ELDERLY WORKERS MAY
FREEZE" THEIR BENEFITS

Elderly workers who have reached
age 81 but who continue in employ
ment covered by the social security
act. may, in certain cases, increase the
amount of monthly checks which they
will receive Later under old age and
survivors insurance by freezing" their
benefits now, even though they con-
tinue to work.
This statement was made by Harry
Baltuck, acting manager of the Social
Security Board field office in Dear
born. Explaining his statement Mr..
Baltlhk said:
Monthly checks which are paid to
insured workers who reach age 20 and
retire from jobs covered by the social
security act are based on the average
monthly wages earned in employment
lf this character. Those workers whose
income from jobs is declining will u.s.
tally find it tO their advantage to
claim their benefits, thus freezing
heir average monthly pay, even
though they continue ut work and can
rot receive these federal government
checks until they retire from such
Jobs
For example, Il man who earned
Sl5O month, as an average. up to the
time he was Is, and who could only
work part time, or had TO take JOl
ut lower salary thereafter, should
file his claim now and freeze his ben
afits. Then he will receive the maxi
mum TO which he is entitled under the
social security act, when he does re
rs from covered employment.
Our office will be glad TO discuss
individual cases of such workers"
Mr.. Baltuck went ON to say that a
representative of his office would be
at the WyandOtte pOStOffice every
tuesday from 8 am. TO l pm.

Nudity Defined

When is a nude not a nude? For
weeks the earl Of Clarendon, Brit
ish lord chamberlain and official
guardian Of English morals, has
been wrinkling his aristocratic brow
about nudity on the stage-and, in
particular, the American importa-
ton, stripteasing. At a recent con-
ference with stage managers, in
which they pledged themselves to
eliminate stripteasing, nudity was
defined. An mdressed girl, they
agreed, was not nude when she is
standing motionless on a half-lt
stage, with an artistic background"
