NEW SECURITY BILL ASKS U. 3. FUNDS Senator Lewis Offers Sub- stitute Pensions and Job Insurance Measure. By the Associated Press. A bill to provide that old-age pen- sions and unemployment insurance be financed out of the Federal Treasury ‘was offered today by Senator Lewis, Democrat, of Illinois, as a substitute for the administration’s social security measure. In a statement Senator Lewis said | the substitute lays “down the princxp]e | that the Government should provide for the citizens solely out of the Fed- | eral funds; that the Government shall | treat the United States citizens as| citizens of the United States and leave the State funds for State pensions wholly to the State treasury.” | Lewis hoped to work out a complete | new substitute with President Roose- velt for the Wagner-Lewis bill now being considered by the House Ways and Means Committee. Perturbed by Changes. Coincident with President Roose- | velt's return to .Washington, reports reached Capitol Hill that some of his advisers were perturbed over changes already made in the social security bill. Because of this, some members of the House Ways and Means Commit- tee expressed doubt as to what the | President’s attitude would be when the | | amended bill is presented to him. | The committee called on the Presi- | dent shortly after the bill was sent to Congress by the Cabinet Committee on Economic Security. Members told him some of the contemplated changes. He was said to have told them to go | ahead, reporting back to him when | they had finished. | Measure Is Rewritten. Today, the committee was virtually through amending the bill with its provisions for old-age pensions and annuities, job insurance and aid to | mothers and dependent and crippled | children. But in five and a half weeks of work, it had almost rewritten the measure. ‘The primary objective was to give the States greater control over the various plans than had been contem- plated in the original bill. It was that expansion that committee members were told had drawn the objecflnm One high-ranking _administr official was sald to have remlrnd that if the States were given com- | plete authority on their old-age pen- sions—as the bill now provides—some might set up standards that would not be considerel here to be fair or Just. A committee member, who decliped to permit use of his name, said it would be necessary to permit some differentials in some States, and that he was certain the President would recognize that necessity. Validity Is Studied. Pending the time when the re- drafted bill ¢vill be ready for sub- mission to the President, the Ways | and Means Committee today occupied itself with the question of the consti- tutionality of the job insurance tax. ———— LAUNCH FIRE FATAL |Navy Coxswain Killed as Others Escape Flames.
