Benefits Boosted Continued From Page 3
The Senate Finance Committee deleted a House provision to keep adding 1 percent per year of service to a worker’s basic retirement benefit. House and Senate changes reduced or removed the incremental increase. An amendment for 1 percent per year through 1950 and partial after was defeated. A provision for state and local employees already in retirement to join the Federal system was dropped. The Senate approved a cost-sharing plan for Federal and state child care payments, estimated at 75 million dollars annually. The bill also extended coverage to most agent-drivers except dairy distributors and failed to raise the retirement age to 60.
