Why No Arrests? WASHINGTON - Eleventh .District Rep. Roy A. Taylor has challenged Attorney General Ramsey Clark to expla n why no arrests followed the highly publicized flag and draft card burnings in New York recently. Why were there no arrests of those violations of the law," Taylcr demanded in a letter to the naton’s chief legal officer. He wrote the attorney general: "I was disturbed last Sunday to pick up the newspaper and to see the American flag being burned in New York’s Central Park and to the draft cards burned before television cam eras by a crowd of unpatriot c halfwits who call themselves American Citizens. ‘‘As a member of Congress, 1 voted for legislation making it a violation of federal criminal law for a person to burn- or de stroy willfully a , draft card. Why s this law not being en f< >, red ? ‘‘Many of these violators are well known agitators promoting Communism and Civil Right* and must be known to the Jus- Sodal Security Mews By: D. C. Nichols j Field Representative Q. They say that a person must have so many points, Social Securty to be . eligible for retirement benefits. Is there a simple way to tell, or to fig ure how many points we’ll need'' A is, there s, In general the number of points or work credit called "quarters of cov erage ‘ ■ that each of \ you will need to be “insured” for retire ment benefits depends on your date of birth.

News f Ims is available showing individuals participating in acts of treason and law violation. ‘‘The American people are de maod'ng that those who openly and defiantly violated laws be apprehended and brought to trial. Acts of this type, if un punished, breed disrespect for law and order throughout Am erica," Rep. Taylor said. He reminded the attorney gen eral of growing evidence that anti-Vietnam demonstrations are serving to prolong the war and complicate the prospects for peace negotiations. "How can we win and retain the respect of people in other nations when such treasonable, unpatriotic and unlawful conduct goes unpunished?" the Congress man demanded. He urged the Justice Depart ment to use its full force and the FBI to secure indictments and convictions for what he termed "these flagrant law vio lators.” “Loyal Americans are certain ly entitled to this action.” Tay lor said. fits: If you have 40 or more quarters of coverage you’re “in sured for life.” Q. We keep reading and hear ing that a person should sign up for Medicare in one of the 3 months before the month he rea ches 65. But we’ve also heard or read that he has a 7-month period in which to sign up. Please explain. A. It’s true that technically one has 7 months in which to sign up or enroll for the full Medicare protection. That 1- month period cons sts of the 3 months before he is 65, the month of becoming 65 and the 3 months after that month. But unlearn* htr enroffo in one of (ho three months before the month of his 65th birthday, he will not have this protect on beginning with that month. If he waits until the month he reaches 65, or one of the three following months, to apply the protection will be delayed for 1 to 3 months. And should he delay fling until after the 7- month period he would have lost the chance to enroll for this protection, at least until the next "general enrollment period" which might mean a wa.t of up to 2 years. ft, * an d saf e l° Ußh - BuckZ Jee Pste r Soe s f° f,So, e.
