correspondence OF The Associated Press J
MANILA, June 20. - The past
month has seer q rush of applications
from American employees for retire
nent from the insular government
SCI wee. The retirement low. passed
az inc last SosS ion OF the iusulat leg
,siature, provides that employees who
nave nave served the insular government
ior SIX years or more NAV retire and
receive in three equal annual install
mCrtS at least two-thirds of the an
nua! salary they enjoyed at the time
OF thelr retirement. The amount of
ms retirement fund increases with
length of service to the full amount
or years salary for those who have
served the government for ten years
or more.
All applications to be entitled to
ne benefit of this law must be in
the hands of the governors oneral by
the end OF the - month. This has
brought about the recent flood of ap-
pIcations, 1t seems safe 10 say that
by the end Of the month every Amer
can entitled to benefit by the retire
ment law will have filed an appli-
cation.

tion must be passed upon by both the
applicants immediate chief and the
governor general Nherc n man can

man who has no good reason for re-
tirine or the man whose services are
so valuable that the government
would be crippled nv his withdrawal,
cannot retire. The filing NJ his an

fits of the act whAn the government
decides It can spare him and he ex-
presses a desire to leave-hut until
