Social Security
CHANGES IN YOUR
SOCIAL SECURITY

In my first article on the new
amendments to the social security
law, | described the provision which
gives men the option to retire be-
tween 62 and 65 with reduced ben
efits.
In today's article, want to cover
/ another important change in the
law-the one which reduces the
length of time person needs to
have worked under social security
to get retirement benefits for him
self or to qualify his family fer
survivors benefits in case of his
death
Some 100000 older people will
become eligible for cash benefits
because of this change in the law
older men and women workers,
their wives or dependent husbands
and the widows, dependent widow
ers and aged dependent parents of
| workers who have died. First pay
ments to newly eligible persons
can be made for the month of Au-
gust.
Under the new law, a man reach
ing IS, or a woman reaching 90,
! this year will need social security
credit for only 212 years of work
, under social security, instead of
the previous requirement of ga
years. A man who reached IS, or
; woman who reached 50, before
| 1858 needs, only a year and half
of work under social security to
be eligible for social security re-
! tirement benefits.
. The survivors of workers who
, died before 1858 may also become
| eligible for benefits under this
change in the law if the worker
before his death had earned social
! security credit for at least a year
I and half.
: should point cut that credit for
work under social security is count
ed in three-month calendar quor-
/ ters." Therefore, a person need
! not have worked for a continuous
Period of 2l2 or 112 years, as the
case may be- Social security credit
for calendar quarters earned at any
! time since 1886 can be counted to-
ward the amount of work he needs
| to get retirement benefits for him
self or to qualify his family for
dependents or survivors benefits.
, If you believe that you or some
one in your family may now be
: eligible for benefits because of this
change in the law, get in touch

Greet your neighbor with a smile
And offer him your hand;
Should misfortune trip him,
Reach down and help him stand.
Turn him not deaf ear
Because to your "yes" he says "no"
Beliefs are proven wrong each day
And yours may be, too, you know.
Slap the faltering on the back

For your own sunny sky today
Tomorrow may be filled with rain.
Scatter your seeds of kindness

And whether they grow or rot away

promptly.
You may have inquired soon af-
ter the law was changed by Con-
gress in September 1850. But do
so again; this is a new change
that makes it possible for people
to get benefits with even less credit
for work covered by social security.
AS before, however, no one can
become entitled to benefits with
total of less than a year and half
of work in employment or self
employment covered by social Sc
curity.
Your social security office in
Jackson is located at 43l North

1t is possible to hope that
Mr.. Khrushchev is beginning
to feel the storm of protest
which is building up in the
non-Communist world. So far,
the Soviet Union and most of
its satellites have not been
told either about the new
explosion or the reaction out

Even the self-centered neu-
tralist nations as represented
at the United Nations are
beginning to rouse themselves
to the nuclear threat. But
their time is short II the
Soviet Premier hews to his

His strategy OF terror is
not a new conception, it is
only more awesome than
Hitler's. particularly because
it viciously penalties children

The President continues to
set an admirable example Of

any occasion which might
provoke him into unguarded

Effect of Steel Industry Pay Rise

What could Uncle Sam do
with S1.8 billion? All expenses
could be paid for the opera
tions of Congress, the Ex-
ecutive Offices, the Com
merce Department, the In
terror Department, the JUS
tice Department, and the
whole judiciary system.
But worse than all this
loss in Federal taxes is the
impact which the new wage
costs would have upon the
future of American business
expansion. Internal corporate
funds for investment would
drop from 1903 billion in
1860 to $28.1 billion unless
stockholders we're to accept
a cut in the wages of their
money. usually called "divi-
dends." If anything like that
happened, it would mean that
companies would have a hard
time raising money for ex-
pansion except at very high
interest rates, and this in
turn would cost Uncle Sam
more in tax receipts because
interest payments are a de-
ductible item on taxes.
II investment funds ere to
be diminished, the chances
of increasing employment in
America will be reduced con-
siderably. Growth" and
steadily increasing national
output would become a myth.
Meanwhile, Western Europe's
rate of growth far exceeds
the American rate Of the last
10 years.
The truth is that the eco
nomic system of this country
cannot absorb these extensive
increases in wage costs and
still accumulate enough prof
its to buy the desired amount
of new plant and equipment.
That's why the heavy-goods
industries, which are today
the source Of so much unem-
ployment. have been hurt in
recent months. That's why
business is worried. For labor
union leaders show no signs

a drastic revision Of the vo-
cational training and place
ment programs in high
schools.
There is no way to obscure
the fact Though many are
trying that American sec
ondary education is well into
what is a prolonged crisis.
Money will help. But it is not
enough.
In 1865 there were just
barely II million Americans
aged Is to 19 years. In 1858
the total was well over IL
million. Then we began to
receive the impetus from the
postwar baby boom. The
Bureau of Census estimates
that by 1865. just a little
more than three years away.
there will be more than II
million Americans between
Is and 10. BY 1910, a bit
more than eight years ahead,
the total will be near 20 mil
lion. This is not guess work.
The range Of jobs for
young people 19 and under
is steadily declining. Auto
nation and the swift de-
cline Of the family farm are
increasing the unskilled, un-
educated population. We
must have a revision of
training and a new concept
of the demands now placed
on secondary education.
Many are new.
We will ignore the steady
pile-up of inflammable hu-
man material in our urban
centers to our civic and ma
tional peril. 1t is a national
problem, quite beyond the
scope Of individual munich
palities to handle alone.

An Allied View on Negotiations

itiate talks-even at the pres

Kennedy unwisely got him.
self into the play by receiv-
ing Mr.. Gromyko at the
White House instead Of re-
manning aloof and enigmatic.
This reporter has still to
find a single informed con-
tinental official, civilian or
military, who is not con-
vinced that conditions in the
Soviet Union, as well as in
the satellite countries, are
such that the Red dictator
would have been forced even
tually to take the first step.
And this, they say, would
have given us a great ad-
vantage.
In order to hasten the West
into demanding the talks.
Moscow dared step to the
brink and order the Pankow
government to build the Ber-
lin wall. The Kremlin made
a correct guess. Washington
and London became panicky
and urged immediate nego-
tiation. And it is this haste
which has caused much dis
agreement and confusion
among the Allied Big Four.
While Moscow never loses
sight of the ball, we don't
even know where it is.
It is difficult for these peo-
pie who are within easy range
of the Russian planes to
understand our exaggerated
anxiety over what appears to
almost every informed person
here as a gigantic Russian
bluff.
The Soviets were not pre-
pared to go to war over the
Berlin wall, said these diplo-
mats, but they felt sure you
would not guess that, par
ticularly if they started their
customary missile rattling,
which they did.
