SOCIAL SECURITY. ‘The social security bill is one of the greatest public measures to pass both houses of Congress in recent years. Its many ramifications touch every phase of our daily lives, since its sup- port means taxation of all for the good of the majority. For those who wish to know more about the whole subject of social security, the Public Library lists a few important books and magazine articles selected from the many devoted to the various phases of the complex subject.

April, 1935. “While there can be little weight to the argument that the Uniied States cannot afford to adopt social insurance, when so many other’coun- tries much poorer than she maintain | such comprehensive systems, the American program has been framed | with due regard to our present eco- nomic conditions.” Government’s Obligation for Eco- nomic Security, by I. M. Rubinow. Annals of the American Academy, 178: 59-68.
