DEMOCRATS ADOPT
RIGID GAG TO PUT
RELIEF THROUGH
Continued From First Page.)

Continued From First Page)
American Medical Association and the
secretary of the American Association
of Social Workers.
Administration leaders in both
houses are prepared to speed consid-
Grafton Of the bill. The President has
urged that the legislation be dis
posed of as promptly as possible, since
the cooperation Of the States is re-
Quired to put the system of old-age
pensions and of unemployment insur-
ance into effect. The Legislatures OF
A States are to meet this Winter and
will be in a position to take action
as soon as the Federal Government
has its national law on the statute
books
Despite increasing sentiment in Con-
gress to liberalize the bill, particularly
as it deals with old-age pensions,
administration leaders last night ex-
pressed confidence they would be able
to hold the measure within the limits
proposed by the President. Speaker
Byrns of the House said he believed
the Presidents program would be
strictly followed. Senator Harrison,
who will have charge of the bill in the
Senate, expressed the same opinion.
Heavy Cost Is Cited.
These leaders are warning members
that the administration bill already
provides for considerable appropria-
tions-$98, 500, 900 for the fiscal year
1886 and $218, 100000 for succeeding
years and if these are increased the
President is likely to demand some
provision be made for raising the addi-
tional money through new taxation.
Nevertheless, the demand that the
Federal Government make greater
provision for old-age pensions con-
tinues. Senator Borah Of Idaho, one
of the first to criticize the limit Of
Federal contribution for old-age PEN
sions-$15 a month-said yesterday
an amendment would be offered when
the bill reaches the Senate to raise
this amount to $50 or $40 a month.
He takes the position, too, that many
of the States will not be in position
financially to contribute much, If
anything, to old-age pensions. For
that reason, the Federal contribution
may, in his opinion, be all that is
available for a time. If that is the
case, then efforts may be made to
amend the bill so that the States will
not be compelled to match dollar for
dollar with the Federal Government,
at least temporarily.
The members Of both Houses are
being swamped with letters indorsing
the Townsend old-age pension plan,
which originated in California. DR..
F. L. Townsend, originator Of the
plan, is here. 1t is expected he will
request a hearing before the House
and Senate committees during the
consideration of the bill. Senator
Harrison said that undoubtedly DR..

GRANT OF POWER
T0PRES|DENT HIT
Walsh Says Only Emergency
Justifies Course-Wagner
Bill Control Fought.

A protest against extending further
extraordinary powers to the President,
except in emergency legislation. was
voiced by Senator David I. Walsh of
Massachusetts yesterday afternoon at
q dinner meeting attended by men,
bers of Congress and Government ex-
perts, held at the Cosmos Club under
auspices of the Independent Legis-
lative Bureau.
The meeting was held for non-par-
tisan discussion of the old-age pen
sion provisions of the Wagner bill and
Senator Walsh's protest arose over
the clause placing in the hands of
President Roosevelt the power OF de-
Gliding the executive organization
which will administer the act.
F. E. r. A. Control Criticized.
It is provided that it shall first be
administered by the F. E, R. A. This
was criticized as conveying the i'm
preston that the recipient of Fed
eral old-age pension is an object OF
charity. 1t is also provided that the
President may set up an organization
to take over the administration of
the act, or designate some already
existing bureau or department, at
will.
1T is unsound," said Senator
Walsh, ito allow the President to
put this under anybody he pleases
It is not emergency legislation. Let
us put up a permanent structure. not
a makeshift to be shifted from one
department to another on whim.
"I don't think anybody on Capitol
Hill is willing to extend to the Pres
ident any more power. except in case
of an emergency. In an emergency
we should extend power literally, but
We should be critical about the emer-
gency."
Elliott Explains Bill.
The provisions Of the Wagner bill
as to old-age pensions were explained
by Thomas Eliot assistant to Secre-
tary of Labor Perkins and member
C the committee of experts that
drew up the social security report
upon which the bill was based.
There are three provisions, he ex-
planned, to meet the various classes
of need. First is that designed tc
help the 100000 now over 65-ths
Federal Government meeting State
appropriations to the extent of ST.
per person. Second is the provision
for old-age annuities to be financed by
a universal tax on pay rolls of l pei
cent, one-half to be paid by the EN-.
ployer and half by the employe. But
this fund must be built up for five
years before the Government will bt
in a position to pay the annuities
Third is the sale of voluntary annui-
ties by some such system as the wal
savings stamp method.
Mr.. Eliot was insistent that aside
from the first provision the old-age
pension system set up under the bill
will be self-supporting.
Evening star., 1935-01-20

Townsend would be heard if he made
such request.
1t is confidently predicted that the
Townsend plan. which calls for
S200-a-month pension to every per-
son so years of age or over, Will not
be adopted. Administration leaders,
including the President and Miss
Perkins, have turned their backs on
the plan. 1t would entail vast ex-
penditure each year, reaching S20,-
000, 100000 or more. Miss Perkins
has declared it unsocial as we'll as un-
workable. The Townsend plan is in
legislative form in a bill offered in
the House by Representative Nc
Groaty of California. McGroaty in
sists the bill will have many support
ers and that he is confident he can
obtain 218 signatures to petition to
discharge the committee from its con-
Sideration and bring it before the
House The House rules have recently
changed so that a majority of the
House membership musts sign such a
petition instead of las, the old rule
The change was made in order to head
on votes in the House on bills con-
sidered undesirable.
Letters in support of the Townsend
bill are coming from every section.
New England Senators and Repre-
sentatives are receiving literally thou
sands of Endorsements of the Town
send plan. So are members from
Western States.
The two proposals that threaten to
override the Presidents budget pro-
posals and increase appropriations
heavily are increased old-age pensions
and the cash payment of the soldiers
bonus. Both these measures will be
handled by the Ways and Means
Committee of the House and the
Finance Committee of the Senate. It
is conceded that the bonus bill prob
ably will pass both House and Senate.
The question is whether this measure,
which would call for an outlay of
about $780, 100000, can be passed
over presidential veto. The Presi-
dent has indicated that he will dis
approve such measure.

Savings in Other Items.


It has been pointed out by friends
of the legislation, however, that there
would be a number Of savings in other
items to be considered in determining
the net cost Of the old-age pension
plan. It is believed that some of the
recipients of old age pensions would
be taken off of relief rolls, and that
the population of the District Home
for the Aged. at Blue Plains, would
be reduced, with a resulting reduction
in maintenance costs. Future capital
investments for enlargement of Blue
Plains also would be avoided, it was
pointed out.
The national bill also contemplates
Federal aid to the States for care Of
crippled children and for maternal and
child health work. District officials
have made known in the last few days
that they will study closely all phases
of the national security plan, as It
progresses through Congressional Com
mittees, and be prepared to suggest
appropriate local measures.
