A PRAYER ANSWERED By Frances Mauregard NAVARRO, April high in the bright, blue sky, straight towards the early morning sun, the small plane, whose motor had been so steady a moment before, wavered, its motor missing, and then sudden silence in that wide expanse of sky. How many humans looked up to the sky, to watch the silent plane as the unknown pilot desperately worked to start the motor? The plane then began a series of beautiful sweeps as it slowly descended and an occasional splutter and the ragged sound of the missing motor broke the silence of the morning, telling the anxious woodsmen, the farmers, the housewives, that up there alone, with God as his partner, was one of Gods own children, praying, sweating, and looking for an opening on which to land. Like a wounded bird, the plane continued its wide and ever lowering sweep.

Gentle, swerving curves, graceful and lovely to see, but heartbreaking as one thought of the heavily wooded hills on all sides, with only the narrow ribbon of a busy highway off in the distance, offering the pilot a doubtful landing. Sputtering of the missing engine, and again silence in the bright morning brought forth silent prayers from the watchers below. Finally, as if in answer to those 1 prayers, the motor caught and started with a steady and the tiny plane just skinned the tops of the redwoods as it disappeared on the far horizon. Who was that unknown pilot? Just one of God's one He held in His loving embrace that early morning. NOW JUMP WITH SAFETY If necessity forces him to bail out of a speeding airplane, Lieut.

Robert E. Begley, USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew W. Beagley of Covelo, and husband of the former Ethel M.

Pickerell of Napa, will have a better chance of landing safely, as some of the hazards connected with bailing out of fast naval aircraft were eliminated in a naval training phase he has completed at the U. S. Naval Air Stat- tion San Diego, when using actual aircraft, he jumped from the cockpit of the grounded plane into a safety net, while a like slipstream simulated actual flight and air-pressure. IN COLUSA ACCIDENT Oliver Scaife of Ukiah was hospitalized with an injury to his back and must answer a highway patrol citation for driving without due caution.

California Attorneys for Administrator. 9, 1C, 23 New Features of Social Security Law Made Clear It is not necessary to be wholly or permanently "retired" to get retirement payments under the old-age and survivors insurance system. "Actually," says George Burkhead, manager, Santa Rosa Social Security office, "the new social security law makes it possible for insured people 65 and over to collect retirement benefits while still earn up to $50 per month on covered jobs. The old limit of $14.99 was changed September 1.

The $50 limit does not apply to people age 75 or over. "The law is simply that a person between 65 and 75 years of age cannot collect benefits for any month in which he earns more than $50 from work covered by social security. No amount of earnings or income from other sources will affect his right to benefits. Insured people, aged 75 or over, can collect even though working full time on jobs covered by social security, or for that matter, any job. "Another point we'd like to get across, is that anyone now age 65 or over very likely is insured if he has worked as much as a year and a half, at any time back to January, 1937, on social security, in covered jobs." Mr.

Burkhead invites residents of this area to get in touch with his office, 313 Rosenberg building, Santa Rosa. By Vernio J.

April 20. Farm Workers and Old Age Insurance January first, workers employed by commercial handlers ana by farm cooperatives in prepairing fruits and vegetables for market, were brought under the insurance provisions of Federal Social Security. Prior to this, the services oi those workers were not covered under old-age and survivors insurance. The 1950 amendments to the Social Security Act provided that workers in most agricultural processing 'operations are covered on the same basis as those in commerce and industry. The "regular test" requires them to earn $50 cash wages and do 60 days of work on the farm in a cal- andcr quarter, following a quarter of continuous employment with the same farmer.

If less than of the fruits and vegetables prepared for market are grown by the farmer, his employes are covered by social security, regardless of amount of wages and days of work. Employers of regular farm workers as well as employers of workers preparing fruits and vegetables for market are now required to file social security tax returns with the collector of internal revenue. These must show the name, social security unmber, amount of wages paid to employe in a calendar quarter. The tax, which is of covered wages, is shared equally by the operator and his employes.

RALPH E.SMITH AUCTIONEER Letter from WASHINGTON Hubert B. Scudder, M. C. April 2 the House Committee on Public Works resumed hearings, to receive testimony in opposition to the St. Lawrence Seaway Project.

If anything similar to the testimony advanced by proponents during hearings held in February and March, we committee members can look forward to a steady stream of sessions for the next few weeks. This project would consist of a series of canals and locks connecting the St. Lawrence river with Lake Ontario. Ships, mainly bearing cargoes of iron ore, could be, raised or lowered from on 2 waterway to the other and then proceed to their destination. Both the United States and Canadian governments would be cooperating in the our cost nearly a billion dollars on preliminary estimates.

Spotlight on Communism According to latest figures released by the F.B.I, (when J. Edgar Hoover and his competent istaff come forth with a report you can rely on its authenticity) there are 43,217 avowed Communists in the United States. Our own state of California is in second place with a tQtal of 4550. Leading by far is New state with a total of 22,575. While on the subject of Communism, it would seem my opinions are not appreciated by the People's World.

A quote by the off the beam as have me sending all the Communists to Korea. I would like to see them sent somewhere, all right, but the designated spot was Russia, and that goes for all sympathizers, too. Members of a so-called "peace group" visited my office recently and carried the tale back, confused in more ways than one. I am happy to be listed as a foe to Communism, and fellow travelers. Economy in Government I am very pleased to report that a definite trend toward economy is apparent in Congress.

Acting on the first appropriations bill recently, we were able to effect cuts in requests from several departments. The over-ail saving amounted to which is not a large sum in these times, but the long debates and careful study are very healthy signs that Congress is bent on trimming the president's money demands right down to rock bottom. Unfortunately, our efforts to effect an additional cut of $22,000,000 was feated by only two votes. A considerable number of congressmen (and I am definitely among them) are conscientiously foing about the business of cutting unnecessary govern ment spending that is not in keeping with the welfare of the people as a whole. Our constituents demand that this be done, and common sense tells us that it is the only policy to loliow if our economy is to survive.

Selective Scrv ce and U.M Being considered in the House of Representatives is senate bill No. I. This is likely to be the most important piece of legislation to be considered by the House this session. That it will be highly controversial is brought out in the fact that four days has been allowed for general debate. II expected that reading the bill for amendment will take nearly a week, and it last much longer.

Only the number an'S title of the Senate Rill is being used in that the House Committee on Armed Services has re-written the bill. You will be hearing plenty on this issue. Richard Hall, Navyman Now Home on Furlough Richard Hall, a graduate of Ukiah high school, who has been in the U. S.
