Britons Wake Up With Severe Suez Hangover; Eden's Prestige Way Down

, LONDON, R-The British peo- pie woke up yesterday to a severe Suez hangover, with Prime Minis ter Eden's prestige at perhaps the lowest ebb since he took office 20 months ago.
 There was widespread feeling that the decision to pull out of Egypt without delay was a na- tional humiliation. Even some of Eden's last-ditch supporters were asking: How long can he hang on as Prime Minister?
 Conservative leaders in the House of Commons, forewarned of revolt in the party ranks, tried to drum up all possible support for motion of confidence in the government which will come to a vote Thursday night.
 The opposition Labor Party planned an all-out challenge, 
 probably with a motion seeking to censure the whole policy of intervention in the canal zone.
 Even worse than the political crisis, to most Britons, was looming economic emergency which threatened the stability of the pound and the national stand ard of living.
 Government experts figured the Suez attack by next April would have cost Britain between $330 and S420 million, including extra military spending, loss of Middle East oil and extra cost of ship ping around South Africa.
 Still to be Eeckoned were enor- mous future losses: dollars to buy Western Hemisphere oil, Britain's share of clearing the canal, gen. eral slump anticipated as result of the oil shortage, and damage to British prestige and business in the Middle East and Asia.

SOME FARMERS will be entitled to
start drawing retirement benefits under
the Federal Old Age and Survivors In
Surance program as early as April
/ of this year.
In the first place, you must fit the
definition of Self-employed farmer.
If you are actually operating farm
yourself or in a real operating partner
ship with someone else, then you are
definitely a self-employed farmer. If
you are simply renting your farm to
a tenant, you cannot qualify as self
employed farmer.
There are various kinds of rental
and hiring arrangements which are
borderline cases between being an act
ual farm operator and a landlord. If
you are not sure of your status, you
should consult with your local Social
Security official.
In the second place, you have to meet
certain requirements as to coverage.
A special provision of the law provides
that if you become IS before October,
1856, you can qualify for fully insured
status with only six quarters of cover
age, starting Jan. 1, 1855. If your 65th
birthday is between April 1 and Sept.
80, 1856, you would have to wait until
your 65th birthday to apply for bene-
fits, but if you are SIS before April l.,
you can apply on that date if you meet
cOverage requirements.
Why April 1?
But why April 1? Coverage in 1855
counts as four quarters. January
through March of 1856 counts as the
5th quarter, and starting with April
you are in the 9Th quarter The quarter
in which death or retirement occurs
may be included in the required six
quarters of coverage.
The minimum coverage requirement
for applying on April Cor later) is
that you have earned four quarters O.
coverage in 1855 and can establish
that you have actually realized $40I
net income Cor $500 gross income) il
1856 at the time you apply for bene
fits.
Suppose. for example, that you ha,
net farm income of $4,000 in 1855 an
sold $500 worth of last years GRO
before April l of this year. If yo
apply for benefits on April 1, you
average monthly wage will be ca
culated by dividing your earnings
1855 by Is (the number of month
in six quarterS) and benefits will
paid temporarily on that basis Use
table,.
Temporary Rate
Then when your total earnings fC
1856 have been reported, you can as
that revised average monthly incon
be calculated. You can then add q
your 1855 income and all your 49,
income and divide by "a (months)
you can add all your 1855 income al
half your 1856 income and divide |
IS (months) The highest average wal
would be used and if the new rate
higher than the temporary rate, it W
apply back to April 1856.
If you do not have urgent need
the money, you could wait until y
report your income next January

duced on, the farm. He could produce
some chickens to broiler or frier stage
or sell a calf or two. Or he could earn
some money by custom work with his
farm machinery on other farms, hiring
someone to do some of the work II
necessary.
If he is considering farm sale, he
should remember that sale of farm
machinery and equipment or of work
animals, breeding stock, and dairy
COWS cannot be included in self-employ-
ment icome. Any earnings from sale
of these items are treated as capital
gains.
Survivors Payments
Farmers have been included in the
old age and survivors insurance program
only since Jan. 1, 1855. For both young
and old farmers, just as soon as
minimum requirements for coverage
in 1855 and 1856 are met, survivors are
eligible for benefits, even as early as
April 1, 1885, If the farmer died after
March 81, 1856, it would be possible
for his survivors to qualify for benefits
before the tax is paid in 1857.
His widow or the executor of the
estate would submit proof that the
husband had made at least $500 $500
gross in 1856 and would later file an
income tax return for the husband
(early 1857. The amounts of survivors
benefits, like retirement benefits, de-
pend upon the average monthly in
come (See table,.
First, lump sum payment is made
to the widow or to the person paying
the burial expenses if there is no
surviving wife This amount varies
from minimum of $50 to maximum
of $255. A widow with dependent chill
dren will obtain benefits until the
youngest child is 18 years old. Her pay
ments do not start again until she is IS
and then only if the farmer was fully
insured at death. Fully insured status
requires 40 quarters of coverage for
farmer now under so years of age
but requires only quarters for {
farmer who reaches his 65th birthday
before October, 1856.
Check Arrangements Carefully
Any plans or arrangements for OBJ
tanning social security coverage SHOULD
be checked carefully with the Socia
Security Administration and the In
ternal Revenue Service to avoid mis-
understanding. Your future benefits de
pend on how your present incom,
transactions are handled. For thos
who plan to qualify in six quarters o
two years, timelineSs and methods G
executing these transactions may b
very important.
Our purpose in this article is to ca
attention to some aspects of the socis
security program that may not b
common knowledge. This is new pr,
gram as far as farmers are concerne
and some of the rules will have to
made from the day-to-day experienc
of the Internal Revenue and Socii
Security field offices. Although "
have checked our information as we
as we could with available sources, v
want to emphasize the desirability
checking your plans with those office

apply for benefits and lose nothing
because any benefits for which you are
eligible can be paid retroactively to
when you are first eligible.
There is one chance of loss, though.
Suppose you should die in November.
Then your wife could begin obtaining
survivors benefits from the date of
your death but the retirement benefits
you might have received would not be
paid. 1t would be good idea to check
your situation thoroughly with your
nearest Social Security official when
you first become eligible.
Farmers 65 to ~ years cid
If you are between 65 and 2 years
of age you should consider the limita-
ton on earnings while drawing retire
ment benefits. In this age bracket
you are allowed to earn up to 81 200
met income) without losing any re-
tirement benefits. For earnings over
$1,000 your retirement benefits are re-
duced according to a formula. If
you have over $1,000 earned income
during the year, you are ineligible to
draw any retirement benefits.
If you have no prospect of earning
more than $1,000 in 1856, then the
earnings limitation would have nothing
to do with your decision concerning
when to start drawing benefits. How
ever, the more you earn in 1856 Ito
$4,000 the greater your average month
ly income will be and the greater your
retirement benefits. If you continue
farming in 1856 and expect to earn
more than $1,000 you might consider
waiting until the end of the year to
apply for benefits.
There is still another possibility, how
ever, that you can realize a net cash
income of $4,000 for 1856 by April 1,
and then retire and rent the farm.

come and will not affect the size Of
benefit payments.
If you are between 65 and Y anC
intend to keep on farming after 1856
you should consider leasing enough o
your farm to hold your earned ne
income down to $1,000. Suppose tina
farmer who is eligible for MONTH.
retirement benefits of $50 for himsel
and $40 for his wife, continues to farm
in 1857 and has a net income of $3.50
in 1857. Because he makes over $1,000
he would receive no retirement benefit
so his net income would still be So 500
Now if he rents out part of his Ian

has net income of only 81 200 on tn
rest of the land, his total income woul

income plus 81 ,44O Social Security bene-
fits for IL months.
Not only does this example happen
to show an income $40 greater than
if he had operated all the farm but
he would have to pay the 8 per cent
social security tax only on $1,000 IN
stead of So 900 and he pays no federal
income tax on his retirement benefits.
Farmers Older than "
The simplest kind of case is the
farmer who is 2 years old or older,
because there is no limit to the amount
of income he can earn in self-emplOy-
ment, or as an employee, and still
collect monthly retirement benefits.
If you met the minimum requirement
for coverage in 1855 and have already
realized gross income of $500, or net
income of $4OO, by April this year
you should apply for retirement bene-
fits. Then you can go ahead and try
as hard as you wish to net as much
as $4,000 during the year to build up
your average monthly income and hence
your monthly benefit
Early in 1857 you will pay your Sc
curity tax on your 1856 income. If you
have done well, and increased your
average income above the average
figured April 1, 1856, you can ask to
have your average recalculated. Any
increase in your monthly benefit can
be made retroactive.
Amount of Benefit
Whether or not you get beenfitS at
all is determined by how long you are
covered But the size of your retire
ment check will depend on your aver
age monthly earnings while you are
covered. We have explained how the
average income is computed for farm
ers who are IS years old by Oct. 1, 1856.
Table 1 gives you an idea of how much
the retirement benefits or survivors,
benefits would be for various levels
of average monthly earnings
Suggestions for Increasing Earnings
For borderline cases, where the older
farmer is in poor health, or for other
reasons anticipates some difficulty in
meeting the $4OO net income require
ment in 1856 $500 gross income) the
following suggestions may be useful.
Suppose he sold just enough farm pro-

2 Teen-Agers Take
A Trimming
In Court-LiterulIy

Two teenagers literally took a
trimming yesterday in Arlington
Juvenile Court.
Judge Hugh Cregger. jr., noted
that the "duckcut" hair style
worn by the youths is becoming
IA badge" of juvenile law vio-
lators and ordered their hair cut
in conventional manner.
One of the youngsters was
charged but found not guilty of
stealing hubcaps. The other was
arrested at the home of a di-
vorced beautician who allegedly
provided teenagers with drinks
and "duckcuts."
For the uninitiated, the duck
cut consists of letting the hair
grow long. literally applying
grease or water, and combing it
backward and upward into a
pointed mass, not unlike the tail
feathers of a duck.

tween juvenile delinquency and

adopt a commercial coming plan
patterned after the recommen-

extension of commercial coming

Virginia Surplus Assures
Money for Literary Fund

RICHMOND, Aug. IA (P).-
Virginia ended its 1886 BIZ
.ennium with a general fund
surplus of $21,774,272, State
Controller Sidney c. Days, jr.,
said today.
The surplus assures the State
Literary Fund of half of the
81 million appropriated condi-
tionally by the 1856 General
Assembly.
Mr.. Day said general fund COL
lections for the II months ended
June 80, 1856, totaled $138,840,-
686. Revenues in the preceding
II months had totaled $685.
573.519.
The Legislature had antici-
pated a surplus of $20,575.000 at
the close of the biennium and
had appropriated this amount in
the budget it passed this spring
for the biennium ending in 1856.
Additionally, the legislators
made conditional appropria-
ton of 81 million for the Lit
erary Fund.
The legislators provided, how
ever, that this appropriation of
50 million shall be paid only
out of the excess of $2O,757, 900
in the surplus in the General
Fund of the State treasury at
the close of business on June
30. 1856, and only to the extent
that the said surplus exceeds
$20,757, 000."

8 Firms Usinu
Purse Nets

ANNAPOLIS, Aug. IA (P).-
The Tidewater Fisheries Com
mission was notified yesterday it
has been temporarily restrained
from preventing two Delaware
firms and one from New Jersey
from using purse nets in Mary
land waters.
Chairman John P. Tawes said
he was advised by the attorney
generals Office that the tempo
rary injunction was granted in
Baltimore Federal District Court
by Judge Calvin Chestnut. No
date was set for a hearing.
Mr.. Tawes said the order was
obtained by Fish Products Co.,
Inc, of Lewes, Del; Sea Coast
Products, Inc, of Lewes and the
Atlantic Navigation Co. of Port
Monmouth, N. j.
Involved is an old State law
which prohibits use of purse nets
in Maryland waters. These nets,
the TIC chairman explained,
are larger than haul seines and
are used for catching entire
schools of fish at one time.
He said the three firms fish
primarily for mennhaden or ale
wives. Under the injunction
their boats can work within the
'3-mile limit of Maryland coastal
waters.
Mr.. Tawes said the TIC made
several such arrests last year
and in these cases fishermen paid
Ia $1,000 fine in Magistrates
Court at Snow Hill.
