B. Jennings, Socony-Vacuum dent, at New York City. The improved affect aprpximately 42,000 of the company in the United States, of which shout fifty-two per cent or 25,000 are unorganized, the remainder being members of unions.

The program has been submit' ted to members of the Independent Union of the Olean plant for consideration and action, W. W. Warner, Olean plant manager, said today. Members of the local union are expected to take action at an early date. EFFECTIVE SOON Several new plans are being established, others are being improved and the balance are being continued without change.

The changes are generally effective September 1, 1950. Present employe contributions remain unchanged. In a letter accompanying the announcement, Mr. Jennings, said the changes are effective for all unorganized employes and are being offered also to representatives of employes in collective bargaining units. Socony- Vacuum established its em- ployes' annuities system in 1903.

One of the new plans provides a minimum monthly retirement income, including the proposed liberalized Federal Social Se- curity benefits, of $123 for em- wAh twenty five yean of crdttied service, increased by five dollars monthly for each additional year to a top minimum of (200 after forty of credited service. DISABILITY BENEFITS Other new plant include the plan tor total and permanent disability which an employe with more than twenty credited service, in any case of total and permanent disability, of a lifetime income. A plan for termination allowances which sets up a schedule of benefits to assist any employe who loses his job through no fault of his own. Under revisions in existing plans, an employe with twenty years of service may retire if he wishes with ah actuarially- ad justed annuity within five years preceding the normal retirement date. A new employe now can participate the annuity and insurance plan immediately following employment.

An employe who leaves the company after five years' of service sod participation in the annuity plao, irrespective of age, now has a vested right in his total accumulated pension credits Including those purchased by him and the company. The temporary increases in pensions granted by the company since the war have been adjusted to reflect the proposed liberalized Federal Social Security benefits.
