At one Urn home seemed the
' place he was most likely never to
aee again, says Pvt. Ray Hanchey
of Wallace. " ": (
Hanchey, now in the Station
Hoapital at Ft Bragg, was for about
, two months a prisoner of the North
Koreans. Be Is a survivor of a for
' . ' eed inarch of more (ban 300 miles,
' and of the grim "tunnel incident"
of last September which cost the
lives of several hundred American
- soldiers. Hanhey's right leg was
jr shattered by a Communist's bullet.
"We didn't know what was up,"
. Pvt. Hanchey told Valerie Nichol
son in an interview at the Station
Hospital.
t . "They marched us along for what
. seemed like forever, at the rate of
about 25. or 30 miles a da through
y the country. They gave us a couple
i:,of little rice balls a day to eat We
ate anything else we could find.
. "When men wpuld get tired and
, fall out, the-Reds would beat them.
: "Every now and then -our- own
. planes would come over, and we
would wave at them. The North
Koreans, would -break and run for
cover, leaving us standing by our
. aelvet n a crowd." r , , y
v-.v-At Pyongyang the group of 379
American prisoners were put a-
: board a trtain heading for the Man-
churfan border. The train stopped
In a tunnel It waited there a cou
ple of hours. During that time, said
Pvt Hanchey, their captors came
. .'and took' them off the train in
bunches of 23 or 30 telling them
to come outside "for chow."
"I didn't think anything of it"
ays Hanchey. "We all wanted
chow, and just hated waiting. They
"were taking the men out in a field
' to shoot tern down."
When his own turn came he fol
lowed a life-saving Instinct and
dropped to the ground. Some of
the men, he remembered, tried to
run, and these were quickly mowed
down by machine-gun fire. :
Treated Each Others Wounds
After a long time he dared to
move. Several bullets had hit him.
. Five men were left alive. ?We
crawled to a ditch and gave each
other first aid the best we could."
AH night long the wounded boys
huddled in the ditch. The next day
. the American forces came, looking
' for them. "Gosh, it was good to see
' them. The medics looked after us
.fine." ?.'':'"-

social security regulations as they

The Act, covering farm work
ers became effective January 1, and
' applies where cash wages are paid
to farm hands. The tax is 3 per cent.
Half of this is deducted from the
worker's wages and the other half
is paid by the employer. Payments
are made quarterly by the employ
er. !" "; ...'-;-;-: ."
For ' hired " f arrir workers ' who
meet the requirements, of the new
law, the Government - will provide
the "same , social security benefits
as for industrial workers. These in
clude monthly payments when the
worker retires after reaching 65,
and payments to the worker's fam
ily when he dies. ':'.:y'-.;..
The law specifies that the farm
