Federal 0Id-Age. Survivors insurance
Under the Sociol Security Act us Amended in 1889
BY SECURITY

THE BENEFICIARlES

If worker leaves no survivor quail
ified for monthly benefits at the time
of his death, a lump sum equal to six
times his monthly benefit may be paid
to a widow, widower, or certain other
relatives; or if there is no such rela-
tive, the person who paid the burial
expenses will be repaid, up to an
amount equal to six times the work
er's benefit.
Claims payable to wage earners
during 1910 include the claims of those
who, under the original law, could
qualify only for lump-sum payments
because they reached age IS before
1912, when monthly insurance pay
ments were scheduled to begin under
the old law, any of them had wage
credits which, under the amended
plan, are sufficient to qualify in 1910.
Others may have earned enough since
they were 65 or may yet do SO.
Other new eligibles are workers
who were IS before 1887 when the
original law went into effect, but who
have been working since and may
soon meet the qualifications now re-
quired for insurance payments.

Labor Laws Passed
In Several Stdtes
Greet Progress Is Made In
Drafting Existing Anti
Labor Bills

Washington, D. C.-The records Of
the State legislatures which have held
sessions in 1910 indicate that organ
lied labor has made considerable
progress both in securing labor leg
islation and defeating anti-labor bills.
In Kentucky the State Federation
of Labor secured the enactment of a
number Of important measures with
the cooperation of Governor Keen
Johnson, who was elected with the
support of the American Federation
of Labor.
The labor bills passed by the legis-
lature and signed by the Governor
included declaration declaring it to
be the State policy that workers shall
have the right to organize, strike and
picket without interference from en-
ployers.
In addition, wage "kick-b backs" were
made illegal, workmen's compensa-
tion benefits substantially increased, a
safety council established to outlaw
dangerous machinery and enforce
safety standards, payment of prevail
ing wages made mandatory for all
public works projects, machinery for
mediation of labor disputes created,
an apprenticeship council formed to
fix standards for training of appren-
tices and provision for improving aid
for the needy blind, dependent child
rem and old age assistance.
In New Jersey and Virginia laws
were enacted instituting boards to
conciliate labor disputes
In the seven legislatures which have
held or are holding sessions there has
been no repetition of the extreme
anti-labor measure enacted in Oregon
last year.

should come out more often.
We had quite lengthy discussion
on whether to abolish our shop col
lectors, but when put to vote of the

collectors. Shop collectors please take
note, you must bring all dues books
to the local for the financial secretary
to stamp when dues are paid and all
collectors must stay for the meeting.
We were pleased to have our natl
onal president, Brother James M.

Really, Ellen, l don't know what |

after watching her five-year-old curly
haired daughter rush in and turn two
or three somersaults.
While awkwardly done, the perform
ance had brought her what she want

her why she was making the different
changes.

light" she said. "That is the way
Mother does."
In the kitchen, also, she made
changes like Mother. These, she said,
were to save steps.
l did not have to feign interest.
Marsha was the most interesting per-
son l had met for some time.
The next day she came to me and
said, "Aunt Ellen, l have something
to show you, when you have time"
"1'm so glad" l returned. 81 have
time right now."
She took me to see some new bios

3. That employers have the right
to petition the board for an election
when they are caught in the middle
of a dispute between contesting
unions. This is only fair.
d. That collective bargaining con-
tracts when entered into shall remain
in force for at least year.
President Green said:
''These amendments will provide a
cure for the maladministration of the
act from which the entire nation has
suffered. In no way does the bill
weaken or impair the fundamental
principles of the act. We therefore.
call on all our affiliated organizations
throughout the country, to register
their support of this measure"
Anticipating that the chief opposi-
ton would be launched against the
"craft unit" amendment which was
taken from the New York Act, Sec
retary- Treasurer Meany declared in
his letter to Mrs. Norton:
"The New York State Labor Rela-
tions Board has disposed of 4,76C
cases up to April /, 1910. The rec
ord shows that in not single one OF
those cases has the CIO protested
against the operation of the so-callec
craft unit provision. The recorc
further shows that there has not beer
one single contest Of this particular
provision of the New York State Act
either before the board or in the
courts during this period of time
Finally the record shows that although
the legislature has met at least once
each year since 1887, no one has even
attempted to amend or alter this pro.
vision.
Compare this record of peaceful
lust and efficient handling Of the col
lective bargaining unit question under
the New York State Act and the ar.
bitrary, unjust and bungling admins
tration of the same problem under the
present National Labor Relations
Board. Such comparison makes the
imperative need for your amendment
obvious.
"The CIO and its sympathizers cal
shout from the housetops but the!
cannot change the facts. And these
facts make their opposition to you1
amendment appear ridiculous"

Henry Fonda
May Return

Contract Clause
Suddenly Has
Meaning
HOLLYWOOD.

HOLLYWOOD.
With the recent announcement
that Thornton Wilder is planning
to write a stage play around his
novel Of Heavens My Destination"
the inside story Of one Of the most
curious contracts ever to be signed
In Hollywood, has come to light.
Some time ago, when Henry Fonda
signed his contract with goth Gen.
tury-Fox. the star OF "Chad Hanna"
was asked whether he ever planned
to return to the stage.
Well" said Fonda, "I might and
I might not, but there's only one
thing that I would drop everything
to do-if Heavens My Destination
Is ever made into a play"
The result OF this is that Fonda's
contract specifies that he can have
leave from the studio at any time,
II he Is asked TO take part In this
one play.
Strange part of this deal is that
II was signed a long time ago.
shortly after the novel was pub
nshed
In agreeing to the clause concern
ing the possibility of Fondas taking
part in play constructed from
Wilders novel, studio executives felt
that they merely were satisfying an
actors curious whim.
But now that the possibility of
the play has become reality, the
studio Is wondering whether it will
be called upon to keep its side Of
the odd bargain.
There's not much chance"
Fonda told a worried studio eXecu-
tive, who appeared on the set of
"Chsd Hanna" to inquire whether
Fonda knew about the new play.
