th

. President Ted’s declmtion in his
from all parts or the country to . out 1
until a retirement plan is adopted to
pmvidc u1-"lentititnil.\ for 11112 veterans
of the service. '
Information for Committee
The United 311111111 Civil Service lit-1. 3
form association through its otiicers..
placed all of its accumulated inform-i
ntion on the subject. at the disposal of
the. committee. The committee mom I
hers questioned 111cm freely and show 1
generally that they had been minnow-es”
ented in some sections of the country
for political purposes that the southern
representatives in congress would ne-
ver listen to theldea of anyone retir-
ing on a“ pension due to the depth or
feeling over the , conditions in the
south. On the contrary they seemed
to be wide open to prgumont of early
action as the best means. of improving
the service. Many congressmen are
importuning the committee daily to re-
port thc Hamill bill. Once reported to
the house its friends have no doubt of
its passage.
Congreuman Reilly in Favor.
The United States Civil Service ile-
form association held its annual eon-
vention in Wnlbington, i). 0., on Jun-
nary 19 and 20, with representatives
present of over 1200.000 government
employees. The meeting, practically
resolved itself inton ratification of
the Work of the otilcers during the
year, which seems about to be
crowned with success. A number or
congressmen addressed the meetinx.
each one confident the bill would
pass, although one or two cautioned
hto members to keep up the work or
education and spreading of intorma-
tion in ,order that. public opinion
should beIprqperly represented in the
action of mpmenmtives in congress.
The members were delighted with
economy, and emciency message, that
he would submit in a day. or two a
plan for the retirement or govern-
ment employees. along the lines of his
testimony when he was secretary or
