REORGANIZATION LAW:
Congressmen To Receive Pay
Boost, Pension Plan Benefits
C'3

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19-(A)-
Starting in January congressmen
will get higher salaries:
And for the first time they will
be eligible for pensions when they
retire or are defeated.
Move Overdue
The pay and pensions program
is part of the reorganization law
enacted last August-the most
popular section of the law as far
as most legislators are concerned.
Even if some changes are made in
the measure, most observers ex-
pect the part dealing with con-
Bowling Club

gressional pocketbooks to be re-
tained.
Sponsors of the act say the
move toward greater compensa-
tion for congressmen has long
been overdue. They declare that
in the past few years many able
men have quit because of the com-
paratively poor pay. They expect
the new law to attract better men
to congress.
Under the new program sena-
tors and representatives will get
$12,500 yearly instead of $10,000.
The bill also makes permanent the
$2,500 tax-free annual expense
fund for each member.
Pension Requirements
The law boosts the yearly salar-
ies of the Vice President, who pre-
sides over the Senate, and House
speaker from $15,000 to $20,000.
The pension plan will make
congressmen eligible for benefits
now given other federal employes.
To get a pension they will have to
make regular contributions equiv-
alent to six per cent of their basic
salary.
Before they can draw any bene-
fits, the legislators will have to
accumulate six years of service
and be at least 62 years of age.
Their annuity will be 2%/2 per cent
of their average annual salary,
multiplied by years of service.

Mark Funeral
Services Held
In Cambridae
Funeral services for Prof. Ed-
ward L. Mark, Class of 1871, pro-
fessor emeritus of Harvard Uni-
versity, were held yesterday at
Cambridge, Mass.
A noted zoologist, Prof. Mark
died last Tuesday at his home in
Cambridge at the age of 99. Con-
sidered as having trained the
greatest number of zoologists in
the country, he has been cited as
the "leading factor" in lifting bi-
ology in the United States to its
present high rank among the sci-
ences.
Prof. Mark was an instructor in
mathematics at the University for
the year following his graduation.
After receiving his doctor's degree
at Leipzig, Prof. Mark began 45
years of teaching zoology at Har-
vard. He retired in 1921 as Hersey
Professor in Anatomy.
Honorary doctor of law degrees
were conferred on Prof. Mark by
the Universities of. Michigan and
Wisconsin. A member of numer-
ous zoological societies, he held
high offices in several of them.
For several years after his re-
tirement from Harvard, Prof.
Mark directed the Bermuda Lab-
oratory of Research which he had
helped to found.
Active until shortly before his
death, Prof. Mark returned to
Michigan in 1937 for the Univer-
sity's centennial celebation.
