W WEDNES DAY, DECEMBER 7, 1910 " In handling government expenaiture the aim is not profit—the aim is the maximum of public service at the minimuom of cost. We wish to reduce ‘the expenditures of the government, and we wish to save money to enable the government to go into some of the beneficial projects which we are de- barred from taking up now because | "we ought not to increase our expendi- | tures. | At a later date I shall send to con- gress a special message on this gen- eral subject. Civil Service Retirement. It s impossible to proceed far in ®uch an investigation without perceiv- ing the need of a suitable means of eliminating from the service the super- annuated. This can be done in one of two ways—elither by straight civil pen- #lon or by some form of contributery plan. Careful study of experiments made by foreign governments shows that three serious objections to the ‘civil pension payable out of the public treas- ury may be brought against it by the taxpayer, the administrative officer #and the civil employee, respectively. A civil peasion is bound to become an enormous, continuous and increas- ing tax on the public exchequer. It is . demoralizing to the service, since it makes difficult the dismissal of incom- petent employees after they have part- 1y earned their pension, and it is dis- advantageous to the main body of em- ployees themselves, since it is always taken into account in fixing salaries, and only the few who survive and re- main in the service until pensionable age receive the value of their deferred 1y For this reason, after a half century of experience under a most liberal pen- sfon system, the ctvil servants of Eng- land succeeded about a year ago in having the system so modified as to make it virtually a contributory plan with provision for refund of their the- oretical contributions. The experience of England and oth- er countries shows that neither can a contributory plan be successful, hu- man nature being what it i3, which does not make provision for the return of coutributions, with interest, in case of death or resignation before pension- able age. Followed to its logical con- clusion, thls means that the simplest and most Independent solution of the problem for both employee and the government is a compuisory savings | arrangement, the employee to set aside | from his salary a sum sufficient, with the help of a liberal rate of Interest from the government, to purchase an | adequate annuity for him on retire- | ment, thls accumulation to be inalien- | ably his and claimable if he leaves the wservice before reaching the retirement | age or by his heirs in case of his death. This s the principle upon which the Gillett bill, now pending, is drawn. The Gillett bill, however, goes fur- ‘ ther and provides that the government ! shall contribute to the pension fund of those employees who are now so ad- vanced in age that their personal con- tributions will not be sufficient to cre- ate thelr annuities before reaching the | retirement age. In my judgment this provision should bé amended so that the annuities of those employees shall be paid out of the salaries appropri- | ated for the positions vacated by re- | tirement and that the difference be- | tween the annuities thus granted and the salaries may be used for the em- ployment of efficient clerks at the low- er grades. If the bill can be thus amended T recommend its passage, as | 1t will initiate a valuable system and | ultimately result in a great saving In the public expendltures. Interstate Commerce Commission. There has not been time to test the benefit and utility of the amendments to the interstate commerce law con- tained In the act approved June 18, 1910. The law as enacted did not con- | tain all the features which I recom- | mended. It did not specifically de- nounce as unlawful the purchase by one of two parallei and competing roads of the stock of the other. Nor did it subject to the restraining influence of the interstate commerce commission the power .of corporations engaged in operating interstate ralil- roads to issue new stock and bonds. Nor did it aunthorize the making of temporary agreements between rall- roadd, limited to thirty days, fixing the same rates for traffic between the same places | I do not press the consideration of ! any of these objects upon congress at this session. The object of the first | provision is probably generally covered by the anti-trust law. The second pro- | vislon was in the act referred to the | ®onsideration of a commission to be appointed by the executive and to re- :: upon the matter to congress. That mission has beem appointed and s | engaged in the investigation and con- | sideration of the question submlitted | under the law. It consists of President Arthur T. Hadley of Yale university | as chairman, Frederick C. Strauss, | Frederick N. Judson, Professor B. H. Meyer and Walter L. Fisher, with Wil- | llam E. 8. Gelswold as secretary. | The third purpose led to so much | misconstruetion of its object that I am not disposed to press it for further con- sideration. It was intended to permit railrond companies to avoid useless rate cutting by a mere temporary ac- | quiescence i the same rates for the | same service over competing railroads, with no obligation whatever to main- tain those rates for any time Safety Appliences and Provisions. The protection of rafiroad employees from personal injury is a subject of the highest importance and demands eontinuing attention. There have been two measures pending in congress, one ! for the supervision of boilers and the other for the enlurgement of dénger-| ous clearances. Certainly some meas- | wres ought to be adopted looking to a Prevention of accidents from these | canuses. 1 It seems to me that with respect to | bollers a bill might well be drawn re- | quiring and enforcing by penpalty a proper system of inspection by the rallway companies themselves whlch‘ would accomplish our purpose. The entire removal of outside clear- ances would be atynded by such enor- expense that fig= other remedy be_adopips), 't of May 6, ! 1 i ™o west { pal objection which | @’Abrantes Balzac analyzed 1910, the interstate commerce commis- sion is authorized and directed to in- vestigate accidents, to report their causes and its recommendations. I suggest that the commission be re- quested to make a special report as to injuries frem outside clearances and the best method of reducing them. Valuation of Railroads. The interstate commerce commission has recommended appropriations for the purpose of enabling it to enter upon a valuation of all railroads. This has always been within the jurisdiction of the commission, but the requisite funds have been wanting. Statistics of the value of each railroad would be valu- able for many purposes, especially if we ultimately enact any limitations upon the power of the interstate rail- roads to issue stocks and bonds, as T hope we may. I think, therefore, that in order fo permit a correct understanding of the facts it would be wise to make a rea- sonable appropriation to enable the in- terstate commerce commission tg pro- ceed with due dispatch to the valua- tion of all railroads. T have no doubt that raflroad companies themselves can and will greatly facilitate this val- uwation and make it much less costly in time and money than has been sup- posed. Fraudulent Bills of Lading. Forged and fraudulent bills of lad- ing purporting to be issued against cotton some months since resulted in losses of several millions of dollars to American and foreign banking and cotton interssts. Foreign bankers then notified American bankers that after Oct. 31, 1910, they would not accept bills of exchange drawn against bills of lading for cotton jssued by Ameri- can railroad companies unless Ameri- can bankers would guarantee the in- tegrity of the bills of lading. The American bankers rightly main- tained that they were not justified in giving such guarantees and that if they did so the United States would be the only country in the world whose bills were so . discredited and whose for- eign trade was carried on under such guarantees. The foreign bankers extended the time at which these guarantees were demanded until Dec. 31, 1910, relying upon us for protection in the mean- time, as the money which they fur- nish to move our cotton crop is of great value to this country. For the protection of our own people and the preservation of our credit in foreign trade I urge upon congress the immediate enactment of a law under which one who in good faith ad- vances money or credit upon a bill of lading issued by a common earrier upon an Interstate or foreign shipment | can hold the carrier liable for the | value of the goods described in the bill at the valuation specified in the bill, at least to the extent of the ad- vances made in reliance upon it. Such liability exists under the laws of many of the states. 1 see no ob- jection to permitting two classes of bills of lading to be issued: (1) Those under which a carrler shall be abso- lutely liable, as above suggested, and (2) those with respect to which the carrier shall assume no liability except for the goods actunally delivered to the agent issuing the bill. The carrier might be permitted to make a small separate specific charge in addition to the rate of transportation for such guaramteed blll as an Insur- ance premium against loss from the added risk, thus removing the prinei I understand is made by the railroad companies to the imposition of the liability suggested— | viz, that the ordinary transportation | rate would not compensate them for the llability assumed by the absolute guaranty of the accuracy of the bills of lading. 1 further recommend that a punish- ment of fine and imprisonment be im- posed upon raflroad agents and ship- pers for fraud or misrepresentation In connection with the issue of bills of lading issued upon interstate and for- | eign shipments. Except as above, I do not recommend | any amendment to the interstate com- | merce law as It stands. I do not nmow | recommend any amendment to the | anti-trust law. In other words, it seems to me that | the existing legislation with reference | to the regulation of corporations and the restraint of their business bas| | reached a point where we can stop for | awhile and witness the effect of the vigorous execution of the laws on the statute books in restraining the abuses which certainly did exist and which roused the public to demand reform. If this test develops a need for fur- ther legisiation, well and good, but un- til then let us execute what we have, Due to the reform movements of the | present decade, there has undoubtedly i been a great improvement in hu:iuv\'s\ | | | | | methods and standards and in the earnestness of effort on the part of business men to comply with the law. They are now seeking to know the ex- | act limitations upon business methods imposzed by the law, and these will doubtless be made clearer by the de- cislons of the supreme court in cases pending before it I believe it to be in the interest of all the people of the country that for the time being the activities of govern- ment, in addition. to enforcing the ex- isting law, be directed toward the economy of administration and the en- largement of opportunities for foreign trade, the building up of home indu tries and the ‘strengthening of confi dence of capital in domestic invest- | ment.

Some thief in the night had played havoc among the forbidden fruit, and Professor Pumper- dinck could find no clew but a finger print left on an unripe specimen. Nevertheless it was something, and he had his suspicions. Forthwith the professor made an enlargement, and shortly after met the suspect. “Ah, Jake!” he said. id you know some one robbed my garden the other night?” “Did ’em, zur?” returned Jake inno- cently. “Yes, nodded Professor Pumper- dinck. “But the thief left his mark be- hind, so I'll easily trace him.” He pro- duced the enlargement. “Do you see that?” Jake's knees began to quiver.

It is too painful.” “What! Do you dare to look me in the face and insinute that she is never likely to be able to sin “I am very sorry, sir, but if you will compel me fo speak the truth it is as you say.” “Then why the mischief have you been letting her come here for two years and hand you my good money in return for your iessons?” “Because 1 have wished to serve you, sir.

One eveni at the tre, Johnson said sarcast ly to me, “It seems, sir, you have kept very good company abroad--Rousseau and Wilkes.” I an- swered, with a smil ‘My dear sir, you don’t call Rousseau bad company. Do you really think him a bad man?’ Said Johnson: “Sir, if you are talking jestingly of this I don't talk to you. If you can be serious I think him one of the worst of men, a rascal who ought to be hunted out of society, as he has been. Three or four nations have ex- pelted him, and it is a shame that he is protected in thi untry. Rousseau, sir, is a very bad man.

There are some people who are ale ways “looking for trouble.” If it rains th are sure the crops will be drowned out before it stops, and if it is dry they are sure that everything will be burned up before it rains. Thelr discouraging outlook is like that of an old lady who watched the first trial of a new trolley line in her town. A crowd had gathered to see the first car make its initial trip. A great deal of preparatory work seemed to be required by the motorman, and as the people stood and watched every move- ment this old lady, to whom the idea of a car being able to move w ut any visible in- comprehen never go It'll never go.” Finally everything was adjusted to the motorman’s satisfaction. He turn- ed the switch, and the car sped away down the track. The old lady's eyes opened wide. She watched the car for a moment, and then, with amazement still written upon hi features, but with firm con- viction in her voice, she turned once more to the crowd and said, “It'll never st Youth’s Companion The Woolsack.
