(Reed. April 1, 11.40 a.m.) PARIS, Tnursday,
The French Parliament has passed the Old Age Pensions Bill. Taxpayers contribute £5,520,000 during the first year.
The Government's critics complain that Germany pays only £2,600,000 for a system including pensions and allowances for incapacity to work.
The Bill will be the chief political asset of the Republican party at the coming elections, for which there are 2500 candidates.
