NEWS FOR VETERANS

Veterans Administration,
the Rockefeller Institute and
Radio Corporation of Ameri-
ca are joining in laboratory
tests and experiments to
evaluate the practical uses of
a radio pill" which was dem
onstrated publicly at the
Rockefeller Institute.
The unique device is a
tiny radio broadcasting cap
sule which can be swallowed
like a medicinal pill. AS it
passes through a PERSONS in
testine, this worlds smallest
FIN broadcasting transmitted
signals the activity of the di-
gestive tract to an outside re-

The device was developed
and tested jointly by Rookie

developers cautioned that it
must be considered as an ex-

BY V. b. HOllOmOn
Manager of the Roanoke
Social Security Office

The new year brought
something new to social Sc
curity. Now it includes dis
ability insurance as well as
old-age and survivors insur-
ance. Beginning with Janu-
airy, a disabled child of an
old-age insured beneficiary or
an insured worker who has
died, may get monthly pay
ments after reaching age 10;
beginning with July an IN
sured worker who is disabled
may get monthly payments
between the ages of so and
65.
AS payments to disabled
adult children are now IN eff
feet, and many children
throughout the country re-
ceived their first monthly
checks early in February, I'll
devote this article to this pro-
vision in the social security
law. To get disabled child's
benefits a person must be de-
pendent upon a parent, step
parent, or adopting parent
who is entitled to old-age in
surance benefits or who was
insured for benefit payments
at the time of his or her
death.
Under the old law all chill
dren of such a parent were
entitled to monthly payments
until they reach age Is UNI
less they married before
reaching that age. This has
not been changed. Under the
new law, however, a disabled
dependent child is entitled to
monthly payments after age
18 unless the child marries or
overcomes his disability. In
addition, benefit paid to a
mother who has an unmarried
child in her care will continue
as long as the child's disabili-
ty exists.
To be entitled to childs
disability insurance benefits
a child must not only be de
pendent on a parent who is
getting old age insur-
ance BEN fits or who
died after 1889 and was
insured for social security
benefits at the time of death,
but the child must meet GER
tain other conditions Under
the social security law. He
or she must have become dis
abled before reaching age 18
and the disability must have
continued until after age Is
The disability, moreover mus
be so severe as to prevent tn
person from working anc
must be expected to continu
for a long time or indefinite
~. A temporary or partia
disability will not entitle
child to disabled child's bene
fits after age 18.

Some Papers Icy

BY RICHARD FRYKLUND
European Correspondent Of The star

EUROPEAN Correspondent OL Ane StaI
PARIS, April 26.-The Euro
pean press today calls the crisis
in Jordan a direct test of Amer
ica's new Middle East policy.
Some papers, in France par
ticularly, say this Eisenhower
doctrine is the cause of Jordan's S
trouble-that If America were
not insisting that the Amman
government choose between
America on the one hand and
Egypt and Russia on the other
the crisis would not have de-
veloped.
Another prevailing opinion Is
however. that a test between
America and the Russo-Egyptiai
combination was inevitable any
way and just happened to com
up in connection with Jordan.

1T would seem that the United
States is now adopting the very
attitude they reproached France
and Britain for last September, =
the left-wing French newspaper
Combat said editorially.
Leaving aside the fact that
eventual armed action on the
part Of the United States would
be in fragrant contradiction with
what was said over and over to
us during the Port Said affair
it can also be feared that il
would bring about Soviet reac-
ton"
The Times of London indicated
1T believes the Jordan crisis has
developed into a direct contest
between the United States and
its Eisenhower doctrine and the
Russian backed leaders of Egypt
and Syria. The whole future OF
the Middle East is at stake, in
the Times view.
Called Decisive Test
The conservative London Tele-
graph also expressed the belief
that this is the decisive test for
the Eisenhower doctrine. Brit
ish sources point out that the
declaration by President Eisen-
hover and Secretary of State
Dulles that "the independence
and integrity Of Jordan are vita
to the United States" is an oper
invitation to Jordan to ask fol
American intervention. But the
Telegraph warns that military
intervention by the United States
would be disastrous" for tn,
