Dwellers In tenement may obtain work a farm laborer, and competent farmers from the eastern region may find generously good opportuntles for their skill In th wet. according to C. C. Rosewater. In a speech at the Commercial club Saturday noon. Mr. Rosewater was one of the gueets of honor st a dinner tendered by the Commercial club to the managers and exhibitor at th Omaha Land show. "I don't believe that the poverty stricken tenement Inhabitants of the large cities are the people who shall fill up the habitations of the west which are now uninhabited," he said. "I believe the tendency is for farmers of the east to move westward and for the land a', all tlmea to remain under the cultivation of skilled agriculturists. For ages the eyes of the white race In America have been turned westward and the same migatory Instinct now prevails. But It 1 not the population of the overcrowded cities, th hordes of Incapable city slum dwellers who are able to settle upon and develop th land. There is a place for the tenement population as farm laborers on the western farms, but not as farm own er. "People do not have to come from the east coast to the west coast; the westward ho trend Is carried out by people from one state moving Into the next state west and so on, and the land la gradually being taken up in capable fashion." Mr. Rosewater explained that the press tilled the function of exploiting the western lands in a general way. and that It wa up to th land owner to actually Influence Individual into moving from the east Into the west. Men representing South Dakota. Wyom ing, Montana, Idaho and Arlxona were present at the meeting. Chairman Haver- stick of the Commercial club presided over the luncheon. David Cole, president of the club, made the opening address. R. C. Pettlbone and H. O. Livingston were the other speakers of the occasion. Library Board Has a Pension Plan in View System of Acquiring Retirement Fund and Pensioning Old Employes is Mapped Out. If the Omaha Public Library board has Its way and the plan under consideration at Friday night's meeting is rsrrlcd out, the employes of the library will In the fu ture enjoy the benefits of a pension sys tem. The board contemplates a plan that would not entail additional tax or burden upon the public; namely, to accumulate a re tirement fund by a small salary ansess ment upon the employes of the library, and by setting aside a certain proportion ate fund from the annual appropriation for the support of the library. It Is the belief of th Doard that the employe of the library should be pro tected as the teachers are now protected by the present teachers' pension system. In brief, the financial plan Is, that a maximum pension of $300 per year shall be paid upon retirement, which shall be com, pulsory at the end of forty years' service, but which may be ordered at the pleasure of the board at any' time after thirty year' service. If an-' employe Is suffering from III health, or such disability as to incapaci tate him from service, the board may re tire him at any time after twenty years' service, the pension then received to bear such proportion to S300"annually as the number of years that have been served shall bear to thirty. Should there be re instatement, after retirement for disability, then the pension ceases until final retire ment, when all the years of active serv ice will be counted In fixing the amount of future pension. At all events, for an employe to avail himself of pension upon retirement, twenty years of aatlve service shall have been given In the Omaha li brary.
