Are You Losing
 Social Security?

(Continued from Page One) other reason, can't qualify immedi- ately for monthly benefits. they may be entitled to an immediate lump sum payment of six times the monthly benefit the worker would have been entitled to had he or she reached 65 at the time of his or her death.
 LINE OF SUCCESSION
 This is paid to the first in this line of succession: a widow or widower children or grandchildren, parent or parents or, if no such relative sur wives, to the person or persons paying the burial expense. It must be claimed within two years of death.
 In general, people who have worked in a factory, shop, mine, mill, store or office are covered by the law and have paid for insurance.
 Farm employees, Government em. plOyes, self-employed individuals and people who work in domestic service or for charitable organiza. tions are not cOvered-althOugh labor favors this extension, and legislation now in Congress would extend cOverage to them.
 HOW IT WORKS
 Before a worker or his or her sur vivors are entitled to monthly benefit payments, the law requires that he or she must have earned at least $50.0C per, quarter-year for a certain num- Der of quarter-years since 1037, the year the law went into effect, or since the time he became 21, if that is later than 1887. However, once worker has earned that sum for 40 quarters in covered employment, he is considered fully insured, and monthly benefits are always in order for him when he reaches 65, or for his survivors if they meet the other qualifications.
 DEPENDS ON EARNINGS
 The amount of monthly pay ments-or of a lump sum pay ment-depends on the workers average monthly earnings in cov- cred employment from the time he came under the law to the time he reaches 65 or dies.
 Thus, a worker who reaches 65 after five years of covered em- plOyment at an average monthly wage of $lOO would be entitled to payments of $26.25 month for the rest of his life. When his wife becomes 65, he gets an additional 50 per cent of that sum for her. Had his average been $50 a

JeaUisb Fund T OPS
Goal BY $4,000
At Gift Luncheon
By Frances Lide

Exceeding its goal by almost SIS
00G, the Women's Division Of the
United Jewish Appeal of Washing
ton raised approximately s115 900
for overseas relief and refugee aid
at dramatic $780, minimum gift
luncheon held yesterday at the May
flower Hotel.
More than TOO women who at
tended pledged contributions rang
ing from the minimum $100 to
$4,000, given by an anonymous
donor. The local women's group
had set $100,000 as its goal in the
Washington drive Tor $1,000, 900.
i The pledges followed a moving
address by Mrs. David NJ. Levy,
national chairman of the Women's S
division, who recently returned from
a two-month trip to Europe where
she made special investigations of
conditions under which displaced
persons are living. The speaker, who
is the daughter OF the late Julius
Rosenwald, visited Germany, Po-
land, Czechoslovakia, France, Bel
GUM, Holland and Palestine.
| Mrs. Levy told her audience that
lii they fully understood conditions
facing Jews in Europe today you
would give everything you have as
a great protest"
DAY after day I walked with
misery" she said, until I thought
my heart would break. Europe today
is a graveyard for the Jews. Prac-
tically no family is intact. For two
years these people have hoped and
hoped anew and looked into faces
where hope has been so long de-
ferred that it has turned into a
quiet desperation"
The Jews of Europe don't want
charity, she added, but tools put
into their hands. "And the chill
dren," she said, want books, paper
and pencils, because they have had
no education"
The speaker declared that one of
the most pitiful conditions she had
observed was the terrible apathy"
among the 1900 children housed in
q vast barracks near Munich.
"They have enough clothing and
enough food" she said, "but they
have nothing else. There is no
color. no joy in their lives. And
they are SO painfully docile. They
have forgotten how to smile and
how to be mischievous and gay"
These children" she added, "are
ours-if for no other reason than
that they have no one else to
turn to-"
Mrs. Edward Cafritz, chairman of
the Washington womens division,
presided at the luncheon and point
ed out that the overall national goal
in the United Jewish appeal is
$170,ooo,0oo this year.
The speaker was introduced by
Edmund I. Kaufman, national
chairman of special gifts, and dona-
tions were announceda By Mrs.
Charles Goldsmith, honorary chair
man of the Washington drive.
Guests at the head table included
Mrs. Felix Frankfurter, wife of the
associate justice of the Supreme
Court and Miss Stella Frankfurter,

tomato and Potato Blight
Strikes WASHINGTON Area

Late blight which destroys toma-

area gardens, the Plant Disease
Survey of the Agriculture Depart
ments at Beltsville, Md, reported
today. Home gardeners were ad:
vised to begin spraying.
The blight was first noticed this
week at the Bethesda community
gardens. 1t causes black, water
soaked areas on leaves, stem and
fruit and is readily identifable.
The department recommends the
use OF fixed copper compound or
dithane or parzate. These products,
usually sold under trade names, can
be purchased at drug and garden
supply houses Bordeaux, which has
long been used, is not recommended
because it will injure the foliage
somewhat, but if the others are not
available it is better than not spray
ing the plants
Plants should be sprayed at least
once week, according to Wilbur
Youngman, garden editor of The
