Four weeks ago l printed an advertisement headed

that made very plain the fact that anything that promised
so very much in profit necessarily entaled some risk OF

summary of situation.

This is Mr.. Bruere's summary of the
situation:
Under the present plan the city will
have to contribute TO meet its obliga-
ross f1r the existing pension lists and
the prospective pensioners now on the
teaching force alone more than $780,
900. 900 in the period of about sixty
years.
'~The city has contributed TO the PEN
sion fund to December 81. 1914,
ss,5lO.2SO.9t: the teachers contribu-
tions have aggregated s2.222.62t.9s.
T h fund has from the beginning
been destined to Insolvency by reason
Of It's plan, financing and method Of
administration. The practice OF pay
ing absence salary deductions into the
fund and then later withdrawing re-
funds for excused absences has created
financial instability and promoted
speculative management OF the whole
retirement problem-a problem calling
for the most careful and conscientious
stewardship.
"Slnce 1910 an annual deficit has &C.
CURED in the fund n the present
crisis has been deferred only by de-
fsrring the payment OF refunds for alb
sence deductions. thus merely putting
into the future the insolvency which was
apparent our years ago. In this yea

the fund. refunds in the amount Of
sl60,65S.73 were made. II would not
nave been unprecedented for the board
TO have withheld making these refunds.
nus carrying the fur practically
through the year. But such postpone
ment would merely have put OFF the
present crisis for a few months at best.

TEACHERS PENSIONS
REMEDY PROPOSED
chamberlain Bruere Suggests
That Some of Them Be

public school teachers retired since
1912 on pensions which they supposed
would be paid for the rest of their lives
o,d who are stirl able to do the least
oy,c,lng work will have to go back to

r,de hy Chamberlain Bruere In n re-
MIR, made public yesterday Is adopted.
The fact that the teachers retirement
r,rd il bankrupt and Comptroller Prem
dnrsast's charge that the methods Of the
BOARD Of Education were to blame were
prirted several days ago. Now Mr..
pruerc in behalf of the city's pension
commission. of which he IL v~ice-chair-
man and secretary, tells how the fund
was wrecked and suggests three alterna-
tive ways In which payments a he
continued until n new permanent pro-
sramme is adopted. which cannot Do un-
III the Legislature meets. These are
Mr.. Bruere's three remedies:
81, \ pro rata reduction In the exist
ing pensions. which We estimate will
amount TO about AZ per cent. for the
remaining five monthly payrolls for this
year.
go Restoration to active service OF
the least exacting character OF teachers
who have beer retired since 1912 and
who are still able to render service.
."3. Voluntary contribution by teachers
Of such additional sums as are sufficient
to provide for its maintenance until the
end OF the year, which contributions
might in part be refunded by the city
in the event Of the establishment OF the
new fund during the course of he com
ing year. Ii is estimated that an a
ditional contribution OF 2 per cent. OF
salaries during the remaining foul
months OF the year would be all thai
is necessary"
"The foregoing alternatives" say'
Mr.. Bruere. "all assume that no more
refunds for excused absences will b
made during the present year"

When she returned Mrs Poyser began
one OF her famous tongue lashings. In

dropped the mug. which broke into

You laugh at Aaron and Mrs. Poyser.

today to shift responsibility to some one
else. One man blames cussedness on
environment and says: Il was born In

pie lived in one room; my father died
when 1 was young, and my mother was
compelled to throw her unripe strength

street as the only playground. natur-
ally 1 took on easy low morals Of the

Now I will not say one word TO lessen
the enthusiasm for Improvement of the
physical and moral environment OF man
kind. l firmly believe environment has
great effect upon character believe
n society permits any considerable pro-
portion to live in foul. unlighted rooms,
where from eight to ten people live,
cook. eat and sleep, working year In
and year out from fourteen to fifteen
| hours every day; l believe II society
! allows deserving men TO stagger along
| with less than living wage; II society
permits shoulders OF widowed mother
hood to be forced down under indus
trial burdens and throws the unripe
strength of children into the hopper of
! corporate greed, to be ground up into
dividends, that society must share the
