Eastman, transportation co-ordinator, opposed the recently reaewed drive in Congress for railroad pension legislation in testimony ‘before the Senate Interstate Commerce Com- mittee yesterday. He said “the need for this particular legislation has not been shown.” Eastman was testifying on the twin bills recently offered in both Houses to replace the retirement law invali- dated by the Supreme Court. Urges Sound Law. “My own judgment is that there should be a sound retirement and annuity system designed especially for the railroad industry the committee, “but my belief is based on a general knowledge of the situa- tion, and admittedly lacks the factual backing necessary to make a conclu- sive case. “For the reasons which I have indi- cated, it seems to me that inadequate | ccasideration has been given to ad- ministrative and cost factors in the newly-drafted bills, and that the working out of these factors and the problem of integrating and articulating the new system with the social security bill needs much further careful | analysis. Fears Undermining of Program. “Unless this is done, Congress, by} setting up a pension system for & | special class of employes such as those of the railroads, inadequately articu- lated with the old-age benefit features of the social security bill, may well | start in motion the process of estab- lishing similar pension systems for other special ¢ es of employes, thereby " undermaing the financial foundations upon which the present social security bill rests. “I am, therefore, of the opinion that legislation at this time would necessarily be hasty and 1ll-conceived.” | Monument to Be Unveiled.
