Senate Vote
For Social
Security Boost
BY ROWLAND EVANS JR.

WASHINGTON R-Moving with
unaccustomed speed, the Senate
voted last night to broaden social
security coverage to another
$500, 900 workers and to boost both
benefits and the payroll taxes that
pay for them.
Sen. Knowland of California, the
Republican leader, said in an in.
terview he expects a Senate-H House
conference committee to compro-
mise quickly various differences
so the bill can be sent to President
Eisenhower, who has placed the
legislation high on his must
list.
Though the House and Senate
versions of the social security bill
differ in places, they also agree
in most important respects.
AS passed, benefits would be
boosted an average of Sc a month
for 612 million persons now on the
social security rolls. The annual
amount of wages subject to social
security taxes would rise from
So, 900 to 81 200. This tax is at the
rate of 2 per cent on both EN-.
ployerS and workers.
Maximum monthly payments
for retired individuals would rise
from $S5 to $108.5O. For a couple
the maximum would climb from
$127.50 to $172.75.
The two houses parted company
on restriction of supplemental
earnings by retired folks.
The House voted to allow social
security beneficiaries to make ur
to $1,000 year, compared with
the present month limit, with
out being penalized. The Senate
put the top at $1,000 a year and
agreed to include in these earn
ings only what is received under
employment covered by the SOFIA
security laws. The House Bill
would count earnings from any
source.
The Senate also voted to lower
from IS to IL the age at which all
restrictions are lifted from outside
earnings by beneficiarieS.
Eisenhower had urged extension
of coverage - now applying to g.
million persons - to another II
million.
