(This is the first of two articles on “Social Security ¡or the Turmers.") When the navy announced its plan for the biggest postwar boom in history — its intention to blow a 97-ship fleet skyhigh with the atom bomb—I couldn’t help recalling the answer which a little girl gave to a reporter before the war ended. He asked her: “What do you want to be when you grow up?” The youngster replied. “Alive.” In this atomic era. it’s pleasant ' to note, then, that there are at least two groups of people in this country who not only assume that j most of us will stay alive for a rea sonable period, but who are making plans based on that assumption. One group comprises the radar experts who earnestly promise we'11 be rocketing to the moon and back by 1996—stopping to refuel along the lunar skyway at filler-up stations suspended in space and perhaps plucking moonflowers in a hanging garden. The second group is the National Planning association — specifically its agriculture committee—which expects.the farmer not only to grow up. but to live at least to the age of 65. at which time he will want to retire. Making that retirement pos sible is the subject of a new NPA bulletin by Murray R. Benedict, professor of agricultural economics at the University of California. Why is the farmer so favored? Is he the only worker who wants to re tire and live out his old age in rea sonable financial security? What about the tired-out typist? Isn’t the weary welder worthy? Be that as it may. Mr, Benedict's retiremenf plan is based solely on bringing the farmer into the fed eral social security system. Most industrial and white collar workers like typists, welders and butchers, are already covered by social secu rity. When the time comes for them to quit work for good, they can count on a small, but regular monthly income from social secu rity benefits. Not so the farmer. When he can work no longer, he has to live off what he's saved or by selling the south forty—and if he hasn't saved anything, that's his hard luck—or whoever has to take care of him.

For the same reason, they passed over the self-employed worker, the do mestic employee, the government and railroad worker, the employee in non-profit organizations. Such workers posed too much of an ad ministrative problem, the legisla tors felt, so they left them out, as far as social security was concerned.
