Dow Chemical Social Welfare System Claimed Best in World Moscow -tCPA-Victor Grish- in, secretary of the Soviet Trade Unions, told the Su preme Soviet (Parliament) to day the average wage would go up by 11 per cent next year and that : the Soviet Union within another year would boast 1 the world's shortest work week. , He also claimed the Soviet social welfare system was the best in the world and said competitive co existence would prove the overall su periority of the socialist 'over capitalist economy.

No one doubted that they will end the discussions with , unani mous approval since that, is what generally happens to measures introduced by Pre mier Nikita S. Khrushchev's government. - - , The budget keeps defense spending at its present level $24 billion-but because of in creased amounts for science and. welfare state benefits, the defense percentage fell from 19.9 to 12 compared to last year. - Science appropriations which could cover many items useful for defense were raised 15 per cent to $8,200,000,000. Housing, consumer goods, pen sions, education, culture and health all were increased. Even though the Soviet legislators were spending less time questioning the budget than their counterparts in Western parliaments do, there was some criticism of the way money was being spent. that would have sounded at home in the U.S. Congress.
