Pension for Old People Is Provided in 8 States

Eagles Report Movement Grows; Fight for Law Here. Progress of the old age pension movement sponsored by the Fraternal Order of Eagles is reviewed in a joint statement issued today by Frank E. Hcring, South Bend, and Otto P. Delu.se, Indianapolis, chairman respectively of the national and state commissions of the order on such pensions. Deluse is also a member of the national body. Old age pension laws have been enacted by two states, Wyoming and Minnesota, during 1929 legislative sessions, the statement points out. This brings the total of states with old age pensions to eight, the others being Kentucky, Colorado, Wisconsin, Maryland, Nevada and Montana. The law passed by Wyoming is unique in that pensioning of aged is mandatory. It provides payment of S3O monthly to persons more than 65 years old. residents of the United States fifteen years, of the county five years and state fifteen years. The bill passed the senate with only two dissenting votes and in the house unanimously. Minnesota's law provides establishment of pensions with counties as units, upon a majority vote of citizens thereof. It is similar to the bill defeated by the Indiana senate at the recent session of the general assembly. Deluse conducted the campaign in behalf of the Indiana bill and announces that fight for its passage will continue uninterrupted for the next two years, preparatory to introduction of the bill in the 1931 legislature. A strong effort to pass old age pension legislation in New York was led by the Eagles. Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt in a supplementary message to the law makers declared: "The problem of how to take care of the aged poor outside of state institutions is now occupying the attention of other states of the Union, as well as of foreign countries.” Other state legislatures considering old age pensions are those of Utah, Illinois, Kansas, Idaho, lowa. California, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, Michigan and Rhode Island. CLOTHIER HEADS ELKS Merle E, Rauabaugh Is New Anderson Exalted Ruler.
