Terming the social security act as “the most eonstructive piece of social legislation which has been enacted in the United States in our lifetime. John G. Winant, chairman of the board, yesterday defended the taxing ;| structure of the Federal old-age benefits section of the act. The de- fense was made before members of the National Press Club, where Winant delivered a luncheon address. The taxes at issue become effective ;| next January with employers and i| employes each to pay a 1 per cent levy i| on wages up to $3,000 vearly. The tax ilis to be stepped up gradually until !l each party is paying 3 per cent in 1949, ‘The weight of this tax and the plan to build up a tremendous old-age re- ¢ | merve account in the Federal treasury frequently has been criticized by foes of the social security program as now constituted. Speaking of the addition of this tax burden to industry, Winant said: | “Industry is eonstantly called upon to face ehanges in cost factors, and frequently faces and successfully adjusts to much greater fluctustions in certain factors than the taxes under the social security act will ever entail, Holds Charge Is Just. *“I know the ecriticism has been made that these taxes on wages paid constitute an indefensible addition to { Easy Terms the cot of production.
