The recent British legislation for old age pensions does not api>eal to Americans. Neither does the German compulsory system. They recognize the iini»ortance of a provision for superannuated work ers, but they are Inclined to believe that time will bring with it a solution more satisfactory than any which has been worked out elsewhere. There is as yet no demand for legislation on the sub ject. Powerful labor organizations can establish pension systems of their own. as the typographical union has done. The great corporations will gradually make provision for the pensioning of aged employes. There will still be a host of workers not Included in either of these categories. To them the com bined industrial Insurance and annuity plan recently put In operation in Mas- sachusetts ought to commend itself, The State branch of the American Fed- eratlon of Laitor has strongly advised the workers to avail themselves of it, and the indications are that they will do so. A wage earner may make his own provision for old age by setting aside a small sum out of his weekly wages. If he shall also get a pension from an employer or a union, so much the better.
