Govt Seeking
beneficiiariies
For S. Security

A search for Social Security ben
eficiaries is going on continually
and James G.. Browne. manager
of the Juneau field office, is in
Seward now TO make arrangements
for paying number of possible
claims.
Few people realize, Brown said
that there is an insurance program
for survivors if the worker dies
without collecting his pension.
a great many people are not
aware that when they pay social
security taxes. they are not only
paying for old age but also for
survivors protection To be on the
safe side, if you have not told your
wife about Social Security, do SO.
Tell her where you keep your card
and that if anything should happen
to you she should take your card
or write 10 the Juneau office of the
federal Social Security administra-
ton and apply for the benefits to
which she may be entitled. Only
by doing this can you be sure that
this insurance, which you have
earned for your family, will be
paid to them promptly. AS in
other types OF insurance, the ap-
phcation for payment must be
made by the beneficiary, Browne
said.
Those Who Benefit
Monthly benefits are payable to
the following survivors of deceased
workers.:
l. Children receive m n h y
payments until they are 10.
2 Widow, regardless of age,
caring for child entitled to bene-
fits, provided she does not re-
marry. She receives monthly pay
ments until her youngest child is
10. The payments stop then, but
resume again when the widow is
IS and continue until her death.
3. Widow without children un-
der her care receives monthly pay
ments when she reaches the age OF
IS, if she has not remarked.
4. Dependent parents receive
monthly benefits when they reach
Is, provided the worker left neither
widow nor child under Is.
In addition to these monthly
benefits, lump-sum death benefits
are payable if the deceased worker
leaves no one Immediately entitled
to monthly benefit payments. such
as widow, child, grandchild or par
ents If none of these relatives are
living, a lump-sum death payment
is made to the relative or other
person who paid the funeral ex-
penses.
For further information, Browne
stated you should write to or call
at the Social Security field office,

, exports large tonnages of butter
and bacon to England. Quite as
peculiar, the yield of potatoes
above the Arctic Circle is 40 per-
cent greater than in the south of
Sweden; strawberries, tn GU g h
smaller, are much sweeter. These
phenomena stem from the fact
that plant activity is vastly ac-
tolerated by an Arctic sun that
shines almost "a hours a daysin
summer.
The genius of SWeden's plant
breeders, plus careful tillage, has
increased the yield of wheat and
other cereal crops by 60 percent
since the turn of the century.
Swedish farmers average 30 BUSH
els of winter wheat per acre =
nearly twice the average for the
United States and Canada.
Sweden provides all the sugar
she can use (from sugar beets).
She boasts more than one fruit
tree per person, a higher milk
consumption than the United
States, ana great crops of rye,
barley, potatoes and oats. Corn
cannot be grown economically in
her northern ATTITUDES; but cattle
are fattened on awdust-trans-
muted by Swedish chemists into
exceptionally good fodder.
Oldest Parliament in Europe
Sweden's Riksdag, or represent
etive parliament, is the oldest in
Europe, tracing back to 1885. By
the 18th century Swedish war
riors had occupied and ruled Es-
tonia, Finland, half of Latvia,
two north German provinces, GEN.

where Leningrad now stands. I'm

Sweden lost her conquests and
retired more than 100 years ago
to neutrality and one of the high
est standards of living in the
world. What the Germans would
have DONE" one Swede remarked
to me, "if they had had good
sense"
Sweden is buffer state against
Communism and, what is more,
proposes to maintain her armed
forces with her own funds instead
of those of the American taXpay-
er. Besides adding 1000 fighting
planes to her air force since the
war (many housed in underground
hangars) Sweden has an exceed
ingly tough and well-equipped ar
my. This does not mean that Rus
STA, if it chose to pay a terrific toll,
could not conquer Sweden. But it
is significant that Hitler, with far
greater sea and air power than
Russia's, twice planned - and
twice recoiled from-the task.

most intelligent has roughly
the same symbolic authority as the
King of England. In other words,
no authority at all, except in the
immense respect in which even the
most ardent socialists hold his
opinions. During World War II,
most observers agree, his guidance
(the King was consulted daily by
the late Prime Minister Per Albin
Hansson) enabled Sweden to fore
stall German invasion with one
hand and maintain Allied friend
ship with the other.
King Gustav is simple and I'M
pretentious. He chats easily in
four languages, chain-smokes Gig
arettes and still nimbly hunts the
Swedish elk or moose. One sum-
mer at Saro saw the King-then
9S-dive from a dock and swim
seward like a porpoise.
The Kings individuality has a
deeply human ring. Once when a
visiting potentate expressed as
constituent that Gustav had no
bodyguards, the Kings reply be-
came a Swedish epigram: You
