Greater Protection
Under S. s.
(cOntinueo lrOm flrst paFs)

Another important aspect of the
1852 amendments provides social
security coverage for veterans
who served in the armed forces Of
the United States since the end of
World War II. This is especially
important to the families of men
and women who died in Korea. Mr..
Milbouer pointed out. World War
II veterans had already been given
social security coverage as a re-
suit of the social security amend
ments of 1850. The amendments of
1852 extend the same protection
to those in the service after July
"a, 1857. For each month of serv-
ice after July "a, 1857, and before
January 1854, the serviceman now
receives a social security wage
credit of $3.50 a month, Just as if
he worked in a job covered by So
cial security and earned monthly
wages of $160.
These social security credits
will count towards old-age retire
ment payments for himself and his
family at. age 65, and survivors
benefits for his family or depend
ent in case of his death. AS in the
case of World War II social securi-
ty wage credits, however, the
credits cannot be counted toward
these social security benefits if
other benefits based on the same
period of military service are pay
able by the Army, Navy, civil serv-
ice, or other Federal retirement
systems. Payments made by the
Veterans Administration have no
effect on the social security wage
credits.
Dependents of serviceman
who died after July 1947 should
get in touch with their local social
security office for more informa-
tiOn on survivors benefits, Mr..
MilbOuer stated.
In Wilmington, the office of the
Social Security Administration is
in the Old Customhouse Building
9Th and King Streets.
In Milford, the social security
representative is in the City Office
Building the End and 4th Wednes-
day of each month, at $3.50 a. m.

school driver education offers one
of the major hopes for greater
traffic safety" said Mr.. Hufstader.
Development of skill and proper
attitudes in youngsters when they
first take the wheel is imperative
if we are to have nation of COM
petent drivers and reduce the ap-
palling toll Of accidents involving
those in the Is to "a year age
group.
Last year, one out Of five per-
sons killed on the highway was in
this age group. In addition to the
1900 killed, 100000 we're injured,
according to National Safety Coun-
Gil figures. State studies indicate
that driver education cuts the ac-
cident rate of trained drivers in
half and reduces fatalities even
more.
"It is most encouraging to note
the steady growth of this program
as revealed by the Association of
Casualty and Surety Companies in
their annual High School Driver
Education Award Program. Last
year, nearly 335 thousand students
were enrolled in both classroom
and practice driving courses in
the high schools. However, a much
bigger job needs to be done since
only / out of every 4 eligible high
school students is receiving the
/ complete course in driver educa-
ton,
Because Of these facts, the In
ter Industry Highway Safety Com
mittee will continue the support
of driver education as one of its
major detectives. While providing
training cars is only one of the
many safety programs being con-
Quoted by dealers, it is perhaps
the most significant. 1t has over
come one of the major problems
faced by the schools in seeking tC
supplement classroom instruction
with practical behind-the-wheeI
training"
Mr.. Hufstader also announced
that the Committee, in cooperation
with the National Automobile
Dealers Association, has created
a new highway safety award for
presentation to dealers who pro-
vide cars to high schools for be-
hind-the-wheel trainin g. First
awards will be made this fall al
dealer conventions and civic meet
ings throughout the country.

Truman Rejects
Meeting with Ike
And Macarthur

WASHINGTON, (R - Senator
Hunt D-WyO proposed an i'm
mediate extraordinary session of
the Senate Armed Services Com
mitee Friday to look into Gen.
Douglas MacArthur's views on
ending the Korean war.
President Truman, with some
barbed remarks about both Mac
Arthur and President-eleet Essen
hover, rejected a senator's sug-
gestion Thursday that he call the
two men to the White House to
discuss Korea.
Truman said, among other
things, he doubts Macarthur has
hit upon any new way to peace,
and that he still thinks Eisen-
hoWer's campaign announcement
that he would 60 to the Korean
war zone was demagoguery.
Truman's words drew some
COP cries of arrogant" and
''slanderous" on Capitol Hill.
Hunt, taking no part in that row,
told reporter:
II would like to see Sen. Rus
sell call either or both the gen.
erals to Capitol Hill to brief the
Armed Services Committee.
Hunt, a member of Russell's
committee, said he thought Con-
gress. should be Informed and
consulted" at once if there is any
new plan to end the war.
Eisenhower, now enroute back
from Korea, has disclosed he in

Final witness for the picketing
AFL longshoremen's union was
