WILL Do AWAY
WITH PENSIONS
FOR TEACHERS

NEW YORK. July 5.-The Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement of
Teaching made public today a plan of
far-reaching scope for insurance and
annuities for college professors in the
United States and Canada.
The pension system which the Foun-
dation adopted when it was established
ten years ago, and which has consisted
largely in the granting of retiring al
lowances to aged professors in certain
colleges, has. it is frankly declared,
been found unsound," and it is pro-
posed to do away with il.
The faults of the present system and
the features of the new plan were set
forth in report by DR. Henry S.
Pritchett, president of the Foundation,
which was given out today. While the
new plan has not yet been adopted, the
report in favor of ii has been issued
with the fun authority of the trustees
of the Foundation, and some time dur
ing the year they VIII consider the
question of putting the scheme into
practice
The new plan proposed a system of
term insurance for teachers to the age
Of 60 or later. followed by an annuity
for life, accumulated by contributions
from the teachers and their respective
institutions. On its part, the Founda-
ton proposes to use its entire income
for the maintenance and development
of the system, contributing toward
protection of teachers against disabil-
ity. guaranteeing pensions for widows,
paying all expenses of administration
and securing a good rate of interest
on all accumulations.
THE primary object" says the re-
port. lis to construct relief system
available to the great body of college
teachers"
