Administrator Nebraska Welfare Return' For Past Year Described In 1961, Nebraska citizens drew a sizable return on their invest ment in the Federal Government through services to advance health, improve education for their children, and broaden economic security. The many kinds of help to people administered by the U.S. Depaitment of Health, Educa tion, and Welfare are directed in this area by James W. Doarn, the Department's regional dir ector for Nebraska, Iowa, Mis souri, Kansas, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota. In reviewing the Department's activities, Mr. Doarn stated: "A development of historic im portance in the welfare field occurred on December 11, when the Secertary of Health, Educa tion, and Welfare, Abraham Rib icoff, announced the first phase of a program to revitalize the Federal-State welfare activities." Ten administrative actions or dered by Seceretary Ribicoff, Mr. Doarn said, have two objectives: To help people on public assis tance assume useful roles in soc iety by achieving self-support and Independence, and to eli minate whatever abuses have crept into the welfare program since it began a quarter century ago. New importance will be at tached to services for the entire family to help them become self-supporting. To emphasize this approach, the name of the Federal Bureau of Public Assis tance has been changed to the Bureau of Family Services. Of the programs in operation in Nebraska, Mr. Doarn cited the following, pointing out that the figures cover calendar year 1961. Where final figures are not yet available, estmiates have been made. During the year 14,212 men and women over age 65 received public assistance payments a mounting to $13,142,000. Under the aid to dependent children program, 12,283 children and their mothers or caretakers rec eived a tolal of $4,457,000. Pay ments totaling $1,938,000 were made to 2,164 permanently dis abled persons, and $874,000 to 762 blind persons. Under new amendments to the law, Federal aid was available for the first time in 1961 to de pendent children of unemployed parents and to States to help pay for foster family care for homes because parents failed to provide properly for them. ..Social Security During the year 113,500 retired workers and their dependents received a total of $85,656,060 in social security benefits, and 25,000 widows and children of deceased workers received a yearly total of $17,376,000. Dis ability benefits totaling $3,900, 000 a year were made to 5,000 men and women and their de pendents. The 1961 amendments to the Social Security Act allow option al retirement for men at age 62, increase the minimum insurance benefit paid to retired workers from $33 to $40 per month, relax requirements for insurance el igibility, and increase benefits paid aged widows by 10 percent. The retirement test was mod ified so that retired workers may increase their earnings on jobs and have less of their social sec urity payments withheld. Education The Federal Government prov ides direct aid for school dis tricts in which enrollment has increased because of Federal activity. During the year, el igible school districts in Nebras ka received grants of $2,041,644 for operation of the schools, in cluding teachers' salaries, and $870,745 for school construction. Congress extended this pro gram for 2 years, beginning July 1, 1961. During this time over $477 million will be available to helo eligible school districts. Congress also extended the Na tional Defense Education Act for 2 years. During the year 2,003 students in Nebraska attended college with the help of money borrowed under the student loan program. Altogether, $747,132 was granted institutions of high er learning for this program. Altogether, the Federal Gov ernment contributed $5,504,888 to help improve education and educational opportunities in Ne braska. Health A variety of new approaches to better care for the chronically ill and aged will be made possible through the Community Facili ties and Health Services Act of 1961. The Act authorizes grants to community agencies to devel op new and improved home nursing, home care, and other out-of-hospital services. The Act , also raises the ceiling lor grants to the States for the construc tion of nursing homes from $10 million to $20 million annually.

The Federal Water Pollution Control Amendments of 1961 provide the basis for a greatly stepped-up program of wa:te treatment works construction and broadens the Federal Gov ernment's enforcement powers.

These Sox Report: Tm Getting Wet' WASHINGTON Wired for sound, a pair of socks can signal the wearer that his feet are wet long before he can fel they're even damp. A new detector device, called "Aquatek," developed by the U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps, is being used for locating and measuring moisture penotration of leather combat boots under going field testing. Moisture penetration changes the electrical resistance of the sock and the sensitive device in stantly "beeps' to tell the soldier that his boot is leaking. Quarter master Corps scientists can use these test results to improve boot and leather for America's fighting men. John F.
