THE VALUE OF CALCIUM m lontributlng cause of the com n nutritional deficiency In Idren, growing youths, young and mature aa ults remem ber what Sher man said no, no, no, not Gen. Wm.

Hence the lnary mixed diet of Amer ls and Europeans, at least jng dwellers In cities and ns. Is probably more often icient In calcium than In any ?r chemical element." lontributine to this calcium iciency In childhood, youth, ly, middle and mature adult , Is the combination of hab customs, circumstances and essions which nl one way mother discourage, forbid or vent exposure to sunshine or shine. Such exposure to dl ; or diffuse sunlight Is the ural wav for the body to lufacture vitamin D, and vl in D is essential for the nor- assimilation. utilization and mtion of calcium (and phos rus). So it Is necessary not r to Include plenty of milk milk products) and green leaf etables In the dally diet, but jxpose the body to sunllRht daylight, or else take as a plement to the diet a good y ration of vitamin D, to in s normal calcium metabol- or utilization. slda from prevention or re- min D maintains the balance be tween calcium and phosphorus in the formation of normal bones and teeth and protection against dental caries (decay of teeth), an adequate daily lniaKe of calcium and vitamin D, at least In my opinion, prevents or relieves a great many of the vague disabilities which suffer ers commonly call 'chronic rheu matism." Indeed this is precise ly what I recommend in the pamphlet "Calcium and Rheuma tiz" which you may have on re quest (a clipping Is not a request) if you Inclose a stamped cnvel ODe bearing your address. Mind, though, this Is not a cure-all for joint diseases. If It pecms at all Inconsistent to ascribe to calcium and vita min D such Influence on bones, teeth, muscles and nerves or on ailments involving such widely different tissues or structures, don't let it worry you. We haven't told you the half of lt calcium and vitamin D have great Influence on the coagula bility or clotting time of the blood and on the force of the heartbeat and one with calcium and vitamin D deficiency is more likely to bleed excessively from mir.or wounds and to have poor circulation because of weakne-w of heart action.

If! !U.R In two roll call votes, the house todny refused to yield to senate demands for Inclusion of travel pay for discharged wur workers and unemployment compensa tion for federal employes in the George reconversion bill. It Instructed house conferees to Insist on striking out both provisions the two mnjor points of difference which had deadlocked the measure in con ference. Tlfo vote to reject unemploy ment compensation for federal employes was 174 to 156. Klamath Falls. With "gocial security" benefit rolls Just past the million mark, Charles L. Maginnis, manager of the Klam ath Falls field office of the gocial security board asserted that his office is handling a greatly In creased work-load in all old-age and survivors insurance activi ties and makes 857 monthly pay ments totaling $15,203.98 a month. Maginnis" office serves Jeffer son, Deschutes, Klamath, Jack son, Crook and Lake counties in Oregon and Modoc county In California. The monthly benefits In the Klamath Falls office area are distributed as follows: 401 re tired workers, age 65 or over, receiving $8,982.54 a month; 93 wives, age 65 or over, of retired woriters, receiving $1,059.88 a month; 29 young widows with children under 18, receiving $006.27 a month; 245 children of deceased or retired workers, re ceiving $2,929.06 a month; 81 widows, 65 or over, of Insured workers, receiving $1,520.93 month. Monthy benefits are paid also to aged dependent parents of fully insured workers who leave no wife or child. Benefits to young widows with children are of especial im portance In keeping families to gether when the father dies. Hop Harrigan. Miginnis said. "They give the citizens of tomorrow the chance to grow up in normal home sur roundings, with a mother's care," he added. "Without them, many homes would be broken up and the children separated from their mothers and their brothers and sisters. They supplement life in surance or savings, and the mother can take a Job without sacrificing the monthly pay ments to the children, though she does give up her benefits for each month in which she earns more than $14.99 in cov ered employment. "Though most mothers prefer to remain with their children while they are young, some find it necessary to supplement social security wllh earnings. The mother, of course, can go off and on the benefit rolls as often as necessary, insofar, as working or not working, is concerned. She usually will make more in covered employment than her I benefit amount and, if she works in noncovered employment, she stays on the benefit rolls while working." Wives Also Benefit value of this federal Insurance ' of the many Important functions program. Benefit payments In the na tion have passed an annual rate of $220,000,000 and the volume will increase steadily as more workers die or grow old and re tire. Every field office of the so cial security board Is glad to give full advice and necessary assistance to every person who thinks he or she may be eligible to receive benefits, Maginnis said, and he urged anyone who is in doubt to inquire at the nearest office of the board. Two events, particularly. should suggest an immediate contact with the social security office, the manager said. These arei when a worker who has been employed in private in dustry or commerce reaches age 65, whether or not he plans to retire, and when any member of the family dies after working in private industry or commerce. "Families who follow that ad vice will play safe and not risk the loss of any benefits that may be coming to them," Maginnis said.

Every work er In business or industry needs a social security account number card, and the field office issues these at a rate of approximately 9000 a year. The field office also obtains duplicate cards for those workers who lose them. The field office helps any worker to check up on his wage record on which benefits de pend largely and if there are any omissions or errors, assists in obtaining corrections. . Every social security office considers it a serious responsi bility to give information, advice and assistance to employers, who must make quarterly reports of the wages paid to every worker under that worker s name ana correct account number, and to workers and their families who are concerned about their rights and responsibilities.
