MANY CLAIMS FOR
OLD-ACE PENSIONS
PAID in STATE
Many May Be Eligible For Pen
siOns But Have Not Filed
Any Claim

Social Security Board records show
that 3,183 claims for old-age insurance
benefits amounting to 118, ,444.55 have
been paid to citizens of Maryland
since January 1, 1887, according to
a statement made today by Mr.. Nor
man P. Foster, Manager of the Sails
bury office of the Board.
He added that there are other peo-
pie in this State who may be entitled
to old-age insurance payments, but as
yet they have not filed claims for
benefits. AS these lump-sum pay
ments are equal to 1-2 per cent of
the total wages that worker has re-
ceived after 1886 and before age 65
or death, the amounts now payable are
increasing in size and in most cases
will be well worth collecting.
Mr.. Foster pointed out that in every
instance the payment received amount
ed to 8 1-2 times the sum of money
paid in wage taxes by the insured
worker.
A government report concerning
claims certified for payment in the
United States between January 1, 1887
and the last day of August 1888, re-
veals the fact that 199,435 claims, "a
mounting to 81, 528,O81.48 had been
certified for payment. In Maryland
the average payment in August was
$3.50.
Single cash payments are the only
benefits now being paid. Monthly re-
tirement benefits to wage earners will
not begin until 1912. Those receiving
lump-sum payment of old-age insur-
ance benefits belong to one of two
classes-(D men or women who have
held jobs in Industrial plants or COM
mercial firms at some time since the
law went into effect and who have
reached the age of IS since January 1,
1897; (2) relatives (or estates) of
workers who had been employed by
industrial plants or commercial firms
at some time since 1886 and who died
before receiving old-age insurance
benefits.
