House Leaders
Push Depressed
Area Aid

House Democratic leaders have
decided to press an intensive in
vestigation of the need for federal
aid to the nations depressed areas.
Rep. Louis C. Rabaut (D-Mich)
dean of the Detroit congressional
delegation, made the announcement
after a meeting with House Speak
er Sam Rayburn (D-Tex.) and
Chairman Brent Spence (D-Ky.)
of the House Banking Committee,
which will conduct the study.
Also present at the meeting and
emphasizing the serious need for
such legislation were the Auto
Workers Detroit regional directors,
Ken Morris, George Merelli, Ed
ward Cote and Joseph McCusker.
The announcement came as De-
troit and two other major cities
were added to the Labor Dept. 8
list of areas of Substantial un-
employment" The latest listing
showed "a areas with over 6 per-
cent unemployment and an addi-
tional 81 areas having moderate
unemployment"
Speaker Rayburn and Chairman
Spence see the severity of the sit
uation as it exists and are deeply
interested in finding genuine an
swers to a problem which vitality
affects millions of American rural
and urban families-that of indus

said.

Social Security

With the payment of monthly
benefits for the first time early
in August to more than 100000
disabled people between the ages
of so and IS, the Federal social
security program reached a new
and important landmark in its
mission to promote the financial
security of the American family,
according to j statement made to
day by M. B. White, district mana
ger of the Jackson office of the
Social Security Administration.

Program has three major fea-

jority of the AFL-CIO field staff,
petitioned Aug. 9 in Baltimore for
an NLRB election to win bargain
ing rights.
Meany said he could not envisage
a normal collective bargaining rela-
tionship between the AFL-CIO and
union of it's field representatives
whose members are also members
of other AFL-CIO unions which
recommended them for their posts.
The council was not of mind to
charter the FRI, Meany continued.
Organizers are certainly Gin a
different position from office en-
ployes," he declared. The field rep
resentatives are promoted from
positions in the trade unions and
they are appointed on the recon-
mendation of the unions to which
they belong. These unions also can
and do serve as grievance machin-
cry for the individual organizers.
The field representatives, he adj
ded, are part of management" In
a sense they speak for the ALL
CLIO and they do not have "nor-
mali employer-employe relation
ship with the AFL-CIO.

still have his social security earn
ings record protected as of the date
he actually become disabled.
However, if the disabled work
eer is over so now, it is important
that he file his application as
soon as possible, and before JAM
uary 1, 1858, so that he will not
lose any monthly benefit payments.
When an application is filed before
January 1, 1858, payments can be-
gin with the month of July, 1867.
Disabled workers who apply in
January, 1858, or later, will not
be paid benefits for months before
the date of their applications.
White pointed out that under the
old-age and survivors insurance
program benefits have been pay
able since 1910 to children under
Is of wage earners who are them
selves receiving social security
checks, or to children of deceased
insured wage earners.
Where such children are dis
abled, however, it is now possible
to continue payments to them after
age Is, according to one of the
provisions of the 1866 amend
ments which authorized such pay
ments beginning with the month
of January, 1857.
The Jackson office of the Social
Security Administration is located

industries in depressed areas.
Hearings on a similar proposal
sponsored by Sen. Paul Douglas
3D. ILL., have already been launched
in the Senate and are expected to
be resumed after the adjournment
of the current session of Congress.
"The enactment of this legisla-
tion," Rabaut said, would be an
important step toward the revitali-
cation of the economic climate of
the entire country, particularly in
an area such as Detroit where
there are over 100000 skilled, cap
able workers unemployed" III
He pointed out that the JAW
in the Detroit area has committed
Substantial" funds as "seed
money" to be used in common eff
fort to develop practical plans for
the modernization and redevelop-
ment of the city. 4
Important as such efforts are,
he said, it is now increasingly clear
that area unemployment is more
than a local problem, and that
affects the national economy and
requires federal financial and tech
nical assistance to effect a solu-
ton.
