SECURITY ACT
DEMANDS NOS.
Every Employer Covered by the
Act Should Have Number
for Each Employee.

G.. B. Dubois, acting manager of the
Social Security board at Duluth, has
requested us to publish the following
relating to account numbers for en-
ployes in which list of questions are
answered.
Mr.. Dubois states that so many
people have asked the questions that
are answered, he thinks the information
given will be of benefit considering the
nearness of the dates for making re-
turns. In the letter he states:
Every employer in employment
covered by the Act should have an Ac-
count Number for every employee who
has been on his payroll during the year
1897, Mr. G. B. Dubois, Acting Man
ager of the Duluth Office of the Social
Security Board stated today. Each en-
ployer should endeavor to get the num-
Der from the employee, if possible. If
the employee has died or left his en-
ployment for parts unknown, the en-
ployer is required to fill out Form
SS-5, Application for Account Number.
The employer should answer as many
of the fourteen questions as he possibly
can. The employer will usually be able
to give the employees name Estate name
in full, if initials or first or middle
name only are known, write name as
known followed by notation ''full name
unknown'0 the business name Of
present employer and address Che
should enter his or his firms name and
address,, the sex and color. Other in
formation requested should be supplied
if available, otherwise not. Then the
employer should sign his own or his
firms name on line 16, or the last line,
marked Employees Signature" and put
the word (employer) in parenthesis as
shown, behind the name. Then write
unknown" in each space left blank.
Every space should be filled. Then
somewhere on the blank there should
be written the reason why the applica-
ton was made by the employer, as
Employee died (give date" Employee
left my service (give date) without
filing" Employee has failed to apply
After such form has been completed
for each employee whose number can
not be obtained otherwise, it should
be delivered to the local postmaster.
When the employer is advised of the
Account Number assigned to each such
employee as a result of such applica-
ton, he should enter the number as
signed on his records or past payrolls,
and use that number on the infor-
nation return which will be due in
July.
Do not send lists of names to the
postmaster. Fill separate SS-5 ap-
plication for each past employee whose
number is known, as each employee
must have number on the information
return.
Employee Should Advise.
1t is very important and necessary
that every employee make sure that his
present employer and all past en-
ployers know his Social Security Ac-
count Number, as that number is used
to set up the bookkeeping account from
which his benefits will eventually be
figured.
If any worker left job before he
got his Account Number, or he has
doubts as to whether any or all past
employers know his account number, he

Has Supernatural ViSOn

In Malaga supernatural vision
is attached to the little lemur, or
monkeylike animal, called the slow
loris. During the day, says a writer
in Golfers Weekly, this nocturnal
creature frequently has to protect
his large, representative eyes, for
few minutes at time, by cover
ing them with his hands. Conse-
quently the natives think he is con-
stantly seeing ghosts.
The Ely miner., 1937-06-17

should tell such employers, for whom
he has worked this year, what his Ac-
count Number is. If that is not pos
sible, the worker should write letter
or postal card to each such past en-
ployer and tell him his name and Ac-
count Number. If the worker cannot
write, he should get someone to do it
for him. Great care should be taken
to see that the Account Number sent
is exactly as it appears on the Account
Number Card. Everyone should tell
workers who cannot read and write how
their past employers can be notified,
and should help them to do so. In
this way, the worker will be able to
make sure that he gets credit for the
wages he has earned so far, in 1887.

Fish Thrive in
MeddOU Grasses.

Pine River-Local fishermen one
morning deserted the river to catch
their fish by hand from a nearby
meadow, where hundreds of the finny
tribe lurked in the tall grass. Sounds
fishy, but it's true. Continued rains
caused Norway brook to overflow its
east bank above the dam, forming q
good-Sized stream. Heavy winter SHOWS
and the wet spring season have kept the
water level unusually high.

SandStone-A six-weeks-old chick

the bottle was broken to get it out.

counts of clashes causing bloodshed in
the districts dominated over by the
strikes. Unless some agreement is
reached as to who is the boss of the
plants, the CIO or the owners and op-
orators, there promises to be a long,
drawn out controversy.
The employees are satisfied with their
wages and working conditions but feel
that the parent union to which they
have subscribed should be recognized.
The owners and operators feel that they
should be permitted to run their own
affairs and not be dominated by self
appointed leaders. Hopes are, how
ever, that the affairs will soon be set
tied
