Social Security Increase Likely WASHINGTON UPI — Congress moved today to give Social Security recipients a $1 billion increase in benefits in place of the controversial medicare program proposed by President Johnson. The election-year boost would deal a fatal blow to Johnson’s hopes for a medicare plan to provide health insurance for the aged financed by Social Security taxes. It seems unlikely that the Social Security fund could stand the strain of financing both an insurance program and the proposed across-the-board increase in benefits. The decision, climaxing two months of closed meetings, was made Wednesday by the House Ways & Means Committee which is drafting a bill to send to the House floor. The committee vote was a victory for the American Medical Association and other opponents of medicare legislation. President Johnson fought hard for the medicare program, first proposed by the late President John F. Kennedy, but failed to win over committee Chairman Rep. Wilbur D. Mills, D-

Ark.

Under the Social Security legislation approved by the committee, all recipients would receive about a 5 per cent increase in benefits shortly after

the bill in enacted. Coverage also would be broadened in sev-

eral instances.

New Visa Law WASHINGTON UPI _ Government attorneys today were w-orking on a new law designed to keep dangerous Communists from using U.S. passports. A 1950 statute that was supposed to accomplish this purpose was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court Monday.
