medical care for the aged pro gram under the Social Security system has" been Introduced by 16 Democratic senators Including four presidential aspirants. Democrats nope to make a strong campaign issue out of health care for the aged. The ad ministration has introduced Ms own plan, which provides volun tary insurance programs partly offset by federal-state funds. The new Democratic proposal, introduced Friday by Sen. Pat (D-Mioh), in some ways goes beyond the bill spon sored by Rep.

Aime J. Forand (D-RI). The Forand bill is stuck in a House committee and has been denounced by President Eisenhower. McNamara Is chairman of a Senate subcommittee on aging, He estimated the bill's cost at $1,578,000,000 a year when it takes full effect. The administration bill proposes expenditure of a year out of general funds, rather than through Increased Joining McNamara behind the bill were Sens.

Hubert H. Humph rey (Minn), John F. Kennedy (Mass), Wayne Morse (Ore) and Stuart Symington (Mo), aQ run ning for the Democratic presidential nomination. A main Republican criticism of the Forand bills approach Is that it would not cover those who" are not eligible for Social Security. Seeking to meet this objection, the McNamara bill would cover 11,300,000 over 65 on Social Secu rity, 1,700,000 on public assistance rolls and 1,800,000 others of retired age.

Most of the cost would be met through raising the Social Security tax per cent each on employer and employe, the same as provided in the Forand bill. A per cent tax would be placed on self-employed persons. To take care of persons not un der Social Security, the McNamara bill would provide 370 million dollars a year from general funds.
