Review 1947 Benefits of Federal Security Adm.

Citizens of Indiana have benefited during the past year to the extent of some $29,946,333.62, which the national government has added to their state and local investment of health, education, welfare, vocational rehabilitation, and social security, according to a summary made public today by Oscar R. Ewing, Feberal Security Administrator. This figure, the Administrator said, represents preliminary data on Indiana's participation in the various FSA programs. based on the forthcoming Federal Security Agency annual report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1947. "Even this substantial investment," Administrator Ewing pointed out, “does not tell the whole story in terms either of people or of money In addition to the services for public health and food and drug regulation, which benefit every citizen of Indiana, some 177.572 men. women and children. In the state were receiving or had received individual benefits or services by the year’s end. through Federal Security Agency programs operating in their committees, most of them with the cooperation of both state and national governments. "These direct beneficiaries,’ he explained. “Include children who get health care, or who are dependent or In danger of becoming delinquent; the needy blind; disabled men and women being rehabilitated into jobs; wage-earn-ers drawing their state unemployment insurance payments- old people receiving assistance; and those receiving Federal social security benefits, including both retired workers and the families of insured workers who have died. "As for the investment Itself.” Mr. Ewing continued, “our accounting represents only the Federal share in the partnership. To complete the picture. Indiana would have to add in its own state and local funds which its citizens also use for these purposes. All but two of the 18 na-tion-wide programs under the Federal Security Agency are on this partnership basis with the states. Only the Food and Drug Administration and old-age and survivors insurance are direct operations by the Federal Government, Federal food and drug officials work closely with their opposite numbers in the state and local government.” The summary on which Administrator Ewing based his report on Federal Security Agency activities in Indiana shows the following breakdown for the state during the fiscal year 1946-47. Social Seearity Administration Os a total of $31,048,100 of federal money paid to the slates in the fiscal year 1946-47 for health and welfare services to mothers and children, Indiana received approximately $585,400. Os this sum. $281,600 was to help build up its maternal and, child health, crippled children’s and child welfare programs The remainder, $302,800. was paid to the state mainly for doctor and hospital bills incurred in operating the Emergency Maternity and Infant Care program. During the year, approximately 3.800 wives and infants of Indiana servicemen were authorized for care under this program Under the Social Security Act. Federal funds are also made available to help states finance approved plans for public assistance. Federal grants to Indiana for assistance to dependent children, the needy aged and the blind were as follows for the fiscal year ended June 30. 1947; aid to dependent children. $2,424,000; old-age assistance. $11.840,000• and aid to the needy blind, $465,000. The number of Indiana recipients under the three states-feder-al assistance programs in June 1947 were: aid to dependent children. 18.764 in 7.622 families; old-age assistance. 50.588; and aid to the needy blind. 1.909. The unemployment insurance program has continued to serve the important purpose of providing against excessive economic hardship because of involuntary unemployment. During the fiscal year a total of $8,551,000 in benefits was paid by the State of Indiana to 45.307 unemployed persons from funds contributed by Indiana employers in thia period. The average number of persons receiving payments each week was 9.733. At the present time practically all industrial workers in the United States are insured under a Federal-State unemployment in-

surance program which is administered by the states in cooperation with the Federal Security Agency- The cost of administration is paid from funds appropriated by the Congress and allocated to the states by the Social Security Administration of the Agency. Indiana spent approximately $983,000 for this purpose in the 12 months covered by this report from funds allocated by the Social Security Administration. The Federal system of old-age and survivors Insurance provides a monthly income for workers and their families when the worker retires at the age of 65 or later and for his family when he dies. It is an insurance program for those who work in private industry and commerce—jobs in factories. offices, stores, and the like. By June 30. 1947. 51.700 residents of Indiana were receiving monthly payments at a rate of $975,000. Monthly benefits certified for payment to retired workers, their wives, and their dependent children during the fiscal year 1946-47 amounted to $7,415,000. Monthly benefits to survivors of insured workers totaled $3,843,000. These payments went to children, widowed mothers. aged widows, and aged parents of deceased workers. In addition, lump-sum payments totaling $699,000 were made to survivors who were not immediately eligible for monthly benefits. Public Health Service A general health grant of $333,582 00 was made to help Indiana build up and maintain its local health departments, control communicable diseases,, improve sanitation, and carry on health education, demonstrations, personnel training, and other general public health services including industrial hygiene, and cancer control. Indiana received $89,528.00 to carry out effective measures for the prevention, treatment, and control of tuberculosis in the state. Grants-inlaid for control of venereal disease in Indiana amounted to $157,626,00 in the, fiscal year 1947. The amount of grant-in-aid provided tor rapid treatment centers was $94,596.00 and 1,762 patients were admitted for treatment. Under the Hospital Survey and Construction Act of 1946, Indiana was granted $10,000.00 for surveying its needs for hospitals and health centers and for developing a long-range, comprehensive construction program. In addition to grants given directly to the state. 5 research grants representing a total of $27,214.00 were made to 2 universities. hospitals, and other research institutions in Indiana through the Research (Grants Division of the National Institute of Health This money *as for research in the causes and methods of prevention of the diseases of man. including cancer, infectious diseases, diseases of old age. malnutrition, and the effects of various industrial substances, processes, and environments. Office of Vocational Rehabilitation Through the Federal-State pratnershi'p system for vocational rehabilitation of civilians, 3030 disabled men and women of Indiana at the end of the year were receiving services to restore, preserve or develop their ability to make a living. During the year, another 712 disabled men and women were successfully prepared for and placed in employment through these services—medical, surgical, psychiatric and hospital care; artificial limbs and other aids; individual counsel and guidance. training for suitable jobs; placement on the right job and foHqw-up to make sure they made good, Os this latter group. 447 had never been able to work. Prior to the start of rehabilitation services, the rehabilitated group had earned income of approximately $393,000 a year. When rehabilitation was completed. the group was earning at the rate of $1,362,000 a year in virtually every type of occupation. The earned Income rate of the entire group was Increased by 347 percent. It costs from S3OO to S6OO a year to maintain a disabled person in dependency; the program was conducted at a cost of $733 per rehabilitated case, a non-re-curring cost The Federal Government through the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation put up 63.8 percent of ttfe coat of operating the program in Indiana during the

fiscal year, amounting to $328,774 and suplementing $186,330 of state and local funds. Office of Education The Office of Education is the arm of the Federal Goyernment which serves all the states with authoritative facts on American education, collected and interpreted by experts in many fields and made widely available through personal consultation, letters, speeches, conferences, and printed publications. In order to promote the cause of better education. the Office cooperates with national state, and local aducatlon officials and organizations, both public and private. In addition the Office of Education makes grants of federal funds to the states as aid for vocational education and land-grant colleges. During the fiscal year 1946-47, Indiana received $541.49,2.32 for vocational education and $109,121.30 for Its land-grant collejse program.
