The 10. Pension Plan.

The pension plan about to be put
in operation by the Illinois Central
Railway is as wise as it is bene-
ficent. Wise, because it insures
faithful and continuous service TO
the Company, and bene6cient, be
cause it makes for its faithful EN-
ployes a provision against want in
old age.
In two important respects the
pension plan differs from those of
all other railroad companies. All
others restrict the right to pensions
to employees who have been in con-
tinuous service for not less than
thirty years and the'maximum age
at which any man may enter the
service is fixed at 35 years. Under
the Illinois Central's plans all off,
GERS and employees who have at
tanned the age of 20 years shall be
retired, and those who have been
for ten years in the service of the
Company shall be pensioned when
retired. A further reduction in the
minimum age limit for pensions is
made. Instead of limiting the pen
sion privilege to actual employees of
the Illinois Central Railroad Com
pany proper, it is extended to all
employees on the system, and men
employed on roads which were alb
sorbed by the Illinois Central are
given credit for length of service
with the Company before its alb
sOrption.
When it is remembered that this
Company employees about $4,000
men, all active and in the main
highly efficient, it is not difficult to
get some idea Of what it means to
provide for the old age of these en-
ployes. The plan, of course, has
IN view the maintenance
Of the standard of efficiency in the
Companys service, but this does
not lessen the significance of the
growing idea among railway COM
panies that men who have become
gray in their employ should not
fear want when they are no longer
able to work.
