ANNOUNCES CHANGES
In DRAINAGE CAMPS
Soil Conservation Service In Charge
And Shifts In Location Made
In Ohio.

Technical supervision of C. c. c..
drainage camps was transferred from
the Bureau of Agricultural Engineer
ing to the Soil Conservation Service
as of July 1, start of the new federal
fiscal year, it was announced by j. S.
Cutler, regional conservator, Dayton.
Seven Ohio drainage camps were
affected by the transfer, Cutler said.
Two of the Ohio drainage camps are
being moved to new locations, camps
at Middlepoint and Attica replacing
those formerly located at Wooster and
Swanton. Other drainage camps are
located at Bowling Green, Defiance,
Findlay, Elyria and London. The
Soil Conservation Service, Cutler
pointed out, will continue to supervise
IL erosion control G. G. c. camps in
the state.

Wage Farmers Invited To Learn
Status OF Old-Age Insurance

Washington, d. C. (ILNS) Any
worker may now obtain a statement
showing the amount of wages cred
tied to his old-age insurance account
up to January 1, 1889, the Social Sc
curity Board announces.
The board emphasized that the
statements showing the status of
workers account will be sent to any
applicant, regardless of the time he
was employed or the amount of wages
he received.
A year ago the board adopted the
policy of making wage information
available as soon as accounts are
posted. Although employers report
the wages of their employees every
three months, the posting of the wage
items is delayed, for reasons of econ
omy, until all wage reports for the
year have been received.
For the convenience Of wage earn
ers, the Bureau of Old-Age Insurance
has sent to all the boards field Offices
post cards carrying the request for a
wage statement. This card should be
mailed to the Bureau of Old-Age In
surance, Social Security Board, Cand-
Ter Building, Baltimore, Md. A
worker may obtain this form from
any of the field offices by telephone,
letter, or personal call.
"The decision to provide workers
with an opportunity to obtain state
ments of their wage accounts was
reached not only because it is their
unquestioned right to know the
amount of wages credited to their ac-
counts, but to enable us to correct
any records which are shown to be in
error" said John j. Corson, director
of the Bureau of Old-Age Insurance.
"In the year since it was announced
that this information was available,
we have received requests from about
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1939-09-01

100000 workers. To more than 85
per cent of the inquiries, statements
have been Immediately forwarded.
The percentage of wage earners who
have found these statements at var
lance with their own records is small.
In all such cases, we have tried to
reconcile the employers wage returns
and the workers belief that not all of
his wages have been reported. We
have been able to trace the missing
wage items and credit them to the
workers accounts in a great majority
of such cases."
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1939-09-01

"Soil conservation and drainage go
hand in hand" Cutler said. "Drain-
age of level lands, which would 9TH
erwise be unproductive, enables farm
ers to convert their hillsides to pas
ture, meadow and woodland, thus cut
ting down on tremendous soil losses
caused by cultivation of steep slopes. /"
The regional conservator empha-
sized that drainage camps do not en-
gage in new drainage projects. They
are restricted, he said, to renovation

has practically one-third of the total
area of drainage enterprises in the
nation, almost one-half Of the length
of drainage bitches, and more than 40
per cent of the length of tile drains.
Many of these drainage projects have
deteriorated to point where they
are no longer effective, and it is in
these areas, in cooperation with local
organized drainage districts, that the
C. C. C. camps are working.

and maintenance of existing public
drainage facilities in areas where
"there is valuable agricultural land"
Ohio, Indiana and Michigan lead all
other states in the number of drain
age enterprises, Cutler said. Ohio
has 25,O48 miles of bitches and has
1872 miles of tile draining an area
of more than 100000 acres.
