C. NICHOLS Field Representative Sitting at a desk in the social security off ce the other day was a young woman who, I’m sure, felit that all the problems and mis eries of this world had somehow come to rest upon her shoulders. It was too soon after her hus band’s deaath for her to know exactly what she would do, but she knew she had to do something. Her husband, John, had died quite unexpectedly after a short Illness. She was left with five children, the eldest not yet in high school and the youngest not yet bom. To raise a family the size of this one is a task for a mother and father to gether but for a mother alone It locked almost hopeless. . Imagine the relief she felt when we checked her husband’s records and told her that he was insured for the maximum under, social Security to be paid to her and the dhildren 5254 a month beginning with the month in which John died. We explained to her that these .payments would continue at the rate of $254 a month as long as she had at least two children un der 18 years of age ini her care. Even the child that was not yet born would be eligible for pay ments after birth. As the family grows up and she has only herself and the one child undier 18, the payment will be reduced to $190.60 a month. It was gratifying to see the change in her face when she left the Office. She stHl had the job of picking up the pieces of her life and tihle children’s and fitting them together, but her visit to the social security office gave her the economic base on which to build a new life for her.delf and her family.

C.” WASHINGTON Need for im- - proved 'highways is the central theme of a 133-page report entit led, “Tourist and Recreational Po tential of Western North Carolina,” released this month by the Area Redevelopment Administration through the 'office of Congressman Roy A. Taylor. Aside from a few specific re commendations, the report con cludes that a more adequate high way system ‘‘is a primary prere quisite to the development of the tourist and recreation potentials of the region.” » It calls for construction of the development roads proposed in President Johnson’s Appalachian Program; modernization and re alignment of U. S. 64, 129 , 221 and N. C. 80 and 226; construction of bypass routes around the main business district of Cherokee; com ' pletion of the Bryson City-Fontana Road; completion of the Robbins ville-Tellico Plains Road; construc . tion of the 180-mile southern ex tension of the Blue Ridge Parkway as proposed by Congressman Tay lor; and continued improvement of U. S. 441 across the Great Smokies. The report makes seven addition al general recommendations as follows: (1) initiation of zoning controls and regulations; (2) ac quisition of key sites for public recreation purposes; (3) upgrad ing and expansion of overnight accomodations; (4) greater use and consolidation of National For est holdings; (5) expansion of! camping and picnicking facilities; (6) expansion of winter sports ac tivities; (7) and initiation of an areawide education and training program.

The Lake Chatuge area of Clay, the Lake Santeetliah area of Gra ha*m ami Alnrka Crttk orreo in- Swate are singled out as promis ing for tourist developments.
