AGED MINISTER'S TO BE PENSIONED
IS Protestant Denominations Have S116,O00,OO0 on Hand

Washington. Oct %. - Nearly tS2,o0o Protestant preachers in the United States are now singing q glad hymn of praise.
 Not to the tune of golden harps, either. but to the clank of silver dollars.
 It has long been an accepted fact that school teachers, ciginecrs, po- licemen, and anyone else who work = cd for long period in the service of a particular corporation or or ganization should be pensioned. Now churches have decided that provision should be made so that ministers can live comfortably in old age.
 Disciples of Christ, Episcopali- an. Presbyterian, Congregational, Churches have lately presented to practical plan of action, according to which ministers, assisted by their churches, will invest a cer- tan small percentage of their sal aries in a pension fund every month.
 Eighteen of the larger Protest ant religious bodies now have ap- proximately $116. 100000 in assets with which to conduct actuarial pension systems, endowment sys- tcms and the older forms of min isterial relief Upwards of $9,0o0,o00 is being paid annually to nearly 2S,G00 beneficiarics.
 Leading laymen have decided that too frequently ministers were compelled to move into their man. sions in the sky straight from poor houses or old peoples homes. There fore, the comforting mottoes which stated resignedly that one should take no thought of the morrow be- cause the Lord would provide are leaving a bare space on parsonage walls.
 Pathetic tales of aged ministers who had no where to lay their heads or who became dependents because of their mcager salaries are responsible for the pension fund.
 To the Episcopal church goes the distinction of having first es- abolished an actuarial pension sys- tenn by which each clergyman, or his widow, would be paid an annuity commensurate with his average sal

Darlington, Eng, Oct. % lI1 = The narrowing margin between luxurious travel by sea and luXuri- ous travel by air seems to have been whittlcd down to matter of com- paratiye privacy,
 One still can have more privacy at sea than on a big air liner like the new British R-101-but that, q stroll through the huge liner here suggests, is about all that is lacking Except, perhaps a swimming pool
 The two passenger decks are con- tained in the outer envelope. Even the control car, although it projects below the keel of the ship, is as easily accessible from the upper deck as the ground floor of a house is from the upper stories.
 Only the "pownr eggs" contain ing the five 5S5 horsepower Diesel engines are isolated from the in terior of the ship.

 Matches, in view of the 5000, 000 cubic feet of hydrogen in this giant ship, are strictly banned, Yet no passenger need suffer for lack of a smoke. A freproof smoking room about the size of an average living room is provided. Electric lighters are used instead of matches.
 The cheery dining salon is an- other bright spot for the air traveller It seats 50 persons and through q great, slanting window the passen- gers can view the landscape gliding by far below them.
 The largest public room on the ship is the lounge, which is SO feet long and 32 feet wide, with a polished floor of light plywood for dancing, and writing tables next to the walls for those who want to write postcards in the clouds.
 On each side of the lounge is a promenade deck, with a rail on which passengers can lean as they look out and down through the great windows in the ships outer covering.
 The ship has a heating system using the radiators of the five en- zines.

 Percentages of their salary which ministers pay to the fund vary. When the Methodist goal is reached the younger clergy will be asked to give one per cent of their salaries toward this fund. Presbyterian min isters will be asked to contribute two and one-half per cent of their salaries while their individual churches will give seven and one half per cent of the salary. In the Congregational group the minister and the church he serves together will pay five per cent of the yearly salary as an investment in future rewards, but each church is priv ilcged to increase it's percentage.

 The Evangelical church is con- | ducting a campaign to increase it's 1 fund for ministerial pensions to S2,000,000 by October, 1880. Its ministers are required to contribute a state yearly amount as dues to fund which, in turn, when they are old, will give them quarterly payments according to the number of years they have served.
 The United Brethren church taxes it's clergy q standard amount, also, regardless of salary received. Re former church ministerial relief, which follows the pension plan, is supported by monthly payments, and the Universalist church se- cures it's pension fund through church quotas, thus placing the bur den on the congregation instead of the local minister.

Christ pension fund, explains that if all ministers were not more than 30, and all were starting their mln- istry today, no accrued liabilities fund would be ne eeded, as the regu- lar monthly payments based on each minister's salary would be suf- ficient to carry the pension system in perpetuity But the older min isters must be taken care of.
 Under the plan now before Chris ton churches for adoption" says Mr. Warren, leach minister who en- rolls agrees to pay 3 1-2 per cent of his annual salary in monthly in stallments. His church agrees to pay the equivalent of 8 per cent of his salary. These payments win earn In 8 years a pension equal ,o one- half of the minister's average sal ary, with approximately smaller or larger pensions for service under or over 35 years, and with substantial benefits to widows and minor chil- dren.
 Each month a minister will have earned a definite sum which can never be taken away from him. Mathematically, this sum is one seventieth of the annual salary paid to a minister, which, of course, Is equal to one-half of his average sal ary over a 35-year period"
 The Northern Presbyternian church met the increasing demand for social justice towards it's min- istry by completing a campaign for s15,oO0,00O in 1927. This provides for the accrued liabilities among it's older pastors and establishes an actuarial pension system.
 Congregationalists and Northern Baptists several years ago likewise raised funds with which to provide retirement annuities, the former church having received about S6,o0o,000 and the latter s7,0O0,0O0. Unlike the actuarial systems of Disciples of Christ, Episcopalians and Presbyterains. however, Con- gregationalists and Baptists do not contribute a stated sum each month for pastors pensions but operate under a semi-endowment plan. The Northern Baptist system which has been in operation for 1 C years, permits each minister an allowance at retirement age. It is paid monthly, quarterly or yearly. Southern Baptist churches, fol the past several years, have also been at work on d definite pension 1 plan for their clergy.
 Still another type of pension | system is used by the Methodists who operate by separate confer
 ences, with supplemental income i from the general conference. It is a non-contributory system with en, l dowment features and benefits arc l based on salary and service.
 Two other churches to enter the l actuarial pension field in recent months are the Southern Presby. terian and the United Presbyterian | whose members have launched 2 plan almost identical with the Dis, ciples of Christ and Northern Pres. 1 byterians. Southern Presbyterians require S3,000,000 to meet theil accrued liabilities and United Pres 1 byterians are seeking a similar funC

arY during active service.
 The big problem solved ny the Episcopal pension fund was the adequate funding of the accrued liabilities assumed by the pension system. Since no age or health discriminations could properly be made it was necessary for members of the Episcopal church to subscribe at least $5,000,000 for this accrued liabilities fund. Total pledges for this fund reached nearly $9,000,000 or about $4,000,00O more than was required.
 The Disciples of Christ, the lat est religious body to enlist in the pension fund, is organizing com- Inittces which will begin raising $8.O00,000 in 1880.

CANTON, Ohio, March 11.--Rev.
Father Joseph A. Riccardi was shot and

nounced shortly afterward that Mrs.
Mamie Guerrieri, a member of the con-
gregation, had confessed to the crime.
Most of the congregation had left

few words, Five shots rang out and
Father Riccardi fell.
The dying priest told the prosecutor
that the woman had spoken to him Of
her 5-year-old daughter, Palmena, who
was with her at the time of the shoot
ing. He said she complained that the
child had been mistreated at the parish
school.

Assassination Appears Work
of Massacre Gang.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March I1.-Another no
torious gang slaying-that OF FRANKIE
Uale in New York last year-has been
added to the seven murders for which
Jack McGurn already is held here.
Announcement that McGurn had been
identified by photographs as one OF the
Uale killers was made today. The de-
yelopment followed closely the visit OF
New York officers who conferred with
Chicago officials about the Valentine
day mass murder on North Clark street.
The Herald and Examiner today said
the identification of McGurn. Jack
Perry, Louis little New York; Cam
papra and Mike Barnes as men involved
in the Uale assassination had convinced
investigators that the New York and
Chicago murders were done by the same
men. -,
Police said that three telephone calls
to Chicago from the neighborhood OF
Uales home In New York the day be-
fore the Uaie killing had been traced,
and that they apparently had been
made to members of the Al Capone
gang here. McGurn and Perry both are
known to officers as Capone men. One
of the phone calls was made from the
home of Campagna's mother.
Uale and Capone were formerly al
lies, but their relations were broken In
1927.
