NEW YORK. October lO.-What to
do with private pension plans, estimat-
ed to cover nearly 100000 workers,
is occupying the attention of business
executives today as the date ap-
preached for Uncle SANS vast program
of old-age pensions to go into effect.
Several hundred concerns, including
some Of the largest in the country.
maintain their own systems Of employe
benefit.
So far the Government has an
nounced no exemption for company
plans.
Very few concerns have discon-
tinued their own systems and the gen.
eral tendency in industry has been to
wait and see what will happen and In
the meantime to study adjustments to
supplement or augment the Govern
ment's program.
Pay roll levies to build up a huge
Federal pension fund become effective
January against the earnings Of up
ward of Is, ZOO. 900 workers.
They start at 2 per cent Of the pay
roll, half contributed by the employer
and half by the employe, and are
aimed to reach possible maximum Of
6 per cent by ls4s.
Benefits Start in 1912.
The Federal program calls for bene-
fits starting In 1912 ranging from Sis
TO a top of sS5 monthly. It Is figured
the average probably would be $40
to s35.
Analysts say the Governments plan
favors the lower-paid and shorter
term workers.
Some employers, consequently. have
faced the problem whether added BEN
efits should be arranged for workers
accustomed to higher incomes and In
longer terms Of service.
A survey reveals that many corpora
tions with private plans are particu-
larly studying this phase to determine
how much extra social security" can
be provided to supplement Uncle Sans
program.
The survey also indicates no general
movement to abandon private plans
for the present.
Instead the tendencies seemed to
be to:
Stand pat pending study and clari-
fication of the Federal program, in
cluding q Supreme Court test Of its
legality.
Adjust company plans on o sound
financial basis to supplement the
Federal.
Provide for employees until Federal
benefits are available.
Discontinuances Few.
From all indications decisions to
discontinue company plans have been
in the small minority.
Corporation executives have had
their heads together with lawyers
and insurance men before acting. One
reason for delay has been o widely
held belief that the Federal program
may be modified to exempt company
plans or allow credits for those
meeting Federal requirements. Some
expect this point may be raised again
In the next session of Congress.
Doubt - b the legality Of the
program was said to be another rea-
son. A move by New jersey to test n

LONDON, October 10 P).-British
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden will
let tempers cool q few days and then
try to salve the diplomatic breach
between Russia and Italy over the
Spanish civil war non-intervention
pact, informed sources said tonight.
Russian charges that italy, Portugal
and Germany were supplying arms to
Spanish Fascists in violation Of the
pact caused the breach. The three
accused nations denied it.
italian Delegate Dino Grandi called
the Soviet representative liar and
charged Moscow was assisting the
Madrid Socialist government.
Relations Strained.
As result, the European Nom
Intervention Committee adjourned
without definite decision whether any
one was violating the pact. and with
strained relations apparent between
envoys Of the countries involved.
Eden's pacifcation attempt, reliable
4nformants said, probably will get
underway next week with initial con-
versations beginning before Wednes-
days cabinet meeting.
The foreign secretary spent the day
studying the latest Spanish Socialist
government note, charging Italians
were occupying the Spanish Isle Of
Ibiza.
Authoritative observers expressed
belief Russia's representative was so
taken back by Grandi's vitriolic at
tack that the Soviet nation would not
rush into another non-intervention
session at too early GATE.
Time to Answer Complaints.
Adjourning last night the Neutrality
Committee announced time would be
allowed Italy. Germany and Portugal
to answer complaints by the Madrid
Socialist government Of assisting the
Spanish Fascists. They were almost
identical with the Russian charges.
Francisco Calheiros Of Portugal,
who withdrew personally from the
raucous assembly. and Prince Otto
Won Bismarck of Germany denied the
Russian allegations by Delegate
Moiseyevich Kagan.
!: It. was believed likely. informed
sources said, that the three nations
would add formal denials and clarifica-
ton Of their position before another
meeting Of the Neutrality Committee
as called.
