BY CARRY CLEVELAND MYERS, Ph.D.

ACCORDING to the 1857 re-
port of the Manpower Commits
sion of the United States, so
per cent Of mothers Of school
children work.
Since most Of these mothers
work by day, the child is in
school most Of the time when
she is away from home. But
nearly always the mothers
work day is longer than her
child's school day.
Hazardous Periods
In a few instances, one Of the
working parents may be home
before the child leaves for
school and after he returns.
Usually, however, the school
child must fend for himself
alone for an hour or more be-
fore school and for a like period
after school, and these are haz-
ardous periods for him, phys
ically and morally.
The public has been pretty
well sold on the need of protec-
ton by a competent person or
day nursery for the child under
school age, even of kindergar-
ten age otherwise left at home
alone while both parents are
away. Not many mothers think
of leaving these young children
unprotected. Even if they might
prefer to do so, they hardly
could withstand public disap-
prevail.
No Public Pressure
But there is no comparable
public pressure on the parent Of
the Sabotage child of six or
older for his protection while
home in the absence of both
is. Some kindhearted
neighbors do voluntarily look
after a few Of these children.
Granted that some school
children, Tending for them
selves for short or longer peri
DDS before or after school, learn
considerable self-reliance and
responsibility, most Of them are
greatly endangered physically
and morally.
Unfortunate Effects
Almost any elementary prin-
cipal can tell you of the many
children who are left alone at
home for hours before they
come to school, some of them

SPACE BUDGET

A Senate APPROPRIATIONS sub
committee voted recently to add
$20,000,000 to the Administrations
space budget in an attempt to re-
heve a budget squeeze that threat
ems to slow down the space pro-
gram.
The appropriation, tentatively
approved by a subcommittee
headed by Warren G. Magnuson,
Democrat of Washington, would
give the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration $685., 900, 900
for the fiscal year beginning July
/.

INCREASED COSTS

The Agricultural Research Ser
vice reports that economic devel-
opments clearly indicate that far
mers' production costs this year
will exceed last years estimated
$26, 000, 00O, 900.
1t says the average prices paid
for production goods and services
in April was slightly above that of

DEFENSE INCREASE

"A drive has been opened in the
Senate to expand a $40, 1885,, 900 de-
Tense money bill that is already
more than $1,000, 600, 900 over
President EiSenhower's budget re-
quest.
Senator Henry M. Jackson, De

u. S. PAY RISE

The House of Representatives
has passed a bill to give $697, O0O,-
600 in annual pay increases to
workers. The vote was 377 to 40,
or ninety-nine more than would
be required to override an expect
ed veto. President Eisenhower
had asked for no increases this
year.
The recent House vote sent the
pay measure to the Senate, whose
Post Office and Civil Service
Committee a few hours earlier had
recommended identical legislation.

probation officers from seven
jurisdictions in the Metropoli-
tan Area met yesterday to swap
experiences in handling young
sters in trouble.

country have improved during
the last 10 years by an ex-
change experience.

He said If the Governor i.
successful In meeting State
needs as well as county needs
and still giving relief on the
income tax, a 8 per cent sales
tax is necessary.
If the counties do not want

such a sales tax is not neces-

Senator Boothe came up with
a revenue plan Of his own to

sentials. He listed it as:
l. A 10 per cent tax or
whisky and a 1-cent increase
in the tax on beer to produce
$30.5 million.
2. A Scent tax on cigarettes

Its chief patrons, Senator'S
Harry Stuart Of Russell County,

flying amendments. One Of
these, they said, would be to

tion drugs.

objection to the sales tax base
their opposition on the tax in
sofar as it relates to food and
prescription drugs.
THE amendments proposed
by Senators Stuart and Fen
wick, which were rejected with
out examination by the Senate
Finance Committee, amply take
care Of these objections.
Realizing the merit of these
objections, I have made it

Senate District Subcommittee
working on auto financing leg
islation wants to waste no
time in making effective the
proposed new finance rates.
Winding up an all-day hear
ing on the legislation yester-
day. he asked why the pro-
posed effective date Of the
measure would be go days after
passage.
"The quicker you stop these
sharp practices in the used car
industry, the better" he told
District oficials. II don't want
to give them 80 days to clean
up"
Principal Assistant Corpora
tion Counsel Milton Norman
said later that the District
would have no objection to an
earlier effective date.
Separate Legislation
Mr.. Norman also said the
District plans to send UP sep
arate legislation seeking gen.
eral authority for the Com
missioners to require bonds Of
licensed businesses.
That general bonding au-
thority was included in the
auto financing measure, but
Senator Hartke told city Of
ficials he would delay action
until representatives Of all
business are heard unless the
general bonding authority is
taken out Of the auto financing
bill.
Committee aides said it would
be a simple matter to rewrite
the bonding provisions of the
bill to limit them to auto deal.
ers and auto finance companies.
The bill provides for q maxi
mum bond Of $4,000.
Would Raise Limit
Daniel Partridge Id told the
subcommittee yesterday that
the District Bar Association.
while approving the bill, favored
raising the bond limit TO
s5o,ooo to give more protection
to car buyers who have claims
against dealers or finance COM
panies.
Witnesses at the all-day
hearing were unanimous in
favoring the legislation to fix
maximum auto finance charges
and to authorize the Commits
sioners to write protective regu-
lations.
One of the witnesses, Ross D,
Netherton. research counsel for
the American Automobile ASso-
ciation, testified that the COM
bination Of an unscrupulous
salesman and finance eonnnanv
intent on fleeing the public Is
more than a match for the
normally weIl-informed and
er."
The degree Of confusion
which can be achieved by skill
ful manipulation Of such items
as pickup payments. service

notes and supplementary credit
LIE insurance is almost unbe-
lievable,' he testified. The re-
ported close association of GER
tain used car dealers and a.
nance companies against whom
complaints have been made sug-
gests that a unique form Of
payola-or perhaps in this case
'car-ola'-exists and should be
exterminated for the good of
the entire automotive sales in
dustry."
Speaking for the Automotive
Trade Association Of the Ma.
tional Capital Area, Maurice j..
Murphy, executive vice presi.
dent, told the subcommittee
that the association whole
heartedly indorses the basic
concepts Of the auto financing

YOUR
SOCIAL
SECURITY
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

O. = My father passed away
fourteen years ago. My mother,
my sister and I received social Sc
curity checks until my sister and
/ were 10. After that my mothers
checks stopped. Was she supposed
to have kept on receiving checks?
A.-No. Social Security checks
to widow who is under the age
of 81 stop when her children's
checks stop. However, if your
mother does not remarry, she will
again be able to start receiving
widows social security payments
when she becomes 81 years old.
O.-My father will become IS
years old this year. At that time
he plans to retire on Social Sc
curity. However, he has heard
that he will not be able to draw
his full Social Security if he ap-
plies for his World War 1 Vet
Grams Pension. Could you clarity
this?
A.-Receipt of payments from
the We terra MS Administration
would not affect your fathers
Social Security payments. The
only type of income that will af-
feet Social Security checks is
earnings from wages or self-em-
ployment over the amount per-
mitted by the Social Security
law. However, the Veterans Ad-
miniStration DOES have an in
come limitation and Social Sc
curity payments are included in
this income. Your father may OBJ
tain further information by con-
tacting his nearest Veterans Ad-
ministration office.

Social Security, write to your So
