TRUST WILL PENSION MEN
AMERICAN SUGAR COMPANY TO
CARE FOR ITS EMPLOYEES.
Plan Proposed to Make BenevOlence
an Economic Factor. Vast Pen
sion Fund of Steel Trust


NEW YORK.-The stockholders
of the American Sugar Refining Co.
will be called upon at the next annu-
al meeting to approve a plan to pro
vide pensions to the trusts 1900
officers and employees. Already re-
spectacle number Of large private
corporations in the United States
have found such a policy highly sue
cessful, and the American Sugar Re
fning Co. has decided to join their
ranks.
The directors have already work
ed out the details of the plan. They
would retire employees more than SIS
years old, or after 80 years Of SER
vice, and suggest as a nucleus Of
the pension fund an appropriation of
100000. No pension under the pro-
posed plan will exceed $4,000 year.
In the case of women the age limit is
set at 60 years and the term of ser
vice at 25 years. The amount of the
pension fund should be, the direct
ors think, "a sum annually equiva-
lent to 1 per cent of the average an
nual wage or salary during the 10
years preceding retirement multi
piled by the years of service"
The Pension Plans.
The plan provides for the appoint
ment of a pension committee to SUI
pervise and carry out this big under
taking with fairness to all concerned.
The eligibility list will include all
officers and employees of the Ameri-
can Refining Co. and all corporations
and companies owned or controlled
by it. Employees of absorbed concerns
may date their term of service from
the day they entered the employ of
the absorbed company.
Millions in Pensions.
A year and a half ago the United
States Steel Corporation established
pension fund of $S,00O,0O0 and
consolidated with the $4,O00,000
fund already created by Andrew Car
negie for the benefit of it's superan-
nuated and disabled employees. The
Steel Corporation has a payroll of
100000, and is therefore probably
the largest private distributor of pen
siOns in history.
The vast Pennsylvania Railroad
System is a close second, with over
$4,000 employees and an annual
pension appropriation of 100000.
The Pennsylvania is at the head of a
list of more than Is large railroads
which pension their employees.
