U. S. STEEL
PENSION PLAN
IS Revised
Corporation Pension Plan is
Correlated With Federal
Social Security Act.

Revision of the United States Steel
pension plan, which has provided re-
tirement benefits for eligible employees
of the Corporation and subsidiary COM
panies since January I, 1911, was an
nounced today. The revised plan is
explained in special article in the
January number of US Steel News, the
corporations publication distributed to
all employees of United States Steel
Corporation and subsidiaries.
For twenty-nine years, the corpora
ton has provided old-age benefits to
eligible retiring employees. From time
to time the provisions Of the plan have
been amended to meet changing con-
ditions. The reviSions announced to-
day in US Steel News serve to correIate
the corporation pension plan to the
federal pension laws, the Social Sc
curity Act and the Railroad Retire
ment Acts, which provide pensions to
employees based on earnings
within certain wage and salary limits
The provisions of the former corpor-
alton plan will continue to be applied
in the case Of employees retiring after

to 5 years, this pre-school period being
considered more dangerous than the
school. -Four died during the first year
of life, critical period"
Boys, Sc of them, lead the girls, who
numbered 81, in births While last year
babies were extremely popular among
Ely families, the decline in the birth
rate has shown up markedly in the
schools in a declining enrolment. DR..
Parker pointed out that there was a
general decline in births over the
United States.
Dipping briefly into the effect the
decreased death rate had upon our
economic system, he stated that the
rate among babies had not only been
decreased with the result that more
grow to maturity but the life span of
the adult had been increased from 35
years so years ago to go at the present
time
This raised an economic question Of
old age pensions" he pointed out,
situation that the undertaken kept well
under control in past generations.
Another important fact pointed out
is that Ely's second generation of ma
tive Americans is now in its swaddling
clothes. Figures reveal that go par
ents were born in the u. S. Eleven
gave Jugoslavia as the place Of birth;
4, Austria; 8, Finland: each, Poland,
Sweden, Bulgaria, and Italy.
This is quite the reverse of IS years
ago, Dr. Parker states, when most of
the parents were born in European
countries.

winter and donations will needs be

Why Ely and the range people are
responding so generously to the appeal
for relief from the stricken nation is
probably the determination of the ma
ton as set forth in the creed published
in Sumoonene Kuyalehti, published in
Helsinki, which indicates why the Firms
are fighting with such courage against
Russia and why the civilized world
shows its appreciation by contributing
to the Hoover relief fund and other
funds The creed says:
This is our land It gives us
home, bread and grave. Therefore we
love it. We have only one desire; to
serve the future Of this land in the
best possible way.
Il want to handle my personal af-
fairs as well as possible because the
state must be preserved. I wish to
work as much as I can because the
nation is built by labor and labor is
the best cure for restlessness.
''I wish to trust unfalteringly in those
men whom I have chosen to answer
fer the affairs Of this government be-
cause otherwise we lose all.
Each to serve the common cause.
Therefore we must eliminate from our
lives every useless thought, every pur-
poseleSs act. We must understand one
another that we may act in the best
way. We must forgive one another
every misunderstanding. We must not
have any selfish motives, nor care only
for ourselves or our loved ones, or am
bitions, frivolity or self Importance, as
the fatherland has imposed upon us
responsibility which we must carry.
When IN the future our own day is
to be remembered, let US leave as a
heritage to cur children the knowledge
that our era was the best of which our
lives were capable"
