-By GILBERT LOVE || Times Special Writer You might. be wondering ' where the Government will get all the money needed to pay benefits under the. liberalized = Social’ Security system. . ceoid That's. a good question, because some experts have figured out that the insurance feature of the system, alone, will just about duplicate all ‘the insurance now held by Americans, and that all payments to re tired workers and the families of those that die eventually will reach five billion. dollars a” year. Well, for a number of years, the payroll taxes are expected to foot the entire bill. The retirement in‘come fund has been given a good start in the past three years, when nothing was paid out except some + small lump-sum settlements.

Billion Accumulated :

More than a billion dollars has been accumulated in the fund. During the first year that monthly payments are available, 1940," the Social Security Board expects to pay out only about -110 millions, The total amount will increase from year to - year, of course, as more workers re‘tire- and more families of deceased . workers start getting monthly incomes. ; "But the money from the payroll tax will keep coming in each year, i swelling the fund as the rate is increased to 1i2 per cent for both employer and employee in 1943; to 2 per cent in 1946, and to 3 per cent each in 1949. So, as the Social Security Board puts it, the time when the fund will no longer be self-supporting, and will need some sort of help from regular public funds, is “in the relatively distant future.”

The Experts Differ

Some critics of the amended Social security Act maintain that the Government will have to contribute large amounts when it steps into the picture. Other. experts point out that the Government will not be called upon to spend so much for relief when a large proportion of the elderly, and widows :and children of workers who have died, are living on incomes from the Social Security fund. The problem of self-sufficiency for the- fund is one that will have to be worked out as the years go by and the nation has had more experience with the system. Possibly some changes can be made to effect economies. Nearly everyone admits that the - Social Security: Act, as it now stands, is not ‘a finished product. Lot

Change American Life Assuming that retirement incomes and insurance payments to the families of deceased workers will be

continued—aad that is a good as-!

sumption, since even the critics .of the method being used admit the need for thgm—the Social Security Act is going to make a lot of changes in American life in the future. Such familiar terms as “over the hill to the poorhouse” and “the widow's mite” should become much less comimon, for with pensions and insurance available to workers who have worked even| part of the time during their lives, | the penniless aged and poverty-stricken widow should not be numerous. The Townsend Plan’s dream of retiring elderly workers, and replacing them with [young men, should at least be partially realized. For, while the. monthly incomes from the Social Security retirement fund will not be nearly as large as Dr. Townsend’s $200, they will be enough to tempt a large proportion of the elderly to quit work. Adds Interest in Insurance ', It has been predicted that, when the new Social Security plan geis into operation, the various “big pension” schemes that have been advocated, in recent years will lose: much of their support. Prices probably will| rise a little when Social Security taxes reach their maximum figures, but . the withdrawal of money from circulation should not disrupt business very much, because the amended plan is a “pay-as-you-go” proposition. That is, money will be paid lout about as fast as it comes in, after the first few years. : : One might expect the insurance business to suffer from the sudden “gift” of insurance to millions of workers. However, when thet first Social Security retirement income plan was announced, insurance men discovered that the public had an increased - inferest- in insurance policies, Ef Tae Raid :

EIRE TO ROUND UP 1. B. A, TERRORISTS

DUBLIN, Jan. 4 (U. P.).—The slaying of a detective in a street battle at Cork-marked a night of tension in Eire, during which the lower house of the Dail (parliament) hurriedly empowered : the Government to intern suspected Irish’ Republican Army terrorists without trial. inl It was understood that Sean McCurtain, son of the former Lord Mayor of Cork, the late Thomas McCurtain, had been detained: for the slaying of Detective John Roche. The internment bill was to go to the Senate today, and if passed there, will provide Prime Minister Eamon . Devalera with a potent weapon against the I. R. A. terrorists struggling to annex the six Ulster counties of North Ireland, now a part of the British Empire, to Eire. : : During debate in the Dail late last night, Justice Minister Gerald Boland said that thousands of dollars found in the possession of I. BR. A, mémbers proved they were getting funds from the United States. He said it had been established that a ‘leter had been sent from Eire to the United States asking that “The Clann” furnish more help.“ -He said he would have “suitable”: inquiries made in the \

Guidance Respected

“Public health nurses have always respected the guidance of more mature and better informed members of their profession. The timely and sound advice of supervisors who have had the advantage of advanced instruction in techniques and methods of approach to the problems of a rapidly developing service for crippled children should result . immeasurably in furthering both the quantity and quality of work of all public health nurses in the State.of® Indiana.” She - said ‘that the encouraging features in the development of programs to aid the crippled children are the stress which has been laid on the employment of qualified: personnel and the provisions made for additional preparation of selected staff members. - Attending the conference as a visitor is Miss: Alice F. Brackett, public health consultant of the Children’s Bureau, who is en route to her headquarters in San Francisco. Today’s program will include demonstrations of - joint- movements and function and the technique of crutch walking by Miss Stevenson. The care of poliomyelitis (infantile paralysis)! will be studied tomorrow. There will be additional demonstrations and méving pictures of cases Saturday.
