Demand Legislatu L l a tur e
Straighten Out Tangle of
Two Systems

Commission Concludes There
Is No Justification for Main
tanning Double Benefits

Trenton, Feb. 3.-The Pension and
Retirement Fund Commission which was
appointed by the Legislature of 1918 has
submitted to the Legislature a report
on its investigation of the two retire.
ment systems now existing for the
teachers in the State of New Jersey.
1t is shown that the teachers retire
ment fund, supported by the teachers, is
insolvent. having a deficiency of about
slb,OOO,O00 and assets sufficient TO pay
only approximately twenty cents for
every dollar expended. and that It cannot
be made solvent by the contributions OF
It's members The thlrty-flve-year serv-
ice pension system, supported entirely by
the state. involves a liability of approxl-
mately S23,000.000 and is too burden
some for the State to maintain without
contributions from the teachers.
Having come to the conclusion that
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1919-02-03

the two systems should no longer con.
tinue to operate separately. and thet
there Is no justification for maintaining
the double benefits, the commission pro-
ceeded to frame bill providing tor
the gradual merger OF the two systems
into one sound system.
Provisions OF Proposed Bill
Membership in the proposed system
will be compulsory for all new appoint
ees and optional with teachers now IN
the service. Retirement will be op-
tional at fifty-two years of age or In
case of disability any time before that
age. provided the disabled teacher has
served ten years in the state.
The allowance Is calculated at the
rate of cne-seventieth of salary for each
year of service, including teaching
service rendered In other states up to
ten years and Is fixed at minimum
of $500 in case OF superannuation, and
$500, or 80 per cent of salary. in case
OF disability. In case OF resignation,
dismissal or death the contributions paid
In by the member will be refunded to
him or TO his estate just as in savings
bank together with compound interest
at per cent.
At the time Of retirement the mem
Der may exercise an option. lie may
convert the total reserve created by
his and the States contributions on his
account into a smaller retirement allow
ance, provided that in case OF death the
balance shall be paid to his estate Ia
the form OF an annuity or lump sum.

EFFICIENCY EXPERTS WRONG
Clergyman Says Wilson and Foch
Refute Old Age Theory

president Wilson's diplomatic trl-
umphs at the age Of s'xty-two are an
emphatic refutation Of the assertions
made by many so-called efficiency ex-
perts that mans best years Of achieve

day"
This statement was made yesterday by
the Rev. w. John Murray at the meet
ing .f the Divine Science Association at
the Bellevue-Stratford, Doctor Murray
also mentioned General Foch as SINH
lar example. and declared that ne ther
the President Of the United States nor
the French generalissimo could have
attained their respective emlnence at the
age Of thirty-five.
Success, he said, was decidedly more
mental than physical and that, therefore,
the man who had reached the half-en-
| tury mark was more probable to- see the
| fulfillment of his ambitions than q
younger man. This contingency. he said
depended upon the older man having led
