SECURITY PAYMENT
SPEED.UP URGED
Byrnes' Amendment Would Cut
2.Year Restriction
on States,

A change in the social security law
to enable States to begin paying I'M
employment compensation at the end
Of one instead of two years from the
enactment of their respective unem-
ployment laws was proposed in the
Senate late yesterday by Senator
Byrnes, Democrat, of South Carolina.
At the same time he offered other
amendments under which the Social
Security Board could require States
to establish merit system for State
employees engaged in administering
those features Of social security toward
which the Federal Government pays
part of the cost.
Unemployment benefit funds are
collected through local taxation, but
the Federal Government makes al
locations to cover the administrative
costs. Senator Byrnes emphasized his
bill would not give the Federal board
any voice in the selection of State
employees, but merely require estab-
lishment of personnel standards on a
merit basis and such other methods
of administration as are deemed
necessary for efficient operation OF
the plan. The personnel standards,
he said, also would apply to admin
istration OF State old-age pension
laws, toward which the Federal Gov
ernment contributes.
The pending amendment would
hasten the day of benefit payments
to workers laid of in States that
have had their laws on the books for
less than two years
There are already pending in the
Finance Committee a list of other
changes in the social security law
transmitted by President Roosevelt
during the special session last fall.
