Roosevelt Loyalist Bertha Seeks Mrs Roosevelt Aid
Bertha on the West Wall backs President Roosevelt while fearing war jitters until Mrs. Roosevelt returns to the White House. She believes the First Lady’s peace drive could keep the United States neutral and supports Mrs. Roosevelt for president. The piece also presents a Q and A on amendments to the Social Security Act expanding old age and survivors insurance, including benefit expansions, eligibility, and coverage estimates through 1940.

Federal old age and unemployment insurance costs explained
The act increases total estimated 1940 benefits to about 114 million dollars, with 68 million in added costs atop 16 million originally. Most of the 28 million workers covered by state unemployment laws are also covered by federal old age insurance, though some exceptions exist. Coverage differs: old age is continuous for workers, while unemployment insurance depends on current employment and employers with eight or more workers.
