| The 12 (Records Boxes) from
No.25 through No.36 make up the records of the Office (later
the Division) of the Actuary for the period 1946-1950. The duties
of the actuary consisted chiefly of conducting studies and estimates
on long-range cost factors, such as mortality, wage and population
structures, in relation to existing social security programs
and in relation to proposed changes. Boxes 25-26 [000-032.1] (A-Z) Of significance are the analyses of various legislative proposals being considered during these years, and records of the material and services provided congressional committees (particularly the Senate Finance and House Ways and Means Committees). There is material here on the evolution of and critical comments about the 1950 amendments, including correspondence with other Federal officials on this and other topics. Under 025 are records of dealings with non-government actuaries, especially with the Actuarial Advisory Committee to the Social Security Administration. Various studies were prepared and other material provided to the Senate Finance Committee's Advisory Council on Social Security. Material on the training of actuarial personnel is found under 027, as are also files indicating relations with other governmental actuaries. Noteworthy are records of the visits made to foreign countries and the aid provided them by Robert J. Myers in his capacity as the Social Security Administration's actuary. Boxes 27-31 [032.2-081] Most of the material in these five boxes treats research activities; exceptions include the 040's in the beginning of Box 27; a few items in Box 31 that cover speeches by Actuaries W. R. Williamson and Robert J. Myers; some comments on articles and on Social Security Administration publications; and a review of articles and books on union insurance plans. The 040's provide some insight into the organization of the actuary's office itself, and its responsibilities and problems. There is also a large body of comment on various proposals of the Hoover Commission regarding reorganization, and comment on the periodic reports of various Federal agencies. The 050's treat first the research responsibilities of the actuary, the various Government committees on which the office had representation, and the considerable correspondence it carried on with the Bureau of the Budget and with nongovemment actuaries. Then follow the data, analyses, and comments on various health, accident, and retirement plans; correspondence and meetings with representatives of unions, insurance companies, and industry; developments in social insurance in foreign countries, and in domestic retirement systems established for the military and for civil servants, for railroad workers, and employees of Congress, the United Nations, the Veterans' Administration, nonprofit institutions, and for local and State employees. Quantities of data cover such areas as population estimates, longevity trends, birth rates, economic status of the aged and of dependent orphans, numbers of physicians and dentists, and composition of the labor force--including the rate of unemployment and the number of aged in the group. Research was done on the costs of sickness and disability insurance, workmen's compensation, voluntary health insurance plans (hospital, Blue Cross, union); and on the financial details of the OASI trust fund. There are studies treating most of these topics. Robert J. Myers and his predecessor, William R. Williamson, wrote many articles, provided comments on publications and speeches, and provided material for congressional committees and the Advisory Council to the Senate of 1947-1948. All of this reflects the views of both actuaries on issues and social welfare programs in general. Boxes 32-33 [095-280] The bulk of these two boxes is made up of correspondence between the actuary's office and individuals or organizations, all of it arranged in alphabetical order. The chief group concerns actuaries, both inside and outside the Government. Included, too, are a few items on budget matters. The 201 material on Mr. Myers and on Mr. Williamson provides detail on their careers; other items take up performance ratings and actuary job standards. Box 34 [300-370] This box, entirely taken up with administrative files, provides details on committee meetings attended, including some of the minutes, procedural practices, and administrative changes affecting the actuary's office (especially those resulting from budgetary cuts). There are comments on the annual reports of the Social Security Administration, and copies of the quarterly and monthly progress reports and work plans prepared by the actuarial staff. The publications prepared by the actuary's office, various administrative changes, and duties of the staff members are shown here. Significant is a detailed survey of the office itself carried out by another Social Security Administration staff member. All these provide considerable history of the actuary's office in this period and for some years before. The files explain this office's relations with other elements of the Social Security Administration, and show Mr. Williamson's philosophy of what the scope and function of the actuary's office should be. Under 370 are the records of all the groups to which the actuary belonged or corresponded with, and details of any meetings attended. These were regional, national and international in scope. Boxes 35-36 [500-754.4] In these boxes are a limited number of items dealing with unemployment compensation; data on Federal grants programs, temporary disability insurance and public assistance programs; statistics on the number of almshouses remaining; and discussions on responsibility of relatives to the needy. Most of the material here relates to old-age insurance. Among topics included are the following: anomalies in the 1946 amendments; data on individual resources and income; the reserve fund and interest rate on investments; the number of account holders; population and wage totals; age of retirement; contribution rates; and refund of taxes paid on the $3,000 wage base. Comment was made on the OASI trust fund report and others in the old-age insurance area; on the "double-decker" proposals; on extending coverage to additional groups; and on combining the railroad retirement and OASI systems. The most valuable comments deal with the various formulas and other proposals considered during the debate preceding the enactment of the 1950 old-age insurance amendments, and with their anticipated effects. |

| Here too Bortz was describing things at the Records Box level whereas the documents have since been rehoused in Archives Boxes. The 24 Records Boxes described by Bortz thus become 58 Archives Boxes in the current inventory. Thus the Bortz descriptions are only very approximately associated with particular boxes. We are, however, providing a detailed listing of the actual box locations and the titles of each folder in all 58 boxes. Comparing the Folder Titles to Bortz's narratives will provide a fairly good idea of the contents of this collection. | ||||

| Boxes 3-6 These four boxes contain the records of I. S. Falk, who was the director of the Bureau of Research and Statistics and the subsequent Division of Research and Statistics.{27} These records go back as far as 1929, and extend forward beyond 1950. They include more than the items related to the Social Security Administration, and more than the personal files of Dr. Falk. All sorts of items are here: letters, speeches, articles, reports, studies, and survey data covering many subjects. Some of these Dr. Falk prepared, others were done by members of his staff, still others by persons he knew, corresponded with, or who he thought played important roles in various social welfare movements. The major subject covered in these records is health insurance--and the drive to secure laws providing for a health insurance program. The first major group of records--in terms of chronology--deals with the work of the Committee on the Costs of Medical Care, of which Dr. Falk was the associate director. In this are articles, booklets, abstracts, survey data, along with minutes of meetings held in 1929, 1930, 1931, and 1932. This is followed by materials on the activities of the Milbank Fund (for which Dr. Falk was research associate) in the area of health insurance and medical care. This takes the form of reports prepared, meetings attended, and correspondence carried on with many interested parties. An essential body of correspondence--running from l933-l942--was that which Dr. Falk carried on with Michael M. Davis, who (among his many activities in the health insurance field) was chairman of the Committee on Research in Medical Economics, and director of medical service with the Julius Rosenwald Fund. Included are copies of letters to Dr. Davis from other individuals who were also deeply concerned with medical insurance legislation, along with copies of Dr. Davis' own articles and speeches. Another large body of material is taken up with Dr. Falk's role as deputy to Edgar Sydenstricker, who headed up the health insurance staff of the Committee on Economic Security. There are several drafts of the report "Risks to Economic Security Arising Out of Ill Health" and numerous other reports; masses of data from Mr. Sydenstricker's staff and from outsiders on all aspects of health insurance; correspondence and reports from the various subcommittees of Mr. Sydenstricker's staff (medical, dental, hospital, nursing, and public health); details on selection of members to these groups, minutes of their meetings, and of meetings held by Mr. Sydenstricker's own group. Press clippings for 1934 and the 2 succeeding years give some of the public and editorial reactions to the health insurance issue. Correspondence of Dr. Falk with Mr. Sydenstricker in the years 1934 and 1935 is especially interesting, as is also that carried on with Edwin E. Witte, executive director of the Committee on Economic Security. (It appears that much of this material was once a part of the records collection of the Committee on Economic Security.) Another body of material here involves the American Medical Association. It reflects the views and attitudes of leading spokesmen of that organization, and contains summaries of proceedings, articles, booklets, pamphlets, and correspondence with its officials. The material itself begins in 1916, goes through the 1920's, and ends in the late 1930's. Miscellaneous files include correspondence with the Committee of Physicians for the Improvement of Medical Care (1937-1938), which was a pro-health-insurance group, and with other similar groups, both before and after this time period; the materials Dr. Falk provided the 1937-1938 Advisory Council on Social Security; huge banks of data on medical care costs, individual and family income; and such odds and ends as a survey of the activities of I. M. Rubinow--beginning with his service as secretary of the American Medical Association's Committee on Social Insurance in 1916 and 1917. Box 7 This box contains loose papers, with no file classification. Here are found copies of the various studies made, and some evidence of the quantity of statistics compiled and surveys conducted in various cities--particularly on health conditions and family composition in 1941-1942. Boxes 8-10 [008-050] Here begin the decimal files of the Bureau of Research and Statistics. In these three boxes is found correspondence with the International Labor Organization and with maritime unions relating to their specific problems, and with the Veterans' Administration on veterans' benefits. In the 011 classification, the researcher will find legislative matter with some analysis, discussion and comments, as well as suggestions offered by research and statistics personnel. Specifically, these refer to the 1946 amendments to the act, to the various Wagner, Murray, Dingell and other health proposals, and, in considerable detail, to the 1950 amendments. In addition, there is a numerical file of House and Senate bills which, if passed, would have involved the Social Security Administration in administering them. The questions of definition and terminology to be used in connection with the act are treated and there is some correspondence with labor unions, business firms, and other groups and individuals on the same subject. The 025, 026 and 027 classifications cover the research and statistics activities related to work with various committees, including interagency, inter-government and non-government groups, as well as with congressional and inter-American groups, and elements of the ILO and UN; the materials provided to these organizations and groups; and issues and problems of disability, unemployment insurance, training and personnel, and children's welfare. A monthly report here reflects the Social Security Administration's important international activities. Under 031 and 032 is found evidence of relations with the Chief Executive and with Congress. To the President went some items for use in his messages, including economic and other data; to congressional committees went statistical materials for use at hearings; to individual Congressmen went material for use in answering letters and preparing speeches. Materials in Box 10 treat the relationship with other Federal agencies, especially with the Bureau of the Census in regard to statistical data. In this same box there are also the 050's--relating to the organization's activities involving demographic surveys and statistical data. Material on these subjects was passed on to Congressmen, to State officials, college and university faculty, businessmen, unions, and to individuals working on books and magazine articles. Also, there are some analyses of union retirement and health plans. Boxes 11-17 [050.1-058.l5] Here can be found the important part of the Research and Statistics files, for records in these boxes cover in great detail the total research picture: the studies prepared, the data collected, and the views expressed and recommendations made on proposed legislation. A great deal of analytical work was done by staff personnel in studying insurance systems for employees of the United Nations, State and local governments, unions, and the Federal Civil Service; these related to retirement, disability, sickness, accident, and other kinds of insurance. Considerable time was given to the analysis of foreign social security systems and the collection of bibliographical materials. This involved correspondence with foreign officials and others in many countries. Quantities of data were collected covering marriage and mortality rates, including causes of death; population estimates; fertility rates; age distribution; numbers of children and orphans; income and budgets of families, particularly the aged; and housing. Then, too, there is information on the size and composition of the labor force, with breakdowns for certain industries; the number of employed and unemployed; the number of aged and of women, and how many of these two groups were employed; wage loss due to sickness; absenteeism from work; and industrial classification. Among the organizations contacted in connection with these statistics were the Bureau of the Census, various elements of the Department of Labor, and outside groups, such as labor unions. There is much material on the possibilities and costs of extending old-age insurance coverage to new groups. Health insurance received a great deal of attention in this period. Data were collected and numerous studies made of hospital and medical costs, including labor, doctor, dental, and drug costs; the number of doctors in practice, and their incomes; Blue Cross and other prepaid programs; and Federal contributions to medical education and research. Careful analyses and appraisals were made of legislative proposals in the health insurance area and on disability. The President was provided with material for his messages on health and health insurance. Health workshops were arranged, along with work-study and rural medical care conferences. Articles were prepared and reviews were made of articles and books on the subject of health and health insurance. Proposals on health insurance coverage began to narrow themselves to beneficiaries of old-age and survivors insurance (OASI). The files reflect the amount of time involved in answering inquiries from within and outside the Federal Government. The views of the American Medical Association toward various types of voluntary health insurance proposals were carefully studied. These were gleaned from its correspondence and publications, and from meetings held with members of the association. Research and Statistics personnel had dealings with Michael Davis' Committee on Research in Medical Economics, the Committee for the Nation's Health, and The Physicians Forum, Inc.--groups holding views in opposition to those of the American Medical Association; there were contacts also with nursing and public health organizations. The charge leveled by a congressional subcommittee against the Social Security Administration, to the effect that it was leading a propaganda drive to impose health insurance on the country, had to be answered in great detail. Further analytical work concerned activities of individual States in the area of health insurance, especially the State of California. Related to this were the study and the data collection on workmen's compensation legislation and procedural changes instituted. Other systems, such as railroad retirement, Federal Civil Service and veterans' plans were studied as to the cash sickness and disability benefits they provided. Under 058 can be found the monthly reports prepared by research and statistics staff, reflecting financial operations such as administration and operational costs, income received, investment of trust fund moneys, and forecasts of future income based on a periodic assessment of the Nation's economy as a whole. Other studies involved State government financing in the public assistance and unemployment insurance areas, along with a study of the issue of interstate reciprocity in these two areas. This also involved discussion with many persons in the Social Security Administration on the grant-in-aid programs and various formulas related to this subject. Boxes 18-20 [058.151-062.2] Here are more studies dealing with grant-in-aid programs and the various proposed formulas to be used, research treating the income tax, and the interest and income returns on trust fund investments; the effect of social security taxes on the economy; the costs of adding the self-employed to old-age benefit ranks; and the study of technical aspects, including overpayment of social security taxes and problems resulting therefrom. The bulk of material in these three boxes is concerned with the informational activities of the Social Security Administration, as viewed by research and statistics personnel. There is a summary of the aid they provided in the way of data prepared, comments and proposals offered. A collection of the results of some 30 polls reflected the public's views toward medical care. The Labor Research Group, organized earlier by research and statistics staff, continued to meet with various representatives from organized labor unions, as indicated by the periodic meetings held. Detailed minutes of the proceedings are in some cases included. The speeches made by I. S. Falk in this period are here, along with a smaller number made by Mr. Altmeyer, Mr. Bigge (ex-Board member and by then in charge of Federal-State Relations in the Federal Security Agency), and some made by nongovemment individuals. The details are given in the many publications that were printed and distributed. Considerable information is included on the Social Security Bulletin and its Yearbook, as to purpose and method of operation, correspondence, and discussions on articles proposed and printed; the costs involved and distribution procedures practiced. Included, too, are comments made of other Social Security Administration publications, along with a list of previously prepared research and statistics publications. Practically all of Box 20 is taken up with individual folders--in alphabetical order--containing correspondence with organizations, businesses, and individuals. This concerns various subjects, but the largest area deals with health insurance. Of particular note is the additional evidence as to the position of the American Medical Association toward this highly controversial issue. Boxes 21-22 [081-675] These two boxes cover several subjects. There is an alphabetical collection of personnel folders (201's) of employees in the Bureau of Research and Statistics. Most of the folders are of little consequence. In the 300's (the administrative series), the researcher will find some of the Federal Security Agency's orders and bulletins, and a few items that treat the Children's Bureau research program. In the 317 series are procedures for preparing reports, including the Annual Report of the Social Security Administration. Of particular significance here are the various research and statistics reports--from bureau level down to most of the subordinate units--submitted monthly, quarterly, semiannually and annually. Both progress reports and work plans are included. These describe the work being planned, what the priorities were, and what was being accomplished. Under 320, the files show the cooperation established with other bureaus, and the problems in coordinating research activities throughout the Social Security Administration--including those resulting from the transfer of the Bureau of Employment Security out of the Federal Security Agency and into the Department of Labor. Under 331 are training items; noteworthy are files on correspondence with Karl de Schweinitz and the Institutes on Social Security of the Committee on Education and Social Security. Information on various meetings attended by staff personnel is filed under 370; also indicated is the variety of organizations to which the research and statistics staff belonged. These covered such subjects as general health matters, health insurance, family life, juvenile delinquency, and statistics. A few items on public assistance and unemployment insurance, none of them important ones, complete the contents of these boxes. Boxes 23-24 [700-532.106] (Boxes also marked Region XIV) Materials in these two boxes complete the research and statistics files. A few items provide limited information on workmen's compensation, disability, cash sickness programs, and unemployment benefit laws among the individual States. Most of the material here, however, deals with the OASI program. Apparently, considerable time was taken up in providing information on various aspects of the OASI system. Subjects covered include: costs of the program, benefit formulas, industrial classification, terminology, and the study of various proposals to extend coverage to new groups; also mentioned is the "double-decker" scheme. There was considerable correspondence, especially with the Bureau of the Budget. |
