MORE WRANGELL CHILDREN TO RECEIVE POLIO VACCINE

With vaccine provided by the Alaska Department of Health. the local health officer, Dr. John o. Bangeman, is laying plans to inn munize children from to g years, inclusive. He said 56 of WmngeIls moppets have already received two injections of Salk vaccine and are excluded from the present pro- gram.
 A standard permission form will be sent, through the school to the parents of the children to be i'm munized. If the parents desire vac clnatlon they are to fill out the card completely, sign it and return It to the school. Dr. Bangeman said that no vaccination will be given 10 any child without signed ner- mission from one parent. Failure to return the card eliminates the child from this valuable prosram ne said. Parents are urged to re- eurn the cards promptly.

New ''Upside-DOwn"
Map Makes Driving
To Florida Easier

Geography takes a back seat
but the man at the wheel benefits
from a new "upside-dOWn' ESQ
road map coming out next week.
There's a practical reason for
the new-type map, unique among
the millions which ESQ distributes
free each year.
Many Of the estimated three mil
lion motorists who annually drive
south to Florida have found 1t
helps to turn their standard maps
upside down. That way, it's easier
to know whether to make right or
left turns, and to locate ones self
in relation to other highways and
nearby cities and towns.
But it's harder, without practice
reading upside down to decipher
the names Of places and route
numbers.
This was one time when dO-it-
yourself methods seemed second
best-so ESQ Touring Service has
prepared the new kind of map
which at first inspection, seems to
locate New York south of Florida
While the states are in reverse
or upside-down order, the names
cities and towns and route numbers
are right side up.
The New York-to Florida mar
was made especially for persons
driving south along the Atlantic
seabOard. Driving north over the
same route, a conventional maj
has the same advantages.
The "up-side-down" map is a.
vailable at Esso dealer stations il
East Coast states from the New
York City area south through Soutl
Caroline. It may be obtained alsC
at the ESQ Touring Service Office
in New York city, located in the
ESQ Building in Rockefeller Cen
ter, and at the Office in Washington
located in the Capitol ESQ Servi
center on Constitution Avenue.
The map shows, too, the prin
cipal connecting routes, and mile
ages along through routes. On tn
reverse side, there is a list Of places
of historic, cultural and scenic in
terest which motorists might lik
to visit along the way. Each i
described briefly-with VISITING
hours and admission fees, wher
fees are charged.

ployed, be sure to report your COW
cred net earnings up to $4,000 when
you file your Federal income tax
report for 1855.
Employed persons earning more
than $4,000 per year will pay up to
S12 more per year social security
tax contribution. Their employers
will match this increased tax con-
tributiOn. The maximum tax con-
tributiOns for an employee will
thereby be increased from $72 to
S84 per year. A self-emplOyed per-
son with net earnings more than
.S3, 500 per year will pay up to $18
more per year social security tax.
The maximum tax contribution for
a self-employed person will be in
creased from $108 to S126 per year.
What does this mean to the work
er paying this increased contribu-
ton: Milbouer explained that it
means increased protection to him
and to his family. A worker at age
65 who can qualify for Dement'S
based on average monthly earnings
of $3.50 which is $4,000 per year, IN
stead Of $500 a month or $4,000 a
year, will receive $40 a month more
in benefit payments. This worker
and his 65 year old wife will re-
ceive s162.80 a month instead OF
$1478O.
! The qualified survivors OF a per-
son who had average monthly earn
lings of $3.50 will also receive in
creased benefit payments. For ex-
ample the monthly benefit payments
to the IS year old widow of such 9
worker would be $S1.4O instead Of
the $3.50 it would have been il
only average monthly earnings III
Ito 5000 counted toward social Sc
curity. A widow and two children
under 18 years of age would re
ceive 5000 a month.
The local manager added that 4
IA worker first becomes entitled tt
benefits in 1856 or dies in that year

$3.50, and has acquired at least SD

GLACIER MOVES AHEAD

COLUMBUS, Ohio - (P) - The
effects OF the great glacial ages
were reviewed when scientists re-
ported finding a glacier still adj
vancing or at least holding its
own, unlike most of the worlds
great ice masses.
The Ohio State University team
said solid ice on the glacier NOV
ed about half an inch per day at
the surface. The team reported
after an expedition which studied
part of the great Greenland ice
cap. "A final report is due later.
DR.. Richard p. Goldthwait, OSU
geologist, who led the team, said
advance Of the ice edge is the re-
suit Of increased snowfall due to
warmer weather which results
from encroachment Of the sea in
nearby areas.
The group camped about 40
miles north of Thule Air Force
Base in northwest Greenland,
about 1000 miles from the North
Pole. The study was part Of a
program sponsored by the snow,

Praise For Methods

growers that out-of-pocket costs
were not the total cost in raising a
flock. Even in the most efficient
hocks, growers should figure scents
pound for labor costs, in addition
to the cash costs, he said.
When feed costs are going up and
broiler prices are coming down, it
pays to sell brOilers at a younger
age, he said. But if feed costs are
dropping and the brOiler market is
good, it's. better to hold the flock to
an older marketing age.
Sometimes, Smith said, it is more
profitable over the whole year to
sell birds before they reach most
profitable size and age in each
flock. If you're operating the br0il-
er house continuously throughout
the year, you can sell more birds
that way. The income from each
flock may be less but the total for
the year will be greater because
you have raised more broilers.
Smith pointed out that fiOcks
which cost a lot to produce should
be sold at lower weights than
fiocks which are produced cheaply.
For instance, with feed at $50 a
ton, it is best to sell a poor flock
at 8 pounds weight when broilers
are bringing 20 cents. But it may
pay you to keep a good flock until
the birds reach 4-pOUnd weight.
