EFFECT or ACE PENSIONS
Subject Is One Which Is Command
ing Attention--Many Coun-
tries Legislate.

Whatever opinion one may hold
as to the economic effect of the
various forms of old-age pensions
which are now in operation in the
world, whether voluntary or part
of our governmental systems, the
subject is one which is command
ing an increasing attention at the
hands of Legislators and students
of social science. The association
of the subject with the extreme
programmes of socialism has
tended to divert the interest OF
many who would otherwise give
the problem the study which its
Importance deserves, though it is
/ a sigular fact that the present
German law of compulsory insur-
ance, which is the basis of the old
age pensions in that country, was
enacted through the influence of
Bismarck, who hoped by thus fore
stalling the socialists to check the
spread of that party, says the Phil
adelphia Ledger.
Many of the countries of Europe
have legislated in this direction.
and the pensions take varied
forms, being limited in some cases
to special classes of wage-earners,
such as miners and the like. In
these instances the state has as
sumed responsibility in the
premises by regulating the vOlun-
tary insurance associations of the
workers, by compelling payments
to such funds or by giving its guar
antee and aid.
In America the subject has
never been seriously considered as
coming within the scope of prac
teal or desirable legislation. The
nearest approach to government
. al old age pensions is the retire
: ment on part pay of certain officers
: who have given their lives to the
public service, but the extension
VI of the system to the general civil
. service has always been prompt.
e negatived whenever seriously pro

added the vast array of voluntar
e beneficial, friendly and insuranc

\ this country are seeking to solv

clining years.
