A wedding made possible by SO. clai security was reported to oilo of the field offices Of the Social Security Board last fnnoth. The story was told by MT. Mullarkey manager of the office In Water' bury.
 An attractive girl of twenty called ct the office which had helped her mother fiie c claim for oid.ago and survivors iE1suranee after tho death of her father c short time before. She had come, she said, to toll about her Eiiar' riage.
 "I broke my engagement when father died," she explained "l feit it wasn't fair to burden c man with c wife who had c family to take care of. Besides my mother, there were three younger chils dren, oil under fourteen, to sup- port. Dad was only % when nc died, and he hadn't been able to save much.

WiIlkie Claims Major
 Parties Ignore Negro
Republican Platform Recognizes Four Outstanding Evils; Democrats Offer Lip Service" to Vital Issue

Both Ehe Democratic and Repuh- llean platforms fal to face reals- tloally our Negro minority problem, which has assumed on importance nos eaualled since the period Inn. medlataiy following the Civil War" wendell Willkle charges In blintly AdvocMtlng equal rights for our is,0OO, 900 Negro eltlsenA in e signed article in the current issue of Col- Hers.
 'only those leaders of our two political parties who wrote and in- hueneed the party platforms ap. parently have failed to grasp" the importance of the Issue, Willkie declares, "Both of the ie44 political platforms, in their pledges to the NegFo and their programs for him, are traglcally inadequate" .
 HO condemns both parties Tor failing to offer any workable pros gram to outlaw poll taxes and lyneh- ing, and to stop discrimination against Negroes in our armed forces. The Democrats, he charges, merely speak in generalities and offer TIP service to the laws we already have"
 ''The Republicans recognize foui outstanding evils In the present sit. uatlon," Willkie says" and it must Do said that the Republican platform s distinctly better than the Democratic, These evils are listed aS the poll tax, lynchlng, and discrimination against the Negro in both the armed forces and in civil life.
 "Os the four evils, however, only the sorthrigh pledge of a permanent Fair Employment Practices Com' misslon can be said to meet realis' klcally the need for action which the Issues demand"
 Wlllkie charges that the Repub. llcans, in pledeing 6 constitutional amendment Co abolish poll taxes,
