r A—4 wx §73,000,000 ASKED OR PENSION PLAN Budget Bureau Recommends Sum—Youth Administra- tion Gets $27,056,268. By the Associated Press. A $75,000.000 appropriation to sup- port the new social security progrnm‘ for the next 10 months has been rec- | ommended by the Budget Bureau and’ probably will be voted by Congress he- | fore adjournment this week. At the same time it was announced | the National Youth Administration had received $27.056.268 of work re- Itef funds to aid 323,792 young men | and women between 16 and 25 all| the way from high school to colleg2 graduate courses. Dr. Lewis Alder- man will administer the program, a continuation of the Relief Administra tion's education plan. Although the security —measure | signed by President Roosevelt last| week authorized expenditure of $98.- | 491,000 during the current fiscal year | ending next July 1, the Budget Bu-| reau, in a message to the House Ap- propriations Committee. suggested a reduction of nearly 25 per cent, since a quarter of the vear will have passed before the act becomes operative. Deficiency Provided For. Any sums in excess of the proposed $75.000,000 which may be spent by the still unappointed security board could be met by a deficiency appropriation when Congress reassembles next Jan- uary, it was said. Officials familiar | with the program believed this action | might be necessary, pointing out that even more than the $98.000.000 orig- inally authorized may be needed to carry out the administration’s plan to remove unemployables from relief rolls this Winter. This plan, they| said. will add to State old-age rolls| and thus to the amount of Federal | grants to States for old-age pen-| sloners. | Irrespective of the Budget Bureau's recommended reductions, which were | not immediately available, the appro- priation originally authorized to sup- port the security program until July 1, 1936, 1s divided as follows Old-age assistance (for grants to States). $49,750.000 | Unemployment insurance (for State | administration), $4,000,000 Aid to dependent children, 750.000. Maternal 800.000. ("mplf\d children, $2.850.000. welfare, $1.500.000. \m ational rehabilitation. $841.000 Public health, $8.000.000. Aid to the blind. $3.000.000. Administration of these funds and research work by the New Social Se- curity Board (not included in $98,.- 491.000 total), $4.127.000. These phases of the big program are to start this year. Some of the mones will be spent directly by the Federal Government. Some will be given to the States, Start Next Year. The major parts of the program, however — compulsory old-age pen- glons and unemployment insurance— do not start until next year. Old-age pensions: | Starting immediately, the Federal Government will contribute up to $15 a month per person to match grants of 35 States which now have old-age penston plans. A compulsory. self-sustaining system designed eventually to replace the Federal-State grants will start De- cember 31, 1936, After that date, nearly all employes making less than $3.000 a year. with the exception of domestic and agricul- tural labor, will pay a gradually in- creasing tax on their pay. This wiil start at 1 per cent in 1937. After 1948 it will be 3 per cent. Employers will contribute a tax of the same | amount. The Federal Government will keep this money for the States, which will administer payments At the age of 65, the employe will | start receiving a pension. If he made an average of $100 a month for 40 years before he retired at 65. he would get a monthly pension of $51.25 until he died The maximum monthly benefit would be $85, the minimum $10. $24,- | and child health, $3,- l r 1 \ Estate to Receive Sum. 1t the pensioner died before he re- ceived as much as he had paid in, his estate would get the balance with interest. If the employe died before he reached the pension age, his estate would receive the amount he had paid in. with interest. | No benefits are to be paid until January, 1942 Unemployment insurance: Employers of eight or more persons are to pay a Federal pay roll iax starting next January 1 (1 per cent next year, 2 per cent in 1937, and 3 per cent thereafter), with a 90 per cent credit for all contributions to | State unemployment insurance funds. Only five States—Wisconsin, New York. Washington, Utah and New | Hampshire—now have unemploymeat insurance systems, but others are ex- pected to adopt them during the| coming year. State Plans Vary. The nature of the State plans varies. New York benefits, for example, are to range from $5 to $15 a week and to run for not more than 16 weeks. The 10 per cent of the tax the Federal Government retains is to be spent in helping the States admin ister their plans. The social securit act called for a $49,000,000 annual appropriation for this purpose each year after this year. \ The Youth Administration allotment | will be divided as follows: $11,463,- 768 for 212,192 high school students at $6 a month: $14.512,500 for 107.500 college students at $15 a month; $1.- 808,000 for 4,000 post-graduate stu- | dents at $30 a month. When set up, the Youth Adminis- tration was promised $50,000,000 in 11l Colleges agreeing to accept students helped by the Youth Administration receive funds to care for 12 per cent of their enroliment.

In an effort to assist in the develop- ment in the District of the National Youth Administration program. Cor- coran Thom, jr. president of the Washington Junior Board of Com- merce. last night named a committee of four members to co-operate with Commissioner George E. Allen and other District agencies interested in the problems of youth. Ray F. McCarthy, secretary of the Community Chest, and Otis T. Wingo. ir.. executive secretary of the National Institution of Public Affairs, were named cochairmen. The other mem- bers are Hartford E. Bealer and Wil- liam H. Press The committee will co-ordinate the junior board’s activities concerning vouth and will assist officials and other agencies in the investigation of suitable projects for Washington's needy young people that can be carried out under the National Youth Admin- istration. Members of the junior board have already volunteered their services to iead vocational training groups and to serve as “occupation counselors.” The junior board said they hoped to help not only the 7,000 Washington- ians between 16 and 25 years of age who are on the present relief rolls, but also to assist needy vouth here who are not on the rolls.

Concerning the new liquor agency profected as a successor to the defunct | Federal Alcohol Control Admirfistra- tion, informed quarters predicted Con- gress would permit bulk sales of liquor in kegs and barrels and would set up an independent regulatory agency which, however, would submit its reports to Congress through the Treasury. The Senate had voted to restrict sales to liquor in bottles and to make the agency independent. approved the bulk sales and decided to put the agency under the Treasury. Among measures mentioned as lost | in the shuffie so far as this session of | Congress is concerned was the new food and drug regulatory system. It was predicted Congress would not act finally now on railroad pension legis- lation to replace a law stricken off the books by the Supreme Court. There were indications, however, of a ferthcoming investigation to de- | termine whether or not the new social security law should apply to railroad workers. The House proceeded today to a vote on the Guffey bill, with its backers seeking to speed it to the Senate. On the House calendar todav also was action on the conference agreement on the omnibus banking bill. This is not listed on the 11-] pmnt program merely because it is con- sidered as good as passed, the Senate- House conferees having agreed on it.

The Federal Trade Commission said yesterday it has issued a complaint against the World Library Guild, Inc., charging it vith “false and mislead- ing” representations in the sale of th: Twentieth Century Encyclopedia. The commission gave the company 1 atil September 20 to show cause why an order should not be entered to cease and desist from certain prac- | tices. “he commission said the company’s salesmen represented that a limited number of persons would be given free sets if they subscribed for a 10-year loose-leaf c.mi-annual extension serv- jce.

Press Apprehensive. TLondon's conservative morning news- papers expressed serious apprehension over the possible effects of the wrecked Paris parleys. *We are bound to reckon with the probability that this country may be involved, willy nilly, in another war more terrible than the last,” com- mented the Morning Post. The Times lashed out at Mussolini for his brusqueness in spurning ths Franco-British proposals, saying: ‘Mussolini has shown little regard for the courtesies. The French| premier, who had to divert his at- tention from affairs of his own-coun- try at a critical moment, and the British minister, especially appointed to deal with League of Nations affairs, had to kick their heels until Baroa Pompeo Aloisi might be able to give them the views of the head of the Italian government. “After two days.” the Times con- tinued, “they found the Italian repre- sentative unable to make any serious contribution to the business in hand The gravity of the Italian decision can hardly be overestimated. Italy has ignored her pledges and con- temptuously flouted the League.” Market Shows Effects. The menace of the war clouds roll- ing up from Africa were also reflected in the sluggish movement of the Brit- ish Stock Exchange, according to the | Financial Times. “If the Ethiopian business could be localized.” said that paper, “nobody would be greatly perturbed from a financial viewpoint. But unfortunate- 1y other nations look as though they are being dragged into the theater of disagreement. It is apprehension like this, spreading still further, that holds cheerfulness in check.” The British government has by im- plication made a bid for the moral support of the United States in its future steps in the Italo-Ethiopian situations, it was learned today. While | Anthony Eden. in Paris, was seeing J. Theodore Marriner, counselor to the United States Embassy, the foreign office here advised Ray Atherton, | American charge d'affaires here, of the trend of events. The foreign office took particular pains to enlighten Africans on the British policy in the dispute and ob- servers interpreted this acton as a bid | for the moral support of the United | States in the future. | Informed quarters said Anglo-Itaiian “understanding” regarding British rights to Lake Tsana, the source of the River Nile, had been knocked sky | high by the tri-power conference in | Paris. An authority said the response of Italy in Paris indicated that nation considered herself no longer bound by | the 192. bilateral agreement with Great Britain or by other understand- ings of an informal character. Authoritative sources said they were seriously worried by the complicated major question affecting the very ule‘ of the Sudan and Egypt. | 1t was learned that® cabinet meet- ing will be called within 10 days, | after leading cabinet ministers had | surveyed the international outlook. | Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin, who is on vacation at Aix-Les-Bains, | is keeping in constant touch with London and may return. !

CITIZENS DEPLORE RULING “SECRECY” Ask Right to Send Delegates to Fine Arts and Park Groups Meetings. Authorization of two citizens' asso- ciation delegates to meet with the Fine Arts and National Capital Park and Planning Commissions on all mat- ters pertaining to the District, to elimi- nate “the danger of secret agree- ments,” was requested in a communi- cation addressed to the District Com- missioners today by the Northeast Conference of Citizens' Associations. The citizens explained that the “se- cret agreement” reference was to testi- mony at a congressional hearing as to an agreement between the two com- missions and the Pennsylvania Rail- road to build two bridges or under- passes instead of three as first planned, across the railroad tracks in North- east Washington. it was pointed out in the District Building today that the most the Dis- trict Commissioners could do in meet- ing the request was to make repre- sentations to the Fine Arts and Park and Planning Commissions, since both bodies are appointed by the President. The communication also requested that immediate steps be taken to have a railroad overpass and underpass which finally were authorized by Con- gress, together with streets necessary for the use of the crossings, built at once. The Commissioners already have moved to get this project under way. ANIMAL ACTORS ASKED Team of Oxen and Cast Sought by Community Players.

Rain drove the gathering from | Franklin Park to the church. Blaming Wall Street for prohibition repeal, Brookhart said the eighteenth amendment was killed because of lack of proper enforcement, the fault, he declared, of “Andrew W. Mellon, the greatest distiller in the United States.” Brookhart charged that Mellon, as Secretary of the Treasury, failed properly to check prohibition violators Brookhart said the way to get the dry law back was to convince citizens that “the prohibitionists are for the farmers, the laborers and the small | business men."” Deets Pickett, secretary of the Vl-modm Board of Temperance, Fro- hibition and Public Morals, told the meeting: “As soon as we get our con- stitutency organized we are going to sweep this whole repeal business into the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.” Brookhart's attack on Mellon was taken up by John B. Hammond of Towa. who charged the former Treas- ury Secretary with lax enforcement | of the Sheppard District prohibition law. | Hammond urged enactment of a bill introduced in the House by Repre- sentative Guyer of Kansas which would replace the repealed Sheppard law. Dr. Everett M.
