WASHINGTON, (^—President
Truman Monday signed the re
vised social security bill adding
approximately 10,000,000 persons
to the old age pension rolls.
The White House indicated
* I
there would be a statement later.
Mr. Truman has expressed
strong objections to one part of
the measure as it went through
Congress. That is a provision lim
iting the power of the secretary of
labor to cut off unemployment in
surance funds from states whose
systems he holds do not conform
to federal standards.
The millions of additional work
ers will come under the old age
benefit program and begin paying
payroll taxes next January 1.
Persons now retired will start
getting bigger checks a few weeks
hence, in October.
The new law also more than
doubles payroll taxes over the
1 next 20 years, to help pay for the
larger benefits. The payroll taxes
will increase from $2,500,000,000
this year to about $7,800,000,000
in 1970.
Half of the earth’s known uran
ium deposits are in the Shinko
lobwe mine in the Belgian Congo.
