The bill would guarantee persons now receiving benefits an increase of at least 5 per cent, so in some instances this figure might be exceeded. Two innovations in the new legislation do not show in these tables. It would establish a new minimum benefit for some aged workers and wives who have some Social Security coverage but not enough, under present law, to qualify.

This would be $35 for a worker or his widow; $17.50 for a wife. Also, the legislation would give widows as young as 60 the option of retiring, at a reduced monthly benefit. -COST-Present Law Proposed Tax Rate Maximum Tax Rate Maximum a Law $40.00 59.00 84.00 House-passed bill to increase so cial security benefits headed today Proposed $42.00 62.00 88.20 110.30 133.40 143.40 Proposed $63.00 93.00 132.30 165.50 200.10 215.10a Law $60.00 88.50 126.00 157.50 190.50 190.50 into a Senate move to add to it controversial health care 300 105.00 400 127.00 450 127.00 The House passed the measure I it jjr.

The tax rate is the percentage of earnings paid by an employee through withholding. The employer pays an identical amount. Self-employed persons pay times the employee rate. Under present law this tax applies to the first $4,800 of earnings. The bill would raise the maximum base to $5,400.

Voluntary Option INew York Nfiei Seme Des Moines, July 30 Conservatives forced the deletion of a proposed plank in the Iowa Republican platform denouncing extremism. During a noon recess in the party's Stale convention yesterday the platform-drafting committee, responding to pressure from State leaders of Senator Goldwater's Presidential campaign, reversed itself and removed the plank. Okayed By Delegate The margin in the fifteen-man committee was 2 to 1, the same as it had been In favor of the plank previously. The nearly 3.5O0 convention delegates then adopted without debate a platform with no mention of extremism. The action was reminiscent of that at the Republican National Convention in San Francisco two weeks ago, when proposals by moderates to include attacks on extremism in the national plat, form were defeated by the Gold-water forces.

The Iowa delegation was split on those proposals, as it was between Goldwater and Gov. William W. Scranton for the Presidential nomination. Before switches, fourteen of the 24-maa delegation voted for the Arizonan, the others for Scranton. Iowa's prepared plank on extremism, like the one offered at San Francisco by Gov.

After the House acts, a committee of both chambers will ar in final form. Similar moves earlier this year by the House supporters were abandoned in the President Eisenhower countered Gov. Orval Faubus's calling out Atlanta, July 30-Why did Governor Wallace of Alabama quit the Presidential race? Did any hidden factors underlie his action? Was the move designed to aid Senator Goldwater, the Republican nominee? Have most Wallace supporters joined the Gold-water camp? What factions make up the new Republican southern alliance? Some answers to these questions are apparent. Some are not, and many have been obscured by the maneuvering of both the Gold-water and Wallace forces. One fact generally conceded by friends and critics of the two men in Alabama was that the nomination of Goldwater and the adoption of a conservative platform by the Republican National Convention eliminated the publicly given rai-son d'etre for the Wallace candidacy.

But many politicians feel that Wallace was impelled toward withdrawal by the prospect of an embarrassing defeat in his own State and by an abrupt loss of financial support.

SOFTAS A KJSSo EASTPOINT and the MARYLAND GLADIOLUS SOCIETY AT? oust Washington, July 30 Rhode Island's Senator John O. Pastore, who will keynote the Democratic National Convention next month, is one of the Senate's most colorful and forceful orators. He has a reputation for both fearless attack and sweet reasonableness. His performance in Senate debate is a certain crowd puller and usually a show stopper. From a posture of apparent complete relaxation during desultory speeches of colleagues, he is given to coming to life with a terse summation of all that has been said and a solution frequently acceptable to both sides.

His voice fluctuates from a high pitch lhat requires no electronic devices to shake his listeners to a low-toned persuasiveness which forces silence so as not to be missed. On attack, he stabs the air with pointed finger, throws his arms wide and chops his words into incisive sentences. In more persuasive mood, he hunches up his shoulders, spreads his palms and flashes a brilliant smile beneath his close-cropped black 'mustache.
