American usage until recently. MY
own opinion, however, is that HAIR
uss has not been in widespread use
for long time, especially during
the many years in which I have
been observing and reporting the
speech habits of Americans.
The general disinclination to use
the HAR-uss pronunciation is be-
cause it sounds almost exactly like
the name Harris. On the other
hand, huh-RASS, with a good solid
accent on the second syllable, re-
|sembles no other word, and has a
lot of which the advertising inen
call punch"
HAR-uss has a mild, easy going
sound. while huh-RASS suggests
action, violence, irritation.
Moreover, huh-RASS follows 9
familiar pattern in which most two.
syllable English verbs receive the
accent on the second syllable; there
are thousands, like debase, accept
perform, invest, require, depart
Ietc.
So again we have another case
Iof the average dictionary's laggine
behind the procession. The pro-
Inunciation huh-RASS Is here tl
lstay. It unquestionably is good
usage, and I recommend 1t as pre-
lvailing over W helmingly in the
iUnitel States.

To Mr.. Masters, the bidding made
1t most likely that his partners

three-spade bid, Mr.. Champion was
encouraged to show his ace of clubs

little enough in high cards for his
previous three-heart bid. The four

Just how far the Youngdahl
name has penetrated into the con-
seriousness of the world audience
at large is hard to say, but each
member of the present generation
is a solid citizen; each has fol-
lowed a different path and each
has been eminently successful in
his or her chosen career.
The Youngdahl family story is
the story of two first-class, God
fearing adults who raised eight
children by a combination of love
and logic, with mutual respect a
key ingredient. Although John
and Elizabeth Youngdahl were nor
ministers. they were devout Swe-
dish immigrants who read the
Bible lot, were definitely opposed
to sin and believed that all of their
life was a stewardship. Each had
been married previously, each had
been widowed, and each had two
children by the earlier marriage.
John Youngdahl, who for years
had to scratch hard and sweat long
al a variety of jobs, was first a
commercial fisherman on Lake Su-
perior, finally successful grocer
on Minneapolis south side, where
he and his family operated under

Your Social Security Status

Some very important changes
We're made in 1850 in the Fed
eral old-age and Survivors insur-
ance program of the Social Sc
curity Act. 1t is very likely that
they will affect you, since the
program now covers 3 out of ev-
cry workers and their families,
A national contributory social
insurance system to protect work
ers and their families against sud-
den loss of income did not exist
in the United States until 1885,
soon after our most serious de-
preston, when the Social Security
Act established a program of in
surance protection against unem-
ployment and old age. Unemploy-
ment insurance is a system of
separate State-Federal programs;
old-age and survivors insurance is
a Federal Government program
operated through the Federal Sc
curity Agency and the Treasury
Department.
The 1850 amendments strength
ened the Federal old-age and sur
vivors insurance program in three
ways. First, about 100000 more
workers were covered by the pro-
gram, including many persons
who work for themselves. This
brings the total number of work
ers covered to about 40, 900, 900.
Household and farm workers who
are regularly employed and Fed
eral workers who do not come
under a civil service retirement
program are among the new
& 70 ps covered automatically.
Some groups are not covered auto
matically but may be covered by
special agreements. These include
persons who work for State and
local governments if they are not
under retirement systems and en-
ployees of non-profit organiza-
tions, such as private. hospitals,
welfare agencies, religious socie-

| The second important improve
ment is the increase in benefits
payable to all eligible persons.
About 3 million persons already
receiving benefits under the old
law had their benefits raised to
the higher amounts provided by
the new law. For example, a re-
tired worker and his wife who pre-
yiously received S45 are now re-
ceiving monthly benefits of SS1.
The third group of important
changes provides for payment of
benefits in many cases where no
benefits were payable under t h e
old law. Benefits are now avail
able to many older persons who
could not receive payments under
the old law. Benefits may also be
paid to dependent husbands and
dependent widowers; and to chill
dren of insured women in many
cases where the payments could
not be made before. Lump sum
death payments are made in cases
where the insured worker dies
even though immediate monthly
payments are also made. Persons
receiving benefits may earn as
much as $50 a month in covered
employment and continue to re-
ceive benefits previously benefits
