Battle of Pensions Shift in
Steel-Union Argument
By SAM DAWSON
New York The battle for lecurity ii shifting. Who ihould
provide for your old age you, your government or your boss?
Some unions say it is up to your boss, if your social security
check isn't enough. Some companies reply: "No one unwilling to
contribute to his own old age requirements has a moral right to
demand that others make that
provisio for him."
There are already some 12.000
security plans in effect in pri
vate industry, benefitting about
h million employes. In the
battle to expand this the issue
is becoming: Who is going to
pay for the support of our grow
ing army of the aged?
Steel companies, under parti
cular attack on the subject now,
say many of them have had pen
sion and welfare insurance plans
in effect over a period of years.
All, they say, are willing to
discuss the matter with labor,
but only if the employe also con
tributes to the pension fund,
Such a fund, they add, is sound
er, more equitable, and more
easily held in check.
When labor concentrated its
fight on getting higher wages,
one of its arguments was that
'man should make enough to be
able to put a little aside for his
old age. This fall labor is in
sisting that it is the boss who
would put a little aside for the
employe. Union labor reasons
that as wages went up, so did
prices, so that the worker still
didn't have much put aside for
old age.
The workers argue that cor
porations take care of pensions
for the top brass and for free
in most instances. Why not the
working man?
This issue who pays for pen
sions threatens crippling
strikes In the steel, automobile,
electrical appliance, coal and
other industries.
The appeal for pensions used
to be an appeal to sentiment
the most common figure of
speech was 'putting the old
horse out to pasture." Of course.

My, my that's delicious coffee, what kind is it? That remark was heard hundreds of times at Our

Maybe you think it isn't embarrassing to us too. And it happens every day at
most every store. Some one wants a favor, maybe it's only a check cashed. What
ever it is, if they're known, they get the favor, at least they are pretty sure to at
both of our markets, but there are untold numbers who are just as reliable and
because they're not known, have trouble meeting an emergency. The moral to
that is, select a store in which you have confidence, become known. You'll find
that to be the best thing you ever did. We invite you to make these markets
YOUR MARKETS. We most certainly will endeavor to merit your confidence.
