new PLAN FOR
PROFIT SHARING
Chicago Trust Company Will
Make Outright Distribution Of
Portion Of Earnings.
TO COME BEFORE DIVIDENDS
Three and one-HaIf Per Cent Net
Profits Set Aside for Distribution
Among Workers, Having Preference
Over Stockholders interests.

One Of the largest Of the Chicago
trust companies recently gave out de-
tails Of its new profit sharing plan.
Unlike many other plans, it pro-
vides for an outright distribution Of
q certain part Of profits to employees
and officers instead Of linking it up
as part of a thrift and savings sys-
tenn.
An outline Of the plan is as follows:
The bank is to set aside 81 per
e n of its net earnings before any
dividends are paid. This Is to be
distributed exclusively among en-
ployes other than officers.
In addition, q sum is to be taken
equal to one-fifth Of the surplus earn
ings after setting aside 8 per cent
of stockholders interest. This sum
Is to be split up: 40 per cent
among among employees not officers;
40 per cent among senior officers chief.
~ responsible for the production Of
business and the conservation and
management Of the bank ; 20 per cent
among other officers.
The basis on which the employees
fund and the officers fund will be
distributed takes into account length
OF service and also relative value Of
services rendered as indicated by the
pay roll, thus:
Fifty per cent of the fund Of each
group will be distributed to the Judi
vidual, according to the ratio of his
salary, to the total salary Of the group.
Thirty per cent Of the fund Of each
group will be distributed to each par.
ticipant in the ratio Of his salary null
tiplied by his years of service bears
to the total salaries multiplied by
years Of service.
The remaining 20 per cent Of each
fund will be given to employees who
have rendered special m%eritorious serv-
ice during the year.
The first distribution under the;
proft-sharing plan will take place New
Years day and 1t will be based on the
earnings for 1920. In addition, the
company will continue to conduct its
pension fund, its insurance plan and
Its employees savings and loan asso-

Senator Shields

What ever may be said oil
Senator Shields, we believe he is,
and has been, honest and sincere
in his stand on the League OF
Nations and all other questions in
which he has differed with the
President and the democratic adj
ministration.
There was, we believe, no pos
Sible motive of sinister kind that
could have induced Senator
Shields to take the stand he has.
He has given his reasons for tax
ing the stand he has, but notwith-
standing, he has been read out of
his party by the democrats of
Tennessee in convention assembl-
ed.
Former u. S. Senator James
B. Frazier, in addressing the con
vention, referred to Senator
Shields in the following language !
Il question no mans integrity. /
Every man has a right to follow
the dictates OF his own concienee
but as for me, | would follow my
own people il | had been in posi-
ton of some Senators OF | would

No representative can truly

sympathy with his constituents.
