Circulate Old Age Pension Petitions Here
Lorain County Old Age Committee led by Chairman J Leser and Secretary Wright has completed its organization and will begin circulating Old Age Pension petitions in Elyria on Tuesday August 30. The effort is backed by the Fraternal Order of Eagles the Ohio State Federation of Labor and the Old Age Security League. The proposed Ohio law would provide pensions up to 300 a year for eligible residents with at least fifteen years of state and national citizenship and would cover burial expenses up to 100. Volunteers will canvass individuals and answer questions about the law while a county and district candidate survey on pension views will be released later. A meeting for fraternal groups to join the petition drive is set for 7 45 tonight at the Eagles Club with Elyria cooperators including Eagles carpenters electricians plumbers bricklayers printers and others.
