PENSIONS AND INSURANCE
FOR COLLEGE TEACHERS
Plan Outlined by President of Car
negie Foundation Branch in Bull
letin Issued To-day.

"A comprehensive plan of insurance
and annuities for college teachers" is
outlined by Henry S. Pritchett, presi-
dent of the Carnegie Foundation for
the Advancement of Teaching, in a
bulletin issued by the institution today.
1t deals with the entire proposition of
pensions and insurance for college
professors in detail
A summary of the bulletin says, in
part:
Ten years of experience has con-
WINGED the foundation that its present
pension system. together with every
other teachers pension system in the
country. is unsound, and the plan now
set forth is recommended instead
THE faults of the present system are
frankly outlined. 1t Is available for
only limited number of universities
and colleges. 1t restricts the migration
of teachers from one Institution to an
other. 1t has been considered part of
the teachers compensation, and a sub
stitute for increased salary 1t has re-
suited in the adoption by numerous
institutions of fixed age for retire
ment. which is unfortunate 1t pro-
vides no protection for the teacher
until he has been professor for TWEEN
ty-f1ve years A system of free pen
s1ons relieves both the teacher and
his institution from an economic and a
moral responsibility No pension svs-
tenn which is based, as practically all
present systems are, upon future SAL
aries. can calculate it's future obliga-
tions or place them upon a contractuaI
basis.
Instead of the present system of the
foundation, which is limited in these
ways. the plan proposes a system of
term insurance to the age of sixty-five
or later. followed by an annuity for
life, accumulated by contributions from
the teacher and his institution The
foundation will contribute protection
against disability, and guarantee pen
sions for widows, a good rate of in
terest on all accumulations, and all ex-
penses of administration, using its en-
tire income, s at present, for the main
tenance and development of the system.
This plan may be extended to a larger
number of institutions than the
seventy-three now associated with the
foundation. it will be conducted under
the scrutiny of the state banking and
insurance departments, the teachers
will participate in its direction, and
each contributor will have a contract
guaranteeing definite benefits"

The Summer Cold

In winter, when you catch
cold, it seems the sane and proper
thing; with hosts of coughers
YOU'RE enrolled, and you can
dance and smile and sing. The
man who isn't barking then, who
doesn't sneeze and wheeze and
vip, can't hope to class with other
men who revel in the joys OF
grip. But when you have
summer cold, and cough a streak
the long day through, you suffer
asonies untold, and there's no
sympathy for you. You sit and
suffer in your fiat, and feel like
some back number dame, who
wears around a last years hat,
and therefore can't get in the
game. And cen the druggist
who'll dispense his cures and
collar your doubloon, will hint
that there is little sense in hav-
ing colds along in June. The
doctor, who in. winter days,
would soothe you. with a kindly
smile, remarks he's tired of heal
ing Jaws who have diseases out OF
style. The man who has sum-
mer cold no comfort finds be-
meath the sky; if for a nickel he
were sold, he'd think the price
was rather high.
