During the past week we have
had two attempted coups in Iraq.
The second one has apparently
succeeded. Indications are that its
leaders are pro-Nasser. With
Syria seasonally wavering between
independence and Pan Arabism,
President Nasser has good reason
to hope for an expansion of his
United Arab Republic.
Any consolidation of Nasser’s
power will further aggravate their
relationship with Israel, the United
States and other powers.
Any disruption of the status quo
is bound to create problems and do
damage to the interests of other
nations, but it is hard to see how
eventual consolidation of the Arab
states wil’ fail to benefit them
and, in the long run, be beneficial
to the stability of the world as a
whole.
Turning from the Middle East,
another area almost as difficult
to generalize is the East Indies.
Formerly dominated by the Brit
ish and Dutch, it is now the pri
mary preserve of President Su
karno of Indonesia. The Republic
of Malaysia, recently formed, and
the Philippines share Indonesia’s
domination of the area.
President Sukarno has very ef
fectively played the United States
off against Russia and received
an enormous amount of material
aid and political support from
both. The Indonesians as indivi
duals have probably gained nothing
and remain in one of the most
hopeless positions of any peoples
in the world, this despite the
region’s enormous mineral wealth.
The island of Java comprises
one-fifteenth of the area of Indo
nesia, but has over half of the
population. There are over 1000
people per square mile and 55,-
000,000 people altogether on Java,
whose area is only slightly over
half that of Oregon.
Indonesia is made up of many,
many races and they speak many
languages. About 80 per cent of
the people were engaged in agri
culture, with rice the primary
diet. Except for the reduction of
ores and refining of oil, there is
no heavy industry as we know it.
The Dutch were credited by
many for a wonderful colonizing ef
fort in the Indies. Actually they
did no colonizing. They were ex
ploiting the raw materials of the

area, providing a stable govern
ment and good administration. To
the average Dutchman, life in the
Indies was a tour of duty in a hot,
sticky climate. After two or three
years, most were eager to return
to Holland.
Dutch naval personnel were
credited with 2 years towards re
tirement for each year spent in
the area.
Basically Indonesia is econom
ically complementary to both Japan
and Australia. It was the primary
goal of Japan in World War II.
The solution to the problems of
the East Indies is not in sight.
Some type of economic, followed
by political, confederation would
appear to be most desirable.
As a footnote, the submarine to
which I was attached put into Tjil-
atjap, Java in 1942 for a“quickie”
refit prior to the Battle of the
Java Sea. A gang of 17 coolies
were set aboard to help clean up
the superstructure. Their average
weight probably did not exceed 80
pounds per man. One American
seaman with one hand behind his
back could have accomplished
more than the whole lot.

QUESTION:
I thought that only women could
start their social security benefits
at age 62. Is this correct"’
ANSWER:
No. Since the 1961 Amendments
to the Social Security Act, men
as well as women can begin re
ceiving benefits at age 62. How
ever, the amount of your month
ly benefit is permanently reduced
if you take your payments before
age 65--to take account of the
longer period over which you will
be collecting them.
QUESTION:
I work as a domestic, but I am
over 65 and receiving my social
security checks each month. Should
my employer take out for social
security as long as I don’t earn
over $1200 a year?
ANSWER:
A person’s age or the fact that
she is receiving social security
payments does not affect the pay
ment of social security tax. As
long as you earn $50 or more in
a calendar quarter doing domestic
work for a single employer, your
employer is required todeductand
pay social security tax. Of course,
if you earn over $1200 per year
while receiving social security
payments, it will affect the amount
of these payments and must be re
ported to the Social Security Ad
ministration. This does not affect
the deductions made from your pay
for social security tax, however.
QUESTION:
I plan to visit my sister for three
months and wonder if I can have
my social security checks sent to
her address while I am there?
ANSWER:
Yes. Notify your social secur-
ity office in writing of your new
address and your check will be for
warded to your sister’s home.
When you return home, you should
fill out another change of address
card so your check can be sent to
your regular address.
Mrs. Rose Brook died in a nurs

She and her husband, the late Ed
Brook came to this area in 1907.
They purchased 20 acres of land
on the Haughlum road, and raised
their family. The oldest son, Jer
ome, owned the place after his
father’s passing. They built a home
on property where Mrs. Brooks
and youngest son Albert lived for
a number of years, moving to Port

Advantages of nursing career and service in Army Nurses
Corps are explained to Lorelee Washburn, Gresham high
school sophomore, by Capt. Angeline Hennek, nurse Corps
recruiter who visited Gresham last week.
(Outlook photo)
The Army Nurse Corps has
copied ideas from the ROTC pro
gram for college men to helpmeet
a severe shortage of Nurses and
the plan is working very well,
an Army nurse counselor said
during a visit to Gresham last
week.
The Army has always obtained
most of its new officers from the
ranks of the ROTC, officer cand
idates who take military training
in college and receive some pay
for it. In return they serve in the
armed forces for a certain length
of time upon graduation.
The Army Nurse Corps is find
ing out the same system, with
some changes, can help fill the
many vacant spots in their own
ranks, according to Captain An
geline Hennek.
Capt. Hennek, who travels
throughout the Northwest from her
Seattle office, told about the plan
in an interview in the office of
Gresham Army recruiter, Master
Sgt. Mel Smith.
“Girls who are taking nursing
training in a four-year college
course are eligible to join the
program at the start of their jun-
ior year,” she said. “They will
receive tuition and books plus $231
a month for room and board for
their last two years of college.
Depending on the amount of tuition
charged, this aid adds up to be
tween $8000 and $10,000. And they
are commissioned officers during
their last six month in school.’’
Girls attending a school of nurs
ing, normally a three-year course,
may join the program at the start
of the final year and their bene
fits are very similar.
“One advantage is that student
nurses signed up on the Nurse
Corps program don’t have to attend
drills such as the ROTC men do,’’
smiled the attractive recruiter.
“In return for having all their
expenses paid for the last year
or two of nursing training, the
nurses must go on active duty.
This means a three-year hitch
for two years of aid and a two-
year enlistment in exchange for a
single year’s help.
“Of course the women (and men,
toe, since last spring) who sign
up for the program must meet
fairly rigid qualifications as they’ll
be Army officers upon grad
uation,” she added.
“The authorized strength of the
Army Nurse Corps is 5500 nurses
and we are now down to about
3300,” Capt. Hennek pointed out.
“So you can see how much we
need nurses.”
On her one-day visit toGresham,
the career nurse (she’s been in the
service eight years) kept to a busy
schedule. She had a long lunch with
the nurses and doctors of the
Gresham General Hospital staff,
spoke to girls at Marycrest high
school in Parkrose and talked to
several local girls about the
college-aid plan.
Capt. Hennek, like many of the
service, has
nurses who join the
