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. o CARD OF THANKS I wish to thank my friends for their many remembrances in the form of cards, letters, flowers and other expressions of cheer during my stay in the hospital.

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.

IIMIItlll tlllllllllMII There's plenty of good, wholesome food at every "chow down" period for Naval Aviation Cadets In training at Pensacola Naval Air Station and seconds are always in order. Pensacola Naval Air Station, the "Annapolis of the Air," is the focus of the recently reactivated Naval Aviation Cadet training program, which is open to healthy, single young men between 18 and 25, with at least two years of college. Upon graduation they are commissioned en signs In the Naval Keserve, or second lieutenants in the Marine Corps Reserve, are awarded their wings and assigned to two years' active duty. (OBciti Hirj ptotoirtpb) 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.
