In general, it appeared that pres

in retirement benefits as now,
though new employes would; pres
ent death benefits are better; state
system does not continue retire

maximum pension is higher, $100
per month compared to $75.

Principal faults found with the
city program which was set up by
an accountant rather than anactu

The city contributes about $23.-
000 annually to the firemen's fund,
an amount which will rise as the
force increases in number. The
contribution, which also includes
administrative costs, is based on a
scale according to the age of the
fireman when employed. The city
also pays in, though not consistent
ly, to provide regular pensions for
pensioners who have service prior
to the program but whose own
contributions previous to retire
ment do not compensate for their
benefits. Five firemen have al
ready retired under the program.

get this extra for 1948-49 because
of lack of funds.
Basis of Plan
The firemen pay $10 monthly
into the fund. For this, the maxi
mum pension is $75 per month for
retirement because of age, service
or disability.
Other benefits are a lump sum
to the beneficiary If death of the
employe is in line of duty and a
continuing, smaller pension to the
widow at the man's death. Deaths
other than on duty, or withdrawal
from the force, entitles the em
ploye to a refund of payments.
The report showed $45,500 on
hand as of last December 31. As
sets also include the present value
of future contributions from em
ployes $78,910; from the city $258,- i
506 for current servica and $225,-
709 for prior service.

17 more will be added, which
