Poultry Inspection Mark
The round USDA Inspected for
Wholesomeness" mark on your
chicken, turkey, duck or other
poultry product is a symbol of add
ed consumer protection, Florence
Y. Smith, county home demonstra-
tion agent, says.
That's because all poultry pro-
cessed in plants engaged in in
terstate commerce is now required
to be checked for wholesomeness
by Federal inspectors.
The Poultry Products Inspection
Act, the law which provides this
added consumer protection, went
into effect January /. Though there
are some exemptions of practical
nature while the Agricultural Mar
keting Service is in the transitional
period of putting this law into ef-
feet, you are practically certain to
see the round inspection mark in
most of the larger grocery stores
these days, Mrs. Smith said.
The inspection mark is usually
on wing tags, clips, outer wrappers
or boxes or on giblet wrappers.
Some inspected poultry, however,
may not be identified as such at
your store.
Fresh dressed, ice-packed chic
kens are usually shipped in large
boxes, which do carry the inspec-
tion mark, and are then packaged
at the retail store, where they may
or may not be identified as Federal
.ly inspected. BY inquiring at your
store you should be able to find
out if poultry has been inspected.
Poultry processing plants oper-
ating under government inspection
must meet strict requirements for
sanitation and processing practices
Every bird prncessed is examined
by veterinarian or a trained in
spector working under his super
vision to make sure that it is clean,
healthy food. Poultry. that passes
this test is identified with the USDA
inspection mark and is your assur-
ance of wholesomeness Mrs. Smith
said.

Social Security News

The 1856 Amendments to the So
cial Security Act brought lawyers
dentists, osteopaths, veterinarians,
chiropractors, naturopaths and op-
tOmetrists under social security.
They are now, for the third year,
required to pay their social secur-
ity tax. along with their Federal
income tax returns. This announce
ment was made today by Mr. r. F.
Bayer, Agent of Internal Revenue
Service in the Georgetown district.
In conjunction with Mr.. Bayer's
announcement, Mr.. Edward T. Sulli-
van, district manager of the Dover
Office of the Social Security Ad-
ministration pointed out that, since
the extension of coverage to these
professional self-employed persons,
they are now building the same
kind of insurance protection for
themselves and their families that
the Federally-operated system has
afforded most other self-employed
individuals since 1851.
Mr.. Bayer stated that the law
was effective with the first taxable
year ending after 1855. Lawyerr
dentists, osteopaths, veterinarians,
chiropractors, naturopaths AID op-
tometrists who file their Federal
income tax returns on calender
year basis are required to pay a
self-employment tax on their net
earnings for each calendar year
after 1855 if their net earnings
amounted to $400 or more in year.
The Unemployment tax rate for
1858 is 1873 per cent on the first
$4,000 of net earnings. This amounts
to a maximum of $141.75 on $4,000.
These taxes are in addition to any
income taxes that you have to pay.
Schedule c. Profit Tor Loss) From
Business or Profession must be
properly completed, including the
Schedule Sc portion, and submitted
at the same time as the other forms
that are filed as part of the Federal
income tax return.

The Keeper OF
The Records

Who pays the bills in your fam
lily? asks Miss Patricia Middleton
home management specialist with
the agricultural extension service
at the University of Delaware. Not
who earns the money to pay the
bills, but who actually sees to il
that the check or money order OF
cash gets to the bank or landlord
the insurance company and the de-
partment or drug store, when it is
due?
In many homes, Miss Middleton
says, it is the wife who keeps
track of the due-dates for payments
of all kinds of periodic family bills
nowadays, just as she is solely or
largely responsible for the day in
day out spending for food and a
dozen other family expenses.
Along with these responsible
ties, the wife in many families is
The Keeper of Many Records. 1t is
she who files bills, receipts, can
celled checks and other evidence OF
mi1y financial transactions,
whether she keeps them all in one
special drawer or puts them care
fully in one or more marked fold
ers or envelopes.
If she does her job efficiently
she has reason to preen little at
income tax time. For it is then
that she can produce the all-im-
portant Recommendation that will
back up legitimate deduction
claims when she and her husband
sit down with their tax return
forms.
Doing her share of the all
around job of managing family
money comes naturally to many
women these days, Miss Middleton
said.
More girls than ever before are
learning about family money man.
agement in high school and college
courses, for one thing. And more
girls are getting practical money
management expert ience both
through living on what they earn
when they go to work, and through
handling business records on the
job.
But whatever her previous ex-
perience- lack of there's one
angle every wife should consider /:
in addition to sharing in major fl
nancial decisions affecting the fam
lily. by handling details of the fam
ily's ordinary finances a wife can
save her hard-working husband
time and energy every week and
every month-and perhaps make a
more relaxed and even healthier
man of himi

FBI Chief Raps
Coddling Young Thugs

continued from page one)
a mounting savagery, senseless
brutality, which leaves little doubt
that, in the interest of self preser-
vation, it is now time for sterner
measures to be taken by the COM
munities and the courts"
Hoover raped those social
workers and juvenile court author
tiles who have strong views against
disclosing the names of juvenile
offenders.
II see no reason for secrecy,
Hoover declared.
"I feel when a felony is COM
mitted in a community, there is
no reason for Withholding the name
of the youthful offender and he
ought to be treated in the same
manner as an adult
Youth should not be treated
cruelty, but when they do, not
measure up to their responsible
ty of obeying the law, they must
be made to accept the responsible
ty for their acts"
At the present time, he asserted
'the terrifying pace of youthful
laWlessness" is more serious than
the IL per cent increase in general
crime in 1858 for the nation as a
whole.
He suggested one thing to be
done is to- give more publicity tC
the work of youth organizations
such as the Boys Club of America
Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, YMCA
YWCA.
Hoover quoted Juvenile Judge
Lester H. Lobe of Montana as
saying he had never had a Boy
Scout, Boys Club member or any
member of an established youth
group in his court.
In other phases of his testimony
Hoover reported there have been
108 bombings or attempted bomb
ings having racial or religious
aspect" since Jan. 1, 1857. OF these
he said IL have involved schools
and 16 have involved churches.
The other 80, Hoover said, in
volved private homes, amusement

other places.
The FBI chief said too that in
recent months the railroad indus
try has been singled out as one of
the primary targets for Communist
penetration. What he said further
about this, if anything, was not
made public.
Saying the Communist Party still
poses "a formidable domestic
threat" to the United States.
Hoover said other recent Commu-
mist Party activities include efforts
to infiltrate Negro and labor
groups so as to "create agitation
and confusion"
Hoover, who was appointed FBI
director 36 years ago today, in dis
cussing juvenile problems, had a
good word to say about youth gen.
orally. He said:
"The figures show that only 33
per cent of the youths under Is
were arrested in 1857, which indi-
Gates about 81 per cent are grow
ing up to be decent Americans and
who resent, 1 think very strongly
the unfavorable publicity that
comes to them as juveniles due to
the conduct of a small segment
of their age group"
