BOARD
URGES
ADDITIONS
TO
SECURITY LIST
;' The social security boards
recommendations that old age
and survivors insurance be ex
tended to all gainfully employed
American workers, that imme
diate action be taKen to proieci
the insurance rights of members
of the armed lorces, ana inai
disability insurance be added to
the federal insurance system,
will help solve many of the
needs met in the southern Ore
gon area, said Charles Li. magin
nis, manager of the social se
curity board's Klamath Falls of
fice today.
These proposals were among
the highlights of the board's re
port which is made annually to
congress, under terms of the so
cial security act.
"People of this area who do
not have social security insur
ance protection would get it if
the board's recommendations
become law," Maginnis said.
"Businessmen often express
their desire for coverage similar
in what their employees already
have. The fact that the self-em
ployed are not covered nits tne
roiessionai man, me smaii uusi
..nessman. and the farmer, be-
i-cause corporation executives, as
"'employees, already have this
"protection. This desire for in
surance to provide a retirement
"income, or a family income in
case the worker dies, extends
valso to farm people, domestic
workers in private homes, em-
Jployees of non-profit organiza
itions, and Public employees,
none of whom are covered at
present, Maginnis said.
The oresent lack of protec-
tion of the insurance rights of
JJmen and women in the armed
forces, is a cause of distress
among their families, the local
manaeer added.
The social security board is
recommending the addition of
disability insurance to the old
age and survivors ' insurance
system on the principle that a
worker's family is just as Daoiy
off, or worse, when he is dis
oabled as when he is too old to
?work or when he dies.
In exDlainine its recommenda
tion for disability insurance, the
"board, according to Maginnis,
.pointed out that an average of
seven million persons in the
"United States are sick or dis-
.abled on an. average day, that
the annual wage loss from tnese
raiispfi is from threp to four bil-
Jlion dollars, and the annual loss
of time from work runs between
" 14 and 3 1-3 million man hours,

Run on Coffee Seen
Briefly in Portland
PORTLAND. Jan. 31 7P
Prediction by a national radio
commentator Sunday that cof
fee will go back on the ration
list was partially blamed todav
for a heavy run on coffee in a
few stores here.
But one merchant swamned
with coffee buyers noticed an
other cause. His sign "coffee is
not rationed" had been jarred
accidentally, and only the word
rationed snowed.
Retailers were not alarmed
over the brief scare.
