The article focuses on the efforts of some of the U.S. Senators, in getting the social-security bill through the Congress. Senator Robert Wagner had been responsible supporting the bill and for getting it into the shape in which it was finally passed. It took endless time and patience, study and hard work to get this legislation through. According to Wagner people have no idea of the hours Senators must devote to the all-important committee work, the hearings, the drafting, the redrafting, revising, and amending of bills.
