THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR. INDIANA

Watch For Renegade Diplomats Shifted LONDON (UPI) — The watch for renegade British diplomats Guy Burgess and Donald MacLean shifted today to Ireland’s Shannon Airport on the basis of reports that the two men might be “passing through.’ An airport official said he had heard that Burgess and Mac Lean might be aboard a Czech airliner which was to make a refueling stop at Shannon on a flight from Red Prague to Havana. "We cannot confirm or deny the report, as we do not get passenger lists for that flight,’ he said. Burgess and Mac Lean fled to Moscow 11 years ego for reasons which never have been completely clear. Interest in the case revived 1 last Tuesday when British authorities obtained warrants for their arrest. The tabloid Daily Mirror reported today that the government had heard from secret agents behind the Iron Curtain that Russia planned to deport the two men, and wanted to make it clear that they would not be welcome in Britain. .. ■ MaClean told UPI in Moscow Friday night that he has no intention of returning to Britain, but he did not say that he planned to remain in Russia, Western newsmen in Moscow have been unable to locate Burgess since the warrants were issued, but he is said to be vacationing somewhere in Russia. One mysterious element in the case was the whereabouts of MaClean’s wife Melinda, a native of Glencoe, 111., who has not been seen in his company—or anywhere else—for months. It was reported some years ago that she had left MaClean for a Soviet security official, but the report never was confirmed.

Seattle World Fair To Be Opened Today SEATTLE (UPI) — President Kennedy opens the Seattle world fair today by pressing a golden telegraph key in Florida, launching a “Century 21” exposition that will be remembered for science, the space needle and well-exposed girls. Fair promoters uppped estimates of the first day crowd, from the time gates open at 2 p.m. EST until closing, to 125,000 —almost one-fourth Seattle’s population. More than 10 million visitors are expected by October. The weather could put a damper on the proceedings here. The latest forecast called for wind and rain today. Man’s progress in science was the fair theme and the outstanding exhibit was the $lO million U.S. science pavilion, featuring a ride through space on a platform holding 750 persons underneath a dome on which the planets and stars whirl by.

Long lines were sure to form for the 600-foot space needle, with an observation deck and revolving restaurant on top. One of the first of VIP visitors will be the Shah or Iran and his wife. They will arrive tonight and tour the fair on Sunday. Seattle’s biggest worry is going to be getting people to and from the fair. The Swedish monorail is designed to transport 10,000 an hour from downtown Seattle to the grounds. But automobile tieups were going to be tremendous and the city appealed to local citizens not to drive to the grounds. Total advance admission sales already totaled more than $8 million, already enough to put the fair in the profit margin. Two From Decatur On European Tour Two Decatur young men will take part in a three-week, sixcountry tour of Europe with the Heidelberg College concert choir this summer, it was pea med today. Making the trip will be Michael Kaehr, son of Mr. and Mrs. Dorris D. Heath, of 324 Grant street, and Ronald Feller, son of the Rev. and Mrs. William C. Feller, of 310 Jackson. Kaehr, a sophomore music major, is a member of the Sigma Tau Nu society, O. M. E. A., and Trial club. FOHer, a mathmatics major, is a member of the Alpha Phi Tau society. Dr. Fems Ohl, professor of voice and chords at Heidelberg College, Tiffin, 0., announced the tentative itinerary for the group’s tour, June 19 to July 12. They will lea ve Windsor, Canada, by jet and return from Amsterdam, The Netherlands, after concerts in Holland, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and France.

SOCIAL SECURITY QUIZ 1. Q. I recently purchased a small business. At the present time I have four employees, How do I report their earnings for social security purposes, and how much do I pay on their earnings? A. You should get in touch with your nearest social security or internal revenue office and ask for Form SS-4. Mail the completed form to the internal revenue service. They will issue you an employers identification number and provide you with the forms to report your employees. 2. Q. If a man has been paying into social security but dies before he reaches the age of 62, will his widow draw benefits from his social security when she reaches 62? A. Provided the man has paid into social security a sufficient length of time to be fully insured, his widow would be elegible for benefits at age 62 if she has not remarried. At the time of his death there would also be a lump sum death payment made, and if there were minor children benefits could be paid to the children and to the widow regardless of her age. The same thing would hold true if there was an adult disabled child entitled to benefits.

3. Q. Will a wife who is drawing benefits from her husband’s social security continue to draw the same amount if her husband dies? A. No. A woman drawing wife’s benefits receives 50 per cent of her husband’s benefit amount, which may also be reduced if she has elected to receive the benefit before she is 65. In the event of her husband’s death she is eligible to receive 82% per cent of her husband’s benefit amount. There is no reduction in this even if she starts receiving widow’s benefits before she is 65. Neither is there any reduction in her widow’s benefit if she was receiving reduced wife’s benefits. 4. Q. I am 66 years old and am working part time. Con I draw any social security benefits even though I’m still working? A. Probably so. You can get all of your social security if your earnings are not over SI2OO a year. By all means, check with the social security office so we can determine just how much you can get. r.*

5. Q. How far back can benefits be paid? I was 65 two years ago and had my income cut to SI2OO. Can I get benefits all the way back if lapply now? A. No. Benefits can be paid only for 12 months back. You should apply right away. For each month you delay, you will lose a month’s payment. 6. Q. I am a farmer and my net income each year is not over SIOOO. Can I still keep farming and draw all of my social security? A. Yes. As long as you’re not making over SI2OO you will be able to draw all your benefits. 7. Q. My benefit is $lO5 a month. I have gone back to work and will make SI6OO this year. Will I be able to draw any social security? A. Yes. You can get SIO6O of your social security — giving up S2OO. The affair will be held in the coliseum, and a large crowd is anticipated from advance ticket sales Any county person interested in securing a ticket may contact Mrs. Death, Mrs. Annabelle Heller or GOP county chairman True Andrews. A reception for the senator will be held preceding the banquet and speech.
