SOCIAL SECURITY
QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS
By DAVID M. SWIFT

My husband, who died last
March, was farmer; but for 8
years before his death he worked
for a few days every month in a
mill earning wages of $40 q
month He and l were the same
age, So, our children are grown.
One person told me that I could
draw benefits, but another one
said 1 could not, because I own
the farm. What is right?
The fact that you own property
has nothing to do with your right
to insurance payments. 1t appears
that your husband was fully in
sured under the Old-Age and Sur
vivors Insurance system, but since
you have no children under 10
you will not be eligible for month
ly benefits until you reach the
age of IS You may be eligible for
a lump sum death payment at
this time, and you should file
your claim. If it is approved, you
will receive one lump sum pay
ment.. Then after you reach 65,
if you are still unmarried, you
can file another claim and your
monthly benefits will begin

Under the impression the man
was patient, DR.. Levy called out:
Come on in and watch the tele-

care of you"
It was then, the doctor said
that his patient" produced gun
and two friends, also with guns.
When the three men left. they
took with them jewelry, cash

mated by DR.. Levy to be worth be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000.

Music
Londoners Play
Charming Quartet
By Scot McEwen
By Elena de Soyn

A charming string quartet, COM
posed by a Scottish master. John
Blackwood McEwen, was given a
hearing by the famed London
String Quartet in the Library OF
Congress last night. The artists
John Pennington and Laurent
Halleux, violins; Edgar Acosta
viola, and Warwick Evans, cello
were presented by the Elizabeth
Sprague Coolidge Foundation.
In this era when novelties often
sound angry and harsh, music
that is melodious and gay offers
a relief. McEwen's quartet, dedi-
Gated to the group and composed
some 81 years ago, is happy COM

the imaginative. It's challenging
beginning compelled attention i'm
mediately, as did the folk-like
strains that run through the work
The rather odd combination OF
Spanish color with the composers
own fancy in the last movement
was particularly catchy. For its
melting and ingratiating quality
this quartet could take a place
beside Dvorak's American Quar-
tet" in popular appeal any time
were it better known.
The Londoners draw beautiful,

ments. There is hardly group
which can equal them in individ-

links in any ensemble are easily

violin or the viola, or both. Not
so with this organization. Mr.
Halleux, formerly with the Pro.
Arte Quartet, is a fine match fo]
Mr.. Pennington. as are his othel
partners.
The buoyant and romanti,
