Higher Pensions For More People
The Social Security program announces two major changes to old age pensions. Pensions rise for current and future beneficiaries, with larger increases on Sept 1, 1950 and July 1, 1952. The rules are relaxed to grant pensions to about 500,000 more people immediately by Sept 1. The minimum pension grows from $10 to $20, the maximum from $46 to $68.50, and the average shifts toward $46 by Sept 1. After July 1, 1952, the new maximum is $80 and the average around $50. Eligible workers with shorter covered employment may now qualify, with timing and application details noted.
