"The promise of pensions for super - animated or incapacitated professois and Instructors in the great universi ties of the country is equivalent to in c reusing the salaries attaching to those positions. Other things being equal, It will he perfecly natural for the ( due a tor who has devoted himself to instructional or research work In in stitutions of higher learning to pre fer the place which ajlows him to par ticipate In a pension fund under cer tain conditions over one which leaves him entirely dependent upon his own resources when the time comes to re tire from active service Irr other words, until something is done to counteract tiis disturbing factor, un less other conditions enter, the state universities will be so handicapped in their efforts to secure and hold com- pittance, while the well remunerated instructor In a wealthy outlawed insti tution is benefitted unjustly. Not thai t he benefit is unjust in itself, but-lt rs unjust irr comparison of relative merit.-, and positions it i&. a case of the saving "to him that hath shall be given," being only too true. The above 'article suggests three, remedies; to increase salaries, to establish a pension fund or to pre vail up'on Mr. Carnegie to remove the sot ailed "uncalled for and mischievous discrimination," and the writer pro ceeds to knock out the second ot the remedial possibilities, leaving an in crease irr salaries or a change irr Car negie's mind as the only resorts The epithets "uncalled-for" and ' irrisi liievous" aie irr themselves un called for.
