OFFICE OF THE ACTUARY, GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE (1946-1950) (41
boxes) |
| Because the Bortz descriptions
were performed on Records Boxes and NARA has subsequently shifted
these records into Archives Boxes, the descriptions match up
only very approximately with the actual physical locations of
the individual boxes. (Ignore Bortz's box numbers, except to
indicate ordinality.) |

AIDS: MLR-UD, Entry 8 |
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. |

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. |
