In his message President Taft wll urge congress to pass a pension rO tirement bill for civil employes. It Is not likely that the presiden will advocate any particular bill, bu | will leave this phase of the matte | to congress. 8eaator Cummins of Iowa hai made a special study of the pensloi subject, nnd there Is a chance ths President Taft will consult with bin about the possibility of pushing sue5 a bUI through congress.
