Some Sewing Problems
That Viii Stump You
BY PATRICIA SCOTT

If we know the various
causes of failure when sew
ing, we can usually solve the
problem by the process of
elimination.
Questi0n-Two things al
ways stump me-thread that
breaks and seams that pucker.
Could you give me the diff
ferent causes of these prob
lems?- Mrs. j. G.
DEMONSTRATING Of nee
die thread might be caused
by: Improper threading. a
knot in the thread, upper
tension too tight, needle
blunt or bent, needle not In
serted in clamp as far as it

wards. thread too coarse for
needle, roughened hole in

being sewn. wrong presser

high-option plans are too ex-
pensive. They declare they will
be able to afford only the low
option plan, which doesn't pro-
vide nearly the same benefits.
Married women employees
with nondependent husbands
object to the fact that their
premiums will be considerably
higher than those for any other
Government workers.
Employees who have children
l9 or older complain that the
health insurance won't cover
these, even though they may
be going to college and COM
pletely dependent on their par
ents for support.
Some members of Group
Health Association complain
that GHA'S action in nearly
doubling its premium rates will
mean that. even with the Gov
ernment paying part of the
cost of the program, their pre-
miums will still be about as
high as they were before.
CHA officials declare that an
increase in premiums had been
long overdue and would have
been raised whether or not the
Federal employe health benefits
program had been enacted.
They declare that the member
ship authorized the premium
increase by a margin of five to
one. They also declare that
CHA members (the CHA will
offer its own plan under the
Federal employe health benefits
program) will receive much
more substantial health inSur-
ance coverage than they have
in the past.
Regarding the other COM
plants, Civil Service Commits
sion officials acknowledge that
they have considerable validity.
However, it is pointed out that
those provisions were specific
ally enacted by Congress and
can be changed only by Con-
greSS.
Based on experience that will
be gained in the health pro-
grams first year of operation
starting in July, it may well be
that Congress will amend the
law to liberalize some of the
provisions employees are COM
planning about, csc officials
say.
PAYROLL DEDUCTION-In-
cidentally, the Controller Cen
eral has ruled that Federal
employe unions qualifying un-
der the health benefits program
with health insurance plans of
their own can't have premiums
in connection with any other
services offered as a package"

ployes' pay checks.
The Government will auto

checks of all other Federal
workers whether enrolled in
either of the two Government
wide plans or in comprehen-
sive medical plans such as

But the Controller General
said agencies would not deduct
premiums in connection with
life insurance (other than the
Government employe life in
Surance program) or automo-
bile and accident insurance.
