Chandler Favors Retirement.

CONGRESSMAN Chandler favored a re-
hrement pension plan because of the
Justice" there Is in such action. by
the Government.
El!I do not believe" he said. that the
Government owes anybody anything as
q matter OF gratuity. II the employee
OF the Government Is a sperdthrift or
an improvident fellow and fails to save
q portion OF his earnings. the Govern
ment Is not under obligation TO do any
thing for him In his old age provided
his compensation has been adequate"
Mr.. Chandler argued that the enact
Inent of retirement legislation would

!elation they wanted through co-opera-
ton.
He said he hoped the Government
would recognize retirement as an eco
nomical principle. and he suggested that
lessons be taken from the Pennsylvania
railroad and the Ford plant. where re-
tirement plans have demonstrated that
they were an increasing force in efri-
cheney and administrative economy.
A minimum salary OF 81, 900 year was
advocated for Government clerks by
Congressman Smith, who favored a con-
tributory plan Of retirement and PEN
sion.
He cited the United States Soldiers
Home as one place that showed the ex-
cellence of a contributory plan OF PEN
sion. He said contributions from regu-
lar army men have made n fund OF 49,
100000. from the income of which the
home Is maintained
Senator Sterling said he believed the
retirement of old employees OF the Gov

all.
