80 YEARS IN u. S. PAY
ENOUGH, SAYS BILLER
Voluntary Retirement After Thai
Period Urged by Federation
Official.

Voluntary retirement for Federal
workers after 80 years service would bs
advantageous to the Government, In the
opinion of Ulrey J. Biller, seventh vice
president of the National Federation
Of Federal Employees. Biller Is knows,
as a specialist on retirement.
Citing figures from the annual reports
OF the Civil Service Commission and
the Veterans Administration for the
fiscal year 1881, Biller pointed out 30
the Federation's Executive Council yes
terday that very few of those employees
in the 81. 65 and 10 year retirement
groups, who under the act of May 2e,
1929, were entitled to optional retire.
ment at go, 63 and SO years, re-
spectively, have taken advantage Of
that option"
In the first group, only IT retired
at 60," said Biller, "94 in the second
group retired at SO, and in the third
group only 81 retired at 68. A total Of
sos retired before reaching the auto
matte age of retirement.
THE small number going out at
minimum age and the total number
retiring before attaining the compulsory
age of retirement tend to show that
voluntary retirement after 80 years
service, regardless of age, would not
greatly increase the retirement roll."
