The
Rambler
6. o. P. Controls
Senute-Soys Here
By JACK JONAS

This won't help salve the
wounds of battered Democrats
who went down swinging with
Stevenson, but it seemS-after
a sort of recount-that the
Republicans also control the
Senate. For the moment, any,
how.
AS of today, the Senate roll
shows 40 Republicans entitled
to be measured for togas as
against Al Democratic mem
bers of this exclusive clan. OF
course, it's just a temporary
arrangement, but even so the
G. o. P. hasn't had it so good
in the Senate in a couple of
years.
There'd have to be a special
session some time between now
and January to get anything
done under this ideal G. o. P.
situation. Not exactly ideal,
maybe, because there would
always be the House to worry
about.
This G. o. P. majority comes
about because of the election
of Senator Cooper, Republic
can, to fill the unexpired
term of the late Senator Bark
ley, Kentucky Democrat, and
the election of Senator Rever-
comb, Republican, to complete
the term of the late Senator
Kilgore, West Virginia DEM
ocrat.
Both of these Republican
gentlemen went on the Sen
ate payroll as of 1901 am.
Wednesday, November Z.
They won't become full
fledged Senators until they're
sworn in, and that couldn't
be done between now and
January unless there's a spe-
cial session, and it doesn't
seem likely now that there's
going to be any special Ses-
sion.

Suqe?

Some of the fellows in the
United Givers Fund office are
arguing about this one. Cecil
B. DeMille, the Hollywood di-
rector, autographed a UGF
flag to be given as a door prize
at a volunteers meeting. On
it he wrote:
what you give you can
take with you;
What you keep, you leave
behind"
One group at UFG argues
that that's original DeMille.
The others say it's vaguely
familiar, but they can't place
it.

History

Mark Catudal, reading
our piece about the sight
seers at the battle of Fort
Stevens in 1864, was re-
minded of the story about
one famous sightseer who
went to see that battle.
1t was President Lincoln,
who stood on a parapet with
Confederate bullets whizzing
about him. A young cap
tain, noting the tall civilian
in that dangerous spot,
shouted:
"Get down, you fool, be-
fore you get shot,"
The young captain was
Oliver Wendell Holmes, later
Associate Justice of the Su-
preme Court of the United
States.

Ons. They are as follows:

visions. They are as follows:
First. 1t provides for bene-
fits for persons covered by social
security who are totally disabled
and who have reached the age
of so years. Payments would. be-
gin in July 1857. l see a great
field of controversy in the deter
mination of when and if per-
son is totally disabled. Such has
been the experience of. countless
individuals seeking to establish
this point to meet the require
ments of Workmen's compensa-
ton and Veterans Administers
ton laws.
Second. 1t reduces from IS
to 81 the age which women may
qualify for payments as follows:
(a) If they are widows or
surviving, dependent mothers OF
covered workers, they are ell
gible for full payment.
(b) If they are wives of work
ers covered by the Social
Security Act or covered workers
themselves, they may at age 81
elect to receive 80 percent of the
payment. It should be pointed
out that they then do not be-
come eligible to receive the full
amount at later date. This
would be effective November
1856.
Third. Increased contribu-
tions would be required to meet
the increased costs. Effective
January l, 1857, taxes would be
increased one-fourth of ! per-
cent for each employer and en-
ployee, making the rate pa per-
cent on each. The self-employ-
ment tax will be increased from
3 to 1873 percent.
Fourth. Eligibility for pay
ments under Aid to Dependent
Children program is broadened
to include first cousins, nepheWS
and nieces.
Fifth. Beginning in taxable
year 1856, coVerage IS extended
to professional groups, except
physicians.
Sixth. Formerly farm opera
tors must have earned net in
come of $400. Under the new bill
where gross income is $1,000 or
less, tWo-thirds of the gross in
come may be considered as net
income for social security pur-
poses. Where the gross income
is over 1900, it is deemed that
| the net income is at least Sl,20O
for computation purposes. This
provision is to be effective on
the 1857 income.
Seventh. Agricultural work
ers are covered after they earn
$3.50 or work 20 days or more
during a calendar year.
Eighth. Under this bill, the
Federal Government also in
creases funds available for mat
ching State aid in public assist
ance programs. This would apply
to such programs as aid for the
needy aged, aid to the blind, ano
aid to disabled dependent chill
dren.
Ninth. The new bill also
would provide Old-age and Sur
vivors Program aid for depend
ent children beyond the age Of
l8 if such children are disabled
