BY Robert B. YOumanS
Manager of the GAINESVILLE
Social Security Office

In my last article | promised
| to discuss each of the many
groups of workers who will begin
earning social security protection
for themselves and their families
for the first time on January /,
1855. / saw that this would be
necessary after reading the new
law. The 1854 Amendment makes
special provisions for each group
in order to give the most old-age
and survivors benefits to each
individual.
There is nothing difficult about
those provisions. But since they
vary with each group. 1 feel that
it would be wise to set down the
main points of each in my series.
Today I'd like to tell you about
the largest newly covered group,
the self-employed farm operators.
Over three and a half million
farm operators will be covered
by social security after 1854 in
much the same way as millions
of self-employed urben business
men are now. In the farmers
case, however, there is a special
provision which ! would like to
explain.
Some self-employed farm oper-
ators have low incomes, and they
don't pay any income taxes on
their earnings. Because they pay
no income taxes, they have no
need to keep records of their
finances over the year. And since
the self-employed report their
earnings for social security pur-
poses right along with their in
come tax reports, this became a
big problem in extending cover
age to include the self-employed
farm operators. In fact it is one
of the reasons why social security
protection was not given to them
sooner.
/ am happy to say that the new
Amendment has solved this pro-
blem. For now there is a special
way for low income farm opera
tors to report their yearly earn
ings for social security purposes
in which record-keeping isn't
necessary. Here is the way it
works:
A self-employed farm operator
with a gross income of $1,000 or
less in a year who reports his in
come tax on a cash receipts and
disbursements basis may choose
one of these two methods of re-
porting his income for social sec
urlty purposes:
He may report either his actual
net earnings for the year or he
may report so per cent of his
gross income for that calendar
year. This simplified income re-
porting for social security pur-
poses will not apply to the farm
operator whose gross income is
more than $1,000 in a year. If
his earnings exceed $1,000 in a
year, the farm operator must fig
ure his actual net income. But

DON'T CALL 1s1L ES1-sg
Don't call me kid,
That is a young goat.
1t sure raises my lid
And causes my teeth to float,
So don't call your child kid
1t may be a little bewildering
But they are no kids,
They are your children.
To call your child a kid
Is really not proper,
You might as well turn around
And feed him out of a hopper
If pop and nom call me KID

It may sound silly
I'll call MON a Nanny"

If some of your guests will be
children, put all matches, sigar-
cite lighters and other danger
Gus objects safely out of their
reach.
AS long as your company stays,
keep these safety tips in mind:
If you're heating more rooms
than usual, don't try to force"
your furnace if it won't take the
added load. Call an experienced
repairman instead.
Keep portable heaters away
from combustibles, and also out
of peoples way.
Keep order in the kitchen. Sew
eral extra people all offering to
help can cause a traffic jam" in
which someone may lean too far
over a lighted burner, or tip over
a pot of scalding liquid.
If more electrical appliances
than usual are being used-space
heaters, for example-don't over
load circuits. Fifteen ampere rus
es are the safe size for most
household circuits, and if fuse
blows some appliances should be
switched to another outlet.
Guests have responsibilities,
too. If you are going to be a
guest instead of a host, see that
you and your entire family are
on your best fire-safety behav-
ior. 1t is also wise to be prepared
for an emergency. Just as you
always note the location of the
nearest fire escape in a hotel,
when you are an overnight guest
in someone's home figure out two
ways of reaching the ground from
the room in which you sleep.

Hawaiians Told
Ike Anxious That
Their Bill Pass

WASHINGTON, Up = President
Eisenhower told a group of Ha-
waiians today he is very anxious
that the Hawaiian statehood bill
be passed but that the matter is
in the hands of Congress.
A delegation of 10 legislators
and citizens of the islands and
their governor, Samuel Wilder
King, and their Voteless delegate
to Congress, Joseph Harrington,
called on the President at the
White House.
The President, Harrington said,
expressed the view that if the
Alaska and Hawaii statehood bills
could be considered separately in
Congress, it would produce the
results the HaWaiians seek.
Harrington said Eisenhower ex-
pressed no opinion as to the Al
aska legislation. which was added
to the Hawaii bill by the Senate.
At a conference with Earring
ton prior to the White House visit
members Of the visiting Hawaiian
delegation were advised of the
parliamentary situation facing the
bill in the House.
Harrington suggested that mem
bers Of the delegation call on
House members to encourage the
sending of the statehood bill to
conference
Harrington told the delegation
he had no doubt that the fight
for statehood is going to be won.

Once-a-Week
DC-6B Service
To Start June A

1t has been officially announ-
ced that effective June 4, Nome
will be served by the new DC-6B
equipment which Pan American
Anyways inaugurated in Alaska in
January Of this year.
At the same time the Nome
schedule will be changed from a
twice-weekly service to a once
per-week service. The service will
be on Friday only.
With this new service, Seattle
will be but 9 hours elapsed time
from Nome.
This new aircraft features a
pressurized cabin which permits
it to fly at attitudes of 10000 feet
and more. While at this altitude
the cabin pressure remains at
that Of 5000 feet. Thus, it is pos
sible to take advantage Of the
high winds prevalent at the high
attitudes and resulting reduction
in flight times.
The latest navigational aids are
standard equipment. Also featur-
ed on this new craft is the engine
analyzer, an instrument which
permits the Flight Engineer to
keep a constant check on more
than $500 engine parts at all
times. This instrument was devel-
oped by PAA engineers.

Realistically Reject
French Terms For
IndOchina Peace

GENEVA, R-The Communists
totally" rejected French terms
for an Indochinese armistice to-
day They countered with an
eight-point plan of their own.
The Communists agreed, how
ever, to cooperate in quick action
to remove the wounded from
fallen Diem Bien Phu.
Major points of the Communist
plan were:
Recognition of the Communist
regimes Of Vietminh, Laos and
Cambodia-the latter two labelled
by the French as phantom" gov
ernmentS.
Withdrawal of all foreign troops
from Indochina.
Free elections, conducted along
the lines already proposed by the
Communists for Germany and
Korea and rejected by the West
The Vietminh plan, which was
expected to be pushed by v. M.
Molotov and Chou En-Lai, was
certain to be rejected by the West
as unacceptable.
This and the French plan were
SO far apart there appeared at
first sight to be no basis for
bringing them together.
One provision of the Vietminh
proposal would include a declar-
alton of intent on the part Of the
Vietminh ITO study" the form of
association with France within
the French Union. A French
spokesman labeled this a phony
gesture aimed at winning French
public opinion.

BOSTON, R-Police through
out New England today were
looking for woman who was
accused by a Fairbanks couple Of
Fleeing them Of $4,000 on a hoax
that she could arrange for them
to adopt a set of twins.
The tale was told police last

vertisement in a Fairbanks news
paper several months ago that
they wished to adopt a child.
A woman answered the adver-
tisement, saying her sister in Bos-
ton was to give birth to a child
she wanted to place for adoption.
Later, she informed the Gron-
dins that her sister had given
birth to twin boys.
The couple flew to Boston with
the women and accompanied her
to hospital where the twins
were said to be.
At the hospital, Grondin said,
the women asked him to sit in
the lobby while she went inside.
A few minutes later she came
out and said that $500 more was
needed to complete adoption
plans.
Grondin said he gave her 5000
and promised to pay the rest
later. That was the last he ever
saw of the woman. He estimated
