There are from 2.400.000 to 2.600.000 under the State and municipal system. So that when this bill passes we shall have given a maximum insurance against the real. absolute certainties against which it is possible to take appropriate safeguards. namely. arrival at retirement age. or premature death. to more than 51.000.000 people in the United States. When we subtract from the total population the men and women in the Armed Forces who do not enter into the labor pool. it is possible to see that about the only people omitted from this system are the farmer. the migrant farm worker. and the occasional domestic servant. together with a few professionals. 400.000 of them. perhaps. who do not want to come under the system. We want the system to carry itself. We want a system which will be sound.
