Britain, it is sometimes forgotten, initiated social services in the modern sense of the word, and still leads the worlds in that respect. Almost fifty years ago a group of far - seeing Englishmen, Queen Victoria´s Counsellors, met to discuss a scheme for providing a small sum of money for all people who were too old to work and earn their living —the first pensions scheme. From this has evolved the present Old -age Pension. All non-manual workers in Britain earning less than £420 a year are compelled by law to contribute a small weekly sum from their earnings to the National Health Insurance Contributory Pensions Scheme. The employer also contributes. Under this scheme every employee knows that when he reaches the age of sixty-five, he can be sure of a minimum weekly payment of the shillings, and in war-time there are additional allowances paid to meet the increased cost of living. The English are proverbially fond of their afternoon tea. Here are two old - age pensioners sitting happily by their fire. They can spend their remaining years in quiet content, knowing they will never be penniless. Many of these pensioners send small contributions to the Goverment towards the purchase of war weapons.
