tons Have Been Held Up.
Money for Increases Has Been Turn
eel Back Into Treasury for
Economy, Tie Says.

Editor The Washington Herald:
/ wish TO add my hearty thanks to
those which you have already received
for the just and earnest fight which you
are making TO get the poorer paid gov
eminent clerks better salaries.
There is one fact that you are probably
not familiar with. and which 10 one
seems TO have touched upon in your
columns.
Heads OF the various departments have
many promotions that they are holding
up and which could have been given out
long ago. For some reason probably the
economy policy Of the administration
there has been no promotions for many
months There has been a number OF
designations. deaths. and changes which
formerly meant promotions 10 the lower
grades Of clerks Although 10 IS without
question the duty Of Congress TO raise
the salaries generally, it would afford inn
mediate relief TO a few deserving and
patient clerks II the promotions available
we're given out now.
Possibly this money. which has hereto
fore been looked forward 90 as pro-
motions. has been turned back into the
Treasury In the interest OF economy II
this is the case I think YOU VIII agree
with me that u is false economy and
contrary 70 good business methods.
Trusting that YOU VIII give this matter
attention, and investigate this phase Of
the question, / remain,
Yours sincerely. u. b.

sionable age. for it means that he works
for years for less than the full market
rate Of salary in the hope Of some day
receiving a pension. and that he or his
family is deprived of the difference by
reason of his failure TO remain in the
service until he reaches reasonable age.
AS statistics show that only about half
OF the entrants into any given service
survive TO a pensionable age. and of that
half only a portion remain I'm the service
TO that age it is apparent that a straight
pension can only benefit a small part of
the whole service. The majority are alb
solutely worse of by reason OF a pension
system than they would he without it,
since they thereby suffer reduction in the
actual emoluments Of Office This state
of things in England resulted, four months
ago. in an amendment to their super
annuation law, which makes their So
called pension scheme virtually a con-
tributory plan.
Why repeat the blunders OF other con-
tries2 Since We know that the stTaightest
of straight pensions is certain 10 become
a patched-up contributory plan, why not
start right in the first place, while We
have a chance by adopting correct CON
:rbutory plan? Better increase salaries,
with the requirement that a certain por-
ton Of the increase shall be set aside by
each individual to provide his pension,
rather than grant pensions from the
Treasury and make no provision for an
increase.
Congress is hardly likely 20 do both. II
the employees insist on a straight pension,
and their request Is granted, their chances
for an increase Of salary are surely great
~ less. What are the comparative ad-
vantages for the employe Of following
these two different courses? Experience
shows that a general average Of or 6
per cent OF salary will provide pensions
for a service where the contributions are
invested at interest straight pension
means. therefore. an increase OF only . or
per cent 10 the employees. and that
comes TO those only who survive 20 PEN
siOuable age. The others gain less. as
shown above, than If there We're no pen
sion system. On the other hand, a salary
increase, with correct contributorv re-
tiTement plan. would mean an absolute
and immediate benefit 10 everybody in the
service.

increase of 80 1-3 per cent Deducting 8

ASK FOR REPEAL IF
FIRE INSURANCE
RATE LAW
Ell PasO Merchants Want
Action at Special Session
of Legislature.

Ell Paso will insist upon the repeal
at the special session of the Legislature
which will meet at Austin on July 10.
This was the sentiment of the board
of directors Of the chamber of COM
merce at meeting held Tuesday after
noon. A committee of five property own
| ers and insurers will be selected by
| the directors to gather data and get all
the information possible for the use of
senator c. B. HUdspeth and represen-
tative W. c. McGown. who will repre-
sent FL Paso at the meeting of the
legislature in an effort to get a lower
fire insurance rate.
In addition to the board of directors
of the chamber of commerce, both SEN
ator Hudspeth and representative Nc
Gown were present together With 4. P
Coles and II. d. Slater. The entire
afternoon was taken up with the dis
cussion of the policy to be adopted by
the policyholders of Ell Paso regarding
the new law and its appeal. Although
no formal motion was passed by the
chamber the general sentiment of the
directors was that the law should be
repealed and another framed in which
the obnoxious clauses would be elm
mated.
A number Of interesting points were
brought out during the discussion One
was that the 80 percent clause which
is being insisted upon being attached
to all policies by the insurance COM
panies is not included in the present
law and there is no legal justification
for its application. The repeal Of the
law and the framing Of a new bill which
would include the appointment of fire
rating board by the governor, was ad-
vocated by W z. Anderson and others
present. the governor to be given pow
er to remove these members when he
thought best
a. P. Coles advised against the repeal
of the law, stating that the people of
FL Paso would be worse off after the
bill had been repealed than they are
now and that he thought the rate with
the reductions and what improv tents
could be made would be as low or low
er than before the passage of the bill.
Both senator HudSpeth and represen-
tative McGown spoke before the board
asking for information about the rates
here and also asking for a statement
Of the position of the business men on
the new law.
