REWARD FOR
BILLY LAIST
is IN SIGHT
Senate Gets Bill Authorizing
Administrative Board to Re.
tire Him on Pension

AS reward for his 80 consecutive
years Of service as custodian Of the
state capitol building, friends Of
William Laist have started legisla-
tive action to see that he is taken
care Of for the remainder of his life.
A bill has been introduced by the
senate state affairs committee that
authorizes the state board Of admin
lstration to contract for LASTS serv-
ices for the remainder of his life,
and to set a time when he shall be
retired on pension.
The bill follows recommendations
made by the eighteenth Legislative
assembly four years ago.
At that time a resolution was
adopted that the assembly extend its
thanks and appreciation to Laist for
his then more than IS years Of serv-
ice, ID recommended ito the COM
ing sessions of the legislative as
sembly that when he shall have
served the state for 80 years, some
provision be made to pension or
otherwise permanently reward him to
the end that at the termination Of his
employment he be dismissed by his
master, the state, with admonition of
the Master of old: well done, thou
good and faithful servant"
Provides For Vacation
The present bill provides that he
shall also be given an annual vaca-
tion.
1t states that Laist "has continu cd
to serve the state with answering
loyalty and has now served the state
in all for a period of 81 years."
1t continues to the effect that he
has rendered the state many serv-
ices outside the scope Of his regular
employment for which no compensa-
tion has been given" and concludes
with the statement that 1T is high
~ desirable that he be retained in
his present position as long as pos
Sible."
