Fourth OF Social
Security Applicants
Are Under Age 10
Fourteenth of a Series)

Twenty-Five out of every 100
persons who applied for social
security account numbers last
years were boys and girls under
the age of 10. More than two and
a hall million workers under age
rs applied for social security ac-
count number in 1888. Over half
of these were men. Few of them
perhaps realized that a social sec
urity account meant future pro-
lection for their families as well
as for themselves. Under the
amended Social Security act, the
old-age and survivors insurance
program provided supplemental
monthly benefits for the aged
wives and minor children of an
nuitants iasd for the survivors of
insured workers.
Young workers under age Is
have received credit on the rec
ords of the Social Security board
for more than ga billion dollars,
since the old-age insurance pro-
gram first went into operation
january /, 1887. ...,.
Each worker in employment
covered by the old-age and sur
vivors insurance system must
have a social security account
number. This number serves to
identify his individual social sec
urity account, in which his earn
ings are recorded by the Social
Security board. That is why it is
important that every worker have
only one account number SO that
he may report the workers earn
ings correctly to the government.
The amount of the monthly
check which a retired wage earn
er will receive will be figured on
the basis of the wage credits in
his social security account. The

DENY NEW TRIAL
IN DEATH CRASH

Sleepy Eye-The death crash at
the railroad crossing on North
Sixth street here April 5 which
claimed the life of Theresa Lang,
Sleepy Eye, and which was the
subject of a damage suit last fall,
had another inning in court last
week.
Defendants in the case moved
for a court order directing that,
notwithstanding the verdict of the
jury. in favor of the plaintiffs,
that, judgment be entered in
favor of the defendants. This also
included asking for setting aside
of the verdict of the jury and
granting new trial.
The case was argued in district
court in January before Judge A.
b. GiSlason. His order in the
case filed last week denies the
defendants request that action
was clearly a jury case, due to
controversial circumstances in
volved.
Attorneys for the Chicago and
North Western railway sought the
new trial, opposed by Pfaender
and Glotzbach of New Ulm and
Davis and Berg of this city.
1t was brought out during court
hearings that the firemen of the
oncoming train saw the car APP
preaching and did little to stop
the train, altough he saw it con-
siderable distance away. 1t was
also pointed out that Sleepy Eye
has an ordinance which limits
trains to six miles an hour speed
at downtown crossings.
In the original trial a verdict
of ST, 500 was awarded to Joseph
A. Lang, special administrator
of the estate, who was plaintiff in
the action.

CITIZENS AGREE WAR MUST
BE WON: NAILS BOMB
VARIOUS SEA BASES

LONDON, Jan. 10.-England
took stock following Prime Min
lister Chamberlain's speech be-
fore the House of Commons yes
terday, and considered all angles
of his grim painting of war
conditions to come.
Observers noted a general feel
ing of forebearance on the part
of the British citizenry, who face
more restrictions as time adj
vances. The feeling is that
England must win the war, at
whatever cost.
War, meanwhile, was brought
closer to home when the war
department issued bulletins that
intensified air raids were now
being pressed by Nazi bombers
or the navy bases along Eng
lands east coast. Strong coun-
terattacks are being made by the
Royal Air Force and land bat
teries are reported to have
brought down several Nazi planes
although some damage was in
flicted on two or three ships in
las many harbors.
This capital heard reports of
the effective blockade being held
against Germany. Over sixty
percent of normal exports have
been checked from the Nazi ma
ton and practically no shipping
brings imports to German ports.
Plane manufacture in England
is going forward at fast pace.
However, Raj officials declared
that if Britain is to take over air
supremacy. 10000 more planes
will have to be purchased in the
United States for delivery this
spring.

BERLIN, Jan. 10.-Nazi Off
Gals were considering the eco
nomic aspects of their war
against the Allies today and
were preparing to issue several
DEGREES that would effect the
home life of citizens behind the
lines.
Of first import was the agree
ment reached that workers in
factories would be paid partly in
promisary notes. This would
conserve resources of the Third
Reich for payment of war obliga
tons to nations that are still
able to send war materials.
Russia, it appeared, was falling
down on promises to supply ma
terials in accord with past agree
ments. The frozen Danube river
has stopped practically all COM
merce between the two ma
tons.
No concern on the outcome of
the West Front warfare was felt
the supposition being now that
the Siegfried Line will hold out
for half century if need be.
