Social Security in the United States

IN the discussions on social security in Great Britain, it has already been emphasized that, at least in part, social security is an international problem. Full employment, or the reasonably high level of employment pre-supposed in the Beveridge plan, depends on the general condition of world trade as well as on the social and economic policies pursued internally in Great Britain. For that reason alone the article on "Social Security Planning in the United States", contributed by Eveline M. Burns to Agenda of December 1943, is of general interest.
