SOCIAL SEMMTY MSEMES OTH MNVOSMY A short time age, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the most far reaching phangff ever made in the Social Se curity Act into law. Broad, new programs of health in surance for the nation's aged have been added to «ori«rtin f programs oi old-age, survi vors, and disability insur ance, Robert C Thomas, so cial security district manager in Salisbury, North Carolina, announced today. Thirty years ago, on Aug ust 14, 1825, President Frank lin D. Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act into law. The three decades that have passed decades of mu riuL, growth, expansion culmina ted in Congressional approv al of the new programs and expansion of the eld ones, Mr, Thomas continued. Conceived during depressi on years, social security has grown from infancy into a maturing system offering comprehensive protection a against loss of family income whether due to retirement, disability, or death of the fa mily breadwinner. The idea behind social se curity, Mr. Thomas points out, is simple: during years of employment or self-employ ment, the worker contributes a small part of his earnings, with the employee's share be ing matched by the employer in most cases; then when earnings stop because of the worker's death, retirement in okl age or disability, benefit* related to his former earn ings are paid to him and his family. To the more than 20 million men, women, children now receiving benefits, social security Is moflSk than just words, ft means lend o# the table, a home, clothing— net luxury perhaps but an assured income. Benefits are now being paid at the rate of more than sl6 billion a year, Mr. Thomas continued. The original Act had pro vision enly for the payment of retirement benefits. In 1939, benefit payments for the families of retired work ers and for the survivors of deceased workers were add ed, Mr. Thomas stated. —Disability protection pro viding cash benefits for workers under 65 and their families was added in the middle 1950'5. —Benefit amounts have been increased, age reqirements have been lowered for old-age and survivors benefits, and work requirements lessened by several changes in the law through the years. Less than 60 percent of the working force— employ ees in commerce and industry —were covered by the origi nal Social Security Act. Now coverage has been ex tended so that more than 90 percent of the working peo ple in America are protect ed by social security. Mr. Thomas went on to say that during the past 30 years more and more people have been brought under the sys tem until nearly all kinds of employment and self-employ ment are covered, included work cn farms, in private households, in government, and in private nonprofit or ganizations. With the inclusion into the system of self-employed doc tors of medicine this year, the only major groups still not covered are employees of the Federal Government under Civil Service or other staff retirement systems. * Social secuity has become firmly established as the basic method in the United States of assuring aa income to in dividuals and families who suffer loss of income when the family breadwinner retires, becomes disabled, or dies, Mr. Thomas emphasized. From the beginning, the so cial security system has been self-supporting that is, the funds to provide the benefits and to pay *ll the operat ing ccsts come entirely font the social security contributions of workers, employers, and self-employed people-Quit no subsidy from general funds ol the Treasury would ever be needed. As the structure of benefits was broadened end increased, end the costs of the program went up. Congress has revised the contrbutio. gyy IE Th' mas stressed. | Monthly casta benefits eat be paid to retired workers as early as ace 62; to rtiraHrtT workers at any age; to wiwm and children of retired, dto a bled or deceased workers; and to dependent husbands, wid owers, and parents. Mew programs of heaJfla in surance for the aged hnwr now become law, Mr. Thoaa as said. These progcams, to go into effect tor the and part next July, will help pn»- vide protection gainst costo of hospitalization and infdii si care for the nation's aged. There are two parts in the health insurance program. ME. Thomas eiatioued. The fiat provides hospital insuranm protection including inpatient hospital cane and related ser vices, posthospital extended care in a qualified rfriflad nursing facility, pcethosfilto home health services, and «ad patient diagnostic sci riuas. Nearly everyone over 05 wig be eligible to get benefits un der this plan. Th second part is a rn!i— tary medical insurance plan, which will help pay costs at certain health services net covered in the hospital intf ance pre gram, including >■#- . sician's services. The hospital gag* gram will be financed by. ■ special payroll the same rate to be paid tjr employees, their and by self-employed penaga.
