PORTIA PLEADS
FOR OLD j. s.
employees
Mrs. WorreII Asks Congress to
Increase Civil Service Re-
tirement Annuities.

A plea for better compensation,
and for a readjustment Of the re-
tirement laws governing Federal
employees, was made today before
the joint committee Of the House
and Senate Civil Service Committee
by Mrs. Margaret Hopkins Worrell,
an attorney in the Department Of
the Interior.
Claiming that she represented
oyer 5000 Federal employees, Mrs.
Worrell said that she sought by
their request to have the annuity
increase amount to 500 year, to
have the retirement age optional
at sixty years of age and to have
retirement optional after thirty
years service.
"As the law now stands the an
nuity is inadequate to meet living
expenses after retirement, causing
great suffering, many deaths and
some suicides among old and faith.
full employees Of the Government, ;,
Mrs. Worrell declared.

from, Russia because Of his Nih1list
1Socialist) principles. He lived q
great part Of his life in France ana
Switzerland He was living IN
Switzerland during the World War.
In 1917, when the Russian govern
ment was tottering, Germany al
lowed Lenine and few colleagues
to pass through the country IN
sealed train. At that time the Gar
Nicholas, had been overthroWn.
Alexander kerensky was in power
and Russia was still waging war
against Germany.
But the councils" in the army
and navy had weakened their
strength and Germany saw chance
for a bloodless coup.
Lenine and his adherents arrived
from Switzerland about the same
time that Trotsky arrived from the
United States They started their
Red revolution in Petrograd and,
after bloody fighting the Moderates
under Kerensky were put down.
Lenine and Trotsky came into
power.
Made Peace.
The following year u910 they
negotiated a treaty Of peace with
Germany at Brest-Litovsk. This
treaty was bitterly denounced by
the allies and later by the Rus
| slams themselves, but they abided
! by 1t and from that time on Russia
ceased to be a factor in the world
| war.
Lenine put George Tcthitcherin
in power as Peoples Commissar
for foreign affairs foreign minister)
post he still holds. The first
three years of the Soviet regime
was marked by internal warfare
and foreign invasion. The United
! States, France, Great Britain
Japan, Rumania and Poland united
| in making war against Russia, but
| it was like trying to walk through
gigantic feather bed. One by one,
the invasions and rebellions were
crushed, leavin Lenine secure at
Moscow.
But the strain of his position told
upon his health. At first Lenine
took frequent vacations. They be-
came longer until finally he had
to give up power altogether.
Foreign statesmen united in ad-
mitting that Lenine was not only
one of the most spectacular" figures
Europe has produced in the past
century, but one OF the most power
full. From his retreat in the Krem-
lin he issued orders that were
obeved by the "proletariat" not only
in his own country but in foreign
lands as well. He had become al.
most myth when his death was
announced today.
Suffered Great Agony.
Physicians said Lenin's death fol-
lowed paralysis Of the brain center
controlling the breathing organs. He
suffered great agony before he died,
but bore his suffefings stoically.
For some time it was not really
known by the populace at large that
Lenin was dead. While flags were
placed at half-mast many persons
thought this was in memory Of the
fallen heroes of the red revolution.
