Economy by Law. “I desire also to call to your atten- tion that the direct saving to the government under this law has been very large, as’'you will observe from the reports by the department heads. Now. as you know, the government mployes themselves contribute about per cent of the retirement fund. The other part, or 33 per cent, will be contributed by the-government. Most f the pension funds of corporations gand’private institutions, as well as of nany states and citles, are con- tributed entirely by the corporation, the state, or the institution itself. Not so with the government under this law. There are good reasons why we made the contributions 2.50 v the employes and 1.06 by the xovernment. We made it contribu- by the employe in order that hould ke on the part of the employe a zealous desire to do the thing for himself as well as the best thing by the government. “With respect to the amount of money in the treasury that has been Mut there by the contributions of 2% per cent of the salaries of govern- ment employes_since the time this bill was enacted the employes them- selves, if they go out, will recelve only 4 per cent on the amount that they have contributed, whereas the government at the present time is re- ceiving 4%z to 4% per cent on that same money, now loaned out at in- terest. ‘At the present time no appropria- tion is necessary, because for the next decade or 8o it will take care of itself. There is going to be a time when the contribution will be 67 per cent by the employes and 33 per cent by the government.” BERNARR McFADDEN TO BE AT CONVENTION Editor of Physical Culture Will Address Naturopathic Association. ¢ Bernarr McFadden, editor of Physi- oal Culture, will be one of the princi- pal speakers at the twenty-sixth an- nual convention of the American Naturophathic Assoctation to be held in Washington October 5 to 9.
