16 FRATERNITY The terminal point of a man’s investment should be the terminal point of his earning power. The trouble with most investment plans is that their terminal point is not the terminal point of the investor’s earning power. The trouble with most investment plans is that their terminal point is not the terminal point of a man’s life. But with adequate life insurance, you or your family need not worry about terminal points!” If you want Life, Accident, Sick Benefit, Hospitalization, Educational, Family and Income Protection Insurance — Fraternity and Service with Security — seek it and you shall find it; ask for it and it shall be given to you by The Hungarian Reformed Federation of America. IS MY 21-YEAR-OLD SON ENTITLED TO A PREFERENCE QUOTA? Question: When I came to the United States six years ago, I left behind an unmarried son. Meanwhile I have become an American citi zen, and my son has passed his 21st birhtday. He has now finished school and wants to come here, but the quota for our country is over subscribed. I realize that with his 21st birthday, he has passed the time when he could receive a non-quota visa. Is there any preference to which he is eligible? Answer: Yes, you should file a petition on his behalf which may give him a very substantial benefit. Under a law enacted in 1958 the unmarried children over 21 of American citizens have been moved from fourth preference quota, which is greatly oversubscribed in many countries, to second preference, which is much more readily available. IS THERE SOME LEGISLATION ABOUT ADOPTION OF ORPHANS ABROAD? Question: Some friends of ours wish to adopt an orphan who is living abroad and who was born in a country with an oversubscribed quota. Somebody told us that there is some legislation which makes such adoptions, combined with immigration, possible. Is that correct? Answer: Until the end of June (1961) special legislation permitted adoption of eligible orphans under 14 years of age, provided a petition to that effect had been approved by the Immigration and Naturalization Service and provided the child fulfilled certain eligibility factors. Unfortunately, the law expired on June 30, 1961, and has not as yet been extended, although it is hoped that during this or the next session of Congress legislation will be enacted to continue the orphan program. It is possible that in any new legislation the age of the orphan will be lowered to 10 years or that there will be other changes. You should keep in touch with one of the child care organizations in your state, or write to your Congressman for information on this matter
