PENSIONS FOR
WAGE FARMERS
Socialist Congressman Elect
Will Introduce Bill in
Congress
AMOUNT REQUIRED WOULD
BE BAGATELLE, He SAYS

BY United Press Leased Special Wire
MILWAUKEE. Jan. 21.-An old age
Government pension for aged work
ers, the ideal of the Socialist. may be-
come a reality if a bill which Con-
gressman Victor l.. Berger, the first
Socialist ever elected to that high post
has framed, is enacted into law. Ber-
ger expects to introduce his pension
plan bill Immediately after he takes
his seat in Congress.
Congressman-elect Berger thus out
lines his plans for the United Press;
We have in our platform a plank
which reads as follows:
ITO enact law granting 70 every
wage Garner over sixty years Of age
who has earned less than $1,000 a year,
and has been a citizen Of the United
States for 16 years, pension OF not
less than s12 a month during the rest
of his or her life
One of the first bills to be intro
duced is the pension bill.
The term wage Garner means a wo-
man as we'll as a man. II denotes any
person working for wages, whether a
clerk. stenographer, hired girl, wash
erman or railroad engineer type setter
or bookkeeper.
The fundamental question as to who
is to foot the bills? is a question which
is easily answered Why, of course,
the workman will foot the bills. They
are raising many thousand millions
every year for the capitalists. for the
officials, for the army and navy and
for innumerable other things. They
ought to be able TO get back at least
a little share Of all that for them
selves. as in an old age pension.
Under our plan, there will be not
quite a million men and women re-
ceiving a pension of s144 a year
1 That would amount TO about S144,000,'
900 a year-a mere bagetelle FOL
/ Uncle Sam, who spent S155,91l,10l
for the army in 1910 and $12S,17S.71I

So much for the tragedy itself. AS
to what followed conjecture still re-
mains. To shield herself from re-
sponsibility, Mrs. Caroline B. Martin
the mother. is believed to have sought
TO make suicide the explanation. II
is known that Ocey had contemplated
taking her own life.
Primarily the occasion today was q
hearing by Judge Ten Eyck, of coun-

Company Wins In Note Case

b.
The Kentucky Court of Appeals has
decided in an important case that pol
icy of fire insurance is invalidated by
the failure to pay notes accepted in
payment Of the premium. The house
of G. G. Peden, of Hopkinsville, was
insured in the Continental, giving his
mates for the premium. The contract
with him provided that if the notes
were not paid at maturity the policy
would be void. A note fell due Sep.
tember l, 1909, and was not paid. On
September 8, Peden's house burned.
The company refused to pay and the
court of appeals. reversing the judg-
ment of the lower courts. uphoids the
insurance company in its decision. At
lanta Herald.
Any insu ance policy is good as long
as the insurer meets his obligation to
the company and keeps the premiums
paid up.
