NEW DEAL WILL
SEEK BROADER
SECURITY LAW
Already Ranks This as
High on Unjust" List
for Next Congress
BY ARTHUR r. OeGREVE
Copyright, 1888, United Press)

WASHINGTON. July 5. (UP)
The administration will place high
on its list of "must" legislation in
the 10Th congress reviSiOnS in the
Social Security Act which will
bring millions Of agricultural
workers under its protection and
pay larger benefits to those al
ready covered, it was learned last
night.
Widespread changes in state en-
abling laws involved in the social
program also are expected next
year when most legislatures are
scheduled to meet. Joint federal
state studies on many phases Of
the project now are in progress
and reports are expected IN mid
winter.
President Roosevelt is in the
forefront Of the drive. He has i'm
pressed on congress the need of
revising the federal law to meet
defects found during the three
years it has been in operation. He
recommended certain changes to
Chairman Arthur J. Altmeyer of
the security board and asked his
group to prepare revisiOnS for sub
mission to congress before it re-
convencs in January.
Altmeyer now is in Europe and
is examining the old world meth
cd of dealing with the most VeXing
problem facing his grOup-hOw to
keep track of the movements of
the transient or nOmad worker.
These employees abroad are check
ed through a stamp system. and
plan of this kind probably will be
included among recommendations
placed before congress.
Proposed reviSionS in the act,
it is understood, will rot embrace
the "pay-aS- we-go" method Of Sc
curity tax collections and eXpen-
ditures demanded bv Republicans
and some economists. This group
is fearful that the muIti-billion
dollar reserve account which will
be piled up by security taxes, will
prove to great a temptation to
administration Spenders and will
be diverted to other purposes.
The Presidents attitude toward
the "pay-as-we-go" proposal was
DISPLAYED at press conference
when ne laughingly DISPOSED of the
plan with a query, What is it,"
The administration likewise has
turned deaf ear to employer de-
mands that the security taxes be
reduced.
The proposed immediate changes
in the act were explained by Mary
W. Dewson. a member of the so
cial security board. m the Social
Service Review. They are:
i. Extension Of the benefits OF
the act to 100000 workers now
exempt. Among the first groups
to be brought in will be seamen
and other workers employed on
American vessels and employees Of
certain banking institutions.
2. Removal of the arbitrary age
limitation on the accumulation OF
old age benefit credits.
3. Simplifcation of death pay
ments. =,
4. Permit earlier payment OF
unemployment compensation ben
efts in states which were late IN
passing their unemployment COM
penSation laws.
5. Changes in the "merit rat
ing system under which an en-
ployer with favorable employ
ment record may have his rate of

the revenue act.
contribution to a state unemploy-
mcnt compensation fund reduced.
The administration has been
urged by the American Federation
Of Labor to revise the unemploy-
mcnt compensation laws to deal
specifically with 4 problem affect
ing strikers. All states but Penn
sylvania. Rhode Island and New
York bar compensation to strlk-
ers. and these states pcnalize
strikers by forcing them to wait
from three to six additional weeks
before they can receive aid.
Since the federal government
must approve state compensation
plans before administrative ex-
penses are advanced from the
treasury, the Federation wants
written into a statute prohlbl-
ton against denial of benefits to
workers engaged in Legitimate"
strike. This would plunge the adj
ministratiOn into the thick OF the
duel between the Federation and
the rival Committee for Industrial
Organization and there appears
no prospect that the proposal will
be accepted.
Mrs. DewsOn said the ultimate
goal of the security program is to
"cover everyone who works for
wages" She noted that one argu-
ment against inclusion of agricul-
tural workers is that the farmers
are not getting their due share of
the national income, and that con-
tributions to old age insurance
would, therefore, be a disprOpor-
tomato burden upon both farm
, employers and farm laborers.
"If this is true-and it may
well be-then there is all the
more reason for facing the issue
now. when agriculture is moving
toward what may prove to be
pretty thorough reorganization
she wrote.

FOUR POWER PACT
 NEGOTIATIONS

Paris, Oct. 31- (UP) - Foreign Minister Georges Bonnet opened to- day series of conversations which was regarded as the prelude to four power negotiations for general Eu- ropean appeasement.
 Bonnet received his first report from Andre Francois-Poncet, who has been transferred from the Ber- lin embassy to Rome, on his last conversations with Fuehrer Adolf Hitler and high German officials.
 They talked at the war office. Bonnet then returned to the foreign office and conferred in succession with Sir Eric Phipps, British ambas- sador; Auguste Coulondre. new French ambassador to Berlin; the Italian charge d'affaires, Renato Prunas, and the German ambassa- dor, Count Johannes von Welczeck.
 Reports have been circulated in diplomatic quarters that Poncet re- turned froyn Berlin with sugges- tions for a non-aggfession pact or gentlemen's agreement similar to the Joint declaration at Munich by Hitler and Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain of Great Britain.

When 4365 people in all parts of the State of Connecticut dur ing the last two months were ask- ed the question Are you better off today than you were two years ago?" the overwhelming chorus was "No", according to the rec suits of a survey just completed by the Republican Women of the State. The interviews were made in more than l25 towns. Announce ment of the results of the polls are being released daily by the Republican State Central Com- mittee.
 Confirming the Republican con- tention that the paramount issue of the day is the great demand of the people for Recovery, eighty five out of every hundred of the people interviewed said that in 1888 they were not so well off as they were in 1886, and hundreds were indignant that the question was even asked them.
