WHAT'S WHAT ABOUT
SOCIAL SECURITY

1t is the Governments job to
maintain with scrupulous accuracy
the Social Security Accounts Of
more than 100000 men and wo-
men. Through more than 500 field
offices of the Social Security Board
corresponding roughly to the local
agencies of an insurance company,
it extends a personal service to the
millions of insured men and wo-
men. The Social Security Board
has the responsibility of settling
the constantly growing number of
insurance claims. These range
from the simple claim for retire
ment insurance filed by man
after he reaches 65, to those com
ing from widows, children and,
sometimes from dependent parents
of insured workers who die before
reaching the age of retirement.
The part played by each individ-
ual employer is essential to the
success of the Governments adj
ministrative task. Every three

When Victor strolled in at the
appointed hour, Audrey thought
he looked unusually attractive in
his fresh white suit, a rose in the
lapel Of his double-breasted JAG
ket. He carried a sheaf of news
papers under one arm and depo-
sited them on the porch swing af-
ter greeting his host and family.

that Vic had an opportunity to

Jeffrey went down to her car

convinced =. that you would
have a low opinion of a man who
was content to live upon his
wife's bounty. Had you given the
matter any serious thought, may
I ask?"
"Why, no." Jeffrey was a little
taken aback at the direct ques-
ton. "Of course I had always
thought that :"
"That you would be associated
with me in a business way. Such
an arrangement was in my mind
when I sent you to law school
You know that has always been
my hope and intention"
Jeffrey, for the first time, was
tempted to insinuate that his IA
theirs success had not been par
ticularly handicapped by the mil
lion-dollar dover brought him by
Louise Langdon. He contented
himself with: "That is the matter
you wish to discuss, sir?"
'There is nothing particular tc

intention to support a wife. I as.
sumo that you are ready to settle
down and think of a professional
career. In that event, I am ready
to arrange partnership with
you. More than that, I am willing
to guarantee you a substantial
income from the start. Doesn't
that appeal to you as fair pro.
position?"

had its effect.
