The Public Utility Commission said the complaints, from the boroughs of Lewisburg, Milton and Watsontown, charged the proposed new tariff was unjust, unreasonable and excessive. Lewisburg and Milton filed formal complaints, while Watsontown forwarded a copy of a resolution adopted by borough council opposing the change. A formal complaint was also received from the firm of II. Warshow Sons, Milton. The company furnishes service in parts of Northumberland and Union counties, and its proposed $122,800 annual rate boost would affect 6.394 customers.

The rates of public fire protection service customers would remain unchanged.

Regi ulations Given on Filing for SS Benefits Persons applying for social security benefits can speed the payment of their claims by taking the necessary records with them, according to Drexrl Winner, district manager of the Sunbury social security office. Wage earners and the, survivors of deceased wage earners should provide a copy of the Form W-2 "statement of wages paid" for the preceding year. In addition, they should supply the information regarding earnings for the current year. Self-employod persons or their survivors should be prepared to provide a copy of Schedule 'or Schedule for and other supplementary schedules with their income tax reports for the preceding year. They should also provide the canceled check or other evidence that the tax has been paid.

The estimated earnings from self-employment for the current year should also be furnished. No person should delay contacting his social security office, even though he lacks any of these records. Mr. Winner states. Delays in filing claims may man a loss of benefits.

However, if all the records available are taken to the social security office when an applicant seeks to file a claim, it will assure the earliest possible payment of benefits. N.Y.

Judge Dismisses Smith's ObiectlOnS to Libel Suit PHILADELPHIA IP Prelim- inarv objections filed by State And itnr flenpra' Charlps Smith. and the legislative branch during the Truman years. These Democratic managers of the nation and trustees of the people's welfare were liberal spenders but not so liberal with the people's money as the Eisenhower administration has been. This, of course, was a contradiction of all reasonable forecasts and for several reasons.

The Truman administration in its final years had an expensive war going and there had been presumed to be great economies in Moreover, government economy had been basic in Republican Party policy over the years. The high costs of war and tne relative economies of peace can be demonstrated in the history of any modern nation. Basic party commitments to government econ- omv do not. however, have the same staying power. Old timers will recall the sarcastic accounting to which candidate Franklin.

D. Roosevelt summoned the Hoover administration in the presidential campaign of 1932. FDR Promised Cut FDR promised that he could and would reduce government spending, by 25 per cent. The Roosevelt pennomv effort continued not more than a couple of months after his inauguration on March 4, lysi. Thereafter government spending consistently exceeded all previous peacetime records.

During the national defense uproar aroused by the Soviet Union's launching of Sputnik I. President Eisenhower pledged greater defense spending, notably toward a United States entry into outer space. He said much of the additional spending would be offset by elimination of whole categories of non-defense programs. It is not likely, however, that the taxpayers will get the benefit of these or any economies. The new Eisenhower budget maintains a high level of home front as well as of defense spending.

Budget Director Percival C. Brundage was before the Senate Finance Committee this week. Republican and Democratic members, alike, warned him that Congress will not accept cuts in home front spending. Not surprising, this being an( election year. Shamokin Hospital ADMISSIONS Shamokin Mrs.
