Town Journal magazine re-
Gently asked Social Security Ad-
ministrator Charles I. Schottland
to discuss the new Social Secur-
ity Act at a town meeting in
Lexington, NC. The questions
posed by the citizens of Licking
ton (pop. $4,000 may be the same
one syou would ask. Here they
are, with Mr.. Schottland's an
Swers:
Question: Is it financially more
advantageous for women to draw
Social Security benefits at 62 un-
der the new law, or wait until IS?
And will my Social Security
credits earned while was work
ing be held for me until then?
Answer: Yes, they will.
The answer to your first ques-
ton depends on the situation. D
Widows will get full benefits
based on their husbands credits
at 81, instead of IS. (2) Wives
of retired workers can start
drawing at 81; but their monthly
checks are permanently reduc-
ed $50. For the first IL years the
total you get is more than if you
waited. Afterwards the total is
less. 90 Women with their own
Social Security credits can also
start drawing at 81; but their
monthly payments are perman-
nently reduced by 20%. For the
first Is years they're ahead; then

they fall behind. (But even after
you retire" you can earn 81 200
"a year without FORGETTING any
benefits.) All three kinds of early
payments to women start this
month.
Question: What does the new
law offer to people who are un-
able to earn a living because of
illness or injury?
Answer: The new law begins
a national disability insurance
plan. If yo uare over so and so
severely disabled you are un-
able to engage in any substantial
work, you may be eligible for
payments after next July /, if
ID your disability has lasted six
montsh and appears unlikely to
improve; and co you have work.
ed in jobs covered by Social Sc
curity for five of the last 10 years,
and Is of the last So months be-
fore ruled disabled.
Disability payments are based
on how long you've worked and
your earnings. If disabled now,
you can file this month with
your local Social Security office.
If you are disabled before so,
you can apply to have your So
cial Security credits frozen
Then, when you reach so, they
won't be reduced by averaging
i nthe months or years of no or
low income.
The new law also covers chill

Question: Does the new law

New Telescope
To Be Opened
Next January

When the new Warner & Swasey
telescope is opened to the public,
probably in January, it will pro-
vide the finest public astronomy
facilities in the country, according
to DR.. Jason j. Nassau, head of
the astronomy department at Case
Institute of Technology. Work on
the installation is proceeding at the
observatory on Taylor I'd.
The 36-inch reflecting telescope,
built at the Warner & Swasey Co.
plant here, has spectograph at
tachment for finding what stars
are made of, and a camera for
photographing them.
The new equipment is designed
particularly for the instruction of
students and for open nights, which
are held once a month.
The new equipment replaces a
24-inch Schmidt camera telescope
that is now in the new Nassau
Astronomical Station in Montville,
Geauga County, where most of the
Case research will be done.
The 100000 purchase price of
the new telescope was met with
a $4,000 grant from the Cleveland
Foundation, an equal sum raised
by the Cleveland Astronomical So
ciety and other contributions.

dictable antics. Keep one eye out
for chickens or ducks on the high
way, for dogs darting across the
road, or for grazing cattle.
School buses, almost un-
known inside big city limits,
are familiar sights along every
country road, and the sound OF
school bells sends many
youngster scurrying alongside
or across the road to classes.
Remember to stop whenever a
school bus stops, and to remain
stopped until it proceeds.
Perhaps the greatest danger in
motoring ~on back roads stems
from the structure Of the roads
themselves. Many of them are
old, designed and built long be-
fore the age Of turnpikes and
superhighways. Ruts and bumps
call for a firm hand on the wheel.
as do unbanked country curves
that just weren't designed for
high-speed driving.
So next time y0u spend ea
afternoon driving the back
roads, keep in mind thst the

Good Response
To Call For
Air Recruits

Response to the Air Force need
for aviation cadet applicants in
this area has been gratifying,
Staff Sergeant Garman, Air Force
Recruiter for this area said today.
Sgt. Garman sounded the call
for men with over two years OF
college last week. He reports that
he has received numerous inquiries
from qualified young men in this
area and that the inquiries may
lead to enlistments.
No restrictions have been put
on the number Of aviation cadet
applications with over two years
college work who may enlist in the
Air Force. Both Pilots and Nav
igators are needed, Sgt. Garman
said, and applicants for Air Force
Flying training are receiving Class
assignments as early as two
months after becoming fully quail
flied.
Pilot trainees win their wings
and are commissioned as second
lieutenants after IA months train
ing, while Navigator hopefuls are
rated and commissioned at the end
Of one year.
According to Sgt. Garman, a
current trend in the Air Force
finds Cadets enlisting for the
Navigator program, earning their
wings and commissions, and then
going through the Pilot training
program to become double-rated.

ments he or she must make, When
motoring in the country.
Not the least important OF these
facts is that farmers often must
use main highways to transport
tractors, hay wagons and other
farm vehicles from barn to held.
These vehicles present real
hazards for the city driver who
is not alert to the danger.
1t is often difficult to recognize
the vehicle ahead as tractor,
and even more difficult to gauge
its extremely slow speed. At the
last moment, there may not be
time to stop.
Farm animals, too, whether
their heads are up or down, can

NEWS FOR VETERANS

Eligible widows of veterans
who die of service-connected
cause may receive financial
benefits computed on current
military pay scales, even if
the veterans served when
military pay was lower than
at present.
Veterans A d m nistr a.
tion said the Survivor Bens-
fits Act, effective January
l., 1857, relates q widows
benefit payments to the pay
grade attained by the veter-
an during his service.
VA said its terms are op-
tional for a widow whose hus-
band died Of a service-connec-
ted cause before January /,
1857: but where the service
connected death occurred on
or after January /, 1867, the
widow will be eligible to re-
ceive compensation only un-
der the new law.
Under the new law, VA
said, the benefits may be paid
to a widow at a monthly rate
Of SIP, pus IL percent of
the monthly basic pay now
being received by a service
man whose rank and years
of service are the same as
those of the deceased veter-
an. Payment is rounded to
the next higher dollar. Mini
mum benefit is $122.
The military service de-
partment, not VA, decides
the amount of basic pay in
each case, VA said.
Pay scales in the military
services change from time to
time, just as do civilian
wages. Twenty years ago, an
Army private started at $21
a month. Today a private's
starting pay is $78 monthly.
Periodic increases are given
for length of service.
Military pay grades, how
ever, indicate whether a man
is a private, a corporal, a SER
geant, etc. With minor
changes, the present pay
grades have been in effect
since 1908.
