PLANS FOR Improvement
FAVORED AND ALSO A GRAD
UATED SCALE OF WAGES FOR
DARING WORKERS.
BY JONATHAN WINFIELD.

Washington, May 14.-With the re-
organization of the various branches
of the treasury department, announce
ment is to be made shortly of a COM
plete reorganization of the life saving
service. Not only does Secretary Mac
Veagh of the treasury consider that
this service is most important one,
| but he has taken steps for its inl-
provement. He has drafted bill to
be introduced in congress which if
passed will place the service ON pen
| sion basis. The bill contemplates two
propositions: First to create a retired
list for superintendent of life saving
districts, keepers of life saving sta
tons and members of life saving
crews, constituting the field force of
| graduated scale of increase in salaries
for the same officers and men, based
on length of service.
What MacVeaah Says.
In speaking of the subject, Mr. Mac
Veagh said: 81 think some such pro-
! vision is indispensable to a thoroughly
| efficient service. because of the reluc-
lance of superior officers to deprive
of their means to support worthy sub
ordinates who have expended the best
years of their lives in the faithful SER
vice of the government. Justice both
| to the employees and to the public SER
vice demands it. Our nation, notwith-
| standing its reputed great wealth and
liberality in expenditures, is the only
| one of the leading nations of the world
| that has not made some provision of
| this kind for employees who have be-
come incapacitated in it's service. The
trend of public sentiment in this di-
rection in our country is unmistak-
able, as shown by the action of our
great universities, our principal mu-
inequalities and many of our large cor
porations. So generally is this course
being adopted by our best managed
railroads and other progressive and
powerful corporations. that the con-
clusion seems irresistible that it has
not been dictated by considerations of
humanity alone. but is regarded as a
sound economic and business policy"
Never Reached Vote.
A record of events has shown that
similar measures have been introduce
ed in congress during the last thirty
years. In 1888 a bill granting pen
sions to certain officers and enlisted
men of the life saving service was
unanimously reported from the COM
mittee on pensions of the house. as
was one several years later, but neith-
err measure reached a vote.
A contention, hitherto advanced by
some members Of congress in opposi-
ton to such a measure, is that the
granting of retirement pensions to the
life saving service would operate as
an entering wedge in the creation of a
pension list for the benefit of the
civil employees of the governemnt gen
orally, and their opposition to the ad-

A great many people seem to be
worried because Theodore Roosevelt
will not be counted by the census emu

census sheets will have been turned
in before the colonel returns to this

will be omitted from the records. But
there is no occasion for alarm. Col.

vice.
Are Like the Soldiers.
In his recommendations to United
States Senator Frye, who is to intro
duee the bill in the senate, MIR. Mac
Veagh says in part: The life saw

very similar to those of the soldier
and sailor. He is enlisted for speci-

cal examination, TO which is added a
