Klamath Basin Social Security Aid Totaled ny WILIIKR WO.MKR Pislrict Manager Klamath Falls Social Security Office ; Social security old-age, surviv ors, and disability insurance ben-; cfils in Uie Klamath Basin, in cluding the Tulclake-Dorris area, now amount to $30ti,80 each inonth. 5 This new monthly figure repre fonts an increase of almost 10 per cent over the corresponding period last year. It can be at tributed to the changes in the law in recent years, as well as to the growth in our population. Monthly benefits first became payable in January, 1IM0, and they have continued without interrup tion for 2.1 years, accompanied by a steady growth in the num ber of beneficiaries. As of Dec. 31, la, some 4.3112 residents of the Basin area were collecting about $3,673,000 annually from so cial security. More people could be receiving social security benelits if they knew more about the law, and for that reason they are urged to visit or call the social security office whenever they have a qucs liun concerning their benelits or responsibilities. As of January, liKi'l, in the na tion at large, more than 18 mil lion beneficiaries were receiving payments at the rate of $1.2 bil lion per month. The national average old-age re tircmcnt benefit in January was 70. 19, while in Klamath Basin the average was $78.80.

Reliable sources said the United Slates and Britain were under stood, to have proposed that a to tal or 30 inspections be held over a seven-year period to prevent cheating under a test ban. This would average out to slightly more than four inspections a year. The Russians have consistently refused to go above two or three inspections a year on their terri tory. The West had refused lo agree to a nuclear test-ban agreement that called for less than seven in spections a year to determine if any underground clandestine tests had taken place. U.S. Ambassador Foy Kolilcr and Britain's Sir Humphrey Trav clcyan handed the Western joint proposal to Khrushchev in an ex traordinary Kremlin conference that lasted 90 minutes.

Newsman Asks Assurance Kennedy Administration Will Not Use lie' NEW YORK ' UP! 1 - The Pres ident of the American Newspaper Publishers Association called to day for "an authoritative and clear-cut assurance" from the Kennedy administration "that there is no place on its program for the use of the lie as an instru. ment of national policy." The press is looking to the democratic weapons ol truth and freedom at a time when govern ment seems to insist more and more on secrecy and constraint, Irwin Maier told the 7.h ANPA convention in the annual address of the president. "Two years ago." he said "President Kennedy rightly point ed out the existence of a 'dilem ma' because of the present need for 'far greater public informa tion' along with the need lor far greater official secrecy.' 1 make no judgment as to the gra vity of the dilemma at that time or at this time.. There will always be that dilemma, or tension. "But the dilemma' will not be resolved oy administration 0111- cials who assume the govern- Five Appointed The Klamath County Court has reappointed five people to serve three-year terms on the Area Planning Council for Hospitals and Medical Facilities, the court disclosed Wednesday.

"Aside from the morally of the matter, if a government, for what ever motives, begins to decive its citizens, it has begun to corrode their trust. And once that corro sion begins, the viability of self government is gravely in doubt." Maier, who is publisher of the Milwaukee Journal and Sentinel, addressed the opening of general sessions in the third day of the four-day meeting. Government attitude toward "controlling the flow of public in formation" is one of the circum stances which confront the press in its rlulv to inform and explain. he said. Another is the incidence of "long and punishing" strikes, he said, with particular reference In those during the last U months at Minneapolis, Cleveland, and New York. One alternative to 1 h e strike problem being discussed among publishers, Maier said, is a no strike, no-lockout agreement by both sides, combined with a "la bor court" consisting of manage ment, labor, and a "third force" representing the public. The court would have power to settle dis putes that could not be resolved by the parties involved. The ANPA Tuesday moved to cooperate with Labor Secretary W. Willard Wirtz on his suggestion that newspaper management and labor join to work out "new ap proaches" to their problems.
