So Million Job
AtBowieGiiVen
Westinghouse

Westinghouse Electric Corp.
and William J. Levitt of Levitt
& Sons today signed a con-
tract for Sc million involving
air-conditioning equipment and
appliances for 4,500 homes to
be constructed in Belair, the
new housing development at
Bowie, Md. Every house in the
project will be air conditioned.
Signing for Westinghouse
was Chris J. Whiting, vice pres
ident in charge of the con-
Sumer products group, and Will
liam j. Levitt of Levittown,
N. j., president of Levitt &
Sons.
1t was believed to be the
largest such package contract
ever signed and perhaps the
first to cover a large suburban
community.
Each house will have its own
air-conditioning unit, with
range, refrigerator, washer
dryer, dishwasher and garbage
disposal units also included in
the contract. There will be
seven styles of houses built.
Belair is being built on the
woodward estate between
Washington and Baltimore
The first exhibit home will be
open for public inspection Sat
urday, October 8.
The contract calls for more
than 10000 appliances-the
equivalent of a freight trair
2i2 miles long.

FSLIC Now Insures
4,044 Associations

The Federal Savings g. Loan
Insurance Corp. had 4,044
member associations with
around $64 billion of assets
at the close of its fiscal year
June 80, compared with 1886
member associations and S55.7
billion of assets year earlier,
the annual report revealed
today.
In 1885, the FSLIC had 858
members with $3.50 million of
assets. These grew to 2,471
members and $5.5 billion in
1945 and 3,472 members and
$31.5 billion in 1865.
The steady growth reflects
the increasing acceptance of
Federal insurance as a needed
precaution for savers. All 81
member associations of the
District Savings and Loan
League are members of the
FSLIC.
The latest report showed
corporation members had SIS
billion of savings belonging to
26 million savers on June 80
VS.. $48.1 billion belonging to
23.1 million savers on the same
1859 date.

Poy-os-You-Look Art Collecting
Takes on q Rosy-Hued Future
BY BARNARD LETTER
Star stan Writer

Washington has perhaps the
youngest serious art collector
in the land-and he's far from
affluent.
He's 16 and does his collect
ing on the installment plan.
1t all began when he saw a
painting he liked in a George
town gallery but couldn't buy
it outright. He made an agree
ment to pay so much a week
out of his allowance.
This young man is one of
hundreds here - government
girls, young married couples,
bachelors, business and pro-
feSSional men - who have
joined the ranks of installment
plan art collectors in recent
years. It's a trend.
Art collecting here as we'll
as all over the United States
has developed into a tremen-
dous business in the last few
years." said Henri Dora, as
sistant director of the Corcoran
Gallery of Art.
To help prove his point, he
cited the sales at the Corco-
rams annual Area Artist Show
which were three times higher
in 1859 than they were in 1858.
Gallery Sales Increase
Sales at the last biannual
show at the Corcoran Gallery
also showed an increase.
I'VE handle the direct sales,
those in which the person
wants to pay the full price on
the spot, and the artists them
selves generally handle the in
stallment plan saleS," he said.
Mr.. Dora feels the time
payment system has had a
great deal to do with increased
art sales.
People are buying paintings
today who never would have
thought of buying them a few
years back, he said. "Of course,
time payments isn't the chief
reason, that just makes it
easier for them.
For the first time, America
is standing on its own feet
artistically."
U. S. Artists Gaining
American artists are gaining
widespread acceptance from a
public which in the past has

The operators of practically

benefits because of this change
many Of these are needy
wives, widows, dependent hus-
bands, widowers already at or
beyond retirement age.
AS an illustration. If you're
reaching retirement age (65
for men. 81 for womenD this
year, you need only about 3
years of work under social
security instead of the AZ to
5 years required by the old law
to get benefits. If you're reach
ing retirement age next year,
you will need to have worked
under social security only
about 314 years instead of to
5A years.
If you're the survivor of a
worker who died after June
1854. and you were not eligible
for benefits under the old law,
you may now be eligible be-
cause of the reduced work
requirements.
The minimum required for
benefits remains 11a years of
work under social security, but
the key point is that it will be
easier to qualify for a pension
now and huge numbers who
have failed to qualify in the
past now can meet the re-
quirements.
First payments to those
newly eligible as a result of the
above change will be made for
the month of october.
Aid to Survivors,
Another change in the 1860
law doesn't affect so many peo-
pie, but as my informant put
it. This one tugs at the heart
strings. While only tens instead
of hundreds of thousands may
be helped, we know we won't
reach these without publicity"
Specifically, the law now
says that the widow or de-
pendent parent or disabled
adult child of a worker who
died between March 1888 and
January 1910 may now get
benefits - provided he worked
for at least 11a years under
social security before his death.
Until the 1860 amendment,
an oversight in the law denied
these people benefits. If you
think you qualify or know
someone who may, call, write
or visit your nearest social
security Office at once to in
quire. Ask questions, find out
your rights!
Tomorrow: You can earn
more and not lose benefits now.

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
Social Security Law Chonges-H
BY SYLVIA PORTER

Last year, shortly before her
62d birthday, a woman called
at her local social security Of
flee to apply for widows bene-
fits. She reported her husband
had died in 1857 after a long
illness and she submitted his
social security card to prove
her claim. But on checking her
husbands account the social
security office found that at the
time of his death her husband
had worked only 2la years un-
der social security-less than
the 8 years Of work required
under the law then to make
her eligible for widows benefits.
The social security law has
now been changed so that this
widows husband would be con-
sidered as fully insured at the
7 time of his death and she can
qualify for widows benefits as
of today.
IF this widow will only ap-
ply again, we can start her
benefits Immediately 'empha-
sized an official of the New
York social security Office.
There are hundreds of thou
sands who have failed to quail
ify for benefits in the past be-
cause they didn't have enough
work under social security who
will qualify under the 1860
amended law. But we fear they
don't know the law has been
changed. There has been so
little publicity about what has
been done thi year by
Congress.
Easier to Qualify
The 1860 law reduces by
about one-third the length OF
time a person has to work un-
der social security to become
insured and to become eligible
for payments to himself and
his family. Instead of needing
two calendar quarters of work
for every four quarters since
1850, you now need only one
for every three work quarters.
Around 100000 persons will
become eligible at once for cash

avenue NV.
WED much rather the buyer
take the piece of art home on

live with it before the decision
is final"
The system used at this gal
lery is typical of most in the
city: The customer pays 10 per
cent Of the purchase price
down as the first months rent
on the painting. If he decides
to keep it, that money is applied
to the purchase price. The
remainder is paid out in nine
equal payments.
Since the paintings cost from
$100 to $500 on an average,
the monthly payments aren't
exorbitant. Some galleries
arrange longer terms in the
case of more expensive paint
ingS.

ness nine years and "just made
