Book Description

Excerpt from Report on the Teachers' Retirement Fund, City of New York The consideration of the teachers' retirement fund in advance of the general pension problem of the city is necessitated by its critical financial condition. The fund's resources are exhausted, temporary relief measures have failed of adoption, and it appears that a reorganization can be effected only if a permanent plan is submitted. The disadvantages of arriving at a final solution with regard to the teachers' fund at the present time are twofold. In the first place, a con sistent retirement policy, giving equal consideration under like conditions to all city employees, can best be developed after facts relating to the entire municipal service have been presented and discussed according to their relative value and significance. Secondly, definite recommendations for support by the city are difficult before calculations of the cost of all existing and tentatively proposed new pension provisions have been completed.
