TENTH ANNIVERSARY
YESTERDAY, JUNE 20, 1855, was

YESTERDAY, JUNE 90, 1855, was a most significant
day. It was the tenth anniversary of the United Nations. The
delegates, many Of them Signatories Of the charter, were on
hand, and President Eisenhower, whose calendar showed a
fishing trip to Maine for that day, had significantly cancelled
it, to be in San Francisco, where, according to the New
York Times, his fishing will be in deeper waters"
AFTER 10 YEARS certain observations can be made.
First, the United Nations has fallen far short of the dreams
which many Of the ~starry-eyed ideaists entertained. The
years have proved that the United Nations could not settle
differences with a stroke Of the pen. Secondly, the United
Nations almost proved powerless to stop aggression because
those nations which swear by the sword have not changed
their thinking, or their way Of life.
But despite the fact that the United Nations is disap-
pointing to many, it is far and away the most effective force
in the world today which deters men and nations from fLaunt-
ing their power in the face of everyone else. It is a forum
from which the world may hear allimportant debates and
Judge for itself, and this is shown by the very way in which
the dictatorship nations seek to win, and retain favorable
impressions from all the rest Of the world
THEN, TOO, THE United Nations, through its several
branches is reaching out to help the social, economic and
health needs Of people everywhere, especially in under
developed areas. This, plus Point ", which is in operation
in many places, is combating the forces Of dissent and de-
preston as little else can.
THE TENTH anniversary Of the founding Of the United
Nations is indeed day to observe, and deserved, and got full
recognition of what it holds by the presence of the President
of the United States, speaking for and on behalf of the people
of the United States. His presence there Signified further
the constant desire for peace which has characterized all of
Americas actions, and the faith Of our people in the United
Nations as an instrument for creating and maintaining that
peace.

held for a month in which neither
$50 in wages was earned nor sub
stantial self-emplOyment services
were rendered in a trade or busi-
ness.
Because of this new provision in
the law, the local manager pointed
out, a beneficiary may work all
year for 500 a month and still re-
ceive all his benefit payments. II
he works throughout the year for
$110 a month, he will lose two
months payments. Under the for
mer rules, he could have received
no benefit payments in either OF
these situations if he was working
for wages. The new law gives wage
earners the advantage Of the annual
rather than the monthly test. II
also helps the self-emplOyed by
raising the limitation from 5000 tC
$1,000.
The new provision has particular
advantages for beneficiaries who
have seasonal employment OppOr-
tunities. Previously they lost bene-
fit payments for any month in
which their earnings exceeded S75
Now, high monthly earnings in a
seasonal industry will require no
suspension of payments unless the
yearly total exceeds $1,000. Bene-
ficiaries should be aware, however,
that earnings in excess of $1,000
may cause suspension of benefit
payments at the rate of one months s
benefit for each $50 Tor part of that
amOunD over $1,000. A beneficiary
who has earned $500 a month for
four months, for example, will lose
no benefits. However, if he works
an additional month and earns $500,
his benefits will be withheld for
four month";
Benefits will not be suspended
for any month after a person at
tains age q, regardless of the
amount of earnings, MilbOueT ex-
plained. In the year the beneficiary
reaches age q, however, benefit
checks for months prior to his
birthday may be withheld if the
annual earnings Gncluding earn
ings after age 72) are over $12OO
Beneficiaries are expected to no.
tify the Social Security Admins
tratiOn, on a form which has been
provided, if they believe their
earnings in 1856 will exceed $1,000
Payments will then be stopped
while they are working. At the end
of the year, an adjustment will be
made if, based on the annual earn
ings and the number of months
worked, an incorrect number OF
payments have been withheld.
