Siates Planning to Reap Benefit of Pension Law Thirty. States Arranging for Special Legislative Sessions in Line With Security Act. Washington. High government officials said that thirty states were reported planning special legislative sessions to vote laws enabling them to benefit from the social security act. No list of the states was avail able. Some of the states were said to plan old age pension or unemploy ment laws. Others expected to mod ify present laws to meet require ments of the federal act, either with respect to old age pensions, mothers' aid or child aid provisions. A study of the state laws to see which of them meet specifications of the social security act will be the first task of the social insurance board after it is named and its staff has been selected. A list of half dozen or more names has been drawn up for President Roosevelt from which he will select the three board mem bers. The names on this list were a close secret, but some officials said A. J. Altmeyer, second assistant sec retary of labor, virtually was certain to be a member, if not chairman. Miss Margie E. Neal of Dallas, Tex., has been put forward as another probable member. Residence Requirements. A fresh study of the residence re quirements of the old age pension laws in the twenty-eight states that had them in effect before the pass age of . .the. jaational act disclosed. Tuesday that only one Delaware met the - residence specifications of the social security act. A few states changed their laws while the social security legislation was pending, however, to bring them into line, and seven new states have passed such laws. Of the twenty-eight states that had laws, one, Arizona, required that the person pensioned should have lived in the state thirty-nve years before receiving it. Massachu setts and North Dakota required twenty years of residence. The oth ers required either ten or fifteen, save for Delaware, which provided for the payment of pensions to per sons who had lived there five years. The federal act requires five years' residence. It also specifies that the states shall pay pensions to any per son who is a citizen, without respect to how long he or she has been one. Delaware is the only state whose law does not require that the pen sioner be a citizen. Several require simply that they shall be citizens, but the others specify that they shall have been a citizen for fifteen years. Hawaii requires thirty years' citi zenship. Some of the states will have to change their laws to maintajin a tighter supervision over the plan in effect. The federal law requires that it shall be operative all over the state and shall be mandatory.
