Important Facts On
Social Security

Eighty per cent of all workers in
the United States are engaged in
employment covered by social Sc
curity and are building an insured
status under the oId-age and surviv-
ors insurance program, w. S. King,
manager of the Hagerstown social
security office, announced today.
About twenty-five million workers
have been in jobs under social Sc
curity long enough to be assured of
retirement benefits for themselves at
IS and survivor benefits for their
families. Four out of every five
mothers and children are protected
under the program in the event of
the death of the family breadwin-
ner, declared King.
For the workers over IS who retire
and for the survivors of workers who
die at any age, the old-age and sur
vlvors insurance program provides
substantial monthly benefits. In
those cases where benefits may be
based on the average earnings since
1850, the average monthly payment
for retired worker without depend
ents is about sos; for an aged couple,
somewhat more than $500; and for
widow with two children, about
$50, according to King
Since these benefit payments pro-
vide such important income for the
retired worker and his family and
for his survivors in case of his death,
each worker, says King, owes it to
himself and to his family to know
just what his status is in this insur-
ance program; to know what, if any,
protection he is providing for himself
and for his family through old-age
and survivors insurance. He can
best get this information, concluded
King, by discussing his own personal
case at the social security office To-
Gated at "A West Washington Street.

IT'S A FACT: COLD MILK
OFTEN MEANS COLD CASH

Cold milk can mean cold cash for
Maryland dairy farmers, according
to Harold Newlander, University of
Maryland Dairy Inspection Service.
He explains it this way: when
warm milk is shipped to the dairy
plant, it churns. Particles of butter
fat cling together and rise rapidly
to the surface, preventing the col
lection of an accurate sample for
butterfat test purposes.
He cites a recent survey showing
that 1872 percent of the producers
for a certain dairy were shipping
milk at temperatures ranging from
81 to 80 degrees F. at the time it ar
rived at the plant. More than half
of this warm milk arrived in a
churned condition.
Here are his recommendations for
reducing the possibility of having
milk rejected at the dairy plant be-
cause of high temperatures and
churning:
y Avoid mixing warm milk with
cold.
2)Avoid excessive agitation in the
process of milking and cooling.
81 Cool milk to temperatures be-
low so degrees F. before shipping,
and keep the milk cool during transit
by the use of refrigerated and in
sulated trucks.
~ Fill milk cans to the base of the
neck to keep milk from excessive
splashing on the way to the dairy.

There is nothing definite to report
about the makeup of the 1853 Hag-
erstown Braves Club. AS matter
of fact, things were further jumbled
when Rufus Edwards, general man.
aged of the club, got word that Ford
Jordan, last years third baseman,
would not go to Waycross for spring
training, as he has not yet fully re-
covered from an injury received
playing basketball during the winter.
While Manager Dorman is giving
everyone on the squad a chance to
show what they have got, it looks to
me, as far as the infeld is concerned,
that the only sure bet at the present
time is Jimmy linn at second.
From what l hear, Ray Harbaugh
is showing much improvement at
first base, but l doubt very much if
he is ready for the fast competition
that the club is going to get this
year in the Piedmont League.
1t will probably be a week Or
more before the team really starts
to take shape, as by that time some
of the Milwaukee Braves farm clubs
in higher categories will be cutting
down. thus giving Dorman an OPP
portunity to select some of the boys
that don't make it in higher com
pany.

Easter Is Theme
of Kiwanis Meeting

DIR. Bruce Mcdonald, Presby-
terrain Minister, Is Guest
Speaker.
Speaking at the regular weekly
luncheon meeting of the Kiwanis
Club, held at the Hotel Alexander
on Thursday, Dr. Bruce H. McDon-
aid, pastor of the Westminster Pres
byterian Church in Baltimore, told
his audience that: ''The spiritually
illiterate are one of the greatest
tragedies of our time"
The meeting was presided over by
president Oscar Hartsock, and the
program was arranged by the Sick
ness Committee, of which Ernest ].
Hixon is chairman. The speaker was
introduced by Captain Ernest J.
Wixon.
DR.. Mcdonald chose as his sub
ject, Il Live In A Graveyard" based
on the fact that his church, of which
he has been pastor since 1928, was
built in 1850 in the graveyard in
which the beloved Edgar Allen Poe
was buried His address conferred
around Easter, but during his talk
he also recalled many interesting,
and sometimes amusing, incidents
connected with the life of the great
poet.
Reminding his audience Of spiritual
values, he related that in his century
old church there are members of his
congregation who can neither read
nor write and it was then that ne
made the arresting statement that
it was not the illiterate, in the or
binary sense Of the word, but the
spiritual illiterate, who are one of
the greatest tragedies of our time.
In conclusion, DR.. Mcdonald stat
ed that: "At this Easter time we
should all be asking ourselves, what
this thing of the Spirit really is"

Food Prices Are Expected
To Remain Same In 1853

Homemakers' food costs are likely
to remain the same for 1858, de-
spite the fact that farm prices drop
ped in 1852. That, according to U.
S. Department of Agriculture econ
omists, is because the drop in farm
prices was Offset by increased costs
of marketing. Higher wages for
food marketing employees, higher
transportation costs, and increased
rents are all responsible for the in
creased marketing costs.
