B. DUNNAGAN RALEIOH, Nov. 25—Retirement pay for all State employees, includ ing the, institutional and public school teachers and employees, is expected to be brought before and considered by the 1935 General As sembly when thet lawmaking body convenes in Raleigh early in Jan uary. Whether it will be actually provided or whether a commission will be authorised to report back at a later session is uncertain. but some action along that line is an ticipr ted. Numbers of states have such re tirement. pay for employees who have been in the service for a cer tain number of years and have reached an age. and the Federal government has It especially among Its civil service employees. The pro posal in this State may also carry with it a start toward civil service in the state employment. A begin j nlng was actually made by estab I Mshment of the former Salary and 1 Wage Cctamlsslon In the McLean | administration and carried on by the later division of personnel, but both are far from civil service. North Carolina has retirement | pay. In a certain form for judges and Justices, who may retire at a certain age and after a specified number of years on Superior or Su preme court benches, on two-thirds of their regular pay, but are sub Ject to call for presiding ov«r super ior court terms. An example U Judge Thomas J. Shaw, who has been al most as active as regular or special Judges. Judge James L. Webb plan ned to retire a few years ago, but died before his term ended. Judges Frank A. Daniels and T. B. Finley are to retire at the end of the year. More recently the trustees of the University of North Carolina provid ed for retirement as presidents emeritus of Dr. K. C. Brooks and Dr. J. I. Foust, former heads of State College and the woman’s College of U. N. 0. at $4,000 a year and a sub ject to assignment to duties they can perform. Teaching and admin istrative gtaffs are also retired at certain ages and may retire five years earlier than they are required to retire. Numbers of men and women In the State's Institutions and employ ed by the State have had sufficient service end reached appropriate age* for retirement on a pay schedule which would keep them from want in their old age. Along with old age pensions and unemployment in surance, which are receiving consid eration at present, the retirement pay plan is expected to come up In the IMS session of the general as sembly. * , Maryland Town Is Sold For $42,000 The whole town of Dickeyville, now a part of Hillsdale, Md., com plete with 81 homes, two going fac tories, and the old mansion house, comprising 88 acres of land, was knocked down at auction in Balti more for $42,000.
