Social Security Law
Changed by Congress

WASHINGTON The House
Monday whipped through, 372 to
81, a Democratic bill to liberalize
Social Security benefits for wo.
men and disabled workers.

es on employers and employees to
pay for the added benefits.
The bill now goes to the SEN
ate which is expected to sit on it
until next year to permit public
hearings. While not openly op-
posing the bill, the administra-
ton has raised critical questions
about it.
House passage was marked by
bitter COP attack on the take
it-or-leave-it procedure under
which the legislation was consid-
cred.
The Republicans said a rule
barring all amendments and linn
iting debate to 40 minutes was a
"preposterous" and rotten" pro-
cedure considering the import
ance of the measure. But they
had conceded in advance that the
proposal had "too much political
sex appeal" from the House to
reject.
COP Leader Joseph w. Martin
Jr. said the Republicans were
"powerless" to offer amendments
to the bill. He voiced hope the
Senate will give the Bill care.

Despite their complaints, the
measure easily mustered far
more than the two-thirds vote re-
quired for approval under the
rules.
The bill would lower the bene-
fit age from IS to 81 for wives,

Wives would not be eligible for
payment, however, unless their
husbands were and retired.

| The measure would also ex.
tend coverage to an estimated
100000 additional persons by
b anketing in lawyers, dent
lists and all professional workers
not now covered except physi
clans.
To pay for the program, the
tax now paid by workers and EN-
ployers on the first $4,000 in sal
airy would be raised from 2 tc
rs per cent. Taxes on self EN-
ployed would be increased from
3 to 3.75 per cent.

Nichols Medal In Chemistry
Won BY Harvard Professor

Professor Robert 3. Wood

who had a leading part in the
synthesis of quinine, cortisone
and lysergic acid drug
used in studying mental di-
sease has been awarded the

dial Of the American Chemi-
cal Society'S New York Sec
ton it is announced by H.
Burton Lowe, chairman of the
jury Of award.
The gold medal which is
conferred annually to sti-
mulate original research in
chemistry will be presented
to DR.. Woodward at a special
dinner of the section on
March 16 according to Mr..
Lowe, who is vice-preSident of
the Reinhold Publishing Com
pdny new OrK.
One of the nations foremost
organic chemists DR.. Wood
ward has duplicated in the
laboratory a number of ma
lures most complicated sub
stances. He is perhaps best
known for his contributions
to the synthesis of quinine in
1943, at a time when World
War II has cut off imports
of natural quinine. Last year
he aided in the total syn
thesis of lysergic acid, and
of strychnine. He also has
developed a number of steps
in the synthesis of cortisone,
the anti-arthritic hormone.
The Nichols Medal is the
third high honor won by
DR.. Woodward this year. He
received the $1,000 Baekeland
Award of the Society'S North
Jersey Section in January in
recognition of his many out
standing contributions to or
ganic chemistry. Last May, he
became the first recipient of
the $1,000 George Ledlie Prize,
a biennial award given to
the individual at Harvard who,
in the judgment of the uni
