ANNUAL TOWN MEETING


1946]


Also to mark your "Yes" and "No" to the following questions: QUESTIONS QUESTION NO. 1 LAW PROPOSED BY INITIATIVE PETITION


Shall this measure, which by amendments of the General Laws (Ter. Ed.), provides for payment by the Commonwealth of adequate pensions to deserving citizens sixty-five years of age or over in need of relief or support, who shall have resided in the Commonwealth not less than five years immediately preceding the date of application for such pension, and who shall have resided in the Commonwealth continuously for one year immediately preceding said date of application, which is further described as follows:


The measure, by amendments of General Laws (Ter. Ed), c. 6, pro- vides for an old age pension commission of three persons, one to be a qualified physician, another to be an attorney at law and a third to be a non-professional person, who are to be appointed and may be removed for cause by the Governor with the advice and consent of the Council, and are to serve under the Governor and Council. Not more than two members of said Commission shall be members of the same political party. Original appointments of members shall be for one, two and three years respectively, and thereafter appointments are to be for three years. Such members are to devote their whole time to the work of the Commis- sion during business hours and be engaged in no other business, occupa- tion or profession. One of their number is to be designated as chairman by the Governor and shall receive a salary of $6,000, and each other member $5,500 per year, with their necessary expenses. The commission is empowered to make and enforce rules and regulations as it may deem necessary in the performance of its duties and as may be approved by the Governor and Council.


The measure strikes out Chapter 118A of the General Laws (Ter. Ed.), and inserts in its place a new chapter entitled "Adequate pensions for certain aged citizens."


It is provided that pensions hereunder shall be paid from the date of application therefor, but in no event before the applicant reaches the age of sixty-five. The Commission shall render a decision in not less than thirty days from the date of application for a pension or a request for an increase of the amount thereof. Such pension shall, wherever practicable, be paid to the aged person in his own home or in lodgings or in a boarding home, which for the purposes hereof shall include any institution pro- viding shelter, care and treatment for aged persons which is not sup- ported in whole or in part by public funds; provided, that no inmate of such a boarding home or institution shall be eligible for a pension under this chapter while being cared for under a contract. Such pension shall be paid by check or in cash which shall be delivered to the pensioner at his residence, if he so requests, and shall be paid semi-monthly unless the pensioner prefers less frequent payments. Such pension shall be on the basis of need and the amount thereof shall be determined in accordance with budgetary standards established by the Commission. Budgetary standards shall be such as to enable an individual pensioner to maintain a standard of living compatible with decency and health. Such pensions, except as hereinafter provided, shall be at the rate of not less than $48.00 monthly. The pensioner's budget at such times as may be required shall include medical care, if recommended by a recognized physician, eye- glasses, if recommended by a recognized optician, dental care and false teeth, if recommended by a recognized dentist.


In computing the pensioner's payment under this chapter, the Com- mission shall deduct from the pensioner's budget or the minimum pay- ment, whichever is greater, the amount of income the person paid or to


1

TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


be paid a pension hereunder may be receiving from any source, and may deduct therefrom such reasonable amount as may be deemed to represent the financial value of board, lodging or other assistance which is being furnished to such persons from any source.


Upon the death of a person drawing a pension, whose funeral cost does not exceed the sum of two hundred and fifty dollars and in whose estate there are insufficient assets to cover the full cost of the funeral, the Commission shall pay to the funeral director the difference between the assets and the cost of the funeral, a sum not exceeding one hundred and twenty-five dollars.


Expenses for medical, hospital and other services rendered to a pensioner, which remain unpaid at the time of his death or commitment to an institution as an insane person, shall be paid directly to the person rendering such services.


No pension under this chapter shall be discontinued nor shall the amount thereof be decreased until the expiration of fifteen days after notice has been given by the Commission to the pensioner.


Provision is made by which a person receiving a pension may be absent from the Commonwealth on a visit without having such pension suspended.


It is provided that General Laws (Ter. Ed.), c. 273, § 20, which relates to the support of parents by children, shall not apply when parents are eligible to receive a pension.


Provision is made that there shall be set up in the Commission a subdivision of appeals under the jurisdiction of a supervisor of appeals. Any person aggrieved by the failure of the Commission to pay an ade- quate pension under this chapter, or by the failure of the Commission to approve or reject an application for a pension or a request for an increase in the amount thereof, within thirty days after receiving such applica- tion or request, shall have a right to a fair hearing, after due notice, upon appeal to the subdivision of appeals in the form and manner pre- scribed by the commission; provided that such appeal is received by the subdivision of appeals within sixty days after official notice of the action taken by the Old Age Pension Commission has been received by the ap- plicant or pensioner. The decision of the subdivision of appeals shall be final and binding upon the Commission.


The Commission or any interested person aggrieved by any decision in any proceeding before the subdivision of appeals may obtain judicial review of such decision by filing, within twenty days of the date of mail- ing of such decision, a petition for review thereof in the district court within the judicial district wherein the pensioner or the applicant for a pension lives.


In any proceeding for review the findings of the subdivision of ap- peals as to the facts shall be conclusive, such proceedings shall be heard in a summary manner and given precedence over all other civil cases. From the decision of a district court upon review an appeal may be taken to the Supreme Judicial Court.


The possession by an applicant for pension under this chapter of assets consisting of cash, active securities or inactive securities, or any combination of such assets, shall not disqualify him from receiving such pension; provided, that the total of such assets, figuring the present cash value of such inactive securities at the sum determined by the Old Age Pension Commission, does not exceed the sum of $300.


A person is not to be disqualified from receiving a pension because of the ownership of an equity in vacant land from which there is insufficient


89

income to provide for his budgetary needs or minimum payments, or the ownership of an equity in real estate by an applicant who resides thereon or who, in the opinion of the Commission is residing elsewhere because of physical or mental incapacity, provided that if such equity on the basis of assessed valuation exceeds an average of $3,000 during the five years immediately preceding application for the pension, the applicant shall execute a bond in the penal sum for the amount of the equity in excess of $3,000 conditioned on repayment to the Commonwealth of all amounts paid as such pension without interest, such bond to be secured by a mort- gage on the applicant's real estate. Provision is made for the recording of such bond and mortgage without a fee and the apportionment of the proceeds realized from any of them between the Federal government and the Commonwealth.


A person is not to be disqualified from receiving a pension by reason of the ownership of a policy of group insurance or of a policy of insur- ance in an amount not exceeding $1,000 or of a policy of insurance in an amount not exceeding $3,000, having a cash surrender value not in excess of $1,000, if such policy has been in effect not less than fifteen years.


No pension shall be granted to an applicant who at any time within five years immediately prior to the filing of an application for such pen- sion has made an assignment or transfer of property so as to render him- self eligible to such pension. No pension shall be subject to trustee process or assignment, and no applicant for a pension, who knowingly makes any false statement or perpetrates any fraud or deception in relation to his application, shall be granted any pension nor be eligible for one during one year thereafter. A person, his executor or administrator shall be liable in contract to the Commonwealth for expenses incurred by it for a pension paid to such person under this chapter if such person or his estate is in possession of funds not otherwise exempted thereunder.


If an application for a pension under this chapter is effected by the eligibility of the applicant to receive aid under General Laws (Ter. Ed.), c. 115, which relates to State and Military Aid and Soldiers' Relief, the applicant shall be entitled to exercise such options and execute such waiv- ers as may be necessary to receive the pension which he seeks.


All cities and towns in the Commonwealth shall furnish suitable head- quarters for the carrying out of the duties of the commission in such cities and towns.


The measure further provides that there shall be established and set up on the books of the Commonwealth a separate fund, to be known as the Old Age Pension Fund, consisting of receipts credited to said fund under General Laws (Ter. Ed.) c 64B, G. L. (Ter. Ed.) c. 128A, § 15, as amended, G. L. (Ter. Ed.) c. 138, § 27, as amended, and all proceeds of taxes assessed under Acts of 1941, c. 729, 66 9 and 9A.


The Old Age Assistance Fund as in force immediately prior to the effective date of this act is hereby continued in existence, but shall here- after be entitled "The Old Age Pension Fund."


It is provided that all civil service employees in the Department of Public Welfare of the Commonwealth, including the supervisor, referees and employees of the subdivision of appeals in said department or of any city or town, employed in the administration of the Old Age Assistance Law on the effective date of this proposed measure, shall be transferred to the service of the Old Age Pension Commission, retaining their present civil service seniority retirement rights and any step increases from the minimum pay of their grade earned during their service with said depart- ment or said bureaus.


It is provided that all records and property used in the administration of the Old Age Assistance Law and which are the property of the Com- monwealth are to be transferred to the Old Age Pension Commission.
