Several weeks ago the British house Of
commons adopted a resolution declaring
that measure for universal old-age PEN
sions were imparatiyely needed In
France an old-aRe pension bill for work
ingnen is actually pending in parlilnent.
II has passed the chamber. and now that
the general election has increased the
majority Of the parties in power the
senate is expected to take similar action
on the bill, being, as it is, prominent
feature Of the republican radical-socialist
platform aud Of the governments pro-
gramme for tile year.
That the old-age pension movement is
steadily growing is further indicated by
reports which come almost simultaneously
from Australia and Newfoundland. The
legislature of the latter colony, we learn,
has, on the strength Of preliminary in
quiry. adopted without a dissenting vote
a resolution for the establishment of a
general oldage pension system. Sir
Robert Bond, the premiar estimates the
annual cost OF such system at between
$4,000 aud $500, 900 IAN amount, he
thinks, that would not put an undue
strain upon the financies and public re-
sources OF the little colony. A Acommission
will elaborate the details Of the scheme
and decide upon what conditions, as to
character and time of residence, pensions
shall be granted.
The commonwealth of Australia ap-
pointed a royal commission some time ago
t. inquire into the subject of federal old
aye pension legislation. The constituent
states of New South Wales and Victoria
have such legislation in force as has
New Zealand, by the way-but the people
are not satisfied &ith state provisions.
The commission has made unanimous
report in favor Of system of pensions for
the benefit of all reputable persons of the
age Of 65 (or of 60 if disabIed) such PEN
sions to be regarded mot as charity but
as right" The cost of the federal sys-
fem is to sbe charged upon the genera
eoRsolidated revenue. Every British
white subject of the commonwealth lie to
receive So 80 week. unless he has other
sources OF income, in which case he is to
get less or nothing at all. Those who are
worth 81, l50 or more are to be entitled to
no payment from the public treasury. 1t
is estimated that the proposed system will
entail, for the present, an annual expense
Of 81, 900.
