Social Security bill sailed
TRY gough the House by a 305-1
NOT Acer )te and thc Senate by a (il -°
___2__^J«rgi n > marking a big step to
ward Congress’ hoped-for ad
journment.
But Senate opposition to the
controversial $250 billion spend
ing ceiling sought by the Nixon
administration diminished hopes
of some that Congress would con
clude its work late Tuesday.
The Social Security bill would
raise payroll taxes to pay for the
liberalized benefits. The maxi
mum tax on a worker, matched
by his employer, would be $631.80
next year, compared with $468
this year. But part of the in
crease would occur even under
present law, which would set the
maximum for 1973 at $594.
While the bill was hailed by
most members as improving the
programs it covers, others chided
Congress — especially the Senate
—for failing once to include re
form of the welfare system in
the measure.
Rep. John W. Byrnes, R-Wis.,
said “nobody, nobody likes the
present welfare system . . . and
an important attempt to deal
with one of the most serious
problems before us has come to
nothing.”
The welfare reform section,
which the House passed last year
in essentially the form recom
mended by President Nixon, was
drastically revised by the Senate
and conferees, unable to reach a
compromise deleted the whole
title.
Welfare reform died in the pre
vious Congress under similar cir
cumstances.
Senate opposition to the spend
ing ceiling developed after critics
charged the measure did not im
pose sufficient limitations on the
President’s spending powers. It
is the chief obstacle to adjourn
ment.
The House passed 166 to 137
the compromise bill setting a
$250-billion spending ceiling and
authorizing the President to trim
money allocations to fit it.
Exempted from cuts are pen
sions and medical benefits for So
cial Security recipients, welfare
recipients, veterans, military,
civil service and railroad retirees,
and the salaries of judges.
Other budget items are grouped
in 50 categories, each of which
could be reduced not more than
20 per cent.
