| From Draw Social $36,500 Security Month
' Monthly old-age, surivors, and
disability insurance benefits in
• White County now top $36,500.00,
Cecil W. Collins, District Manager
of Social Security in Gainesville,
said today on releasing his annual
county benefit data report,
j The new monthly figure repre¬
sents an increase of 4.1 percent
over the corresponding period last
year.
Collins noted that as of Decem¬
ber 31, 1964, some 797 White
Countians were collecting about
$439,152.00 annually from social
security, an increase of 4.1 percent
over the same date in 1963.
More people in White County,
he said, could draw social security
benefits if they knew more about
the law, and for that reason they
are urged to visit or call the local
social security ojffice whenever
they have a question concerning
their benefits or responsibilities.
The following table shows the
number and amount of each type
of monthly benefit paid in White
County, as of December 31, 1964:

PROJECT HEAD START
Opeartiom Head Start is another
of the community improvement
projects offered by the office of
Economic Opportunity.
In White County the project
would establish programs in Cleve¬
land, Naooochee and White Creek
Schools.
An expected dhild will enroll in
the centers being set up. Awaiting
them will be a planned program
of kindergarten activities to get
them ready for school activities.
There will be a specially trained
teacher, social worker and direc¬
tor to make the program a success.
There is a need for volunteer
workers, mothers and high, shcool
girls to help teadhers with story
hours, play periods, tranportation,
special projects, lunch preparation
and the like. The requirements for
volunteer help are of a special
kind such as kindness, love for
children and a willingness to reach
out a helping hand to children who
need (help. If you can help contact
the office of the County School
Superintendent.
Every student who will be 6
years old before December 31,
1965 is elgible to attend. We have
tried to get applications to all who
are elgible. If anyone need applica¬
tions, they can be picked up at the
Superintendent’s office or Health
Department.

ent from one school to another

KNOW
the
WEATHER
By E. H. Sims
What is Aurora Australis?
Auroa Australis is the brother
of Aurora Borealis. And if you are
not familiar with Aurora Borealis,
it is a solar overcharge, so to
speak, from the sun.
The sun sends out millions of
particles, electrically charged, and
they stream into earth’s vicinity.
They are deflected toward the
poles and the light they create at
the North Pole is Aurora Austra
lis.
As a weather omen the sight of
Australis is a good sign. It often
means, if it can be seen brightly,
that several days of good weather
are due. Sailors have long read
this sign in the sky.
The magnetic storms which ac¬
company the Auroras often dis¬
rupt radio and television recep¬
tion.

Death of a Pilot. i ..
'Rights' Worker
The Editors: On March 9, 1965,
my brotlhehr-in-law, Lt. David R.
Ousley, was killed in a mid-air
Navy jet collision on a training
flight near Senoia, Georgia. He was
in the Navy Reserve and rated by
his fellow officers as an exception¬
al pilot. His love for the Navy mid
his country was outstanding and he
was proud to serve.
His wife was in Kokomo, In¬
diana, at the time of his death
visiting his parents. They were ad¬
vised of this tragedy through the
local taxi cab company.
They were not afforded the lux¬
ury of a chaplain to help ease the
pain nor did a Navy representa¬
tive come to offer sympathy. The
only consideration she received
was a mere telegram stating her
husband had been killed in the
service of his country.
In addition to all her other
problems, she had to pay to fly to
Arlington for the burial services
as the Navy could not provide
transporation.
Further, she had a terrible time
trying to have the remains sent
to Kokomo for the funeral. After
many expensive long distance tele¬
phone calls to Marietta, the Navy
finally consented to send the re¬
mains by commercial plane rather
than waiting four days as pre¬
viously planned.
We have noted through the press
that the President of this country
sent roses to the widow of the
slain minister in Alabama and fur¬
ther sent a plane for her transpor¬
tation. He also sent the Vice presi¬
dent of this country to comfort
and extend sympathy to the family
of the slain Woman who left her
five children home and was killed
while transporting civil rights
workers.
I wonder if it Is justifiable fox'
a boy Who loves his country to re¬
ceive little or no consideration
while trouble makers are honored.
I wonder why the President did
not send roses and transportation
for this lieutenant's wife and
daughter?
Why didn’t the vice president
visit her? I cannot help but wonder
that were this family professional
marchers, demonstrators, civil
rights workers or members of the
NAAjGP if they might have been
worthy of such honors.
Had Lt. Ousley known how he
and his family were going to be
treated after his death, I wonder
if he would (have been so willing
to die in the service of this nation?
