THURSDAY, APRIL 3. 1952 Neuroses”, or to "Study Unconscious Interesting Talk By German Teacher For PTA Meeting The April meeting of the Florida Street School Parent-Teacher as sociation was held on Tuesday evening in the school auditorium. Miss Nancy Owens’ third grade won the attendance prize. Following the business session' John S. Glover, president, intro-j duced Miss Barbara Richter, ex-! change teacher from Berlin Ger many. i Miss Ricter spoke from her own' ; experiences, stating tnat the young I people of Germany had found so many things they were told were not true that actual experience was the only reliable source of infor mation. Miss Richter was 11 years old in 11941 when all school children were evacuated from Berlin to countries already occupied. She with 120 other girls and their principal were sent (to Czechoslovakia. Their studies were continued under diffi cult situations. At the end of the “To parents and teachers,’ she said, “is the responsibility for bringing up children in brother hood and peace.” Financing Social Security Salaried men and women may wonder from time to time what happens to the money that the Fed eral government deducts weekly from their pay envelopes. Some of the deducted money, of course, goes for income taxes used to run the government. The balance goes for social security, supposedly to be held by the government, in trust for the worker. But that is not what really hap pens to social security deductions. The government is-spending that money, too, just as quickly as it is spending the income tax money. Instead of holding anything in trust for Americans, the govern ment is holding merely a vault full of its own IUs. What will happen when the genr eration of present ,workers reaches 65 years of age and asks the gov ernment to start returning the so cial security money that has been taken weekly from pay envelopes? 1 The government can’t pay off with lOUs. So the government will have to levy new taxes to make the payoffs. In other words, more money will have to be taken away from the people so that the govern ment can return the money it has been holding in trust for the peo ple. That is the New Deal and the Fair Deal definition of social se curity. Your money is taken away weekly through the years, and then you have to pay the money ^11 over again, in new taxes, when* you want your “trust fund” returned. —News 8i Courier.

Subjects started are carried through for the remainder of the, high school course. Beginning in * the seventh grade students are clas-! sified in three branches: those who are capable and willing to attend a university for higher education; those who expect to receive pro fessional or commercial training in 1 special schools later and those whoj will follow a skiiied trade. In the latter group after the ninth grade, two days are spent in school and four on the jobs for apprentice training.
