URGE EXTENSION OF
S OCIA i S E CUR I T Y BE NEE i T5
Farm or3 *13,2 c tion views on extending
Social security legislation to farm
ers have ~b^cr presented to the Sen
ate agriculture Committee.
Spokesmen lor four f^rm groups ap
peared before Committee hearings on
a House-massed bill to add about'
11,000,000 persons to the 35,000,000
now covered by old age and survivors
insurance and raise the scale of
^benefits.
' hile the l ouse measure would extend
covera.ge to some additional agricul
tural processing workers, it would
exclude farm employees and operators.
The National Grange and the National
Farmers Union have recommended that
both farm laborers and operators be
brought .vithin the Social Security
System. The American Farm Bureau
Federation urged that farm workers
be included, but opposed coverage
of farm owners at this time. The
Milk Producers Fed. urged that cov
erage be extended to f^rm workers
f>nd farm owners bo allowed to parti
cipate if thejf desired to do so.
