Library Board Has a
Pension Plan in View
System of Acquiring Retirement Fund
and Pensioning Old Employees
is Mapped Out,

II the Omaha Public Library board has
It's way and the plan under consideration
at Friday nights meeting is carried out, the
employees of the library will in the fu-
ture enjoy the benefits of a pension sys-
tenn.
The board contemplates a plan that would
not entail additional tax or burden upon
the public; namely. to accumulate a re-
tirement fund by a small salary assess
ment upon the employees OF the library
and by setting aside a certain proportion
ate fund from the annual appropriation for
the support of the library.
1t is the belief of the BOARD that the
employees of the library should be pro-
tected as the teachers are now protected
by the present teachers pension system.
In brief. the financial plan is, that a
maximum pension of $500 per year shall be
paid upon retirement, which shall be COM
pulsory at the end Of forty years service,
but which may be ordered at the pleasure
of the board at any time after thirty years
service.
II an employe is suffering from III
health, or such disability as to incapaci-
| tate him from service, the board may re-
tire him at any time after twenty years
service, the pension then received TO bear
such proportion to $500 annually as the
number Of years that have been served
shall bear to thirty Should there be re-
instatement after retirement for disability,
then the pension ceases until final retire
ment, when all the years of active serv-
ice will be counted in fixing the amount
of future pension At all events, for an
employe to avail himself Of pension upon
retirement. twenty years of active service
shall have been given in the Omaha H.
brary.
