Disability policy
angers Wright
United Press International
WASHINGTON — House
Majority Leader Jim Wright of
Texas said he is outraged by So
cial Security practices cutting off
disability benefits of 42 percent
of mentally ill recipients and de
manded swift changes.
“Once again we have run
over the most helpless members
of our society,” the Democratic
congressman said. “This time it
is worse than ever.”
“We are not merely taking
advantage of those who are
poor. We are taking advantage
of those unfortunate members
of society who cannot even think
for themselves or perform the
most routine tasks required for
day-to-day living,” he said.
Wright is protesting a Gener
al Accounting Office report pre
sented last week to the Senate
Special Committee on Aging.
He said the report showed as of
August 1982, Social Security re
views had been conducted on
about 305,400 people drawing
disability benefits, and 44 per
cent “were somewhat arbitrarily
removed from the rolls.”
“About 74,800 cases reviewed
involved persons with mental
impairments, and 31,700 (or 42
percent) of them were termin
ated,” the GAO report said.
Wright called for an overhaul
of the disability cutoff practices,
noting the GAO study found be
nefits were restored in nine out
of 10 cases after a time-
consuming review by adminis
trative law judges.
He said the House Subcom
mittee on Social Security is plan
ning to hold hearings in the near
future on the disability review
procedures.

surprised by shortfall
Unite
United Press International
WASHINGTON — New car
sales rose dramatically this
month, boosting at least that
part of the economy, but the
government’s report on inven
tories was not nearly as opti
mistic.
In addition, the Treasury De
partment said income tax re
funds are not following the nor
mal pattern this year, postpon
ing the full economic stimulus
expected to be gained from last
year’s tax cut.
Economists at the Commerce
Department suggested Wednes
day the postponement may be
E art of a more serious miscalcu-
ition of withholding rates by
the Internal Revenue Service.
The error gave Americans a
smaller tax cut than Congress
ordered last year.
The stimulus effects of the
tax cuts are of major interest to
economists trying to find
reasons for lackluster consumer
spending.
Auto dealers reported April
sales improved dramatically,
shooting up 32.4 percent com
pared to a year ago, led by Gen
eral Motors’ impressive 55.2
percent increase.
The surge covered the first 10
days of the month, a period
when some automakers intro
duced even greater subsidies for
borrowing that brought the in
terest rates for company auto
loans down below 10 percent.
But the Commerce Depart
ment’s latest measure of the
level of unsold inventories
showed an increase of 0.1 per
cent in February.
Department analysts said it
was not a signal businesses were
once again rebuilding inventor
ies, a boon to factory produc
tion. Instead the month’s l.3
percent drop in sales merely
backed up unsold automobiles
