Sinr.e the last fatal accident there two weeks ago, the state has installed a now steel guard rail between the curve and the bridge, part of which shows in this photo, and has re surfaced much oj that section of the highway to raise the outside of the road(ac"d to the super) in an effort to help drivers stay on the highway and stop the many serious accidents at this point. The resurfacing was being done at the time this picture was taken, which accounts for the truck being parked on the wrong side of the highway.

Half of County's Social Security Payments Returned Retired workers and their de pendents in Morrow county were getting about 49 of the $4,829. 00 in old-age and survivors insur ance payments being made monthly in the county at the end of last year, Vernon A. weto, manager of the La Grande social security office, reported today. Beneficiaries of all groups on the rolls in December totalled 122 in Morrow county, he said. This is an increase of 40 over the number of beneficiaries in this county in the same month of 152. In making this announcement, Weln released newly available figures showing the number ot persons in the several benefic iary groups in the county and the total in benefits being paid. In December, 70 retired workers received a total of $3,302.00; 18 aged wives and department wid owers got $421.00; a total of $810. 00 went to 25 children, including a few children of retired aged workers. The total in monthly benefit amounts paid in Morrow county increased $l,318.fa0 in tne 12-month period. Retired insured workers con tinued to be the largest group of beneficiaries. These are persons age 65 or over who qualified for monthly payments through em ployment or self-employment covered by the Social Security law. Children of deceased insured workers made up the greater number of survivors insurance beneficiaries, Welo said. The second largest group of survivor beneficiaries, according to Welo. was made up of widows of de ceased workers with minor ctiuci ren also entitled to benefit pay ments in their care. In such cases, the age of the widow is not a consideration in eligibility for survivors payments.
