Actuaries' Figures Are
Wrong, Chairman Acorn
CHARGES. Citing Details

DIsputing the accuracy of fig
ures presented to Congress by Gov
eminent actuaries to show the esti-
mated cost of a hberalized retire
ment law, Robert H. Alcorn, chair
man Of the joint committee on re-
tirement, representing all organiza-
tons OF Federal employees. stated
today that the present operating
costs Of retirement are a direct con-
tradiction OF the actuaries' figures.
In making their estimates, Alcorn
declared, the actuaries have used
the computation methods Of the old
line insurance companies. which
operate for profit.
This, he said, necessarily makes
the estimated costs appear high.
The actuaries, however, have no
other method of computing costs,
have not tried to evolve another
method, and have therefore sub
mitted figures to Congress which
are inaccurate in fact and are
grossly unfair to half a million
Government employees who are look
ing for a new retirement law.
Alcorn declared that the figures
In excess of all probable costs as
TO make them practically worthless
to Congress in legislating on the
retirement question.
AS an instance. he pointed to the
fact that during the past five
years the present retirement law
has cost the Government a total
OF SO, 900, 900.
In the face Of these actual fig
ures, the actuaries have reported T.
Congress that the present law, over
a period of 80 years, would cost
the Government an average OF ST ;.
900 900 a year. Alcorn said:
"On the face of it, these figures
are wrong.
But they were prepared accord
ing to the old-iine insurance com
panies' methods of computing costs
and they are right according tc
that theory. however far they may
be from actual facts"
Using the same method of com
putation the actuaries have esti
mated that the Stanfield-Lehlbacf
bin OF 1924, which is now most
favored by retirement leaders IL
E Congress, would cost the Govern
ment approximately $4,000 900 Z
year.
Looking at. these figures in 9
cold, disinterested way" Alcorn said
1T is apparent that something i.
radically wrong with them.
1.-THE actuaries' figures on th'
present law are an absolute contra
diction OF what the law has cos
so far.
I'm view of the fact that they
have used the same erroneous
method OF computing the probabl,
coSts Of the proposed law it is al
most necessary TO conclude tina
they are wrong again"

DISCOVERY OF COLD DEPOSIT |s REPORTED
 FROM SOUTH AFRICA

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3. (P)-The Chemical division of the Department of Commerce has been informed by c. K. Donald, consul at Johannesburg, of the discovery of a new gold-bearing deposit in South Africa. The state ment of the department follows in full text:
 The discovery of what may prove to be a new gold-bearing area of con- siderable extent in the Transvaal was announced at a meeting of the Geolo- gical Society of South Africa. The deposit is on a farm in the Rusten- berg district and is an inclined sill of gold-bearing rock, assays of the ore in the middle part showing over six ounces to the ton over a thickness of four feet six inches. The ore-bearer has so far been traced over distance of 3OS feet, but probably extends farther in both directions. Similar rock is reported to occur under the same geological conditions on two neighboring farms, but this report has not as yet been confirmed

Announcement is made of the for nation of law partnership by B. O. Graham and E. P. Harwood at Cor dova under the firm name Graham &, Harwood and the dissolution of the law partnership heretofore existing between Walter H. Hodge and E. P. Harwood under the name Harwood & Hodge. MT. Graham is we'll known in CordOva having been attorney for the c. R. & N. w. Railway and other Kennecott Copper corporation inter- ests in Alaska for five and half years, from 1918 to 1923.
 MT. Harwood has served for the past two years as United States com missioner at Cordova and Mccarthy.
 The dissolution of the firm Harwood & Hodge resulted from a ruling of the attorney general of the United States made few days ago that MT. Hodge be prohibited from private law practice. This ruling revoked a prior ruling of the attorney general made last August permitting MT. Hodge to so engage in private practice.

ANOTHER OBJECTS
TO REZON|NG PLAN
Mrs. C. E. Hopkins Says
Home for JncurabIes Might
Have to Enforce Pact.

Objection to the proposed rezoning
of property contiguous to the Wash
ington Home for Incurables north OF
UPTON street from A restricted to A
area was voiced yesterday by Mrs.
Charlotte Everett Hopkins. The pro-
posed change will be acted on by the
Zoning Commission at an executive
session tomorrow morning In the Dis
trict Building.
From the point of view Of the
home, this would be a very undesir
able change, since anything that will
add to the traffic congestion and
noise in the neighborhood of the home
will tend to negative its aims" said
Mrs. Hopkins.
while the petitioners for the
change in coming disClaim any inten-
ton of erecting other than semi.
detached houses on the property, yet
If the change in coming IS made there
is no authority for refusal of a permit
to erect any kind of a building per
rnitted within the area, as was dem
onstrated in the case of the applica-
ton for a permit to establish an un'
dertakers headquarters in the resi-
dental section of Connecticut avenue,
zoned first commercial.
Covenants of builders. while they
may serve as a protection for the mo-
ment, are of doubtful expedienCy,
owing to mutations Of property OWL
ers, and the question arises whether
this is a class covenant that may run
with the land, in the face Of q coming
designation sanctioninE apartment
houses. In any event, the burden Of
enforcing the covenant would be
thrown upon the Home for Incur
ables and might at some future time
result in q needless expense to this
worthy institution.
THE solution would appear to be
in a retention of the restricted coming
of the contiguous property

MELLON TO TRAVEL
IN SECRET TO ROME
Hopes to Enjoy Village Fetes
While Avoiding Writers
and Politicians.
By the Associated Press.


DINARD, Brittany, France, July
24-Andrew w. Mellon, American
Secretary of the Treasury newly ar
rived in France, spent the second day
of his vacation quietly at this holiday
spot near the Normandie- Brittany
border line.
He was seemingly unmindful of the
presence of Benjamin Strong, gov
ernor of the Federal Reserve Bank;
Montague Norman, governor OF the
Bank OF England, within reach IN
London: DR.. Hjal1nar Schacht, presi-
dent of the Reichsbank, reported at
Dutch seaside resort, and Premier
Poincare, quoted as DESTROYS OF talk
ing with him informally regarding the
American French debts.
Secretary Mellon plans to motor to
Rome by easy stages through Brit
tany and the Pyrenees, but keeping
his itinerary secret in order to AVOID
newspaper men. camera men and poll
ticians. He may perhaps regale MN
self by attendance at number or
local religious fetes of a picturesque
character now being celebrated IN
Brittany.
Through Theodore Rousseau of the
Guaranty Trust Company, who accom-
panies him, MIR. Mellon let it be known
this evening that the one person he
was principally interested in seeing
in Europe was his daughter, Ailsa,
now I'm Rome with her husband, the
American vice consul, David Is. IL.
Bruce. He will not visit Paris until
he has seen the young couple in Italy,
and then, if NJ. Poincare wishes q con-
ference with him, he naturally would
not refuse.
Others with Secretary Mellon are
Clarence Mackay and Paul Mellon.
