Social Security Set For a Major Boost
The Senate moves toward passage of a Social Security bill backed by Sen. Russell Long with the House approved measure heading to President Johnson. If signed, 24 million Americans on the rolls would begin receiving increased checks by next March, with at least a 13 percent rise. The plan trims Aid to Families with Dependent Children and places limits on Medicaid as welfare costs rise. The move aims to forestall a filibuster by opponents including Kennedy, Harris, and Tydings.
