CLERKS TO MEET HERE

a Bill in Congress.

Government clerks embraced ; in the
classified service will hold two-day con-
ference in Washington this week to con-
slider and discuss plans for the establish
ment Of a civil pension list for superan-
nuated clerks The conference will be
held next Friday and Saturday at the

ment of superannuated government en-
ployes''
President Wilson has given permission
for the holding Of the conference and the
discussion of plans for the establishment
Of a clerks pension fund, and has fur
Their given permission to those at the
head Of the movement to prepare bill
for presentation to Congress. The Presi-
dent. however. warns the clerks against
any effort to influence Congress or to in
terfere with proper discipline in the claS-
sified service.
Hope to Unite Factions.
The call for the conference, has been
sent to all government clerks in the
United States, and it is hoped the meet
ing will result in bringing together the
two factions among the clerks. one OF
which advocates a pension paid wholly
by the government, while the other sup
ports the plan for a contributory pension
fund, raised either wholly or in the larger
part through assessments on the salaries
of civil service employees.
Advices received in Washington indi-
cate that several hundred representa-
tives of government clerks will come to
Washington for the twO-day session. A
delegation of twenty-five will be here
from New York. parties Of fifteen are
coming from Philadelphia and from Bos-
ton, the same number from Baltimore.
twenty-five from Chicago. while delega-
tions are expected from Cincinnati.
Louisville, indianapolis. st. Louis. Oma-
ha and as far west as San Francisco.
The official call for the national con-
ference, issued February g. urges the
organization in each city where there is
sufficient number of civil Service EN-
ployes of local association. These To-
Gals are urged to perfect permanent
Organization, elect officers and send dele
gates to the conference to be held here
this week. The call further urges that
such locals throughout the country col
lect dues and forward certain portion
to Washington, i'm the form of per capita
annual dues, to defray the expenses of
the organization in this city that is at
the head of the general movement. Re-
sponses to the call, it was stated today,
indicate that the suggestion has been
widely adopted. President Wilson in his
letter to Temporary Secretary O'Don0-
ghue sanctions the plans Of forming locals
and collecting dues for the purpose Of
defraying necessary expenses.
