4Yvon Delbos, French Foreign Minister, conferred with Polish government leaders today concerning Adolf Hitler colonial demands, Franco-Polish relations and Poland's policy of neutrality in any conflict between Germany and Russia. The Polish leader were reported to have raised demands for satisfaction of her own colonial claims, claiming there was not enough room in Poland for her 33,418,000 citizens. M. Delbos, accompanied by Foreign Minister Joseph Beck of Poland, visited Marshal Edward Rydz-Smigly, inspector general of the Polish army, and discussed the French armament loan to Poland. Both sides were said to have expressed satisfaction with the functioning of the agreement.

Later M. Delbos visited President Igflacy Moscicki and in the afternoon the formal conversations between the two foreign ministers began. Diplomatic sources asserted that if M. Delbos informs Foreign Minister Beck that Britain and France are prepared to make colonial concessions to Hitler to facilitate Germany's access to raw materials, the Polish Foreign Minister may recall that Poland also demanded sources of raw materials before the League of Nations. Most diplomats said Mr.

Delbos' visit was accepted by the Polish government as an opportunity to reaffirm the validity of the Franco-Polish defensive military pact which was strengthened during Marshal R5-dz-Smigiys visit to Paris a year ago. At the same time, Poland's policy of neutrality between Germany and Russia will be reaffirmed. It was learned that M. Delbos and Beck also would discuss the question of Polish Jewish emigration to the Island of Madagascar. A Polish delegation recently went to Madagascar to study the possibilities of settling there.

It reported to the government that conditions were favorable for emigration. The French government already has agreed to the plan. It was said France insisted only that the emigrants be supplied with sufficient funds to establish farms and for other needs. It was understood that 30,000 Jewish families, or about 120,000 persons, would be sent to Madagascar within the next five or six years. WHO ELSE WANTS HEAD-COLD RELIEF? private companies probably will have a 47-billion dollar reserve sooner than the SSB.

Nor do officials see why, when the pre-war floating debt of around a billion dollars has jumped to 35 billions in 20 years, there should be undue fear of the dislocating effects of an increase from 35 to 47 billions in twice that length of time. By 1980 annual payment of old-age benefits would reach a peak of three billions a year, which would be paid 50-50 from Government interest, on the reserve bonds and payroll tax collections. The policyholders would have taken over the Government debt and interest on the debt would be paid out in benefits rather than to coupon-clippers. A 'pay-as-you-go plan, Mr. Altmeyer says, would require a maximum 10 per cent payroll tax instead of the top of six per cent now provided.

(There would be "no reserve steadily accumulating interest.) It would also call on the general taxpayer to subsidize a by-no- When my head gets all stopped-up, I ve found that REL. gives me the quickest relief of anything I've ever used. I keep a tube of it with me and By RODNEY DUTCIIER Special to The Pittsburgh Press WASHINGTON, Dec. 4 Youll have to decide the Tightness or the wrongness of this issue for yourself, but the people who are administering the Social Security Act insist that the principle of the Old-Age Reserve Account, under which 36 million persons now have "insurance policies" with the Government, is both honest and sound. If you have confidence in your Government, its future solvency and honesty, they say, you shouldn't worry about old-age benefits and the method being used to finance them.

But if there is to be no such confidence, everyone might as well call it a day and throw the scheme out of the window. The 36 million employes now pay one per cent of their incomes, up to the first $3000, and their employers pay a tax of the same amount, which is collected by the Treasury. This will be graduated to an eventual combined tax of six per cent. Employers also pay two per cent of payrolls as an unemployment compensation tax. The Treasury puts the money in its general fund and spends it along with other receipts, meanwhile depositing Government bonds to a corresponding amount in the old-age reserve and unemployment trust funds.

Grave Charges Made Lately from many directions have come charges: 1 That the Government is spending tax money as fast as it gets it to finance deficits. 2 That the scheme is really a new income and corporate tax. 3 That the result is merely more debt, which will have to be paid by more taxes. 4 That the anticipated peak size of the old-age reserve fund (47 billions by 1980) is a potential menace. 5 That instead of a cash reserve or an investment earning money for the Government, the reserve fund is merely a collection of IOUs.

But according to Chairman Arthur J. Altmeyer of the Social Security Board, the only real trouble with the reserve sj'stem is that it's so hard to explain and to understand. Follow Bank Practice Why should the Government sterilize or earmark a dollar paid in any more than a bank or insurance company does, asks Mr. Altmeyer. Social Security tax money isn't being used to pay this fiscal year's 700 million dollar deficit any more than any other tax receipts.

If a billion dollars of such tax money is paid it appears on both the receipts and expenditures sides of the budget ledger, so that the deficit, if any, is the same. Since the reserve plan contemplates gradual purchase of all outstanding Government bonds for the reserve fund, the results look better when the budget is balanced. With a balanced budget and a security tax collection of a billion dollars the amount of Government debt now held in private hands say from 35 billions to 34 and a Federal promise-to-pay of a billion would go into the reserve fund. With a half-billion dollar deficit the outstanding debt could be cut by but 500 million dollars while a billion in bonds was still being credited to the reserve fund. Mr.

Altmeyer says he doesn't see why the reserve fund bonds are any more IOU's than the same Government securities in private hands, or any life insurance policy or Liberty Bond. The holder of a Social Security account at least has a vote, which is more than a bank depositor or policy-holder has in the affairs of the bank or company, another at home, so I can use it right away when I feel a cold coming on.
