SUBMITS LIBERAL
RETIREMENT BILL
Civil Service Commission
Plan Ready-0ptiona| Age
Limits Changed.

A proposed new plan for liberalizing
the optional features of the civil
service retirement law has been pre-
sented to members of the House
and Senate by the Civil Service Com
mission and may be introduced today.
With Congress striving to adjourn
soon, however, the proposal is ex-
pected to go over until the January
session. In making known that they
probably would introduce the measure,
Chairman Ramspeck and Chairman
BuloW of the House and Senate Civil
Service Committees. respectively en-
phasized they have not had time to
study the plan in detail and are not
committed to it. The purpose in
introducing it will be to make it
available for careful study during the
recess.
Would Set 1o-Year Limit.
The main features of the plan are:
Mandatory retirement at 70 years
for all groups. instead of the three
existing age limits for different classes
Of work. At present the age limit is
70 for departmental employees gen.
orally; IS years for letter carriers.
post office clerks and mechanical
groups; 81 years for railway mail
clerks and navy yard workers.
At present employees in each of
these three groups have the option of
retiring two years earlier than the
mandatory age, after 80 years Of
service. or at 68 63 and 60, according
to the nature Of their work. The
plan now under consideration proposes
two new optional features.
One feature would allow retirement
al the age of SIS. after 30 years of
service, subject to the consent of both
the Government and the employe.
The other proposal would allow op-
tional retirement at the age of 60,
after 80 years of service, with re-
uuced annuity.
Would Increase Contributions.
The employe contribution to the
retirement fund would be raised from
81 to per cent, and the rate of
interest on such contributions would
be cut from to 3 per cent. The low
interest rate would apply in cases of
optional retirement It was ex-
planned that this is being suggested
to meet estimated increased cost, and
to overcome past opposition to liberal
izing legislation on the ground OF
its cost.
The measure also would make some
changes in the provisions for disability
retirement.
Senator Bulow said that he and
Representative Ramspeck conferred
briefly with officials of the Civil
Service Commission when they
brought the proposal to the Capitol
Bulow said public hearings would be
held before the subject is acted on
at the next session.
