Old Age Benefits
Are Not Taxable

The question is often asked
how are Social Security Benefit
Payments treated for Federal IN
come tax purposes? Are they tax
able and do they have to be taken
into account in determining the
support of dependent? From the
Internal Revenue Service comes
this explanation.
Social Security Old Age Benefit
Payments are not taxable. Wilson
B. Wood, Director of Internal
Revenue for the Arizona District,
advised. Since they are not tax
able, a person is not required to
report them on his tax return, but
Social Security Benefits must be
taken into account in computing
retirement income credit and also
in determining claim for a de-
pendency exemption.
When an Individual receives So
cial Security Benefits which are
insufficient for his support, Mr..
Wood added, your contributions
will entitle you to claim him as a
dependent only if your contributions
exceed half of the total support he
requires for the year.
Whatever the source of income
used for support, it must be taken
into account even though it is not
taxable income.

Government Publishes Booklet
On Survival OF NucIear Fa|Iout

The most dangerous fallout, of
the heavy particles of debris comes
in the early phases. These particles
are large enough to be seen
about the size of table salt or sand.
The thing to do, the booklet en-
phasizes. is to get into some kind
of structures into which the fall
out particles cannot penetrate
and stay there, with only swift
excursions outside, for as much as
two weeks.
It scotches hope about some 9TH
er methods discussed. Special cloth
ing would provide little protection
because radiation from the part
icles aSwould pass through the
fabric.
And although many expert
ments have been conducted" the
booklet says there is little likeli-
hood that a pill or any other type
of medicine will be developed that
can protect people from the effects
of fallout radiation. !"
The federal government favors
community shelters, although
agreeing that personal preference
or conditions in rural areas make
necessary some f a mily type
shelters.
Community shelters can be
built into new structures without
great extra cost; they can be con-
structed underground with the sur
face left for civic property, play
grounds or other purposes. But,
the booklet advises, existing build
ings, even without change, can at
ford considerable protection again

Civil Rights Meeting Is Held

Washington, D. C. - The Com
mission on Civil Rights announced
that it will hold a one-day hearing
in Phoenix on Saturday, February
8, to asses the status of civil rights.
The Commission is an independ-
ent bipartisan fact-finding agency
by Congress in 1857.
According to Berl l. Bernhard,
Commission Staff Director, the
Phoenix hearing is part Of a long
range project which includes the
study of civil rights of minorities
in a diverse group of urban centers.
The Commissions past studies
in the fields Of voting, public ed
ucation, housing, employment, and
the administration of justice show
these areas are so closely con-
nected that they are best studied
in relationship to each other
Cities to which minorities con-
tinde to migrate provide a good
context for the conduct of a study.
Phoenix was chosen, Mr.. Bern
hard said, because of its tremend-
Gus growth and the diversity of
its minority groups. Phoenix also
one category of city
to be; studied; city where there
are few, if any, civil rights laws
and where progress nonetheless
has repeatedly been made.
Mr.. Bernhard emphasized that
Arizona sun., 1962-01-11

the Commission is not going to
Phoenix in response to complaints
but to gather facts with which to
assert the current status of civil
rights.
AS in its past hearings, the Com
mission expects to hear testimony
concerning civil rights problems.
1t also expects to learn of the
steps that have been taken in
Phoenix to meet these problems.
The Commission has held
hearings in the past four years in
such diverse cities as New York,
Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, New Or
leans, Montgomery. Los Angeles
and San Francisco.
The Commissions duties as de-
fined by Congress are:
Cd To investigate complaints re-
garding deprivations of the right
to vote;
(2) To study and collect infor-
nation concerning legal develop
ments constituting a denial of
equal protection of the laws under
the Constitution, and,
CD To appraise the laws and
policies of the Federal Govern
ment with respect to equal pro-
lection of the laws under the Con-
stitution.

Serigo Says America
Is Losing World

An audience at Madison College
was told by Danforth Foundation
lecturer that race prejudice in
America can cause us to lose the
world-and we are losing it.
Lisa Serigo spoke at the Harris
burg, Va. Campus, pointed out
that there are 700 million people
in the world who are neither Com
munist nor Capitalist and I'VE
cannot win these people to our
side as long as we discriminate
against the Negro in our own Coun-
try.
''If we can't live equality, we'll
lose, the prominent lecturer added.
If we don't really believe tina all
men are created equal we should

The government published its
grim booklet telling citizens how
TO survive the deadly dew of fall
out = with foreword saying mil
lions would die under nuclear at
tack but other millions could be
saved.
Secretary of Defense Robert S.
T. E. Mcnamara in a Introductory
statement, said the 45-page, pocket
size handbook is designed ito give
the American people the facts
they need to know about the dan
gers of thermonuclear attack and
what they can do to protect them
selves
The booklet under preparation
by Defense Department civil de-
fense experts for months, went
into distribution last week passed
out by hundreds of post o fl C e S
and state and local defense Of
fices.
The Pentagon estimates the
total cost of printing and distri-
button at $825, 900 or about 8 cents
per copy.
The aim of the booklet is to ad-
wise how to survive the radioactive
aftermath of nuclear attack. No
hope is held out for those who
happen to be within the range of
the blast, heat and initial radia-
ton of the fusion bomb.
Destruction of every structure
on the surface within the blast
area, combined with the fire
creating heat rays and the quick
killing gamma rays and neutrons,
probably would wipe out life, the
booklet says.
AS it did in an announcement
earlier this month on the incentive
payment plan for helping with con-
struction of fallout shelters, the
Defense Department again dis
counts the probability of nuclear
attack.
The foreign and defense policies
of your government make such
an attack highly unlikely is their
most important aim." says the
booklets preamble. However
should nuclear attack ever oc-
cur, certain preparations could
mean the difference between life
and death for you."
The booklet = entitled Fall
out Protection, What to Know and
Do About Nuclear Attack ex-
plains in non-technical language
and with the aid of drawings the
basics of nuclear weapons effects,
of fallout and of the types and
manner of constructing and living
in community or family fallout
shelters.
For purposes of the discussion,
the booklet assumes the use of a
five m G cations tn e
equivalent of energy yielded in the
explosion of five million tons of
conventional TINT.
A 5-megation burstat ground
leve, the booklet says, would de-
stroy most buildings up to two
miles from the burst; heat rays
would kill Unprotected people up
to 10 miles away, and ''the areas
of blast and fire would be scenes
of havoc, devastation and death"
Where lives could be saved would
be among the people who happen
ed to live outside the instantan
OuSly lethal area Of the explosion
but still in areas of drifting radio
activity.
The major radiation danger
would occur within a 24-hour period
following detonation. In half an
hour, the first portion would reach
a zone about five miles away; 20
miles away, people would have
nearly an hour to get into fallout
shelters; 100 miles away, the time
might be four to six hours. Much
would depend on the wind.
