Fort Worth's 117 postmen late
today will carry to all employers
of one or more persons the blanks
which will be used in the govern-
ment's social security program to
protect workers against the eco-
nomic misfortunes of old age.
Blanks for rural delivery went
out on the first mail this morning,
hut Postmaster Henry Young de-
rided that the city circulation
would not be made until the last
delivery this afternoon. That is
because Monday mail is always
heavy.
Mr. Young expects to deliver
about 8000 blanks in the city to-
day. He said the carriers will re-
main on duty until all have been
delivered.
Payments Start Jan. 1
The completed blanks must be
returned by the employers by Nov.
21. Then, on Nov. 24, the post-
men will start out again with a
similar load — the blanks which
will be used by employes.
Throughout the United States
about 26,000,000 of the 50,000,000
employes will be eligible, social
security experts believe. These
will start paying taxes on their
wages Jan. 1 to create the, pen-
sion fund for old age.
At that time, the Government
will start collecting a 2 per cent
contributory tax, shared half by
employes and half by employers,
from the nation's payroll.
The levy will increase to 6 per
cent by 1949, exempting about
14,000,000 agricultural workers,
persons employed by federal, state
or local governments, sailors, do-
mestic servants in private homes,
railroad employes already protect-
ed by the Railroad Retirement
Act. and persons connected with
non-profit organizations.
Payments Start At 65
The money pouring into the U. 8.
Treasury at the rate of $247,000,-
000 next year and $1,341,800,000
every 12 months by 1975, will pro-
vide monthly pensions ranging
from $10 to $85 a month for 26,-
000,000 workers as they reach 65.
Benefits will start Jan. 1, 1942,
giving the employe-employer re-
serve fund a $3,656,600,000 total
by that time. The fact that tax
.collections always will exceed pen-
sion payments makes it possible
for the Treasury to have funds on
hand amounting to around $45,-
368.300,000 by 1975.
The blanks distributed to em-
ployers today presented seven
questions for business heads to an-
swer. They covered the type of
work done by each firm, its loca-
tion. and the number of persons
employed.
26 Millions Eligible
Using that information. Post-
office officials co-operating with
56 newly-established social secur-
ity field headquarters, will provide
employe’s program forms to 50,-
000.000 workers on Nov. 24.
- The 26,000,000 . persons found
able to qualify for participation
in the benefit plan will be listed on
record cards filed in the country's
largest system, now being estab-
lished by the Social Security Board
at Baltimore, Md.
The old age pension program is
operating separately from other
phases of governmental social se-
turity..

Attorney Finds
A copyist's error today threat-
ened the validity of Fort Worth's
new "loan shark” ordinance.
City Attorney R. E. Rouer dis-
covered that the title, or caption,
was omitted from the measure,
adopted by City Council last
Thursday.
Newspaper publication of the
ordinance which started Friday,
was halted by City Secretary Hen-
ry Keller after a conference with
the attorney,
Mr. Rouer said the omitted title
should read: "An ordinance regu-
lating loan companies," and should
precede the body- of the new law.
“There’s nothing seriously
wrong with the way it was adopt-
ed-it's just a matter of form,”
the attorney said.
"We have to be mighty careful
about things in criminal law, and
I'd rather have the title published
with the ordinance."
Mr. Rouer said he did not know
whether It would be necessary for
Council to re-adopt the measure,
which was to have become effect-
Ive next Thursday. If the correc-
lion la made without formal ap-
proval by Council, and publication
is resumed tomorrow, the law will
go into effect next Monday after
five days' publication.
The ordinance requires all per-
sonal loan agencies to take out a
city license, post a $1000 bond
against which persons claiming
damage may sue and sets up other
regulations.
