Presi dent F ran k lin referred to the legislation as the “cornerstone in a structure which is being built*but is by no means com plete.’’The events of the past 50 years confirm this description. An important feature of S ocial Security is its ability to ad ap t to society’s changing needs. Cir cum stances today are very dif ferent from w hat they were 50 years ago, but the program is ju st as responsive now as it was then. In 1930, 5.4 percent of the population was agei 65 d r older, compared with 11 percent today. By th e year 2030, 55 million Americans— 18 percent o f the population—will be at least 65. The average life expectancy at 65 fo r men is 13 years, and 17 for women. M en and women now 75 can expect to live another 9 to 12 years, respectively. The past 50 years have also witnessed a marked change in the role of women is society. W hen ike Social Security Act first became law, the typical family unit was com posed o f a working husband, a homemaker wife, and one or m ore children. Today, half of all the Women work, and they account fo r 43 p e rc e n t Of th e la b o r force. D uring the last decade alone, the num ber of women in pro fessional jobs has increased by tw o-thirds, and the num ber in m anagerial jobs has doubled. , ,The longer lifespan efljoyed by Americans has been accom p an ied by low er b irth ra te s, Todays women have an average of 1.7 children, com pared with 3.7 in the late 1950’s. If the trend continues, it is estimated that by 2035, there will be only two w orkers paying Social Security taxes for each person getting benefits. As these and other changes over the past half century took place, the Social Security Act was am ended to keep up to date with the times^ The first signifi cant am endm ents, enacted in 1939even before the first monthly benefits were paid in 1940, p ro vided benefits to certain depen dents and ’survivors of insured workers. In the 195O’s, Social Security coverage was extended to include m ost types of jobs, as well as self-employrheht. Disability insurance was added in the late 1950’s, and M edicare was enacted in 1965. There were also changes in eligibility re quirements, and autom atic cost- of-living benefit increases were first paid in 1975. M ore recently, the Social Security Amendments, of 1983 greatly strengthened the program financing. This flexibility to cope with and solve emerging prob lems has been m atched by a stability th at has kept the pro gram true to its basic principles. Social Security has lifted mil lions of people out of poverty and has enabled beneficiaries to live their lives in modest com fort. The program is as relevant fOir the 198O’s and beyond as it was when if was first enacted. Social Security: Partnership With Tomorrow!

In 1979 Warn} Springs was aw arded funds to design a pre vention program. An outside cori- sultant designed a program n th -' deled to W arm Springs. Tills program proved to be-ineffec tive. . The.briginal “H ere’s Looking At You” program was then imple m ented w ith te ac h ers being trained on a volunteer basis. Thirteen of the 18 teachers at W arm Springs Elem entary ih the school year 1981-82 imple mented the program . Fifteen out of 18 teachers were using it the following school year; M adras Jr. High included the program in 1983 with a pro gram concerned with both drugs and alcohol. The curriculum was purchased with Johnson O ’M alley funds. All classroom s at W arm Springs Elementary except for one fourth grade class implemented the program th at Same year. A prevention educator was hired in 1984. After three years in use an evaluation of the program was conducted using pre-testing and post-testing on fourth, fifth and sixth graders at W arm Springs Elem entary who had been ex posed to the curriculum. A group who did n o t receive exposure was ajso.tested. Knowledge, de cision making, self concept and coning skills were the variables the program . Self-esteem increased with ex posure to the prevention pro gram. It was found th at decision making abilities in both exposed group and the control group showed a decline b u t the exper imental group stayed ahead show ing th a t peer influences may be counteracting the curriculum but not so much in students exposed to the prevention program. Coping skills were much hig her for the experim ental group than the control group. It was concluded, also, that early curriculum exposure, be fore Jr. High, produces more favorable results. It was felt, h o w ev er, th a t the p ro g ra m should be enhanced with parent workshops,'teacher consultation and refusal skills. The program will not prevent alcohol and drug abuse but may well inhibit o r blunt such tendencies by stu dents. It was determ ined through the evaluation that, knowledge of drugs and alcohol an d prev- ention increased for all three grade levels for students using New #s at college D irect inward dial service be gan July 5 a t C entral Oregon Com m unity College. lit addi tion to the regular switchboard num ber, 382-6112, certain Col lege offices may be reached by dialing new numbers.
