By PRESTON GROVER | WASHINGTON, Sept. 27—It is evident already that some surprises e in store for members of Congress and the public when they begin look= ing behind the scenes into the pay- as-you-go scheme of social h(’(fufl? adopted this past session. 3 | To a lot of people it looked like the answer to the treasury’s prayer to be able to increase benefits and lower taxes. Congress did exactly that. But what has happened is that |the cake is being eaten now and a future generation of congressmen |and taxpayers will have to decide | hew much cake is to be eaten in the | future. Under the old plan for social security, the monthly benefits did not start until 1942. Now they | start January 1. Moreover, a lot |of elderly people who couldn’t |expect anything out of it before lare going to get a share under the inew system. They will get more | than they paid in. | The reason for this is that the sys- |tem of financing has been change launch Forester after completing a E. L. White, M.

Oply a small emergency comes up to deal with it. Then it will be their headache. A STRAN: SITUATIO! Meantime a queer situation arises out of the scheme to distribute the pensions where they will do the most good. Under the new law a married man retiring at 65 gets additional money for his wife as soon as she reaches 65. Still more is allowed for dependent children. For instance, a single man re- tiring at 65 after paying taxes for $47.25 in the same wage bracket. Yet they both pay the same social security tax. No matter how you look at it, it is a tax on bachelars. | And another thing, The .con-| gressmen have put. up barriers against young women marrying 1939, AND PLEASURE ‘ AT THE BRUNSWICK Completely Refinished Third at Franklin Commercial | pected ported at Hoonah today and is ex- in Juneau within a few |days with Captain George Sarvela |and Acting Forest Guard Ken Nel- RICE & ANLERS CO. - Oldest Bank in Alaska son, who have been engaged in taking the census along with their regular administrative work for the Forest Service.
