Social Security
For Self-Employed

AS part of their insurance pro
lection, at least 3 million Self-em
ployed persons soon will be able
to point with confidence to Fed
eral old-age and survivors insur
ance.
This statement was made today
by Wayne w. Putnam, manager of
the Toledo social security office
Mr.. Putnam said that these indiv-
iduals have full credit for their
self-employment earnings a fte r
1850 and SO are fully insured for
future payments as soon as they
file their final 1852 income tax
returns. To stay insured, they
must continue to report theil
earnings and pay the social Sc
curity tax once every year.
Among beneficiaries of social
security now coming on the rolls
the average retirement payment to
man without dependents is $65
a month; for an aged couple, the
average is about $103 a month
and to a widow with two children,
in the neighborhood of $13O a
month.
Mr.. Putnam urged all self-em-
ployed to keep accurate records
and to be sure that the correct So
cial security number and occupa-
ton are shown on the tax return
and attached Schedule Ca as sub.
mitted. This Schedule Ca should
returns showing net profit from
self-employment of at least $40C
in year.
He also pointed out that since
social security credits are based
on accurate tax returns, it is
greatly to the self-employed per
sons own interest that the return
be entirely correct.

Peace BidNo. 9

The United States last week re-
jected what Score-keepers said was
the ninth Soviet bid since 1948 for
a Big-Five peace conference. The
request for parley came from
Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov in
answer to plea" from one of the
well disciplined international
Communist peace rallies.
Molotov said there was no rea-
son why all East West problems
could not be solved amicably If
only America, Britain and France
would sit down with Russia and
China (Red China, naturally and
talk it over. The Molotov invita-
ton was thought to be the open
ing move in an important phase Of
the Soviet peace offensive. But
the idea of a Big Five conference
was rejected without ceremony by
Secretary Of State Dulles. He told
reporters, "I have seen the account
only in newspaper headlines, and
I don't care to respond to that
type Of communication"
Mr.. Dulles had several good rea-

Plan No. 6

Under law passed in 1949 and
renewed after a hectic go-round
on Capitol Hill early this year, the
President has the right to re-
organize executive agencies within
certain limits. He must, first of
all, let Congress know what he
intends to do. And second, he
must give Congress a chance to
say no.
Unless Congress says no between
now and June 20, Reorganization
Plan No. 6 Of 1858" will go into
effect on that day. It will be prob
ably the most thorough shaking
up the Pentagon has had since
'unif1cation" was ordered nearly
six years ago. The effect will be
to concentrate in the hands of the
Secretary Of Defense more direct
authority over the military than
ever before.

was telegraphed to some extent
last Monday when Deputy Defense

ONE HUNDRED DAYS, almost
" to the minute, after he took
Office, President Eisenhower last
week announced his broad plans
for bringing economy to the
National Government.
Though, for convenience's sake,
1t was termed a budget statement,
the information Gen. Eisenhower
gave out bore little resemblance to
what Is commonly considered a
budget. There were no long, de-
tailed columns Of figures, no pin
pointing of millions of dollars here
and billions of dollars there. It
was, rather, a resume Of what the
President hopes to do in the COM
ing fiscal year (starting July y
to keep the military-economic
health of the Nation up to snuff.
It was clear from the Presidents
message that there would be no
miracles wrought by the new Re-
publican administration. There
will still be a deficit and-con-
versely-there will not be a bal
anced budget. There will still be
heavy spending, but not so heavy
as the Democrats had projected.
The whole thing was a matter
Of balance, the President said-a
matter of the posture Of defense"

sons for the rebuff. First, an
agreement by the Big Five not to
pick on each other would not pre-
vent Russia or China from over
throwing their small neighbors by
phony Communist revolutions.
Second, the United Nations Char
ter already constitutes a peace
pact-which has been ignored by
the Communists. Third, the United
States does not recognize Com
munist China and would not care
to concede that she is a Big Five
nation.
It was doubtful, however, that
the last had been heard from the
Soviet suggestion. The proposal
had made good peace propaganda
in the past among the cold-war
neutrals, and it was reasonable to
expect the Russians to use it dur
ing their current maneuverings.

Security

The Republican election battle
cry Of Crime, Corruption and
Communism" was in effect an in
formal domestic platform. Gen.
eral Eisenhower promised to fight
a vigorous battle against all three.
Last week President Eisenhower
outlined part of his battle plans in
one Of the three areas: Commu-
nism-specifically, communism in
government.
His strategy was revealed to be
the same as that of President Tru-
man, but his tactics are different
The broad campaign will be
carried on by security boards and
the FBI. But the program will Diff
fer from President Truman's in
these ways:
. No distinction will be made be-
tween loyalty and security cases.
Under the Democrats, a person
found to be, say, confirmed blab-
bermouth would be fired as a Sc
curity risk, but without the stigma
of disloyalty to his country. The
Eisenhower order puts all cases
into one category-security.

Mild May Day

MAY DAY, all in all, turned out
1V1 to be run-of- f-the-mill affair.
In Communist countries the peace
full aspect was stressed. In non-
Communist countries there were a
few reports Of disturbances, but all
of them were junior grade. .
MoScow'S show was interesting
and different. It stressed two
things: Government by committee
is-as advertised - the present
formula for Kremlin rule, and the
peace offensive is still on.
Marshal Nikolai Bulganin, Deputy
Prime Minister and defense chief,
delivered an Observation-Disclosures
sort of speech: Hopeful of peace
but suspicious of the West. He
asked for Western deeds, not words.
The mere fact that he was chosen
to speak, however, was interpreted
as a move to show that Moscow'S
leaders were sticking by their new
credo that one-man rule is much
inferior to government by commit
tee. Premier Georgi Malenkov,
Interior Minister Lavrenti Beria
and the other Communist Party
presidium members stood by.
The Moscow parade, which used
to last four of five hours, ran just
under Is minutes, only a few min
Htes more than it took Washing
tons May Day safety parade to
pass The Stars front door. That
left more time for the people to
have a holiday-and drink cham
pagne in Red Square. It also helped
the new regime to break with the
past, when Stain kept the polit-
buro on the reviewing stand for
what must have seemed like an
eternity.
In Tokyo there was a post
parade scuffle between disappointed
college students, traditionally zeal
GUS on May Day, and the police.
After the. usual parade had gone
off peacefully, 10000 youths re-
fused to diSperse and clashed
sharply with 1,500 Tokyo police.
