TEACHERS PENSIONS

Are pensions in general Wise!
Should a state pension its workers?
Should it pay pensions to teachers
any more than to any other class Of
employees?
These are question discussed in
bulletin just issued by the United
States bureau of education. The inn
mediate purpose of the bulletin is to
describe the pension systems of Great
Britain. but in the course of the
study Raymond w. Sizes, the author.
takes occasion to discuss the princi-
pies underlying all pensions, and es-
pecially teachers pensions in the
United States.
Teachers pensions and pension sys-
TENS. according to DR.. Sizes, repre-
sent one phase Of what has become a
universal movement among civilized
peoples-a movement to dispose Of
the superannuated and disabled indi-
vidual and to rob old age Of its eco
nomic terrors." Pensions for school
teachers, he points out, have existed
in Germany in some form or other for
two or three centuries, and in other
European countries for the better part
of a century or more. On the con
tinent the benefits of teachers pen
sions have often been extended to in
clude widows and orphans of teachers
I'm Scotland comprehensive system
has been developed, based on scienti
Efc insurance principles, which DR.
/ Sizes considers of special value for tht
United States.
/ Whether pensions shall be support
ed in whole or in part by the state
OF whether they shall be financed en-
tireIy by the teachers themselves, Il
problem that has been solved dif
ferently in different countries. In
Germany the state finances the en-
tire plan, the teachers making nj
contributions whatsoever. In France
the teachers are heavily assessed t
keep the pension system going. Il
the United States the tendency is t
ask small contributions from tn
teachers. AS a permanent arrange
; ment DR.. sizes favors the German pla
not because he thinks it any NOR
generous to the teachers, but becaus
t he considers it better business 70
: the state to finance and manage tn
: system itself. He shows that in an
! event the burden is ultimately shift
: ed to the teachers.
y While admitting, therefore, that CO..
q tributions may be necessary to star
/ substantial pension system, he b.
> lieyes they should be discontinued a
soon as possible. In his opinion cor
tributions from teachers as a permaT
ent feature not only add nothing t
the effectiveness of a pension plar
but they ''introduce needless complies
| ity, they are a source Of constant il
ritation and misunderstanding an
they are responsible for vas
amount of unnecessary bookkeeping
and other clerical work" Dr.. Sic
concludes with a strong recommends
ton for a non-contributory pension
system for American teachers.

MRS PANKHURsT IN

There is no reason to fear tha
Mrs. Pankhurst viii try to kidnap any
of our American statesmen or set fire
to the capitol, now that she has beer
admitted in defiance of the plain Law
of the land. Neither is there an!
reason to believe that she came her
for any such sanguinary or spectacul
ar purpose. But the action Of thC
president in setting aside the law il
her behalf is unwise, if for no other
reason than because it sets a bad pre-
cedent The hysterical and illconsid-
ed protests against her exclusion
should have had no weight with the
officials to whom an appeal was taken
from the ecision Of the immigration
board. The immigration officials de-
cided that a foreign person who has
been duly convicted of felony is an
undesirable alien No other decision
was possible and there was no good
excuse for setting it aside.
The most vicious criminal in the
world might come here with laudable
intentions. Mrs. Pankhurst is not
guilty Of immortality Of the kind
usually so designated, she is not a
thief or confidence woman, coun-
terfeiter or a person likely to de-
bauch the morals of the country. No
such issue had to be decided. But
the very persons who flooded the
mails, the newspapers and the tele-
graph offices with protests in her be
half would have flooded them with
protests Of the opposite character ifI
any man convicted of brazenly burn
ing public property and endangering
the lives Of thousands Of innocent
people had been admitted. In the
eyes Of conservative citizens who re-
gard with favor the claims Of Ameri-
can women to the ballot, some Ameri-
can women have displayed poor iudg-
ment in asking that the law be set
aside and pernicious precedents es-
tablished in behalf Of woman who
stands convicted Of acts which are
crimes III any civilized country In
the world. Ha-dly worse than this
attitude Of these American women,
which only furnishes arguments to
their opponents, is the weakness of
the president IN Welding to their pro
tests mere is nothing wholesome
and v-'s h'a that Mrs. Panlhurst can
tell the women Of America which
they do rot already know. Her ex
ample is Efficiently pernicious and
her precepts can hardly be expected
to palliate it. The country will suf
fer no injury from her visit save th'
injury which is always inflicted
when special favors are granted a
