The measure follows the lines of legislation Secretary of Welfare Arthur S. Flemming has been developing in the administration. However, the GOP senators did not claim administration backing for their proposal. One of them told a reporter he believed the 480-milIion-dollar estimated annual federal cost would be beyond what President Eisenhower would accept.

Flemming testified before a Senate subcommittee Wednesday that his plan had not yet been accepted or rejected in the administration. These are major points in the Republican senators bill: It would be administered by state agencies which would have to be set up by legislative action in the states. The state agencies would contract with private insurance firms to provide the coverage; if they could not do so, the states could furnish it themselves. Every man over 65 and his wife would be permitted to subscribe. The top rate would be $13 a month.

If the subscriber had income of less than $500 a year, he would pay nothing. If his income were between $300 and $1,000 he would pay 50 cents a month, and on up on a graduated scale until the person with more than $3,600 income would have to pay the full $13. For this coverage, the sponsors said insurance firms have estimated subscribers could get 60 days of hospital or nursing home care, surgery in or out of a hospital, medical care in a hospital, visits to a doctors office with laboratory tests, diagnostic X-rays, specialist consultation, and visiting nurse service at home.
