ATTACKs THE
PENSION LIST
Treasurer Macveigh Says II Does
the Country No Credit /

Philadelphia. April 10.-The Civil
war pension list was attacked by
Franklin Macveagh, secretary of the
treasury, in an. address at the open
ing session OF the 18th annual meet
ing OF the American Academy Of
Political and Social Science here Fri
day, when he advocated a civil
service pension for government en-
ployes.
We have a perfectly enormous
Civil war pension list, which is not a
credit TO U.S. he said. 1T never had
a scientific or just basis. although
a worthy motive gave il origin. Il
has lost its patriotic aspects. and has
become a political list, costing the
government about sl6o.O0o.oo0 per
year
Referring to superannuated civil
service employees. he said:
We cannot throw these old men
and women out into the streets. You
would not have us TO do it any more
than We will do IT, Therefore. we
keep them even after their efficiency
has deteriorated. So you can see
why we are losing money by paying
salaries for inefficlency in place of
having efficient employees and a retir-
ing list for those whose efficiency has
departed.

the unreasonable percentage of in
dustrial accidents. and said that
while he is a believer In individual

yidual cannot protect himself, and
the state must step in and protect
him.

speaker. ''Failure Of employers to
