To the Editor Of The Star:
AS the President of the United States
approaches Washington in returning from
his visit to the west and south the at
mosphere surrounding government en-
ployes In the classified service seems to
etherealize. because they look up to the
President as their friend.
Confident i'm the belief that President
Taft means TO do the right thing in the
right way at the right time and remem-
bering an address delivered by him at a
meeting of the Civil Service Retirement
which he. encouraged the association to
urge the retirement question for congress
sionaI action, 1t is but natural to hope
that the hearts of the elderly clerks may
be made glad by vigorous recommends
ton in his annual message that an equit-
able law-such a law as has already been
prepared, 1t is understood. upon stat sites
supplied by reputable actuaries-be enact
ed at it's approaching session; law that
would meet the requirements of the pub
lie service. provide for the aged employees
In Their declining years and prepare a
way for the advancement Of the younger
element, who are now efficient and de-
serving of consideration.
A Harsh Necessity Alleged.
The requirements Of the public service.
II appears, from arguments heretofore
and now entertained in some quarters,
are that the superannuated employees
should be removed or reduced in salary.
notwithstanding their long years OF faith
full employment at salaries which have
not been increased during the last fifty
years, although meantime the cost OF liv-
ing has been nearly doubled and many
other working people have received more
than double pay for their labor to en-
able them to meet the demands OF the
times. Such a contingency is not thought
to be possible, in view Of the generosity
of this nation in prov ding so royalty for
the retirement of its judiciary and the
army and the navy, and the millions an
nually appropriated as pensions Tor its
defenders. when but comparatively
small additional amount would set the re-
tirement scheme in motion IN the interest
alike of the government and its old and
young employees. The vacancies that
might be created under such a law
would open up channel for new and
younger blood, and for advancement all
along the line.
The fear that a civil pension list might
creep into the statutes through this me-
dunn is chimerical. as all other nations Of
| any Importance and many corporate and
| commercial institutions the world over
have voluntarily invested IN similar
