Dependents Will Receive Benefits Under Social Security Plan
The 1939 act broadens social security to cover families, not just workers, with about 400,000 wives, widows, and orphans set to receive federal benefits next year. Estimates project 125,000 wives over 65, 20,000 widows over 65, 78,060 younger widows, and 194,000 children up to 18 or in school, plus 10,000 dependent parents. Primary benefit limits cap monthly payments at 88 dollars, with totals not exceeding 85 dollars or twice the worker's primary benefit, or 80 percent of the average monthly wage. A wife and children receive supplemental benefits equal to half the husband's primary benefit, and a widow's share is three-fourths.
