Is it considered poor form for a woman, at her second marriage, to have three or four brides — maids? A. Yes. The second marriage should be as simple and informal as possible, and the bride should have but one attendant.

Intensive Survey On Social Security
By JOSEPH D. HUTNYAN United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD—A new debate is in progress concerning the future of the nation's Social Security programs. The outcome could be a drastic shakeup of current programs, or simply some patchup amendments. The matter is being decided by a 14-memljer group, meeting behind closed doors. Known as the Advisory Council on Social Security, it is in the midst of the most compre-hensiveL-gurvyy of the national welfare system in over 15 years. The council was appointed under a law requiring periodic reassessment of current pr<a grams to aid the retired, disabled and others who qualify for Social Security. It will make its recommendations next January. Retirement benefits and fi- ± nancing probably will get the

Low Price Cattlemen EDITORS Note: American housewives are finding thgy can sometimes serve steak for dinner at not much more than the cost of hamburger. But while Mrs. Homemaker - and grocers - grin, cattlemen stew. Low prices have put many in the red. Following is the second of two dispatches on this fast snowballing controversy over what to do about it aIL By BERNARD BRENNER United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD — A continuing storm over low cattle prices and big beef imports has mushroomed into a major political and economic headache for the Johnson administration. Senate and House members from cattle-raising and fattening areas are echoing the protests of producers who put much of the blame for low prices on a rapid boom in imports. The Congressmen are
closest scrutiny. Challenge Monthly Pay Critics of Social Security presently are challenging the adequacy of the current maximum $127 monthly retirement payment, set in 1958. That comes to $1,524 a year. Since then, the cost of living has gone up 6 per cent. Some congressmen are advocating an increase this year in Social Security retirement payments. If no action is taken this session of Congress, the advisory council is almost to ask for an increase next year. It also seems likely that -if Congress does not approve a program for health insurance for the aged under Social Security—as of now, improbable in 1964 —this will be among the primary council recommendations next January. There has been considerable grumbhqg in and out of Congress, about the solvency Social Security system.' This is sure to have a high priority in the council discussions. Say System Sound Federal officials claim the over-all system is fiscally sound but they concede that the disability trust fund is paying out more than it is receiving. The deficit is being made up by income from the second fund which pays for old age and survivors benefits. The income in this fund is increasing faster than expenses. The council might very well recommend some realignment in the tax rate which would adjust this disparity. Both funds are supported by pavroll taxes, presently running at a rate of 3% per cent of a covered worker’s wage up to $4,800 a year. The employer makes a matching contribution. Still in Discussions Robert M. Ball, commissioner of Social Security anti chairman of the council, says the group is still in the discussion stage, and probably will not consider recommendations until the fall. The council’s report will weigh the cost of a specific improvement in the program as well as its desirability, he said in an interview. “In other words, you have to select priorities. You may come up with things that are desirable, but you might withhold such recommendations because of the cost aspects.’’ Other issues before the council include: Wage Basel The first $4,800 of a person’s annual income is the maximum that can be used for figuring retirement benefits. One technique for raising the monthly pension would be to raise this limit. Outside Income: Present law permits a person drawing Social Security to earn up to $1,200 without his benefit check being cut. Social Security experts generally believe this group is the best off because of the extra money coming in. The advisory council may recommend some liberalization here, but it is blieved the need is more pressing among 1 other groups. / I Berne-Geneva Livestock Report Prices paid March 24 - 1 Top-veals ..j32.00 Top lambs ....-. 23.50 Top steers and heifers 21.50 , Top bulls ... 18.50 Good cows . 14.00-16.20 Canners and cutters .. 11.00-14.00 j Top'hogs - 15.00 Top sows 13.00 Male hogs 10.50-13.00
:‘s Putting i In Red 1 • demanding legislation to cut imports of beef and other meats 90 per cent or rapre. But administration officials oppose such action, fearing it might hamper U.S. efforts to pry open overseas markets for grains and other American export crops. Voluntary Agreements U.S. government officials contend that imports were responsible for only about 15 per cent of last year’s cattle price break with most of the collapse due to bigger domestic production. k The first formal administration step, following a series of meetings last year with cattle producer spokesmen, were negotiations which produced voluntary import - limitation agreements between the United States and Australia, New Zealand. and Ireland. Talks with Mexican officials about a similar deal also were reported under way. Last month, with protests from cattlemen still mounting, Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman announced a second step -a government beef purchase program - in an apparent effort to cool congressional sentiment for stiffer import quotas. Legislative Proposals Spurred by warnings that many cattlemen might be forced out of business, Senate leaders who helped keep a meat quota amendment off the cot - ton-wheat bill arranged for Senate Finance Committee hearings on separate meat import legislation. Most prominent among the bills before the committee was one by Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield, Mont. This would cut imports back this year to the 1959-63 average instead of the 1962-63 level. Under Mansfield’s proposal, imports of foreign beef would be cut to from 6 to 7 per cent of US. production as compared with about 10.5 per cent under current administration arrangements. Prospects for Senate passage are rated good. The outlook in the House is fess certain. Chairman Wilbur D. Mills, Da-Ark., said recently that he had no plans yet for scheduling hearings on meat quota by his House Ways and Means Committee. But there is sharp disagreement on how far the import cutback should go; on whether unilateral U.S. action would upset other trade prospects, and on how much help stockmen would get from a deeper import cut. “Time is of the essence,” says Sen. Jack Miller, R-lowa. “Stockmen have already lost hundreds of millions of dollars.” Plane Missing With Americans Aboard SAIGON (UPD—An Ll 9 light observation plane with two American officers aboard has been missing since Thursday on a reconnaissance flight over South Viet Nam’s northern highlands, it was reported today. * A U. S. military spokesman said the plane may have gone_ down in the dense rain forest? which covers the area, making | a search from the air extreme-« ly difficult.
