Washington reports the Eisenhower administration moved toward a medical care plan for the aged with strict limits. The plan would be voluntary, not raise social security taxes, and rely on private insurance with limited benefits. Dirksen said the federal role could include helping pay premiums from general revenues, but no commitment was made.

Little Lines by Margie B. Boswell
Advancement is slow to take a chance. Float no perch because it isn't a trout. Well guided action signals safety and satisfaction. Smart dogs are slow to tackle wild dogs. Sun and rain sprout burrs same as grain. Brash wishes are headed for the trash. Foresight power builds many a tower. Some ideas are getters others are setters. To start is the first step to win in art. Noah was ready for that steady rain. Everybody reads the Want Ads.
