One death occurred, that of Fritz Dahl, who died at the age 

 of 74 years and 4 months, after nearly 21 years of faithful ser- 

 vice with the New York Zoological Society. 



The membership of the Pension Fund consisted on December 

 31, 1920, of 122 members, this being an increase of two over 

 that of December 31, 1919. 



The members of the Pension Board look toward the future 

 with confidence, in spite of the increased number of pensioners 

 and the greater amount of pensions paid out than in previous 

 years, and despite the criticism of instability that was directed 

 against the Fund by the Carnegie Foundation. This criticism, 

 the Board believes, is amply refuted by the Treasurer's statement, 

 which is printed in this Report. 



Respectfully submitted, 



William P. Hamilton, Hermann W. Merkel, 



Chairman, Pension Board. Secretary, Pension Board.
