holding up their hands in holy hor-
ror and making the welkin ring to
their denunciations of this proposal.
Now comes the Orange county law

for dependent mother or father, II
there is no widow or orphan.
Benefits Increased
"In other Words" Mr.. Minker
said, benefits have been increased
for the workers now old and for
workers who have dependent fami-
lies. (For example: Tom Smith, who
is now 65, may begin to receive
monthly benefits in 1910 if he has
earned as much as $50 in each of
any six quarters since 1886, on a
job that is covered by the law. If
he has been working all three years
up to 1910 at an average of 800 a
month, he can draw $25.75 a month
fOI the rest of his life. If he is mar
ried. and if or when his wife is 65.
the two of them can draw S3S.63 a
month. Upon the death of her hus-
band the widows benefit would be
three-fourths of his monthly pay
ment of S25.75. or $1931 each month
as long as she lives.
"A younger man can build up
larger income for his old age: mean
while his family is protected in case
of his death. Suppose Paul Brown
