Pension Office Work Warnings From General Raum
General Raum, pension commissioner, reports seven months of activity to Secretary Noble. From 855,878 new pension applications under the 1890 act and 116,889 under old laws, 102,800 claims remain pending. First payments and projected totals indicate a drop in old-law pensions versus last year, while new-law claims rise, suggesting no large deficiency in appropriations. Raum argues the act will substantially lower annual pension values.
