The House pat ' the amendments through by the . almost unanimous vote of 361 to 2. It liberalized old age insurance benefits, deferred defer-red the tax increase that was due to , go into effect next January, and sent the revisions alortgr to tie Senate with everybody happy. But it made practically inevitr able a thundering tax; increase or a new bulge in the annual deficit -a few years from now. Old age insurance is financed by a 2. per cent payroll tax, collected half from the employed and half from the employe. This was; to have gone to 3 per cent next Janu ary.: That'boost was" canceled; .the tax is, now due to Jump to 4 per cent in ,1943, 5 per -cent in 1946, and 6 per cent in 1949. Payments Up j Collections Down Meanwhile, benefit payments were boosted. Payments begin next Jan. 1, instead of in 1942, as orr iginally scheduled. Furthermore, benefits are ,to be abased , on the beneficiary's average wage rather than his total tax contribution. . ,. . Summed up, tliis means that, during . the' next-15 years, the government will pay in old age insurance just less than, $15,-000,000,000, $15,-000,000,000, . as . compared .with the $6500,000,000 it would , pay, if the law. were not amended.
