It is one thing to give lip service to democracy, to fair
play, to "justice to all." it's another thing to stand up
and be counted.
There is nothing al>out Hensley's liaekirround. his record

listrict attorney for AI.I, t - people, lie certainly WAS -NOT

SOCIAL
SECURITY
By JOHN D. PALMER
(NOTE: This la another In a aeries
of questions and answers on the ncv.
social aecurlty law which was signed
tnto law on August L 19SI.)
Qrrarnox: I understand there
has been a recent changc m the rulea
affecting a widow's eligibility to re-
ceive social security benefits. What
was this change?
ANSWEH: \ widow no longer has
to br living with the deceased wage
earner at the timr of his death to br
eligible to rrcrivr widow's iiistirattcr
benefils
QI'KSTTOV : T employ farm labor
When should I report wages I pay
them1
ANSWKR: If y* u pay a laborer
$|TiO iti thr year, it * roverrd aad
tax sh«:iM b> wi hli.Jd. If he war!:.*
(•r yea far £• or more days on a
time ha*iv the work Is also covered
and tax should he paid even though
you pay him less than S1.V) in the
year.
• % l KSTIOX: Can parents receive
* nsl security payments based on I
the death « f an insured vorkttV 1
ANSWKR: \es. if there is no wid '
ow or child who is entitled lo receive
monthly payments nod the parent was
receiving one-half vuoport fmm the
dereased worker at thr time «•# his ,
death. (Nirte: congress is now consid- ;
ering a change in this requirement of
the social security law.)
WKSTlnX: I earu'd $1200 by
April 1 and filed my application for
social security payments in April when
I been me (V years of ag* lines the
year in which I may e«rn ?1'J00 Mart
with April or with the year in which
I filed '
ANSWKR: The retirement le*t Is
biaed on the calendar year. However,
if you do not earn morr than $80 in
any calendar month after March. y«;u
ran he paid for all months from
April through I>rrembrr.
yT'HSTION: Does the fl'200 a
year in earnings mesn that I cannot
earn more than $1(MJ a month'/
ANSWKR: You may earn thr $12-
<MJ in any riuml rr of months just so
that the total gr<*s wages for thr
ralendar yrar or thr nrt income far
self employment f«ir the taxable yrar
does not exceed SI24m. Of roursr. the
law does not restrict y mr working;
it inerel\ restricts payments if there
are excels earnings.
QCKHTKIN: I am a 00-year old
recipient ..f di-nbility iiiMirance hcue-
fits. A friend who reeeives old-age
insurance benefits told m< that I must
r**p< rt to th. Social Se<-urity admin-
istmtion if my earning* are more than
$1200 a year. Is this correct?
ANSUER: No. Allhougb an old j
age insurance beneficiary under age
72 is required to report if his rarn- !
Ings exceed $ 12(H). this i* not req lirrd |

ihwi arises, will the white aina's

what the (icrntnns' hatred of the
Jews did to (Germany.' It Is true

tered by Negro-haters who are

the end of detaocracv in the
earth. Believe It or not. de-

I.ittle Rock'n Crntr.il high >ist
goes to sliow what dreadful odds
our nation in fightinc against,
where racr prrjudiie is compli-
cating thr problrm of survival of
democracy.
No. the real lowers at Little Rock
were not those few defcuseless Ne-
groes, but those white etudents who
spat uiion them. And tin tiling that
made matters worse. w«v the patience
and forbearance and g>H«i manners
and courage of those >"uug Negroes,
beset by a trrrible misfortune. When
u man refuses to atrik- back when
struck, he aligns biffin If with Cod
and Time and Right; for Jesus taught
the way! We can afford to forget
what happened to the Negro students
at Central high and ponHer what hap-
pened to those who pound out their
vials of wrath, of olltVrn< s and ha-
tred and brutality arid cruelty and
human meanness. Whit Is going to
happen to a country where parents
prompt their children to be mean and
hateful to their fellowman?
Minnijean said the first luoruiug sh
attended school at Ceutral high,
ii white girl sat near and expressed
pleasure at seeing Minnijean in school
and wished her well. Hut .Miunijean
says that after that m« rning, thnt
young girl never said another word to
her during those terrible days. The
heart of the young white girl was right
but she was afraid. The thing that
made her nfraid is endangering the
Negroes, the whites and our nation.
I'nless somehow rscc prejudice is de-
stroyed, it w ill destroy fur great na-
