Passport for Trip
With Miss Monroe
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
Playwright Arthur Miller will
be able to keep his overseas
honeymoon date with Marilyn
Monroe.
The State Department yes
terday gave the New York writer
a passport-good only for six
months instead of the normal
two years.
In New York. Mr.. Miller said
the limited passport more than
meets" his requirements. He
said he and Miss Monroe. whom
he married last week, will fly to
England July ID.
The department had withheld
action on the playwright's appli-
cation until he supplied addi-
tional material, including an af-
fidavit concerning past or pres
ent associations he may have
had with the Communist Party.
Mr. Miller told the House Com
mittee on Un-American Activi-
ties last month he had made
errors in associations but had
never been under Communist
Party discipline.
The State Department did not
make public details of the affi-
davit which the New Yorker filed.

additional amount I will have

No. In general, Social Security
retirement payments are based
on your earnings and the amount
of time you paid into Social

no bearing.

Questions and Answers
On Receiving Benefits

/ for the three of them because
her husband had sworked in a
factory. She thinks she can
continue to get the benefits even
though her work is under Social
Security and she makes about
$50 a month for her work for
me and about the same for her
work for one of my neighbors.
Is that right?"
She can continue to get bene-
fits for every month so long as
her earnings are not over $1,000
a year. If she made more than
that her benefits would have to
be withheld for one or more
months, depending on exactly
how much she earned. The
children's benefits could be con-
tinued. however. no matter how
much she earned.
From Mrs. G. v. N. OF Minot,
N. OAK: I've been getting So
cial Security for about a year
and a half. If I get married
will 1 still get my payments and
payments due to my husbands
eligibility? Neither of us work"
If you're getting payments
based on what you paid into
Social Security while you were
working, your marriage will not
affect your Social Security. How
ever, you would be eligible for
benefits on your husbands work
record after you have been
married three years. You then
could get an amount equal to
half of his payment, or your
own, whichever is larger.

RICHMOND, July 7 (P).-Th,
DEFENDERS of State Sovereignty
and Individual Liberties las
night recommended a schoo
program that would withhold
State funds from integratec
schools in Virginia.
The Defenders, prosegrega
ton organization claiming z
membership of 10000. advocated
a four-point program in an efforl
ito keep Negro and white pupils
apart at the classroom level.
1t represents the organizations
answer to the student assign
ment plan suggested by the Gray
Commission as possible weapon
in the States fight to avoid COM
Ipulsory integration.
Under the assignment plan
students would be directed to
attend schools on the basis OF
health. welfare and aptitude
but not race. However, the De-
tenders contend it would lead tc
some Indignation in Virginia
They're opposed to any integra-
ton in the Old Dominion.
Hold Closed Meeting
The Defenders prgram was
outlined at a closed meeting of
the units Board of Directors. at
tended by more than 100 persons.
The basic features of the pro-
gram are:
/. Enactment of legislation
providing for segregated schools
throughout the State. This idea
previously was outlined before
the 32-man Gray Commission,
set up by Gov. Stanley to try to
steer Virginia down an anti
indignation course. by j. S. Ora
watt of Blackstone, a member of
the Defenders Executive Com
mittee.
The Legislator would declare
policy for maintaining segre-
gated schools under an efficient
clause in the Virginia Constitu-
ton, 1t would say the only way
public schools could be efficiently
operated would be on segre-
gated basis.
2. Enactment of legislation
withdrawing the States consent
for local school boards to be
sued.
Action Against State
In this way, any legal action
brought by the National Asso-
citation for Advancement of
Colored People would have to be
directed against the State itself
and not a specific locality.
3. Enactment of legislation for
withdrawal of State funds for
support of integrated schools.
The Defenders advocated this
more than a year ago.
4. Enactment of legislation TO
provide for the State to assume
control of local schools when
ever suits may be instituted for
the purpose of forcing integra-
ton under court decree. one
would have the General
Assembly assume control Of the
schools.
There was indication that por-
tons Of the Defenders program
was discussed with some mem
bers OF the Gray Commission,
which is composed OF all legis-
lators.
