Facts Not Generally Known Regarding

Commissioners Raum asked for STAT
300, 900 for pensions for the next fiscal

lions has decided to allow nearly $751;
900. 600. or Sl., 600. 900 less than he
asked for. but nearly rs much rs was
appropriated for the current year.
The committee sc .mcd inclined to
think for a time that a much smaller
sum would serve. According to the
monthly reports Of expenditures, il tap
pears that only about Ss3. 900. 0D0 was
actually disburscd on account Of PEN
sions during the expired eight months
Of the current year. nj which rate the
total for the year would b. less than
S125, OOc. 900. or over $40. O)o.00) less
than the amount appropriated. From
these figures IL was inferred that Sis5..
600, 900 would suffice for next year.
But Commissioner Raum made q
statement before the committee that
on the Goth ult. no less than s66, Oh ap-
rlications were pending. 4s4.a00 Of
which. or more than half. were for
original pensions. lie further stated
that he was pushing the work Of pass
ing upon claims. aud. as the first pay
ment on new claims averaged Sl35. n
| good deal Of money would be required
10 meet them. The action Of the com
mittee seems 10 have been based in .
measure upon these statements.
There has been some mystery about
the pension payments thus far this
year which the commissioners state
ments, so far as they have been made
public. do not clear up lie claims to
have been pushing the york Of passing
upon the great mass II applications
made under the disability act all along.

that act, and yet the aetna cxpcndi-
turc for the first eight months Of this
year was $4,000. 900 less than that for
the corresponding months last year.
This has not been explained TO the
public. Nor has II been explained why
40 much more should be required for
next year in view Of the decrease this
year ms compared with last. II looks
much as though the commissioner had
been retarding instead Of pushing the
work. or rs though the payment Of
