Shop in McHenry Quality Radiator Repair Reports From Sprmgfield Bv ROBERT MITCHLER S'enitor. Oswego Srrhil security have gone up aga'n as of the first of the year. That announcement probably doesn't sortie anyone since this is the secord increase in social security taxes in three years and the lltft since they went into effect in 1937. Thirty years ago, the maximum social security tax per. employe was $30. Last year, the amount was $277.20. TTiis year, 1967, the maximum tax per employe will rise to $290.40. This means that social security taxes have in- CTca<-.?d 10-fold in three decades. The impact on the individual wajre-earner of the social security tax change next year will amount to $13.20 if he earns $6,600 or more. Because employ?! ers, by law, match the social security taxes of employes, the total social security payments for an individual wage-earngr will be increased $26.40 in 1967. ' Next year's change in the rate will net be ttw last. It is scheduled to be Increased five more fmes by 1987, when wage-earners will contribute up to $372.90; matched by an equal amount frcm the company, or $745.80 pel' wia.<?e-earner. A maximum earnings base of $6,600 is used for social security tax deductions. During 1966, the OASDf rate was 3 85 per cent and medicare rate .35 per cent, for a total of 4.20 per cent, or $277 20. The 1967-68 tax rate wiH be 3.90 per cert for OASDI and .50 per cmt for medicare, total 4.40 p?r cent, or $290.40. Increases will continue until the tax rate is reached in 1987. of 4.85 per cent for OASDI and .80 for medicare, total 5.65 per cent, or $372.90. Considering an estimated work force ef approximately 70 million, arnual taxes en wage-earners for social security, including medicare, will total approximately $20 billion annually. This amount is doubled to $40 billion when the employer contribution is figured in the total social security-medicare tax. These figures indicate the impact of socialism in our federal government and how much it ccsts the wage-earner to support the socialized federal government Earns, that are pictured to vage-^atyier as "somethingnthing." " ' . It is something to think about.

PKU TESTING EFFECTIVE An Illinois PKU testing program, aimed at discovering potentially retarded children, has paid for itself many times over, according to State Public Health Director Dr. Franklin D. Yoder. By a conservative estimate.it. costs the state $100,000 to maintain a retarded chiM in an institution for his lifetime, Dr. Ycder said. By discovering potential retardees at birth and preventing retardation, the state saves the expense of institutionalizing them. Because they turn btis&ments, added robrris, and breezeways into cozy, livable areas -- give you more room for family fun. (Great for garages, too, 'cause they help cars start in cold weather.) Because they're thermostatically controlled, so you can regulate the room temperature to fit the activity, whether it's practicing ballet or painting, studying, or just plain relaxing. Because they're so attractively designed and finished, they give an extra touch of elegance to room decor. And because they're dependable, easily installed on any outside wall, come in sizes to fit any heating need, and cost far less to operate than other types of room heaters. For. more reasons why gas room heaters make sense, call our nearest office or your heating contractor. Northern Illinois Gas Company
