SOCIAL SECURITY CLAIMS
SHOULD BE FILED. EARLY
"It makes no difference if you
have one dollar or a million."
Vernon A. Welo, manager of the
La Grande office of the Social Se
curity administration, said today,
when you reach 65 or over and
quit work, if you qualify for
federal old-age retirement insur-
nee under the provisions of the
Social Security act, you'll be
paid."
The president of a large organ
ization and the office boy both
pay social security taxes on their
salaries. Naturally they are both
interested in receiving a return
on their investments. Of course,
each must have worked long en
ough in employment under social
security to meet the requirements
or payments will not be made at
65 or later.
Old-Age and Survivors insur
ance is primarily an insurance
system," the administration offi
cial said, "and retirement pay
ments are based on income earn
ed in jobs covered by the Social
Security act."
Mr. Welo stressed the fact that
wage earners who reach the age
of 65, and the survivors of wage
earners who die at any age,
should contact the office at Ob
server Building, La Grande, Ore
gon, without delay. He painted
gon. without delay. He pointed
because of their failure to contact
a Social Security administration
field office, and others are now-
losing this insurance because
thev still delay filing their
claims.

EX-CI.'S RECEIVING SU
POUCIES THROUGH MAIL
Kx-GI's of this area have start
ed receiving National Service Life
Insurance policies in the mail
from the Veterans Administration
district office in Seattle, Charles
M. Cox, VA representative at Pen
dleton, announced today.
The new policies are being is
sued on GI Insurance which has
been renewed for a second term
or has been converted to a per
manent plan, Cox explained. Un
til a veteran renews or converts,
the certificate that was issued on
his original term insurance will
remain in effect.
"Many veterans are asking why
the new GI policies do not show
the names of beneficiaries or me
thod of settlement," the VA aide
stated. "Designation of benefi
ciaries and settlements is con
tained in the veteran's insurance
files kept by the VA.
"The insured may change or
confirm either of these at any
time, simply by submitting the
proper form or a letter with full
details. He does not have to send
in his policy."
Veterans who are not sure their
records are up-to-date should
check through the Pendleton of
fice or write directly to the VA
insurance center in Seattle, Cox
advised.
No action is required of in
sured veterans to obtain the new
policies, he added.
EDUCATION VS. COMMUNISM
It is fair to say that the local
millage released by additional
state aid for schools would TEND
to keep property taxes from ex
ceeding present levels, although
in most communities the slack
would be absorbed to meet school
building programs or city or
county needs.
We do not think the Legisla
ture should overlook the fact that
school aid is one of the most log
ical places to apply property re-lie-f
because: Schools have no
power to tap any other local
source of revenue and cities and
counties are now being cramped
because of the large proportion ol
local property tax which must go
to schools.
However, the property tax re
duction or release argument is
NOT the most important argu
ment for this bill. The most Im
portant argument is SCHOOL
needs which have come' with in
creasing population. At $95 per
child state support we shall still
be far behind Washington which
supplies $125 and California $110
state support per census child.
"But haven t we developed a
champagne appetite on a beer
pocketbook?"
These are times when we can
not afford inferior schools or In
ferior TEACHERS. If you are wor
ried about advancing socialism
or the next war or the atomic
bomb, then you'd bo wise to DE
MAND better schools and BET
TER TEACHERS. These children
who are pouring into Oregon
schools will be the VOTERS of
tomorrow and they will carry on
the world-wide duel of ideas.
Communism cannot live whore
democracy is really understood.

WOW!
French
Reviews the
Legislature
Legislators pay little attention
to the end of the period of pay
and seem to work on at about the
same rate of speed whether paid
or not.
About the sixth or seventh
week of the session, however,
some of the bipger legislation be
gins to be decided upon. The last
week saw the house pass some
tax bills and the increase in the
school fund and the highway
bills will be out by the time this
is read.
Increases in workmen's com
pensation benefits have been
made by the house, about 2'i
percent and labor and manage
ment have agreed on unemploy
ment compensation changes al
though the committees still must
pass on it.
The house approved diversion
of the excise tax to the general
fund for two years and passed a
resolution letting the people vote
on a measure to remove the right
of the state to levy a tax on pro
perty. Other changes proposed are
not important and, in fact, the
state would have gotten along
well had there not been a tax
committee at all. Then the peo
ple would have retained their
right to pass upon the expendi
ture of excise and income taxes.
The school lobby put the $30
increase across although at least
two legislators said they were
voting against their better judg
ment and in deference to the
large number of letters received
from school people. It is estimat
ed that less than 20 of the 60
house members voted for the bill
with a clear conscience.
The additional $30 will be paid
out on a day's membership basis.
That means that rural areas will
he more seriously hurt than be
fore when something was paid
for teachers and for transporta
tion.
When the bill falls on property
the burden will be heavy indeed
on farms and it is likely that
it will be a property tax the very
first year, especially if there is
diversion of excise andor Income
tax funds.
Stockmen will have a new
brand law which will make It
cost more to record a brand but
will assure some improvement.
They will also find many changes
In the gasoline cowboy law about
shipping cattle and an estray law
was passed which simplifies lo
some extent the method of taking
up stock running at large.
Morrow county will soon have
a law setting up a hospital board
to manage its new hospital for
which money has been raised.
Gilliam and Wheeler counties
may have a new board of man
agement of their county high
schools If the senate follows the
action of the house. County offi
cers will all have their salaries
raised probably and some of
them very generously, Legislators
seldom exercise any supervision j
over county salaries and the com
mittees usually insist that coun
ty courts and budget committees
approve salary scales. The re
sponsibility is therefore local
and that is where it should be.
When a school board from Ben
ton county came in to protest over
a bill limiting the period a dis
trict could be suspended it gave
rise to a question about why dis
tricts must be contiguous to be
consolidated. This district want
ed to consolidate with Corvallis
but couldn't. So a bill was written
to remove the "contiguous" be
cause no one could think of a
reason for keeping it. So maybe
another limiting factor will be
removed from the statute books.
There is talk of imposing an
other cent of gas tax for the ben
efit of county roads. Unless a
different method of distribution
is used than the present one it
will be highly unfair to eastern
Oregon and Multnomah county
will get a big slice of the money
and with minor damage to rural
roads. There seems a chance for
a different distribution system,
either the one proposed by 22nd
district legislators, or the one
proposed by the engineers. Either
will help.
I feel so good this morning I can
scarcely realize I was sick with a
