SOCIAL SECURITY PLAN
PREPARED IN UNITED STATES. PRESIDENT’S END OF WAR PREDICTION. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) NEW YORK, January 7. The “Herald Tribune’s” Washington correspondent, says that an American Beveridge plan, encompassing a cradle-to-grave social security programme, has been prepared for submission to Congress. The plan, at which President Roosevelt hinted, guarantees economic security to all Americans, including the men now in the armed forces, by extending the present old age insurance programme, liberalising unemployment and disability insurance, and proposing a hospital treatment scheme. The “Herald Tribune” and “Daily News” points out that President Roosevelt predicted in unmistakable language a possible Axis defeat in 1944 by the statement, “The seventy-eighth Congress may have the historic privilege of helping to save the world from future fears.”
