WOULD BE LESS If
INCOME WAS LOWER

Commenting upon the above
examples, Johnson pointed out
that If the earnings in any of the
above examples had been higher
than $3.50 per month, the benefits
would also have been higher.
Benefits would likewise have been
less with a lower average monthly
wage.
In each case a benefit would
have been payable If the worker
had been employed in at least six
calendar quarters between Jan. l,
1887, and Jan. 1, 1910, at jobs
covered by the social security act
and had earned at least $50 in
wages in each quarter. These
are the minimum requirements to
qualify on next Jan. l, johnson
said.
II a worker dies before next
Jan. l, lump sum settlement
will be paid to the deceased's
widow, children or near relatives.
Monthly payments TO surviving
relatives will not be paid unless
the worker dies after Dec. 81. 1889.

eral old-age and survivors insur-
ance program with a scale of bene-
fits may be obtained without
