PLACED ON "RETIRED LIST"
Senator Penrose Proposes Plan for
Post Office Clerks.
SCHEME MAY BE EXTENDED
Suggestion That the Government
Should Follow the Example of
Big Corporations.

The latest suggestion for n plan for the
retirement of superannuated government
employees comes from Senator Pcnrose of
Pennsylvania. who Yesterday afternoon,
proposed in the Senate a system for the
benefit of veteran workers in the post
offices of the country.
After twenty-five years of service, it is
proposed. a post office elnpoye who has
become incapa citate1 by approximation
may be granted an indefinite leave of alb
sence with pay at the rate of $500 per
year. In the case OF special stress of
business in the handling of mail the
Postmaster General is to have power to
require the retired employees to woI
until the emergency is passed.
Senator Penrose is one of the recent
converts to the policy of civil service re-
tirement. He believes the examples
set by big corporations in retiring
their faithfuI employees in their old
age on partial pay is a good one for
Uncle Sam to follow. He differs from
some of those urging retirement in that
he thinks the pay should he straight
out pension paid by the government
rather than a paying back of small com
pulsOry contributions made each month
during the years of active work. Mr..
Penrose has introduced a bill along that
line. applying to all civil service en-
ployes.
