assistance can be given those who
need help in securing proof of age.
The Social Security Administra-
ton know they can establish a
record of age to satisfy the re-
quirement Of the social security
law. However, cooperation is need
ed from our claimants. Delays in
taking final action on claims, when
proof Of age is needed. sometimes
are caused by claimants them
selves. In those cases claimants do
not respond to letters asking them
to the office to discuss the situa-
ton. OF course we cannot help them
if they do not help themselves by
coming and giving us information.
The Social Security administra-
ton is a service organization. Its
function is to pay benefits as quick
" as possible to those legally en-
titled to receive them

Farm Price
Outlook
Broilers

Best word in broilers is that
prices should hold pretty firm in
the next few weeks with a pos
sibility of some slight undertones Of
strength on the market. A rise, if
any, will not likely be more than
u to a penny higher.
Supplies for twenty two states are
now running six per cent below a
year ago at this time and in De-
cember the spread will widen to
ten per cent. But there's still a
lot Of competition from other meats
to take care of this decrease in
supply.
Broilers in Virginia last week
were unchanged at IA cents pound
In North Carolina and Georgia
broilers were bringing mostly 1872
cents.
SOybeans
Prices are going to climb some
more, SO hang on if you can. Short
term storage looks good but watch
the condition Of beans you store
II they 60 over the IA per cent
level in moisture. then don't risk
it.
Inventories of beans in CCC hold
ings are decreasing rapidly an
should be cleared out considerably
by the first of the year This in
part reflects that more current crop

AS the holiday approaches and pause to reminisce
Of the other times when 1 young-of all my
childhood bliss
How Nom would be so busy cleaning house and
changing dishes
Running out to buy the matzos, herbs and picking
out the fishes
How when came the first night seder and we'd all
sit down to pray
With the family all together-oh, used to be
gay!
Eating eggs soaked in salt water
Dunking fingers in the cup
Waiting for the soup and chicken
How used to lap it up
And when all the prayers then would
run afar
Heart abeating like hammer
When left the door ajar
Then to seek the hidden matza the climax of the
night
How excited when found it grasping fingers held
And when all was finally over and they put me in
my bed
Laughing oh, so very softly, thinking of the night
ahead
Yes those times done and gone with
Now it's who run about
Making ready for Passover while my children run
and shout.
And when finally we are seated and say to one
of ours
Go and fling the door wide open, off she'll go eyes
filled with stars
For know her heart will beat, just mine did long
ago
Till that is finally opened, frad to look, but
wanting
Yes the years have passed too quickly tho it
like yesterday
That was but little girl waiting for my holiday.

Book Review:
EENew Face"
Tops IsroeI's
Best Seller
BY ELIAUH SALPETER

ternak's Doctor Zhivago" has
been published in pocket book
form in Hebrew. NabokOV'S
Lolita" has been reprinted
here by a local publisher in
English. But the most talked
about book in Israel today is
not yet even available in the
book shops, and only the first
chapters of it have so far
reached the Israel public.
The book is Yael Dayan's
"New Face In the Mirror"
which is being published in
serialized form in "Maariv,"
Israel's largest circulation
evening newspaper.
YAEL DAYAN is the
daughter of Gen. Moshe Day
an, IsraePs Chief of Staff dur
ing the Sinai campaign, who
has since resigned from active
service to take up studies at
the Hebrew University and
make an attempt at entering
political life. The "New Face
in the Mirror" is that of Yael
Dayan as seen by herself,
after she left the Army with
the rank of lieutenant but be-
fore she completed the full
two years of compulsory
service. (The reason for her
premature release from the
Army was never publicly dis
closed, but health reasons are
privately given as an eXplana-
ton by her friends.)
"NeW Face In The Mirror"
is an autobiography, in which
the identity of the people ap-
pearing in it is so thinly dis
guised that it does not even
leave room for a guessing
game on Who-is-Who. What
makes the book such an ideal
subject for discussion is that,
on one hand, Israel is such
a small country, where "every-
body knows everybody" and,
on the other hand, the young
authoresS wrote with a frank
ness which some more con-
servatiVe readers may easily
interpret as eXhibitioniSm.
WHEN MISS Dayan writes
about her not too happy
childhood in a home which
was often just a house for
her parents, she mentions per
hapS some details not gener-
ally known. But very many
Israelis could add much more
detail which is not included
in the book. When Miss Day
an devoteS a long chapter to
her relationship with a form
er girl friend of hers-a
rather simple soul whom Yael
used to broW-beat, embarrass
and even make her split up
with a boy friend practically
everybody in j eruSal e m
knows the name of the girl
involved.
When Miss Dayan men
tions, just by the way, a
young musician" who pre-
fers boy friends to girls, she
is talking about a young man
who, though not a musician
(that is a perfunctory dis
guise), is we'll known by all
who frequent the bars and
cafes where young artists
convene. And Miss Dayan's
own interest in the opposite
sex was the subject of cons
tant gossip by the cafe sets
of Jerusalem and Tel Aviv
since her early teens.
Though she is a "sabra" of
Israel born parents, and He
brew is her native tongue,
Miss Dayan wrote her book
in English and this gave rise
to the gossip apparently not
really justified that the CO.
