- AT 'AtHE' :'
Washington, D. C, Dec. 28. Start
ing Monday, January 1, Uncle Sam
will begin making monthly pay
ments to holders of social security
cards who have attained the age of
5 years. There is no government
pension (benefits range from $10 to
$85 a month) but has been bought
and paid for by card holders, one
percent of their wages having been
deducted toward the fund, and a
similar amount contributed by the
employer. But to draw these bene
fits the card holder must retire, go
fishing or do anything but continue
working for wages.
, No benefits will go to the" thous
ands of fishermen of the Pacific
Northwest nor to agricultural labor,
nor to people in domestic service.
None of these are eligible under
the act, at present. However, a maid
in a private home is covered by the
act if she goes to work in a hotel
or dining room. A cook in a log
ging camp is covered but not if he
cooks for harvesters on a farm
Excluded, also, are the cowboys and
sheepherders on the rangelands of
the Pacific Northwest. Only last
summer was the act amended to
include bank employes.
If you work for the government,
federal or state, you cannot draw
social security monthly benefits.
Railroaders are not included; they
have their own provision, the rail
road retirement act.
In the congressional session open'
ing January 3 considerable legisla
tion will be considered of primary
interest to the Pacific Northwest,
affecting practically every nook and
corner of both Oregon and Wash
ington. There will be, of course, a
heavy appropriation for Grand Cou
lee for the fiscal year 1941, begin
ning next July 1. Congress will be
requested for money to install more
generators at Bonneville. There will
be an appropriation to take further
steps in the Willamette Valley pro
ject with its myriad of dams on
Willamette and tributaries for flood
control.
Another attempt will be made to
have congress authorize construc
tion of a navigation dam at Uma
tilla rapids, on Columbia river.
Funds will be requested to drain the
sump in Tule lake into Klamath
lake as a combined project of the
reclamation service and the biolog
ical survey.
Peeler log legislation, which has
passed one house, will come up for
a vote in the other branch of con
gress. This is a proposal to prevent
exportation of peeler logs to Japan,
in particular. The measure is back
ed by coast counties, chiefly. For
the new-building airplane base at
Tongue Point additional funds are
expected.
Vigorous fight will be made by
the delegations of the two north
western states against extension of
the reciprocal trade agreement act,
which expires June 12, as under the
various trade agreements Washing
ton and Oregon have suffered ma
terially. Treaties have permitted
invasion of domestic markets by
foreigners competing with many of
the products grown in the two
states. '

Farm Security Arministration will
urge funds with which to increase
the number of migratory labor
camps in both Oregon and Wash
ington. Legislation will be offered
proposing the federal government
make substantial contribution to-
wara maintenance ana expansion
of municipal airports. There is a
possibility of two reclamation pro
jects in eastern Oregon being fav
orably reported. Four more coun
ties in each of the two states will
be included in the tenant and share
cropper program, enabling eligibles
to buy farms under the Bankhead
act
A possible recommendation by the
president for construction of mili
tary highways nmproving Pacific
and Columbia highways for the pur
pose as part of national defense and
a specific appropriation for the pur
pose. It is in Mr. Roosevelt's mind,
has been for months.
A plan for parity payments thru
use of certificates issued to employ
ing farmers, processors to purchase
these certificates,' thus furnishing
the funds for parity, and the proces
sors being reimbursed by passing
the processing tax on to the con
sumers, unless the tax is so small
that it cannot very well be added
to the price of a loaf of bread.
Important to employers and un
ions, amendments to the Wagner la
bor act, and restrictions on NLRB
are inevitable, but the nature of
the amendments will not be known
until recommendations are made by
the house committee now conduct
ing an investigation. Amendments,
also, to the wage-hour act which
has caused many complaints in the
rural areas.
Large appropriations will be made
for the army and navy establish
ments in the Puget Sound country.
Additional hundreds of students at
colleges and universities will be giv
en an opportunity to be instructed
in aviation; non-college youths will
be sponsored by commercial clubs.
Congress will authorize increased
personnel for the army, navy and
marine corps; both states will be
lirirpd to increase their national
guard.
Such are some of the high lights
of legislation to be expected in the
session (the president wants a short
session, adjourning in May, if pos7
sible), touching on the economic
conditions and problems of the nor
thwest.-
