81 Persons In Area
Receive Benefits From
Social Security Law

Figures released today by the So
cial Security Board show that 371
persons in the Cumberland area were
receiving monthly payments of old
age and survivors insurance as of
March 81, 1871. These benefits total
ing $6,11100 monthly, were paid to
men, women and children living in the
counties of Aliegany and Garrett in
Maryland, and Grant, Hampshire,
Hardy, Mineral and Pendleton, in
West Virginia.
Of the 81 persons in the Cumber-
land area receiving monthly payments
of old-age or survivors insurance, ITS
are insured workers who have reached
the age of 65 and who have retired
from regular employment in business
or industry. Some 46 of these annui-
tants have wives who are 65 years old
or over, and they too are receiving
monthly payments of old-age insur-
ance.
Paul L. jefferson, manager of the
Cumberland office of the Social Sc
eurity Board, explained that a man
who has worked since the age-old in
surance system went into operation,
and has qualified for benefits, may
claim payment upon reaching age 65
When an insured worker reaches age
65 and begins receiving old-age in
surance payments, additional benefits
may go to his wife if she is 65 or
when she reaches age 65. Each of his
children also may receive monthly
payments if they are under 16 Us if
still in SCHOOL,.
The monthly payment to the wife of
an annuitant amounts to one-half of
his monthly benefit. The monthly pay
ment to each of his minor children is
also one-half of his own monthly
benefit. The monthly payment to each
of his minor children is also one-half
Of his own monthly benefit The
amount of monthly insurance pay
ments which any member of the work
er's family may receive depends upon
the amount of the workers own
monthly insurance benefit.
An insured workers widow who has
reached age 65, may also claim
monthly benefits, provided her hus-
band died since this provision went
into effect January /, 1940). Her
monthly payment amounts to three
fourths of her husbands primary
benefit. Widows with minor children
also receive monthly old-age and sur
vivors insurance benefits. In the
Cumberland service area there are 40
widows now receiving monthly pay
ments, with 90 children receiving
monthly benefits.
In addition to these monthly pay
ments, 76 lump-sum death payments
totaling $10,7O4, have been made in
this area in cases where insured
workers died since January 1, 1910,
leaving no survivors entitled to
monthly benefits.

LONGER HOURS FOR MACHINERY

WILLIAM kNuDSEN, director OF the Otflce OF
w Production Management tells American in
dustry not to wait for machine tools but to
use secondhand tools available (which will do the
Job" and to get busy and let sub b-conracts because
''n0 one knows your job, your facilities, and the
other companies IN your area so well as you do
He tells those who are waiting to quit waiting.
Lets get going and keep going let's forget every
thing except the welfare of our country says
Knudsen-who sounds more convincing every
time he speaks.
OPM has headquarters in 36 Federal districts,
all working to speed up production, but Chief
Knudsen tells the world not to wait for the Gov
ernment to hunt them up. 1t is clear, adds
Knudsen, that american industry has many,
many times done the impossible. The American
people expect us to do it now And he is right.
1t is interesting to note that Mr.. knudsen's
successor at General Motors, G. +. Wilson, only a
few days ago stressed the same idea, suggesting
that defense production would be Speeded by find
ing ways and means to work machinery more
hours per week. Mr.. Wilson said that the bottle
neck in this whole defense material production is
to get machinery for the new projects. He said
that there actually 1913 hours a week, and that
if you only operate the machinery two forty-hour
shifts per week, you only operating that ma
chinery less than half of the time.

THE UNION LABEL
(From the Hornell, N. Y, Hers

(FrOm the HOfnel N. w. Herald)
WYE cannot ship our surplus supplies to many
W European nations which once were good GUS
toners of the United States. For some time to
come American goods must be sold in the Ameri-
can market if they are to be sold at all. In order
to absorb the vast output of our farms and fac
tories the income and the standard of living of all
American workers must be raised.
The American working men and women con-
sttute the greatest army of buyers in our coun-
try. Their purchasing power is the greatest ag-
gregate purchasing fund in the world. Therefore,
the union label is just as vital to our economic
safety as the vast national preparedness program
is to our military defense. The union label on
any article you buy means it was produced by
union wages, enabling them to support themselves
and their families according to the American scale
of loving.
OF course the union label gives every purchaser
additional guarantees-such as cleanliness, high
quality and satisfaction But above all, every man
and woman should remember in these critical days
that by buying union label goods and insisting on
union services he or she is helping to defend
America.
All the military defense which we can erect
will avail nothing if the internal economy of
our country falls apart Let us, therefore, always
bear in mind that the union label stands as the
strongest protector of a prosperous America.

VERY LAME EXCUSE

NATIONAL defense is being invoked as an eX-
r cuse for all sorts of proposals these days. some
bad, some Indifferent. Among the bad proposals
are the various schemes for relaxing or suspend
ing labor Standards including the wage and hour
law.
Administrator Philip B. Fleming Of the Wage
and Hour Division, U. S. Department of Labor,
pays his respects in Look Magazine to the crowd
that wants the wage and hour law relaxed, using
defense as an excuse for the proposal. Fleming
does a good job and in words that are we'll worth
quoting, shows that the excuse is a very lame one.
"Most of those who want the wage and hour
law relaxed are far more interested in getting
cheap labor than they are in national Defense y
says Fleming "FOr the most part they are peO-
pie who don't want that law on the books in war
time, in peace-time or any time whatsoever
81 have received no more than half a dozen
complaints" continued Administrator Fleming.
But most of these he adds, are not coming from
defense industries.
"There is said to be a shortage of tool and die
Makers" says Fleming. eff employers cannot
hire more of these workers, perhaps the time
might come when the law should be relaxed as far
as they are concerned.
"But why,' he asks, "should it be relaxed also
for girls in hosiery mills and candy factories
How would that promote defense production? Of
more than 100000 persons entitled to the bene-
fits of this law, by far the greater number en-
ployed in industries which have nothing to do with
defense"
Administrator Fleming has asked pertinent
question of the shouters for relaxing the wage and
hour law and this paper predicts they are going to
have very tough time answering it.

WOOL IN THE WAR

TT has been estimated that consumption of wool
in the United States during 1941 may total 900
million pounds for both civilian and military needs.
Average annual domestic production of wool is
about 450-million pounds Despite this fact how
ever latest available reports indicate that wool
available from Australia, New Zealand, South
Africa, Argentina and Uruguay, will be more than
adequate to make up the difference. Although
North America has never produced enough wool to
meet her total domestic requirements, and has
consistently imported, in the past, from the Aus
traasian countries and South America, the pres
ent national defense effort has made the ques-
ton of the international wool supply one Of eX-
treme Importance to this cOuntry-partlculafly TO
the armed services.
1t is interesting to note in this respect that
wool-perhaps the oldest known natural clothing
protection since the dawn of ciVllization-has per-
sisted through the ages an esSenta, necessity
of mankind in both war and peace. Much of the
credit is due to the sheep, but 1T is also true that
wool growers throughout the world during the
past quarter of century have spent much OF their
collective time and ingenuity in devlslng methods
to improve the quality of wool produced through
research on the problems of breeding and feeding
of sheep and the treatment of the VOL after shear
ing.
The fact that the both British and American
military authorities have repeatedly emphasized
the value of wool to maintain the health or 9TH
GERS and men constitutes convincing testimonial,
both to the age-old superiority of wool itself and
to the success of wool growers IN maintaining and
heghtennG this superiority. Partlcularly active
during the past four years in research into the de-
veopment of wool have been the growers organi-
aztions of Australia, New Zealand and South
Africa. Under the direction of the international
Wool Secretarat, extensive research has been CON
Quoted which has done much to improve the quail
ties of wool.
AS a further testimonial to the usefulness of
wool in war as a means of preventing illness
among the civilian and military population, the
British War Relief Society, Bundles for Britain
and the Canadian Maple Leaf Fund, war relief or
ganizatonS in the United States, have reported
that shipments of wool to England consisting of
yarn, knitted goods and blankets and clothing-arc
among their most important relief activities. Since
the start of the war, the British War Relief So
cety has shipped approximately $4,000 cases of
wool clothing and $4,000 pounds of wool for knit
ting. Bundles for Britain has shipped a total of
100000 garments and blankets consisting chiefly
of wool. The Canadian Maple Leaf Fund esti-
mates it will ship minimum of $4,000 blankets
this year.

YOU'LL FIND OUT

THE national income for 1941 is expected to be
in the neighborhood of 80 billion dollars,
which in simple words means that all payments
made to individuals by business enterprises for
goods and services plus all business savings, will
total the national income"
The total budget of the Government for the
coming year is now figured at 19 billion dollars.
|Two-thirds, or approximately 1872 billion dollars
will be raised by Federal taxation.
The Federal and local tax collectors will take
/ out of every dollars of the national income in
the coming fiscal year, most of which will go into
the Federal treasury.
The family man that paid few dollars for last
year will find his tax bill multiplied several times
in the coming fiscal year that indicates the rising
tides OF taxes. It's a painful process, but you
kind reader arc going to find that you are dead
wrong IN your boast that 81 don't know the differ
ence between a million and a billion dollars"
