CINCINNATI M -A special
committee has reluctantly'1 rec-i
ommended that the Presbyterian
church in the U. S. A. not increase
the pensions of retired and dis-H
abled ministers.
The committee had studied a
proposal to increase the minimum
pension from $600 a year to 11200. 1
To do this without endangering
the pension system, the committee
informed the church's general a
embly, would require: I
(1) A $21, 000,000 increase in the!
reserve fund, and I
(2) An increase of 27 Dercent

Gasoline soaked clothing twice
burst into flame and claimed the
life early today of Leonard Glenn
Good, 19, of rural Washougal.
The coroner's office reported that 1
Good was pumping gasoline from j
a storage tank for a tractor and '
a sudden gushing out of the gaso-:
line soaked his clothes.
He walked into the house to
change, and momenta later ran out
with his clothes afire. His father. ,
Leonard Good, threw a rug over
him and when the fire appeared
out, put him in thecar and started
for a hospital bare.
On the way, the gasoline-soaked
clothes again burst into flame. By
the time the flames were out,
nearly 75 percent of the young
man's body was burned. He died :
in the hospital. ,
The family thought static elec-
tricity may have touched off the
first fir and a smoldering spark
the second.
The church now pays pensions
to 1848 ministers. But not all of
them get the $600 minimum, said
Donald Hibbard, executive vice
president of the board of pensions.
Only those who served the church
at least SS yean receive the min
imum. Some get as low as $27 a year.
Others, who drew large salaries
while active and made substantial
contributions, get as high as $2174.
The "special committee on in
adequate pensions" said it was
concerned for those retired minis
ters who received small pensions
or none at all.
Additional Heme Advised
So, to take care of improverished
clergymen and their wives, who
must be supported in church-operated
homes, the committee sug
gested the church spend $2,000,000.
The money would be used to
build additional home to care for
300 ministers and wives. The na
tional church now owns five of

And it's really easy. All a Mos

to tell his wife he wants one. This,
say the Malay women, is "dis

local churches own others.
To raise the $2,000,000 the com-'
mittee proposed that the churches i
contribute an amount equal to two I
percent of their minister's salary i
during the next four years.

taxation accepts the job as county
assessor, he's going to have to
take a pay cut, Attorney General
George Neuner ruled.
He now gets $4,800 a year, while

The county's district attorney,
James A. Norman, suggested that

pay three percent of their salary
into the pension fund; the churches
pay an amount equal to eight per
cent of the pastor's salary.
