Proposal to bring all servicemen under Social Security system
A special House Committee proposed placing all servicemen under the regular Social Security System and eliminating the current $10,000 free life insurance. The plan aims to simplify survivor benefits, reduce multiple programs, and liberalize the remaining three. It anticipates higher initial costs tapering later, and would apply from enlistment with payroll deductions for benefits.

Ministers Debate Quickening Racial Integration
In Westminster Maryland on June 3 Methodist leaders of the Baltimore Conference rejected a resolution urging steps to speed racial integration within the church. Opponents argued current church structure suffices and that action should come through existing channels. Supporters urged faster leadership and a mandate from the next General Conference to establish commissions for integration. Bishop Oxnam urged end of segregation barriers, while Dele gates and clergy debated the approach and timetable for change.
