To a lot of people It looked like the answer to the treasury's prayer tn be able to Increase beneflts and lower taxes. Congress did exactly that. But what has happened is that the cake !h being eaten now and a future generation of congressmen and taxpayers will have to decldo how much cake is to be eaten In the future. Under the old plan for social security, the monthly fbeueflts did not start until 1942. Now they start January 1. * Moreover, a lot of elderly people who couldn't expect anything out of it before are going to get a share under the new ^ystem. They will get more than they paid In. The reason for this Is that the system of financing has been changed. The plan for a big reserve will be built up. That means present collections from the pay roll tax will more than carry the preseut load for two or three years., '" | Instead of the Increase in taxes due this year, the increase has been postponed three years. And the beneflts have been increased. More old people will get monthly pensions than could have expected them before. Other old people who could have expected small pensions will get larger ones Nobody should be deceived about the thing. The extra money that Is being paid out now will have to be made up later by taxes of some kincj. The present tax of 1 per cent on employe and 1 per cent on employer will "carry through to about 1943. Then 'more old people will be entitled to dividends than are able to get them now. The present schedule of taxes then will be increased, first to 2 per cent, finally to 8 per cent. In fact the pay roll taxes will tgke care of the whole load until 1954 if the rates are left as In the newly-revised law. In 1954 either the social security beneflts that people had been looking forward to will be cut down?or congress will have to appropriate directly from the I treasury. The latter course is expected. It would not surprise some of the Inner circle If congress never did allow the tax to go to Its limit of 3 per cent on employe. Sfome quietly expect thai the threat of such a load of pay roll taxes will compel congress to raise the money from general Income or other taxes. Then will begin a squawk from another section. A lot of people such as farmers, farm laborers, small store owners and professional people are not covered -by the social security retirement plan. Yet in time congreflB will begin to have to tax them along with the rest of us to pay those who are covered. And there will arise lobbies and more lobbies to correct that. And more and more people will get old-age retirement. There is no reason for becomfnfe panicky about it. It will cost lots of money?three to five billion dollars a year in time. But it won't reach that level until another generation of congressmen comes up to deal with it. Then it will be their headache. Meanwhile a queer situation arises out of the scheme to distribute the pensions where they will do the inost good. Under the new law a married man retiring at sixty-five gets additional money for his wife as soon as she reaches sixty-five. Still more is allowed for dependent children. Vor instance, a single man retiring at sixty-five after paying taxes for five years will get $31.50 a month If his average earnings have been $150 a month. A married man whose wife Is also sixty-five will get $47.25 in the same wage bracket. Yet tney both pay the same social security tax. No i matter hos^you look at It, It is a tax I on bachelors. And another thing. The congress- ( men have put up barriers against i young women marrying old men to get pensions. Experience with war t pensions taught them to do. that. Now \ i widow can't get her husband's pen- < sion until she, too, Is sixty-five. * In the Phlllipplnes there are women awyers. a woman Judge, women <! pharmacists, a woman stock broker, t leveral Important women capitalists, i ind several outstanding women phy- r ilclans. jt Team *ls/r6>*+r CITY SOFTBALL LEAGUE Compiled July 11 Wuu Lost Pet.
