Present Pay on Retirement
Is Held Inadequate by
Memb ers of Cabinet

Washington, Jan. 26.-Increased
annuities for the 1O,540 retired gov
eminent employees are favored by
the Presidents cabinet Secretary
work said today in letter to the
Senate committee on Civil Service
urging legislation at the present ses.
sion Of Congress to relieve what the
Secretary described as actual dis
tress existing in many cases of un-
der paid federal annuitants.
Members of the Cabinet hope
Congress at. the present session will
come to the assistance Of retired fed
eral workers by increasing their an
nuities under the retirement law,
said the Secretary. "The average an
nual rate paid annuitants under the
present law is $546.3O. About one
third the total of 1O,540 annuitants
received a maximum of $72O; almost
another third receive less than $432
while the lowest annuity now being
paid is $1,000 per annum.
"The retirement fund from which
these annuities are being paid has
been created by deductions withheld
from the salaries of the employees
themselves for this purpose. 1t is
their own money.
"More liberal retirement annuities
would relieve actual distress exist
ing in many cases and for humani
tartan reasons, if for no other, the
government should provide more
suitable retirement pay than the pre-.
sent annuity"

COMPLETE NEW
n. D. BUILDING
Bookstacks and General

Memorial Building Asked

For the fourth session of the state
Legislature, bill has been introduced
making an appropriation for the
Liberty Memorial Building on the
state capitol grounds. The fourth
appropriation bill came in the State
Senate late Saturday from the ap-
preparations committee, providing
for $65,230 for completion of build
ing and furnishings, and $4,000 ad-
ditional was carried in the bill for a
new generator for the state capitol
power house.
The original appropriation for the
Liberty Memorial Building, which
houses the Adjutant- Generals office,
state Libraries and some other cap
itol offices and was designed to be
a memorial to the veterans Of the
World War, was 100000. A subsc-
quent legislature appropriated $780,
600 additional, $115,O00 more was
added two years ago, and the pres
ent bill would make the complete
cost of the building $48O,23O.
The new appropriation bill would
give $4,000 for erecting steel news
paper stacks for the State Historical
Society rooms, $4,000 for museum
cases and money to finish the third
floor, install an elevator and COM
plete other work which could not be
finished in the appropriation avail
able.

Nine senator's voted against the bill.
Senator Fleckton, Ward county,
voted against the appropriation of
$4,000 for the children's department
of the board of administration. In
explaining his vote, he, said he OPP
posed the measure because an ex-
cessive salary of $4,000 year and
$4,000 year expenses was provided
for the director, who is Miss Hen
rictta Lund.

Two Bismarck
Men Voted in
Super Senate

Henry j. Duemeland and Har-
old Shaft of Bismarck have
achieved an unusual honor. They
have been voted honorary mem
bers of the "Super Senate" the
new auxiliary body to the leg
islature, made up of employees
of the Senate, state employees
and newspaper men.
Mr.. Duemeland was made an
honorary member because he
proved "good sport" by organ
izing the little band with pecu-
liar musical instruments that
entertained at the "Super-Sen-
ate" gridiron session and Mr..
Shaft because he drew up the in
junction under which the men,
bers of the "Super Senate"
sought to halt the organization
of the third House."

holders Of collateral assets have TAX
en- all the best paper, leaving in the
bank only worthless paper, thus
leaving the depositor holding the
sack. My bill regulating pledging of
the assets of--banks will, If passed,
protect the deposits in great mea-
sure from loss and will be re-
stricting or restraining influence on
a banks tendency toward making an
unsafe loan; this for the reason that
when bank cannot pledge more than
from thirty to 40 20 of its assets
(other than real estate, real estate
loans or loans secured by warehouse
receipts, which items are exempted
from the Act) they must conduct
their business on a much more con-
sentative basis than they have done
in the past and further when they
are restricted to pledging not more
than $1.25 of assets for each $1.O0
borrowed, they will have to sec that
they have much better class Of pa
per than most of the banks now
have. also advocate, as in my 9TH
err bill, compelling owners of bank
actually of some value to depositors
stock to make their double liability
and other creditors for whose pro-
lection the double liability of bank
stockholders law was enacted. The
records Of the Receiver of Closed
Banks shows that so far, that law
is a joke. Only little more than
100000 of this liability. has been
collected from stockholders in 1877
closed banks in which their legal
liability is over $3,OO0,OOO. The law
I have introduced would require all
state bank stockholders to deposit
with the State Treasurer, North Da-
kota or United States bonds to the
par value of their stock, and pro-
vides means of easy yearly pay
ments for stockholders in banks al
ready organized.
81 have received many letters from
bankers over the state commencing
and advocating the passage of these
measures and it does not seem to me
possible that the Legislature, if they
know the wishes of their constituents
as I know mine, will oppose the
principles involved in these proposed
laws"

Bankers Attitude
Many bankers see some good and
some bad in the proposed banking
legislation. Spokesman before the
Senate committee have declared that
they desire to see safeguards thrown
around the banks Of the state, but
it was asserted by, bankers that the
Ingcrson program would throttle
private banking in the state. drive
state banks out Of business and
cause others to become national
banks. Senator Ingerson has de-
clared frankly that he believes too
free extension of credit has been a
curse to the farmers Of North Dako-
ia. he would greatly restrict the Dor
rowing and loaning power of farm
ers and banks, respectively, and has
said that the situation might even
tually result in the. necessity for
branch banks of the state. Senator
Ingerson two years ago proposed
branch banking by the Bank Of North
Dakota.
Other Measures
