Tunes MERRY MENAGERIE By WaltDisiwy MONDAY, JULY 17,1941 (Guest Editorial) GRAVEL ROADS IN CITY NEED PAVING The City of Midland's time honored method of paving streets by public hearing, special assessments, and gutter construction leaves much to be desired so far as the problem of gravel roads is concerned.

The is that, in some cases, these roads provide entrance and exit to the city without especially benefiting property owners who hold long stretches of assessable frontage. In Contrast, where property is subdivided for residential purposes, the high cost of curb and gutter work can be justified. By uism DUtritmUd by Kine fttlvnt Syndkctc. Whitman drive is a good example. Orchard drive is another.

Cook road is a third. These are just some of the examples. At least present, it would be silly to consider full-fledged curb- and-gutter work for these But an asphalt surface would reduce maintenance and ease traffic. It would be somewhat the same as the paving for county roads. "Nowr's our chance to repay all those dinner invitations!" It is questionable whether property should bear special assessments for this type of work.

The money should come from the general budget. It is true that, in this case, it tvill be difficult if not impossible future years to get property jwners to petition and be willing to pay for regular street contraction. Even so, there must be a reason- ble solution that could be worked out. It should be done as soon as $5,000 worth of goods and services.

Capital has been' declining due to the increase in taxes. The taxes in a good many are more and more our problem, in the townships, the villages, counties, states and the nation. We the people need to spend more time trying to help work out the problems of government. When you start doing" a little careful Checking you learn that there are many laws thaU duplicate and tri- picate the problems. All of the people are going to pay for the many mistakes that are made in government.

The duplication of effort makes the unnecessary waste of the tax dollar more and more a problem. We need a more -favorable climate for private investors from the tax angle so that they can use their to help new enterprises. -Xew enterprises could help the labor market. With the population continuing to increase there will be more need for new jobs for people. Mr.

Wagoner said the role of government spending in promoting growth is "akin to fertilizer -a little of which on the economic soil may be of some help but too much would sear it and nothing would grow." We need to take a little time and write to our elected officials. Many of the stale legislative members are traveling around and you can talk i about just how they plan to help reduce the waste. Just remember that we can do wonder if we all work toward the solving the problem of reducing government waste. NAKED ANACOLUTHON FROWNS ON BIKINIS (Guest Editorial) As if there were not enough difficulty- in and about Berlin, the American military command there had to invoke the services of anacoluthon. The action has provoked angry responses from important and influential people in Europe namely, the wives of American military personnel stationed in Berlin.

The sharply criticized official action is the issuing of the following order, in West Point English: "The wearing of bikini bathing suits, shorts (excluding Bermuda shorts), and abbreviated skirts is not considered in good taste and not be worn in housing areas or shopping center facilities." What is the subject of will not be worn? It is not bikinis, shorts, and abbreviated skirts, but wear- ng. The author instructs the ladies that wearing is not to be worn. This is a clear instance of anacoluthon--defined as "abandonment the midst of a sentence of one ype of construction in favor of one grammatically inconsonant." an offense which, unfortunately, is not punishable under the military code. The form of that order may- safe- be made subject to renegolia- ion. No doubt a lot of American soldiers in Berlin would join their vives and girl friends in willing- ess to see the content go, too.

Michigan In Washington By Esther Van Wagoner Tufty WASHINGTON The 100,000 Michigan farmers who grow soft white and some soft red wheat under the 15 acre exemption provision face a new deal under the senate wheat bill. The 15 acre exemption is cut to 13.5 acres. This will not be a hardship to many farmers in the state, according to Senator Philip Hart (D. Mich.) because "most. of them average somewhat less than 15 acre planting each year, actually about 8 to 10 acres." Hart is only Michigan member of a farm committee.

Also, if in any of the last three years the Michigan farmer had planted between 13.5 and 15 acres, he will have to reduce the planting to 13.5 acres. If in any of the last three years, YourMone.y's Worth By -Sylvia Porter A fortnight from today, when August begins, men will be able for the first time to draw social security benefits as soon as they reach 62. This cut in the voluntary retirement age from 65 to 62 under the Social i amendments of 1961 will, it is estimated, result in payments just during the next 12 months of $441 million to 560,000 who otherwise would not have been eligible for insurance benefits." 1 This is a lot of money going to a Ipt of people and a retirement age of 62 applying to men as it has to women since 1956 is a startling event in itself. Here are questions you might ask and the answers. I'll be 62 next, month (or 63 or 64).

What happens to my benefits if I start taking them now? A. amount of your benefit checks will be reduced--permanently. Your benefit always will be less than you could have been paid at age 65 on the basis of your past earnings. If you start taking your benefits at 62, your check will be reduced '20 per cent to 80 per cent of what you could get at 65. For instance, if you would be eligible for a monthly benefit of $80 at 65, you would receive $64 a month, at 62.

If you start taking your benefits at 63, you'll get 86 and two- thirds per cent of your full benefit. If you start at" age 64, the amount you'll get will be 93 and one-third per cent of your full benefit.

The same amount of socia security credit you would neei if you waited until 65. If you'r 62 this year, you'll need credi for 3Vi years of work under- so cial security to for bene fits. This 'is a liberalization unde tht 1961 law; under the 1960 act you would have needed credit fo 4V years of work to qualify. Q. What are some reasons snould apply for earlier benefits? A.

You should take advantage of this law if your job been erased by automation or technological change or if you're in il health and you're finding it next to impossible to get back on payroll. You are the person for xvhom this earlier retirement rule was designed. You snOuld do this also if members of your immediate family can get retirement benefits and thus help ease your plight. Eligible dependents include your wife 62 or older, or your wife at zny age if she has in her care a child or children under the age of 18 or totally disabled since childhood. As an illustration, say that at 65 you'd get a benefit of $100 a month and your wife would be eligible for half of this ($50) at 05.

If you both take benefits as soon as each of you reaches 62, your family check will be $117.50 instead of $150--not ample but not bad either. Q. What are reasons I should not claim earlier benefits? A. Don't claim the earlier benefits if you have a steady job and are healthy, or if you're on temporary layoff and sure to be called back. Your check will be reduced permanently if you apply earlier and once you receive a reduced check, you'll never get the full amount to which you would have been entitled at 65.

Don't claim the earlier benefits unless you're quite sure, too, you can handle being "retired." The jolt of retirement at the young age of 62 can be dreadful and don't underestimate this one bit. Q. If I don't file at 62, do I have to wait until 65? A.

Miss Britsch, a native of New Orleans, said she had been living with relatives in Clare- rnont Harbor for the past 18 months.

If you accomplish A it does not necessarily follow that you will also accomplish B. A woman who runs to the boss with such a complaint will earn (and richly deserve) her husband's everlasting hostility. She degrades not only him, but herself, by dropping this intimate family problem in the boss' lap. This is a personal not a business matter. What you need is a third party, skilled in family counseling, to talk with both of you and get this derailed marriage back on the track.

Dear Ann Landers: As a group of nurses we wish to applaud your sharp criticism of the mother who took her 7-year-old daughter to the hospital to have her tonsils removed, telling the poor child that she was being taken there to. visit a friend. Of course the child was frightened to death when she learned she was going to have surgery, and she made it very unpleasant for everyone. Recently we had a similar case only this mother told her they were going to a hotel. The Jittle girl was petrified and scream- ed from the moment she found out where she was until she was given the anesthetic.

All mothers should; tell their children the truth and they should start the. very day the arrangements are made with the doctor. If the mother assures the child that she will be right there-every minute and that there is nothing to fear, all will be well. And it makes it a lot easier on the. hospital staff, too.

A.R:N. Dear R.N: I received other Jetters from nurses, doctors, and mothers and they agreed unanimously that all children, regardless of age, should be prepared in ad-' vance for a visit to the hospital. Not one suggested that it is easier on the child to spring" it as a surprise. One mother wrote: "When we told Billy he was going to have his tonsils out, we also, told him he could have all the ice cream Ke could eat. He was so eager to go to the hospital that he kept asking every day for a week, "IS THIS the day?" to OUTSPOKEN admit to being a Confidential CRITIC: You and then you ask how a woman can be romantically inclined when her child is having a severe coughing spell in the next room.
