House Debate Due
Soon on Increased
Security Benefits
House Committee Backs
Federal Contribution
OF $40 q Month
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated PreSS.
Proposals to broaden the scope
and increase the amount of social
security benefits appear likely to
come before the House next Tuesday
or Wednesday.
The Ways and Means Committee
completed its work on the proposed
changes last night by increasing the
maximum Federal contribution
toward old-age assistance payments
from SIS to $40 a month.
These contributions must be
matched dollar for dollar with State
funds. Thus, in States providing as
much as $40 month for needy old
persons. they would make possible
total payments of $40 per person.
The old-age assistance grants,
which 60 to needy persons, are dis
tinct from oldage pension payments
financed by taxes on employers and
employees.
Among the committee-app
proposals is one to freeze the old-age
pension tax at l per cent on both
employers and employees for the next
three years. AS the law now stands.
the rate will advance to IL per cent
on January l. The committee rec
commended extending the pension
system coverage to 200, 900 employees
of banks which are members of the
Federal Reserve system and to $780,
900 to 5000 maritime workers.
A last-minute change would give
Puerto Rico the same benefits as
those provided to States for depend
ent children, maternal and child
welfare and public health. Puerto
Rico was not voted old-age assist
ance.

Commerce on Thursday night.
The common query when bust
nessman meets businessman today
is: How are your labor conditions?"
The troubles which many have en-
countered, under the administra-
ton of the National Labor Rela-
tons Act, have made them cautious
about open criticism either of the
act or of the National Labor Re-
lations Board. Particularly is this
true Of employers who have cases
before the Labor Relations Board.
They fear, it is said, that if they
come to Washington and urge
amendments to the act, they will
be charged with being unfriendly
to labor, unfriendly to the prin-
ciple of collective bargaining, and
their labor cases will be prejudiced.
Employers have found it impos-
sible to get rid of workers who have
showed themselves inefficient or
Worse-Without being raked over
the Goals before the Labor Board or
its representatives on charges Of
endeavoring to prevent collective
bargaining and union activity among
their employees. They have been
compelled to spend thousands Of
dollars in lawyers fees. to spend
weeks in hearings before Labor
Board representatives, in efforts to
get justice in such matters-and
they have been met with every kind
of obstacle which the board and it's
representatives have been able to
throw up.
President Cold to Changes.
The President, however, has given
no indications he will agree to
amendments to the Labor Relations
Act at this time. Indeed, the indi-
cations are all the other way; that
the administration is against any
amendments to the act until the
whole range of American industry
shall have been organized in labor
unions. 1t was both noticeable and
interesting that Secretary Hopkins,
in press conference yesterday. gave
no hope whatever that the admins
tration would seek, or even favor,
notifications of the Labor Act.
Employers who insist they are not
opposed to collective bargaining
with their workers say they have
| been placed in straight jacket,
nevertheless, by the operation of the
Labor Relations Act. If the admin
istration really wants to put idle
dollars to work, they say, one of the
| most practical steps would be to
