The social security bill, designed to give protection to some 30,000,000 people through unemployment compensation and old pensions, has been signed by President Roosevelt. In addition, provision is made for special care for dependent iftbthers and children. In signing the bill, the president said: "Today, a hope of many ■years’ standing is in large fulfilled. We caji never insure 100 per cent of the population against 100 ■ per cent of the hazards and vicissitudes of life, but we have tried! to frame a law which will give some measure of protection to the . average citizen and to his family! against the loss of a job and a-J gainst poverty-stricken old age." ■ The social security measure is the | most forward and progressive step J ever taken in American legislation.
