RoiIwuy Develops
New Insulation

ALTOONA, Pa, Aug. S (APe
The Pennsylvania Railroad
said yesterday it has developed
a new type electric motor in
sulation that will eliminate IS
per cent of the electrical break
downs in Diesel and electric
locomotives.
Epoxy resin is the name given
| to the new insulation. The rail-
road says it will take the place
of paper, linen, varnish and
other installations. Chief adVan-
tage, according to the railroad
is that moisture cannot WORK
through epoxy resin.

With perfect politenesS
and genteel Difference, Gov.
Nelson Rockefeller of New
York is reaching for Vice
President Richard Nixon's
jugular vein.
Mr.. Rockefeller's disclo-
sure that he will contest Mr..
Nixon for the presidential
nomination only if the pub
lie opinion polls are kind to
him has hit the Nixon forces
hard in their one vulnerable
spot.
They had not been afraid
of any outright Rockefeller
challenge in the old-fash-
Toned way-a frank attempt
to go out and grab pro-
Rockefeller delegates to next
years G. o. P. convention.
They felt that such an unhid-
den Rockefeller thrust would
shatter against Mr.. Nixon'S
rock-like position with the
regular, organization Repub-
licanS.
The Vice President him
self for months has known,
and privately said, that the
one danger from Gov. Rookie
Teller was by way of an ap-
peal not to the organization
Republicans but to the large,
happy public by way of a
personal popularity contest.
For the vague factors of
like and dislike-the way a
man smiles or combs his
hair-have immense effect
on the polls. This every pol
itician knows. none more
keenly than the Vice Presi-
dent. The trouble is that he
has, surely, been "contro-
versial" and Gov. Rockefeller
surely has not been.

Moneuyers by u S. and Soviet
Over Geneva and Visits Analysed

visit by Mr.. Khrushchev TO
the United States, that before
you would issue an invita-
ton to him, there would have
to be some evidence Of give
in the sense of give and take
on the part Of Mr.. Khru-
shchev, on Western principles.
May we take it that there has
been such indication"
The President replied as
follows:
mo, I can't don't Think
you can say that, Mr.. 3s.air.
This is what I have said
that the holding of a sum-
NIT meeting and negotiation,
that that would be, to my
mind, absolutely impractical
and, as the State Department
says, unproductive unless We
could count on some positive
results. But I would say these,
so far as our discussions OF
mutual problems, are ex-
ploratory rather than any at
tempt at negotiation"
Mr.. Eisenhower revealed
that "some time back" he had
suggested to the State De-
partment that he believed,
lin the effort to melt a little
bit of the ice that seems to
freeze our relationships with
the Soviets, that possibly a
visit such as I now have pro-
posed would be useful. and
we studied this thing and. in
early July, I initiated the
correspondence that finally
brought about an agree
ment."
Under the circumstances,
it now is apparent Just why
Foreign Minister Gromyko
wouldn't agree to anything
at Geneva. AS long as a
consultation with the Presi-
dent of the United States
was being planned. the So
Wet government felt that
nothing further need be done
for the present. Conversely.
it is possible that Mr.. EisenA
hover hoped his gesture
might eventually have a
beneficial effect. Apparently
he still held to that view,
even in his special confer
ence with the press this very
week, when he said:
1.-The visit itself (between
Khrushchev and the Presi-
dent) has no direct connec-
ton with any possible later
summit meeting. I, Of course.

announcement would inspire

Many inquiries from both do
mestic employees and from people
who employ such help in their
homes are received by the Social
Security Administration. AS h e
question arises so frequently, here
is the rule:
The law requires that people who
employ maids. babysitters. yard
men, etc, report wages for their
help if the help is paid cash wages
of $50 or more in a calendar quar-
ter. The work done by the en-
ployee does not have to be regular
on full-time The test is the amount
Of wages paid In the calendar
quarter.
How does an employer report the
wages of a domestic employee
First Of all, the employee must have
a social security card This can be
obtained by visiting or writing the
Lynchburg Social Security Office or
from your local post office

April. July and October everyone
who has had a maid, a yardman
or other household employee work

dar quarter must send a form 942
to the District Director Of Internal
Revenue, Richmond. if the en-
ployee has been paid the required
$50 or more in the quarter. On this
form is shown the name and social
security number of each domestic
employee exactly as it is shown on
the social security card, and also
the total amount Of wages paid in
the quarter All of this information
must be shown correctly in order
for the employee to get proper so

deducts two and one-half per cent
from the wages he pays the en-
ployee and adds two and one-half
per cent Of his own. This tax money
is sent to the Internal Revenue Of
