YOUR
SAVINGS
BOND
QUIZ
Question: I have a rather large
number of Series “E” bonds that
I purchased in 1953 and 1954.
When Will these bonds mature
and what is the interest rate? I
think it was 3 per cent to begin
with.
Answer: In all probability, your
bonds have passed their first ma-
turity date and now are in the
10-year extension period which
they were accorded. Bonds issued
at that time had an original ma-
turity period of nine years and
eight months. The interest rate
in your bonds was increased ef-
fective June 1, 1959, for their re-
maining period to maturity, and
in the extension period they are
drawing 3% per cent, compound-
ed semi-annually.
God meant it for good.
(Gen. 50:20).

something that seems unjust,
■we should hold firmly to our
faith in God. Let us remember
that God’s law is at work, that
His law is sure and unfailing,

Highways are changing because
of compact cars.
Realizing small cars are here
to stay, traffic engineers have be-
gun stretching “no passing” zones
and putting traffic signs closer to
the ground.
Highway officials in all the
states are painting double no-pass-
ing stripes beside center lines for
1,000 feet before hills, as seen
from a height of four feet.
That’s a half foot lower than
the former four-and-a-half foot
standard. The lower seating level
in small ears is the reason — a
person driving a small car can’t
see as far down the road as the
driver of a standard-size car.
Another change dictated by the
lower seating level of compact
cars is highway signs on shorter
poles. They are beginning to ap-
pear in a few places. It is easy
for the driver of a small car to
miss a stop sign when it’s above
his line of sight.
One of the reasons for such
changes is accident statistics that
indicate that compact car drivers
have more serious accidents than
those who drive standard cars.
The Illinois Division of High-
ways found in a special 1961 study
that the death rates of both driv-
ers and passengers of small cars
were about 60 per cent higher
than death rates for drivers and
passengers of standard-size pas-
senger cars.
The Connecticut State Police re-
cently conducted experiments

standard cars together, and Com-
missioner Leo J. Mulcahy an-
nounced that the experiments
proved that small cars are more
damage-prone than standard mod-
els.
Taking issue with the inference
of these results, the Detroit Free
Press observed; “We’re not sure
the findings get anywhere. For, if
we assume the necessity of colli-
sions, then every driver should
logically try to get a car heavier
than his neighbor’s — leading in
the end to a battle tank with Air-

News from Washington
ADMINISTRATION CONFIDENT OF “MEDICARE”
VOTE AS PEOPLE WRITE TO CONGRESSMEN
Washington — John W. E del-
man, president of the National
Council of Senior Citizens, says
his organization has been told
by Congressional leaders the
Administration is confident it
will win a House showdown
vote on “Medicare” before
Congress adjourns.
Edelman said the U.S. Sen-
ate’s whopping 60 to 28 vote for
passage oi the Social Security
bill—including the controversial
measure to extend the system to
include hospital insurance for
the elderly — has stimulated
peak optimism for early enact-
ment.
“Many Southerners who have
not previously supported ‘Med-
icare’ joined with the five Lib-
eral Republicans and 44 long-
time Democratic backers of the
bill to produce the phenomenal
Senate victory,” said Edelman.
“This broadened base of support
has stimulated new clamor for
enactment in many areas of the
nation. It has given the general
public its first genuine hope for
early passage and increased the
pressure on House members.”
The leader of the two-niillion-
member old folks’ organization
said his group was not aware of
any particular strategy which
might be used to secure theHouse
vote — a vote which has been
denied in the seven years since
proposals for social security-
financed health care have been
under consideration. Twelve
members of the House Ways
and Means Committee support
“Medicare”—but the Chairman,
Wilbur D. Mills (D.Ark.) -has
so far resisted attempts to re-
port out a bill. No one knows
how House-Senate conferees
will finally vote.
“However, we have been as-
sured that the House majority
leadership is confident the mea-
sure will reach the House floor
and we can win the vote,” said
Edelman.
Edelman said a heavy vol-
ume of constituent mail and
telegrams in favor of “Med-
icare” has begun to arrive
at the offices of lawmakers
on Capitol Hill following
the Senate vote. “The pub-
lic realizes now that we
have a clear chance for vic-
tory — and President John-
son’s all-out determination
that Congress face squarely
up to its responsibilities on
this matter has been made
very clear. ‘Medicare’ can no
longer be swept under the
rug,” continued Edelman.
“House members must be
prepared to line up with
President Johnson in favor
of the hospital insurance
plan or line up with Senator
Barry Goldwater against it.”

The health insurance mea-
sure was not included in the
original package of social se-
curity law amendments passed
by the House. As sent back to
In the U.S. Senate the amend-
ment which carries the hospital
insurance program carries the
names of Senators Albert Gore
(D. Tenn.) and Clinton P. An-
derson (D. N. Mex.). The benefits
are almost identical with the
original bill introduced in the
Kennedy administration and
authored .by Senator Anderson
•> and Representative Cecil R.
. King (D. Calif.).
Both the. Senate ; Finance
Gommittee ahd the House Ways,
atta Means Committee have held,
lengthy hearings on the. hospi-
tal insurance proposals. In ad-
dition, the Special Senate Com-
mittee on Aging has thoroughly
examined the capacity, the will-
ingness and the performance of
private insurance to provide
adequate insurance protection
at premiums .the aged can
afford.
Senator Pat McNamara (D.
Mich.), chairman of the Senate
Subcommittee on Health of the
Elderly, says his committee
found that only a little over
half of the elderly have any
kind of health insurance pro-
tection despite intensive efforts
during recent years to supply
the House by the Senate, how-— the needed protection.
ever, the measure represents
the biggest package of social
security benefits to pass either
House of Congress since the
original Social Security Act.
The bill will increase benefits
by more than three billion dol-
lars — split about evenly be-
tween hospital insurance and
higher cash benefits. About 18
million persons over 65 would
be eligible for the hospital in-
surance package which will in-
clude daily hospital charges up
to 90 days with a small deduct-
ible, 60 days of nursing home
care plus diagnostic and home
health services. The provision
covers persons not under social
security as well as those who
are.
About 20 million persons now
drawing Social Security retire-
ment, survivor and disability-
checks will receive increases
under the bill. The basic in-
crease will be $7 a month.
He has said the number of
older people without . any
protection today is nearly
as large as it was five years
ago; over 8 million aged
persons have no health in-
surance at all. An additional
3 million aged have commer-
cial health insurance poli-
cies that pay $10.00 a day or
less toward hospital daily
room charges which now
average more than $20.00.
Your Congressman wants
to know how you stand on
the bill to provide hospital
insurance for older Ameri-
cans through Social Secur-
ity. Write to him. Also, for
further information, write

MAKE BIG PLANS
In Willa Cather’s “Song of the
Lark”, the author pictures a
young girl struggling hard to hold
on to noble aims in the midst of
dull, sordid surroundings. At one
time Miss Cather makes the girl
say, “But it’s silly to live at all
for little things. Living’s too much
trouble, unless one can get some-
thing big out of it.”
Somewhere I picked up a few
words that embody the same ba-
sic truths: “Make no little plans;
they have no magic to stir men’s
blood and will not be realized.
Make big plans; aim high in hope
and work, remembering that a
noble and logical plan will never
die, but long after we are gone
will be a living thing.”
Isn’t this our great need in ev-
ery area of life? We need great
plans for our children, plans for
their development in mind, body
and soul. We need plans so great
that we shall constantly be thrown
back on God for guidance and
strength. We need great plans for
our community. We need plans
that will include every area and
every group, that all may have
something of the full life suggest-
ed by President Johnson in his
term “the great society.” We need
great plans for the nation, that
we may think not only of the wel-
fare of our own people but of our
leadership of the world through
moral commitment to standards
of freedom and justice.
Some people are afraid of big
plans because they seem to reach
so far off and to take so long for
their realization. It is true that
big plans require big patience.
The joy of big plans is that they
put meaning into each small step
taken day by day toward their
fulfillment.
Most of us like to be “sidewalk
superintendents” as we watch
some large and imposing struc-
ture being slowly brought into be-
ing. For me it is a special delight
to notice a foreman slip from the
scene of construction to a work-
room where the plans for the
building are spread out. Carefully
he checks to see that the small
day by day operations fit into the
master plan. So we, having made
our big plans, need that daily
check-up before God to be sure
that we are moving toward our
goal.
“There would be fewer pe-
destrian patienis if there were
more patient pedestrians.”
