NEW RETIREMENT
BILL INTRODUCED
Sacket Measure Would Make
All Civil Service Employees
Pay SO a Month.

A new plan for the retirement Of
civil service employees. differing in
many respects from the legislation
already considered by Senate and
House committees, is contained in
bill introduced in the Senate today by
Senator Sackett of Kentucky.
The bills being given most serious
consideration by the committees, as
well as the existing law, provide for
the payment by the employe into the
retirement fund of a fixed percentage
OF his or her salary. The Sackett BILL
however. fixes So per month as the
contribution to be made by all en-
ployes entitled to retirement.
The other pending measure fixes
n general rule for computing the
amount of annuity by multiplying
the salary for the past five years
by the number of years OF service,
and dividing the result by a definite
figure. Senator Sackett's bill con-
tainS a detailed table showing in dol
lars what each employe would re-
ceive, according to his length of serv-
ice. A study of this table shows that
the maximum annuity would be 81 ,54S
per year at the age of 20 after so
years of service. At the age of so
and with so years of service the
table shows an annuity of 81 ,092.
The Sackett bill. like the other meas
ureS. would permit optional retirement
after 80 years of service and stipu-
lateS that automatic retirement would
take place at the age of 20 after 10
years of service for clerks. at 65 for
mechanics and letter carriers, and at
GO for railway postal clerks. This bill
also continues the provision of exist
ing law allowing extensions of time
to employees who are regarded as eX
ceptionally efficient by department
heads. The new plan was referred to
the civil service committee, which 10
days ago held an extensive hearing
with the House committee on the en-
tire subject OF liberalizing the retire
ment law.

Blease in Senate
Again Takes Whack
At Embassy Liquor

While delivering final argu-
ment against the World Court in
the Senate late yesterday, Senator
Blease of South Carolina again
made reference to the granting of
immunity from the prohibition law
to diplomats and read to the Sen
ate newspaper account Of
young woman who was taken to
Traffic Court here a few days ago,
clad in a bathing suit and pa
jamas, after an automobile collision
with a lamppost.
The Senator declared that the
girls sister IS reported to have
told police that they had been
celebrating on embassy refresh
ments.'
This is a part of the World
Court right under your own eyes"
he continued. Foreigners are VIC
lating the law day by day right
here and yet we are standing here
to go into an alliance with them"

Mrs. Sarah Elizabeth Wood

Sarah Elizabeth Kinsey was the
daughter of James II. and Esther
Mcmillan Rinsey. and was born
May 13, 1853. Early in life she
united with the Church of Christ at
Antioch, but later transferred her
membership to the VI. P. church at
Todds, near which she lived for SO
years. She was twice married-in
1878 to Joseph Carr, who died in
1892, and in 1896 to Addison Wood
who survives, as do two sisters, IL
grandchildren and the following
sons and daughters: Nora Carr of
the home; A. T. Carr of Corning;
Chas. A. Carr of Roseville; Lulu
Carr Ross Of Columbus; Orren j.
Carr of Jewett; Joeina Carr Dunn of
McConnelsville, and Mabel Wood
Hayes OF Stockport, o. Reared in
home that reflected the broad
gauge mind of an exceptionally in
tellectual father, and herself being
endowed with these same qualities,
she always took a keen interest in
the moral, educational and political
problems of her community and
state, ever evincing that same
breadth of vision and grasp of stu
ati4ns that found some expression
in her years of practical leadership
of the Todds grange. The calibre of
that intellect and the real beauty of
her character, probably found ex-
preston best in her relations with
her children. No ordeal was too Sc
