hood of $1,3OO,0OO. Because of the
interest on our RFC loan, plus
rental charges to railroads and the
Union Terminal, delays can be in
excess of $4,000 a month. To meet
this challenge we are offering a
bonus of $3.50 a day for prior de-
livery of the power rectifiers. In
other words, instead of getting
these vitally-necessary power rec
tifiers within 20 months, we hope
to get them in 16 months. On the
other hand, if the successful low
bidder cannot deliver within 20
months as stipulated in his con-
tract, we will exact a penalty of
$50 for each day of delay.
II want to say frankly that upon
the delivery date of these power
rectifiers hinges the completion of
the East Side line. If the bonus is
sufficient inducement to get us
delivery in 16 or II months, our
engineers assure us we will have
the Rapid running by December,
1853. 1t is even possible that both
the East Side and West Side lines
can be placed in operation at that
time - and that will be our goal!

TO THE EDITOR

TO THE EDITOR
A few weeks ago there appeared
in The Mail Box, a letter from this
writer to the editor. We mentioned
the fact that the operators at Win
dermere Station had been given
more safe driver awards than the
operators of all other stations in
the System.
On Thursday, January 31st, at
the annual CTS Safety Award
Dinner in the Carter Hotel these
same operators were given a gold
award for having operated 1,O10,-
207 man-hours in 467 days without
a personal injury accident.
1t was the first time in its his
tory that the Cleveland Transit
System had received gold award
from the American Transit Asso-
citation. The gold award was pre-
sented to and accepted by Edmund
Gorski, superintendent of Winder-
mere Station.
1t surely is record of safety of
which Superintendent Gorski and
his personnel might we'll be proud.
We are certain all East Clevelands
extend their congrations to these
operators who have and are doing
so much to make our city a truly
safe community for it's riding pub
lie, pedestrians and motorists.

At THE TIME this is written it
seems entirely safe to name
the candidates for the presidency
on both the Democratic and Re
publican tickets in he political
race of 1852.

term, but has so broadly in
timated that he proposes to do
SO, that there can be no chance
of miss in naming him as tie
Democratic nominee.
His is the last chance any one

BY careful management of the
family's meagre savings, plus the
monthly survivors benefit pay
ments, the widow had been able to
keep the son in school. He finished
his vocational school training. He
took a job, and then he married.
Now he had started his own bust
ness, and so is one of more than
four million sef-employed who are
for the first time coming under so
cial security.
This particular interview was Of
unusual significance in that it is an
outstanding example Of a generation
protected by old-age and survivors
insurance building social security
protection for the next generation.
It is proof that social security has
come Of age.
In January, 1897, when the pro-
gram was inaugurated it was frankly
an innovation and an experiment.
For several years, its progress was
necessarily slow, and its impact on
family economy was limited. Bene-
ficiaries added to the rolls did not
average over a quarter Of million
persons yearly and coverage was
restricted to persons employed in
commerce and industry.
Fifteen years, and the several
amendments to the original act,
have changed the picture. The wild
ow and the son in our story are num-
bered among the three out of every
four mothers and children who now
have this insurance protection.
Moreover, not only jobs in COM
merce and industry, but most other
kinds of work are now covered by
the social security law.
In brief, the old-age and survivors
insurance program under federal
social security now affects three out
of every four workers in the nation.
Sixty-three million persons gain
fully employed or self-employed are
in work covered by the law.
OBVIOUSLY, fifteen years of op-
GRAFTON has not been a sufficient
length of time to bring old-age in
surance protection to even a major
ity of the people past IS. However,
at the close of the fifteenth year of
the program, 100000 people were
receiving monthly old-age and sur
vivors insurance payments.
How much in benefit payments
does this mean to the average work.
er and his family? For the worker
who after 1850 earns $3.50 a month
his personal monthly benefit pay
ment will be S72.0O; he and his wife
will get total of SOB monthly, and
in case of his death his widow will
get S54.40.
The scale of benefit payments
ranges from minimum of $40
monthly to an individual to maxi
mum family benefit payment of $3.50.
AS earnings up to $500 a year are
now credited to a workers social
security account, the average bene-
fit payment will steadily increase
in the years Immediately ahead.
1t is not difficult to evaluate
the effect Of this social insurance
program on the average commu-
nifty and the average family. AS in
the case of the young man men,
toned at the beginning of this ar
ticle, it is making it possible to hold
many homes together; as illustrated
in his case also, it is enabling one
generation to acquire the means to
build the same protection for the
next generation. This, as old-age
and survivors insurance enters it's
sixteenth year Of continuous opera
ton, is the most significant achieve
ment of the program.

SOCIAL SECURITY

A young man walked into a social

said: "I've just started to work for
myself and I want to get straight
on my rights and obligations under
old-age survivors insurance.
The conversation developed some
interesting facts. His father had

was brought under social security
when the original law went into eff
feet in 1887. At the time of his death
in the forties, he was fully insured.
