The Mounting Worries of the Old. Cover: Illustration by Wilson McLean. TOP OF THE WEEK: THE SOCIAL-SECURITY CRISIS: WHO WILL PAY FOR THE BAILOUT? The agreement came at the very last moment: virtually the final hour of the life of the special commission Ronald Reagan had appointed to recommend a cure for the nation's social- security system before it slid into bankruptcy. A majority of the commission approved a combination of accelerated tax increases, deferred cost-of-living raises and forced enlistment of newly hired federal workers in the system that, together, would tide social security over its immediate crisis. The package still faces a bruising battle in Congress. More serious, it fails to confront a stark and politically devastating fact of life: over the long term, social-security benefits must be reduced in a significant way if the system is to regain its financial health and the nation is to avoid a ruinous struggle between its old and its young. Page 18. HOW TO SAVE THE WORLD ECONOMY In an exclusive report for NEWSWEEK, former Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger offers a way out of the global economic crisis. He argues that growth, not austerity, offers the Third World and the West their single hope of settling crushing debts. And he warns that only a new partnership of rich and poor nations, led by the United States, can stave off economic disaster. Page 46. MASTER OF REALISM: The most important American artist of the 20th century may have been FAIRFIELD PORTER, whose innovative realism is on view in Boston. With this article, John Ashbery begins his six-month stint as NEWSWEEK'S ART critic. Mark Stevens will return in the summer. Page 72. DEPO-PROVERA DEBATE: Advocates call it the ideal contraceptive. Critics consider it a serious health hazard. Last week, the FDA set about to decide whether the powerful drug Depo-Provera, used by millions worldwide, will become a birth-control option for American women. Page 70. THE ARMS-CONTROL SHUFFLE: Under pressure from the far right, Ronald Reagan fired his disarmament chief just when chances for an arms-control deal with Moscow seemed to be improving. Yuri Andropov scored propaganda points by offering compromises, but there were hints that Reagan might eventually show some flexibility. Page 34.
