SECURITY ACT
DASKED FOR
3,4OO,OO0
Board Urges Congress
To Extend Benefits
OF Bill Widely
international News Service

Extension of the scope of the
old-age benefit provisions to EN-.
brace about 100000 additional
persons, was recommended to Con-
gress today by the Social Security
Board. The chief proposals are:
/. Liberalization Of the law to
enable persons, now between so
and IS years old, to continue
work until they have established
q minimum Of $4,000 to their
credit in the OId-age benefits
fund, thus emitting them to
monthly benefit payments. This
would affect about 100000 per.
sons.
2. Similar extensions to per.
sons already IS years of age, who
are eligible now to receive only
small, lump sum payment of .
few dollars. This would apply to
about 100000 persons.
FOR BANK employees
3. Extension to cover employees
Of State and national banks
under the Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn, 100000 affected.
4. Extension to cover mari
time workers under United
States ship registry.
5. Inclusion of workers earn
ing their living from tips and
other gratuities, such as walters,
pOrters and belI-bOys, 100000.
Social Security registration
numbers are now being issued to
the 100000 relief workers on the
Works Progress Administration
rolls, and 100000 from relief rolls
under other Govern
mental agency work-relief pro-
grams. While no provision has
been made for these workers to
establish any fund from which to
receive old-age benefit payments,
the cards are being issued so they
will have their Identification cards
if they receive jobs in private en-
ployment.
The board already is receiving
thousands of claims for lump-sllm
benefit payments to survivors, or
estates, of persons who have died
this year after reaching the age
of SIS, and have contributed from
their earnings since the first Of
the year. All of these claims are
small, most of them only a few
dollars, according to Leroy
Hodges, director of the Bureau Of
Old-Age Benefits.
$4,000 Claims Due
Hodges estimated about 100000
persons, or their estates, will be
eligible to receive lump sup pay
ments this, year. About $4,000
will involve payments to workers
reaching the age of IS, and 1885,
600 will be death benefit payments
to estates of workers who die be.
fore reaching the age of IS. Many
of these may not apply because
of the small sum involved.
The monthly benefit payments
do not become available until
January l, 1912. Meanwhile. per
sons reaching the age of IS, are
eligible for lump-sum payments on
their accrued contributions to the
fund.

Already Mrs. Warfield has

Of the Dukes meals, especially an
swering his preferences. He is
exceptionally fond of toast. Mrs.
Warfield always inspects it and
often sends it back if it is not
just to his liking. Frequently she
orders his favorite turtle soup.
In other ways she seeks to
make him feel comfortable and
at home. She gracefully defers
to his opinion and invariably di,

The Duke wants his fiancee at
his side constantly. He pays her
many little attentions. and at the
dinner table playfully flirts with
