Amendment to Social Security Act aims to raise old age pensions
A House amendment to the Social Security Act would raise federal contributions to old age pensions from 15 to 30 dollars per month, enabling individual beneficiaries up to 60 dollars and couples to 120 dollars. The measure seeks broader administration liberalization without taxing the poor. The speaker condemns an agricultural bill as unconstitutional and criticizes Senate and House procedures.
