does not prefer to have a tax levied
on his pay. All employees have the
deduction made, and of course, match
Cd with a contribution from their en-
ployer.
All employees, however low their
wage, are subject to the pay roll de-
duction. The same is true at the
very top range of tie salary lists, ex-
cept that the highly paid executives
of companies can carry annultles
only on the first $4,000 of their IN
come.
In the A. B. C. Co., for example,
everyone in the employ of the COM
pany, from President w. 7. Blank
down to the lowest paid office boy, is
subject to a compulsory pay roll tax
deduction. President Blank of course
pays only on the first $4,000 of his
salary, while the office boy pays on
the full amount of his salary.
One of the interesting features or
the act is the disposition of the funds
paid in by workers who for some
reason suspend their payments.
If You Marry
This is particularly interesting to
women stenographers and other
young women working in business and
industry. A high percentage OF sucn
, women workers quit their jobs after
few years to get married. Suppose
a 20-ycar-old woman stenographer
pays her pay roll tax for five years
| and then marries and quits her job.
She cannot receive any part OF the
amount she has paid on her annuity
until she reaches age 65. If she dies

Plain Dealer
It seems fair TO assume that much
of the confusion now raging around
the Social Security Act is due TO a
failure to understand it's provisions.
The act itself is divided into three
sections, the first providing for fede-
raj grants-in-aid to the states to assist
them in financing their existing old
age pension systems. The federal
government in no case will grant more
than SIS per. month per individual to
the states, but it will match dollar for
dollar state old age pension allowance
up to that point. Many states, there
fore, pay qualifying old age pension
beneficiaries $50 a month, SIS of
which is contributed by the federal
government and SIS by the state.
The second part Of the act is the
so-called old age pension section.
Much of the confusion now swirling
around this section would be cleared
up were it called by it's proper name.
In reality it is a government annuity
plan, whereby the federal government
pays out at the age of 65 benefits to
workers who have built UP reserve
through their own and their employ
ers' contributions.

you WILL DRAW AT AGE OF s5:

in the meantime, as a high percent
age of women do, her heirs become
eligible to her claims.
If an employee becomes unemployed
for a time and then goes back to
work, his annuity payments are pick
ed up upon his return to employ
ment, but his annuity at age IS is re-
duced because he missed some of his
payments. i
The Social Security Act provides
that the funds paid by employers and
employees emp in the form Of taxes shall
treasury t as internal revenue, But the
intention andeTthe assumption is
that these funds will be set aside

Here Are Social Security Facts
Three Main Detectives Of National Act Summarized

The third section Of the act deals
with unemployment insurance. States
which have provided no unemploy-
ment insurance setup will not have
the bcnefit Of this provision.
Cash Kept at Washington
Payroll assessments paid by en-
ployera in such states under this sec
ton of the act this year are going to
Washington ana remaining there un-
til a state unemployment insurance
law is passed by the legislature.
In addition to the feGeral Social
Security Act, many of the states al
ready have state old age pension acts.
THIS state old age pension acts will
continue to be operated by the states,
even after the * eral act is put into
operation and begins to make pay
nIents. These state old age pension
acts are for people already past co or
So years Of age, who cannot benefit
frctn the federal act because they will
not be employed any more, and there
fore can make no contributions of
their own toward their own security
in old age.
Presumably such states acts also
will have to be continued for the bene
fit OF those workers not eligible to
participate in the federal old age pen
SIGN or unemployment insurance plan
They viii grow old just like any other
workers but will have built up no Sc
curity in old age under government
auspices.
It is important, also, to keep in
mind that only about half OF the to-
tal OF painfully employed people in
the country are eligible for old age
annuities under the existing law.
In order to write bill that would
| get around constitutional objections,
the Social Security Act provides for
the financing of the old age annuity
section by an excess tax on employers
and an income tax on the Individual
workers. 1t was believed necessary
to levy an ordinary excise form of tax
on the employers to avoid the legal
contention that he was being taxed
| to make payments to another, and
therefore having his property confis-
| Gated for the benefit of another class.
| That was one Of the grounds on which
the Agricultural Adjustment Act was
found unconstitutional by the supreme
court.
Worker Can't Deduct
Because Of the different nature of
the on the employer and that on the
individual worker the employer can
deduct the amount of his payments
from his normal income tax, while
the individual worker cannot deduct
his payments from his income tax.
However, a small proportion of the
workers covered by the act pay a
federal income tax.
The annuity section of the law is a
compulsory one. The employe has no
i choice as to Whether he prcfers OF

% far as is known, Baker has no OPP

instead, he is writing all of the mem
ers of the 1887 House asking their

Since the office o. principal clerk

Baker has had this experience. In his

EXAMPLES GIVEN By THE
LAWS SUPPORTERS

A person 35 years old enters the
system January, 1887 and remains
for 80 years. If he earns an aver
age of $100 q month during that
period he will receive monthly
pension from the government of
$3.50 for the rest OF his life.
III.
A person 60 years old enters the
system, January, 1887, and remains
for five years. If he earns an aver
age of S100 a month during that
period he will receive monthly
pension from the government OF
$3.50 for the rest Of his life.
The younger person would have
paid only $500. The employer like
wise would have paid only 5000. If
the employee lives out a normal life
expectancy he or she will receive
in benefits $4,000.
The older person would have
paid only $40 and the employer an
equal sum, but, he or she would
receive in benefits, if he or she
lives out a normal life expectancy,
a total of $4,000.
