The law requires that you earn at least $50. a calendar quarter from one employer in order to qualify for Social Security. oYou seem- to earn that much from several different families. So you can receive Social Security payments When ' you are 65. Each family that pays you $50 or more a quarter" must contribute to your Social Security account. Of course you must, make !fa contribution, .too. . j" Your employer deducts ZV per cent of youp pay as your contribution He has to pay an of ras own equal amount out ' J. pocket. When you earn $50 from on f?.mily during a quarteryou should receive only $48.43. The $1.57 difference is your. Social Security contribution. Your employer also pays. $1.57, This is his contribution.

This latest raid on the treasury carries an estimated cost of over elefen billion dollars. But this being an election year.

It is to the credit of the Amer- ican Legion and other substantial veterans groups that they do not sanction these. raids on the' trea.: sury. 4 cojuple of years ago, Martin McKneally, national commander of Jthe Legion said he was 'to any d pension Te said: veterans. schemes for No one needs to protect the American taxpayer fronV the American Legion; we're out to protect the American people and. thjft means guaranteeing their fiscal solvency." What makes the latest billion dollar grab so unpalatable is the complete disregard for the disabled veteran who actually deserves a hand. The new pension alls for $102 month for every veteran of world Wir One who served riinety days. At! present, the disabled veteran gets ninety dollars month. This will mean that he gets a net increase of onlytwelve dollars a.fmonthv while! the undeserving veterans ind dependents will not end until approximately the year 21X). This may seem like an impossible situation but it is a fact, tn 1946 the veterans bureau was still paying a pension to a descendant of a veteran of the war of 1812, which had been over for 130 years.

The scientific economists see clearly . how wrong Brigham Young was. What we need is more and more scarcity. We need more debts at a higher rate of interest to make the profit system prosper.

It might' be called a boycott. That is a pretty powerful weapon, as Brigham Young taught the Gentile merchants of Utah many years ago. lie didn't like them meddling in the affairs of the Saints, so he simply told his people sot to patronize Gentile establishments. These farmers .resent these wealthy corporations telling' them ; to get oat of business. From what. I glean from the papers these hired scientists have only said ebout the same thing thai former Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Tart Benson was saying all through, the Eisenhower .administration that there are too many farmers, and what there is aren't up to much. . ; The report recommends that a couple hundred, thousand .farmers be removed from their farms and taught to work. I'd like to take it from there. I'd put the same number of bureaucrats to work watching the remainder of the farmers,' and have any farmer caught working more than thirty-fiv- e hours a week sent to a concentration camp. In about two years 1 think the whole problem would . '. be solved. . It would do away with troublesome farm surpluses in short "order, for few farmers know how to work less than ' sixty, or ' seventy hours a week. Since the. farmers no longer serve any useful purpose in society, we could lock them up and make them eat their own surplus; No use starving them to death .while they work, like the Chinese are doing to their farmers, when we can do it quicker and more efficiently. As for the rest of the population have "more leisure than they know what to do with, so they could raise their own. food in their own little backyards in their spare time. They might have to cut their regular Working hours to say twenty a week in order to find time to hoe the garden, hut this would solve the problem of automation, and create more jobs.
