S. Sykes. GAGER Funerdl Director and Embalmer Prompt service day or night ] pension system for public school teach- ers. “Ah we know that before” you say. Truly, but we want you to know it “with emphasis, and we want you to know what an isolated position Connecticut occupies in the eastern Ppart ‘of this country on the matter of teachers’ pensions. i Stinds Alone. In proof of this isolated position, let me submit a_few facts for your con- sideratiori. First, every state in New England, except Connecticut and New Hampshire, has established a state Ppendion system for teachers, ond, state pension systems _for teachers ‘are maintained in New York (state), New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia. In its refusal to adopt a Deggion evstem, alceptable ‘to the ing force of the state, Connecti- cut, one of the thirteen original states, a state of great iidustry and wealth, Stgpds almost alone among the. east- erff galaxy of states. hird, ~according to thé United Stiftes census of 1910, the population ofthe six New England states, to- gether with that of New: York, New Jersey, - Maryland and Virginia, was abéyt 22 mjllion of people. More than 20 million of people, out of the 22 million Hving in those ten states, edu- cate their children in school systems, in which the teachers have an oppor- tunity to retire with a pension after 25 or 30 years of service. Less than two million of people, nearly three- fourths of them in Connecticut, out of the 23 million living in those ten states, educate their children in school stems, in which the teachers have no opportunity to retire with a pen- sion after 25, 30 or 50 years of service. Why this unfair discrimination against the teachers and children of Connecti- cut? Are those 20 million people wrong, and the two million right? We do_not think so. But there are more contributory facts. In 1913, California_established a pension system on a plan that re- quires every teacher to contribute one dollar per month; until thirty years of service have been completed, $360 in all, after which she dan rétire with a pension of 3500 a year, irrespective of her mental or physical condition, or of her age. 5 California has taken a position dis- tinctly in advance of Massachusetts and Rhode Island in this matter of eligibility to retirement with a pen- sion. In those states, the board of re- tirement asks the applicant for a pen- sion: “How old are you?’ If under jsixty vears of age, the applicant can- not be retired with a pension at that time. Pertinent Questions. In view of what has already been stated, I regard the following as per- tinent’ questions: (1) Are the employes of corporations serving under a system of organized charity? We claim that they are not. (2) Is the humanitarian principle in- volved in their pension systems? The corporations say that it is not. (3) Why do these corporations maintain pension systems? Mainly as an eco- nomic measure. They regard it is a good business Investment. (4) Does the principle of pensions hold true in the pensioning of public school teach- ers? We believe that it does. Let meaffirm without fear of ‘con- tradiction’ that ~Connecticut's geo- graphical position, together with its strange, isolated policy pertaining to teachers pensions, makes the state a sort of a training school and recruit- ing station for teachers for our adjoin- ing states. Said Supt. Maxwell at one of our public hearings: ‘“New York city has many of your best teachers and will continue to get more of them every year, unless you do better by your teachers, and offer thém more in- ducements to remain at home.” For years superintendents from other states have come to Connecticut to O/Keefe of Torrington and Misses ‘atie, Julia and Mary of Rockville.

Teachers the State Has Tra aed. | state, I'n happy. to say. But why should we lose on account of salary or pension attraction? Connecticut is rich enough fo relain in the state those ers it bus trained at public ex- pense. . - Reasons for a Pension System, The situation in Connecticut shows. that there are three good reasons for the maintenance of & pension system for public_school teachers. - First, the state needs the system. Desifuble teachers of education and training are scarce; the normal schools do mot. graduate ough teachers for the new positions; many of the bright- est and strongest personalities take up business pursuits; the whole pension movement in -the business world and in the teaching profession is an eco- nomic measure; a’direct pension sys tem would cover the entire state, from the smallest town to the largest city. In view of what I have said, I am fully convinced that the people of the state, outside of the teaching profession, ought to take the initiative in this pension movement. Second, the teachers need a pension system. 'Regarding teachers' salaries, the report issued by the Russell-Sag Foundation in December, 1912, says: “The average annual salary paid to public ‘school teachers in the United States, as a whole, is $485. The fact that teachers’ wages are lower than thosé paid almost any other sort of service, means that, as a nation, ‘we are neither asking ror getting, a Mgh grade of service, and, as a nation, that we place a low valuation on the teach- ers’ work.” In Connecticut, for the year 1910, the average annual salary of all pub- lic school teachers, including men and ‘women in both elementary and high schools, was only $590, At'the legislative sessicns 1909 “1ad 1911 the teachers' pension bill received scant courtesy from the meml:Ts o. the legiclature, many of whom wiin more or less fervor, advance” i 3 argument that salaries ¢ .ou d ve raieed so that teachers would be attractsd (7% to the teaching rrofessior. Vi, the salaries have been raised—33.36 per month for women and $2.01 per Tronth for men—but at the present time w ara unable fo give even an approximate estimate of th . nvmber of teichcrs ai- tracted (?) to tbe pr.fescicn oy taal salary-raise. Moubtle«+ -uture chron!- cles wil. revea: tire trzgic t -uth. This matter of salarv alon. ouzht to convince any Connect ~ut egislatilic that the state is 'n dutv boind o pas the entire cost of pensions. A few vears ago an investivatior discloseu the fact that only 250 feuchers of the 5,000 teachers then erployed in «his state had taught 50 years or o\ er—ouiy 5 per cent. Under a compulso:y as- sessment plan a teacher would stand about one chance in 20 of ever rcceiv ing one cent in return for the money she had centributed. At three different legisl tive scssicns in this state, 1909, 1911, 1913 the Con- necticut State Teachers' a-sociaton s troduced a bill calling for a airect state pension system on the nun-as- sessment plan, »nd three imes we have been defeated. Pension Systems. There are really only twc systems for pensioning public sch ol :ea.aers— the assessment plan and the non- assessment plan. Which is _he better plan? We do not know, but we advo- cate the straight ‘assessment plan. - ‘We are in favor of a state system oi pensions, rather than a local system. A few rich towns and cities, agitggion of the matter, mi per m their veteran teachers, while the smal! towns, from which have come - many of our leading business \ men, scholars and_statesmen, woul't be unable to do so. Under a local system the pensions would vary amorg ‘he different towns and cities, and a spirit of rivalry, jealousy and unrest would g developed a condition preiudicia: to eflicient work in the schools A s.uate system, however, would unify cnd simpli! ail administrative feat:res and extend its benefits to every town in the state. Financial Aspect. Finally, why does the state hesitaie to establish a pension system for teachers? Not on account of the cost of maintenance, 1 trust. What does the state care about 25 or 30 thousand dol- lars, annually, for a movement that ‘will promote the cause of educa ion? ‘We believe that the chief reason ior voting down the rension bill years ago was the fear on the part of some that a_teachers' pension system would be an entering wedge for genera: pen- sions. that is this: In all the states and cities in this country in which a teschers pension system has been establisiied | there has been no concerted effort to jextend the pension idea into other | flelds of public service. Public school | teachers occupy a unique position in this country, no parallel being fourd. What is the outlook? Better tnan ever before. At the last session of the legislature the house and senate passed our pension bill aimoest unanimous.y. Not seeing his way clear to make any discrimination, Governor Baldwin ve- toed the pension bill in connection with several other bills calling for larse state appropriations. But the fact that our bill passed both houses with but little opposition is an indication that the people of the state are In fa- vor of & teachers’ pension bill, We do not doubt that the members of the ieg- Islature in¢voting for the bill repre- sented their constituencles, I have presented to you as best I eould the situation and eutlook cen- cerning pensions in this state, What are you geing te do about it? Carry on a campaign of education, T trust. in every town and city in this secticn, not as a persenal matter, but as & public matter. Ask your peliticians and busi- ness men why Connecticut dees noet fall inte line with eur adjoining siates. Ask veour principals and superiatend ents te take a mere active interest in | the pension movemCnt. Seek the as- sistance of the public press, and urge vour bhoards of seheol visitors to take Qefinite action on the matter. Common Pleas Docket Called. Phe annual calling of the docket of the common pleas court took place here Monday aftermnoon when court came in with Judge Waller on -the bench. About 180 cases were stricken off the docket. There will be a session of the court in New London on Saturday and a bar meeting will be held and jury cases will be assigned to follow the criminal term of the court which will come in at New London on Tuesday of next week. Prosecuting Attorney Whittle- sey will meet the lawyers here on Pri- day at 10 a. m. to arrange the crim- inal business. McKinley Avenue Church Rally. The. rally in the McKinley avenue A. M. E.

Before the session opened the dele- gates and visitors to the council at- tended high mass at St. Mary's church and listened to a sermon by the pas- tor, Rev. F. J. Murphy.” Immediately after the service the council was called to order at the town hall by State Dep- uty William J. Mulligan of Thomp- sonville. In presenting his report the state deputy said that the work of the past year was the most productive of many years. For Catholic University. “The accomplishments of the past year will be remembered,” he said, “but perhaps the one achievement sur- passing all others was the presenting of the $500.000 to the Catholic univer- sity at Washington. Connecticut did remarkably well In contributing toward this fund, but it must be remembered that the expense incident to the col- her right side and back injured and sustained a severe shock to her ner- cous system. The case of Emma Edwards vs. the town of Waterford was the third ad- justed without trial. The plainti®t claimed that on the night of Dec. 25. 1908, she was walking along the road at what s known as Flanders or Beach Hollow, and she fell down a 10 foo: bank. She was bound to Jordan vil- lage. The right leg of the woman was broken and she was otherwise hurt. She sued for the sum of $2.500. The accident happened on the Lyme turnpike. The case of Lizzie F. Chase vs. Nan- cy Chase. down for trial, was pusi- poned and will be reassigned. FINAL SHOP MEETING. Rev. G. H. Strouse Speaker at Last of Series at Cutlery. The Y. M. C. A. clesed their shop meetings for the summer at the Inter- national Stlver company Tuesday noon. Rev. George H. Strouse gave an ex- cellent address on the subject of A Daring Venture. Appropriate sel tions were played on the Victor ma- chine. Rev. Mr. Strouse said in part: Jesi d the fellowship of dar- ing souls. There were the brickyards for those who were satisfled with the fleshpots of Egvpt. There was tne wilderness wandering for timid souls. But there was Canaan for those who would venture in a fight for conquest of the promised land. Jesus was an intense soul and craved fellowship with peopl ewho had inten- sity of purpose. Jesus likes an intense soul. A man who means business. The man who doesn’t venture never gets anywhere. True in the commercial world and true also in the spiritual world. The dar- ing man risks all for Christ and the treasure is his. Jesus warms np to a man who goes into it for dear life, who is willing to make a daring ven- ture. Better to fail in 4 big undertaking than succeed in something trivial Jesus called for daring men. The Christian life is a daring venture. Lut it's worth while. Make the venture and Christ and heaven are yours. BENEFACTORS. NORWICH Other Notable Names Suggested to Be Added to List. Tuesday the attention of Mayor Murphy was called to the fact that an addition to the names to be honored at the coming Benefactors' day is that of the late Henry Bill, who donated Laurel Hill park to the city. A local man suggests that the name of the late Judge James A. Hovey be added as one of the first proomters of the city waterworks. In_connection with the late Hugh H. Osgood .the same gentleman recalls the fact that for years Colonel Osgood served as treas- urer of the Central school district as well as mayor of the city, refusing all salary for his valuable services. The late James Lloyd Greene also served the city as mayor, declining all finan- clal reimbursement. Another resident expresses the hope that mention will be made of the splen- did_patriotism of Gov. William A. Buckingham at_the outbreak of the war, and of Mayor Greenes sister, Miss Elizabeth Greene, who presented a money gift to each volunteer soldier. the mention of ROUND TABLE MEETING.

The total amount paid by ~ Connecticut toward this fund on April 15 was 311, 450.98. ‘s Lecture Bureau Work. Reference was made to the work of the lecture bureau and to the lec- turer, Rev, William A. Keefe, pastor of St. John's church, Plainfieid,’ who, the state deputy said as lectuber of the Connecticut fourth degree district “has been untiring in his work of turther advancing the cause of our orders;” and also to the $1,000 given by the knights to the St. Agnes fund which Bishop Nilan is raising to es. tablish a children's home. Taking up the question of consolidation of coun- cils, the state deputy said that the idea of consolidating councils in cities possessing more than one council has gained considerable headway during the past year. “New Haven and Mer- iden.” he said, “have taken the lead in this movement, for in both places actual amalgamation to a very large extent has taken place. The councils In New Britain, Hartford and Bridge- port have discussed the plan of amal- gamating and eventually it will come to pass in each of these places. Con- solidation of councils cannot be too urgently pressed and the earlier the councils in these cities decide to con- solidate the better it will be for the order. The present membership of the or- der in the state, the deputy said, n round numbers is 10,000. During the vears 850 had been received as mem- bers, making a total net gain of 607, which is 317 more than last year.
