43:9-38.  Payment;  contributions to other retirement systems
    The payment of pensions granted pursuant to this act shall be provided for in the budget of the employer granting the pension.  If the employer was contributing to a retirement system on behalf of said person, the adoption of the provisions of this act and the payment of pension or other benefits provided hereunder shall be considered as a discharge of the employer's liability to the retirement system with respect to such person and his widow so  that a credit for the discharge of such liability shall be reflected in the  subsequent valuations of the employer's liabilities under the retirement system  for all other employees.

    Upon the widow's acceptance of the pension granted pursuant to this act, and  as a condition thereof, the widow shall pay over to the employer the value of  her deceased husband's contribution and interest which was credited to his  account in any retirement system established by the State or any of its  political subdivisions in order to defray part of the cost of the pension to be  paid by the employer.
