BILL AINSLEY

Your Personal Military Affairs:
Medical care for dependents, the
dependents Medical Care Act OF
1856 set up sweeping and bene-
ficial changes in the medical care
provided for dependents of MEM
berS of the Armed Forces.
For many years, the service
has provided medical care to
military dependents on an avail
able" basis. However, because of
distance overtaxed facilities, or
because the necessary treatment
was not available, many service
dependents did not receive medi-
cal care at government expense.
The Dependents Medical Care
Act insures that eligible depend
ents, as defined by the act, will
receive adequate medical and sur
gical treatment. 1t accomplished
this by: Cd Continuing the treat
ment already provided by the
services; (2) by makingst possible
for spouses and children OF active
duty personnel to use civilian
type of medical care, including
complete obStetrical and materni-
ty care.
These dependents if not resid-
ing with the service member, have
free choice between service and
civilian medical facilities for ap-
proved medical care. If the re-
quired medical care for depend
ents residing with the service
member isn't available at nearby
service facility, the approriate
service authority will furnish a
permit for authorized civilian
medical care.
At service medical facilities de-
pendents pay charge of $1.75
for each day of disqualification TO
cover cost of meals.
At civilian medical facilities de-
pendents pay a total fee of $25.00
or a daily charge of $1.75, which
ever is higher, for each period OF
! disqualification.

will deliver the recommended VOL
umes of liquid at 80 to 40 pounds
pressure are satisfactory.
Accurate celebration of spray
equipment is very important. A
variation in the rate of applica-
ton may fail to kill the weeds
or may injure the crop. The best
method to calibrate a Sprayer is:
l. Check and clean all nozzleS.
If discharge varies more than 1919
replace the defective nozzle.
2. Fill the sprayer tank to the
very top.
3. Spray exactly 1-8 mile Gao

and pressure normally used when
spraying.
4. Return to the exact starting
position and refill the tank to

5. Calculate the application rate

Three Causes Named
For Poison Accidents

they kept it up high, in closed
bottles or hidden in purses. Yet
this did not prevent 81 little
children from getting the poi
son.
Under the third cause, So poi
sonings occurred when older
users of medicines or poisons
failed to put them back in their
regular places.
Easily Obtained
''Thirty-eight children" the
doctors said, "were able to pick
the poison up off the floor or
ground, while 27 children re-
quired the extra effort of reach
ing or climbing to obtain the
poison where it lay on a flat
unenclosed surface, such as a
drainboard, sink, table, etc."
"There is no substitute for
continual vigilance and careful
supervision Of the toddler," Doc
tors Jensen and Wilson con-
clude.
Other Safety Measures
Accepting these pediatricians'
wise emphasis on vigilance, you
and I are amazed that they as
sumo nothing else can be done
for the safety of the child big
enough to climb, creep or
toddle.
We know it can, by means Of
physical pain connected with
things he must avoid; that the
youngster able to move about
under his own steam can ef-
fectively be taught the meaning
of No, and thus have his safety
greatly increased.

SOMEBODY wasn't careful
enough could be said of acci-
dental poisoning of babies. !
So say two pediatricians, DR..
Gordon D. Jensen and DR.. Wes-
ley w. Wilson in a recent issue
of the Journal of the American
Academy of Pediatrics.
Study Made
They had studied 100 cases
in which babies and children,
Al girls and 56 boys, were ac-
cidentally poisoned; 81 of them
were between one and two years
of age. The studies were based
on cases reported to a. Poison
Center in Seattle.
The doctors found TIL r e
causes of poisoning:
1. Some other person was in
volved in the accident.
2. The parents didn't suppose
their children could get hold of
the poison.
Out OF It's Place
3. The poison was not kept
in its usual place.
In the first cause, the other
person was a brother, sister
playmate or careless adult.
Sometimes an older child un-
screwed a bottle Of weed killer
insecticide or similar substance
and measured out a "dose Of
medicine" for the little one tt
take. Or an adult had failed tC
put away a cleaning substance
shoe polish, paint thinner o.
other dangerous material an'
the infant drank it. Or tn
youngster found aspirin left ou
of its place and ate it.
ASPIRIN ROlSOnIng
Aspirin was the gre tie S
single poisoner-24 cases.
Just three children had OF
tanned it from a medicine chest
the others got it from mother
purse, off a window sill, tabl
or telephone stand.

SUGAR QUOTA

Rising prices have forced the
Administration to expand tight
ly controlled sugar market.
The Agriculture Department has
increased the total amount of SUI
gar to be marketed in the United
States this year from 100000
to 100000 tons. An announce
ment said the action had been ta-
ken because apparently the de-

AIR DRILL

The Federal Aviation Agency
has asked for public understand
ing and acceptance of the need to
ground all civil aircraft for six
hours on Sept. 10 between a. m.
and 2 a. m.
The sky will be swept clear of
non-military aircraft during that
period for a large-scale training
exercise of the North American
Air Defense Command.
The exercise, described as a 'vi-
tai training requirement for our
entire air defense system, was
slated for that time period to
meet military needs, and would
result in minimum disturbance
of airline schedules.

FOOD PRICES

In the next few months retail
food prices will continue to aver
age a little higher than a year
earlier, according to the Agricul-
ture Department.
Retail food prices have tended
to rise seasonally since midwinter,
when they were a little lower
than a year earlier. In June
these prices were 1 per cent high
er than in June, 1859.
The food-price advance, which
began in late winter, largely re-
flected strengthened farm prices
of hogs, eggs, potatoes and fruit.

member with 20 years service
would retire with 500 of his
active duty pay, and member
with 25 years would get 6212 %.
Officers after a minimum of 20
years active federal service, of
which at least 10 were as a COM
missioned officer, may retire and
receive retired pay. Their re-
tired pay is computed at 215 20
of the basic pay of their retired
grade for every year Of service
creditable for basic purposes.
Retirement Cor separation) for
disability: If you are disabled
while in service from a service
connected cause that is not the
result of your intentional miScon-
duct or wilful negligence, or not
incurred during a period of un-
authorized absence, you may be
either temporarily or permanent
ly retired, or you may be separ-
ated with severance pay.
If you are retired for physical
disability, you are given choice
of two ways to compute your
monthly retirement pay. In most
cases, one will be far better than
the other, but in some cases the
decision may be close. The meth
DDS are:
212T6 of your basic pay multi
piled by the total number of your
years of active service or basic
] pay multiplied by the percentage
Of your disability. In either case,
however, yfhe limit of monthly re-
tired pay is 75% of your basic
pay. Temporary disability retired
pay is never less than 500 nor
more than 7596 of your basic pay.
If the disability is copensable
by the Veterans Administration
you may also apply for VA COM
pensation, normally $225. For
100% disability, but which may
run higher for certain catagories
of disability (plus allowance for
dependents). A veteran who is so
disabled as to need regular aid
and attendance receives an addi-
tional allowance.
You cannot receive the full
amounts of both disability retired
pay and VA compensation at the
same time. However, if your VA
compensation is less than your
retired pay, you may receive the
VA compensation as well as re-
tired pay, which will be reduced
by the amount of VA payments.
On the other hand, if VA COM
pensation would be more than
your retired pay, you can waive
all of your retired pay in favor
Of the higher VA check. Either
way, the total you receive can
: not be more than the larger Of
the two payments.
That part of retired pay that
I is based upon disability is free
S of federal income tax. VA COM
pensation is not taxable under
S federal laws.
Disability severance pay is a
lump sum paid to you at the
: time of separation for a disability
e of less than 300, if you have less
, than 20 years active service, ano
Z, is computed on your monthly baslt
y pay. 1t is 2 months pay for eacf

le pay is not subject to federal in
