Senate Passes
Bill to Extend Old
Age Security to
More Workers

WARRINGTON CAMP By a
vote Of 81 to 2, the Senate pass
ed the social security bill last
Tuesday which would extend and
improve the Federal old-age sur
vivors insurance system, and a.
mend the public-assistance and
child-welfare provisions Of the So
cial Security act.
Before voting on the bill, the
Senate took action on some 80
amendments, approximately half
of which were approved and the
rest rejected.
Among the major provisions
passed were the extension of old
age and survivors insurance COW
erage to some 1O-million addition
al persons. New groups included
five-million non-farm self-em-
ployed; one million regular en-
ployed agriculture workers; one
million domestic workers.; about
100000 state and local govern
ment employees and 1000 Fed
eral civilian workers not now un-
der retirement plans, as we'll as
some 100000 employees of nom
profit organizations.
Among the amendments reject
ed were the Leham amendment to
include Puerto Rico and the Vir-
gin Islands in the public assistance
program, as we'll as his amend
ments to provide that the Federal
government pay half the medical
costs incurred by states for GER
tain recipients including all agent
drivers except those distributing
dairy products, as we'll as home
workers as employees and certain
domestic servants.
The Senate passed bill agreed
to increase the amount of wages
subject to Social Security taxes
from $4,000 under the present law
to $4,000. Other provisions of
the bill lift minimum individual
benefits from $40 monthly to $25,
exceut for those with very low

A FAMILY MATTER. There
used to be laws in China which
made a man think twice before
going into bankruptcy. Debts OF
any member of the family were
a DISGRACE and all the family
worked like beavers to get them
repaid, and we'll they might, for
if a man failed for more than
$1,000 he was EXILED and for a
failure of $4,000 he was sentenced
to have his head CUT OFF!

WELL BRED. For generations
good game dogs have been trained
to fetch birds and small game and
bring them back unchanged to
their master. So strict has been
this training that through several
%N~ N& *H'
generations there has been instill-
ed in their minds the idea that it
would be a DISGRACE to eat the
game. In fact, although the dogs
will eat with relish beef or lamb
they CAN'T be tempted to touch
the meat or even a BONE from
game.

A lob that involves direct military

If government agencies and prl-

strike LABELED AS
security THREAT
ENDED ON JULY Il

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Aug. 9-R
Union leaders were surprised to-
day to hear that Secretary OF De-
tense johnson had labeled a Far
banks Plumbers strike as a national
security threat.
There isn't any strike here; IL was
settled July II,
The cabinet member was quoted
as bracketing Fairbanks with An
chorage. the other active major
Alaska military center. Plumbers at
Anchorage have been on strike since
July 26.
Union Business Agent Carl Stats
burg said plumbers here are ready
to 90 to work, but have not been
called for Jobs. He said many men
are idle because construction JOBS
are not getting started, as they were
sunposed to. He said dozens OF mer
could go to work at a moments
notice.
Red Tape Blamed
Various factors, including rec
tape. are blamed for the delay.
Union leaders expressed the opin-
ion there was too much delay II
letting bids for military projects
including housing; that they came
so late that it has been Impossible
to get materials in time for the
short far northern construction sea-
son.
Contractors spokesman said the
hold back has been due to lapoi
strikes at the critical season Ca GER
penters' strike ended the first week
in july after Secretary johnson
denounced it,, to government rec
tape and now to lack of materials.
Specific Example
An office executive on the Lado
Air Base project cited a specific
example. He said a crane was
needed. 1t finally was obtained.
Now it can't be used until gov
eminent permission is obtained
which will take about 10 days.
He said the delay in ordering ma
terials was due to uncertainty abou
labor, and now shipments are
slowed up because of the Korean
emergency and more red tape.
Contractors spokesman said they
now are waiting for materials anC
hope to be back on schedule before
the end of the season if materials
become available.
