Liberalize Taxes for Persons Over 65 Committee Agrees to Allow Income oi $1.200. WASHINGTON, July 20.

The Senate finance committee today voted to permit persons over 65 to earn up to $1200 yearly without losing social security benefits. Present law limts such earning to $75 monthly. The committee also voted to lower from 75 to 72, the age at which benefits can be received regardless of the amount of earning. The action liberalizing these provisions in the present law came as the committee neared final approval of social security of the items listed as a "must" on President Eisenhower's 1954 legisla- ive program. The House already has liberalized the earnings test so that a person over 65 could earn $1,000 in a year and not lose any of his social security benefits.

In addition, it provided that above the $1,000 ceiling, one monthly benefit check be suspended for each $80 earnings. The Senate committee thus went further than the House did in liberalizing the earnings provision.
