paigner, but is very strong in the rural regions and Is expected to make a first class race.
 The simultaneou victory of the Mattingly candidate for the COP gubernatorial nomination, Jean Paul Bradshaw. may help to heal the wounds between National Com. mitteeman Barak T. Mattingly and Governor Donnell. and result in an all-out Republican effort on behalf of the whole party ticket.
 PARADOxECAL CONFLICT
 Senator Clark's defeat by Attor- ney-General Roy McKittrick em. phasized a paradoxical internal con- fiict in the Democratic Party which is very pleasing to Republicans.
 McKittrick was running on pro- Roosevelt platform calling atten- ton to Senator Clark's alleged iso- latlonism and his frequent differ ences with the president. The CLOS Political Action committee worked for McKittrick. Seemingly the pri- mary resulted in a victory for the New Deal clements in the state Democracy.
 But the presidents personally se- lected national chairman. Robert Hannegan. was for Senator Clark. So was MT. Roosevelt's running mate, Senator Truman. And the CIO was forced to back McKittrick very cautiously. 50 that if Clark had won, the PAC would not have heen on hitter record against a can- didate (Clarke whom 1t would then

Question:-I own a small bust. ness, employing three people. pay one-half the Social Security tax for these people. They get protection when they are too old to work or in case they die. What about business owners like me who help support the social security program but get no protection from it2 We need this government insurance just as much as the people who work for us.
 Answer-The Social Security Board recognizes that a fundament- al limitation of old-age and surviv- 0rs insurance is it's exclusion from the program of approximately 20,- 100000 people. In order to make available to these people the bene- fits of the program the Board has recommended in its Eighth Annual Report, submitted to Congress in January. that coverage under old- age and survivors insurance be ex- tended to those groups now exclud- ed. The self-employed are among the groups for whom coverage is eSe1atshA~et1~1s
 Question: am sixty-seven nov and I have been out sick for the past eight months. I did not retire from my job in the shop because I expected to get better enough to be able to go back to work. Some one told me had to be retired in order to collect from Social Security. Can I collect while am out sick even if might return to work some day7
 Answer-Tf you are qualified to receive monthly old age benefits. that is. if you have worked long enough in employment covered by the law to obtain a fully insured status. you may receive benefits for any month in which you earn less than si5O0 in wages at your job in covered employment. It is imma- teFial whether you intend to return to work when you are well. It is unwise to accept the advice of we'll meaning friends O.. matters per- tainin. to old-age and survivors in- surance. If you had filed an sppli- cation for benefits at the time your illness began and you were deemed qualified to receive benefits. you would have received an old-age in- surance payment each month thereafter. You should immediately get in touch with the Social secur- itv Roard field office at i0R Bank street.

recy: but always there has been. and always there win be. need of faith in the Cross of Calvary on which the Goldman died for you and for me. And so the Sign of the Gross has lived down through tho ages the same sign except that 1t is now made conspicuously with the iin- gers Of the right hand whi-h out- line the cross from the forehead to the chest and from the left shoulder to the right. AS this sign of Faith is made. the following words are spoken: Tn the name Of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost an act of Faith also in the great nys- tery of the Blessed Trinity.
 "All over the world Catholics begin and end their prayers with the Sign of the Cross. which we call blessing ourselves" because so beautiful an act of faith brings down Heavens blessings upon us. In the Mass, in the administering of the Sacraments and in most all prayers and ceremonies, the Sign of the Gross is made many times. And we Catholics, are proud of it because 1t is like many of our time-hallowed customs. symbols and ceremonies, preg- nant with meaning, devotion and humble faith.
 50 let the little waitress bless herself whenever the lightning flashes: for remember that an all- hearing God must hear her plea and that all-powerful God can stop storm today on a golf course just as readily as He stopped a storm another day on the sea Of Galilee."
 Please feel free to write us for anything else you'd like to know about Catholic beliefs and prac. tLee. Address: St. FraEcls Xavier Children of Mary, 625 Baldwin street. Waterbury.

Democratic Dilemma May Win Missouri For Dewey And Bricler

have had to support la order Co help hold down the Dewey-Bricker vote in Missouri.
 McRittrick got enough votes oue of this cross-current Go win the nomination, but many observers feel that he will make a weaker candls date, in November. than Senator Clark would have been, and that the Roosevelt Truman ticket will be the loser because Of the New Deal CTO victory in the primaries.
 On the Republican side the fight between Governor Donnell ana Committeeman Mattingly's organi~ zation was intense and acrimonious. It was so bad, indeed, that at the state convention last spring the Re. publican governor was given no part mot so much as courtesy intro~ ductlon--in his own party's proceed. ings.
 It did not, however. concern or affect allegiance to Governor Dew- ey. Both the governor and the cofns mitteeman were staunch protagoa- ists of Mir. Dewey's nomination, which will make it the easier for them to bury the hatchet-now that each has one of the two top places on the state tlcket--and pull to- gether for party victory in Novem. Der.
 MAY SHIFT TO COP
 It was really in part because of this fight, and the strained rela- tiong it produced. that the conven- ton of the country's % Republican governors was brought Co St. Louis at this time. To avoid enbarrass- ment arising from the fight Cover nor Dewey, at the last minute. In. terpolated a visit to Springfield. I'll, for Missouri primary day. instead of coming directly here from Pitts- burgh as he had planned. and stop- ping in Illinois on the way home.
 Missouri is the most populous of the border states. and now, as things appear to be turning out. is consid- cred as probably the most. likely to shift this fall to the COP electoral column.
 It is not. by any means. walk over. If it can be delivered-against the special efforts that will be made by those two eminent Democratic Missourians. vlce-presidential cans dldate Truman and National Chair man Hannegan-the victory vii be a bright feather in the caps Of the Republican organization.
