BENEFITS ARE
HIGHER IN KENT
Old Age and Survivors In
surance Increases in
Kent County
los PERSONS BENEFITED

Keeping pace with the statewide
progress of the program, old-age
and survivors insurance monthly
benefits in Kent county were dou-
bled in 1941, the second full year
of operations on a monthly benefit
paying basis, it was announced by
Roger R. Minker, manager of the
Wilmington, Delaware office of the
Social Security Board, on the basis
of figures released from the office
of William L. Dill, regional director
at Philadelphia. Monthly payments
amounting to $1,673.00 were being
made to 105 men, women and chill
dren in the county at the end of
1941. At the end of 1910 there
were so beneficiaries receiving
$4,000 month. The rate of pay
ments, Mr.. Minker pointed out, has
increased to $20,076.00 a year. The
figures do not include lump sum
payments to persons not immed-
lately entitled to monthly benefits.
Kent County Benefits
The Kent county payments were
broken down by Mr.. Minker as fol-
lows: SO retired workers, age 65 or
over, $1,195,00 a month; ID wives
(age 65 or over) of retired insured
workers, $147.00 month; 5 young
widows with dependent children
under 18, $500 a month; IL de-
pendent children (under 49, of re-
tired or deceased workers, $4,000
month; widows, age 65 or over,
of insured workers who have died,
5000 month. Monthly payments
are made also to dependent par
ents, above age 65, of insured
workers who die without leaving a
widow or dependent child who
might subsequently become eligible
for monthly benefits, Mr.. Minker
explained.
Based ON Monthly Wage
These insurance payments, Mr..
Minker said, are based on the
workers average monthly wage
and his period of coverage in the
old-age and survivors insurance
program. Widows receive three
fourths of the monthly benefit of
the worker on whose account they
are claimed; wives receive one-half
as much as their husbands; chill
dren and parents also receive one
half the monthly benefit of the
worker whose insured status made
them eligible.

The
What Not Shelf

After two years of toll over this
column, we finally got our first fan
letter. Or rather, fan poem. 1t
was signed Anonymous. We wish
to thank Anonymous very much
for the very evident amount of
time and trouble. We also wish to
state that we never knew so many
words rhymed with 'not"-and
that many of them we never heard
of before! Anyhoo, here is the
Poem to the What-Not:
1 have been reading your WHAT
NOT,
In fact, enjoying it quite lot.
If were sure it would not all go to
pot
1 might be tempted to try jot.
Still, it might turn out all polyglot,
And be no proof that 1 could speak
pentaglot,
Or read book in heptaglot.
Well, I got all sot,
Then grew very hot,
For 1 remembered 1 might get shot
And lose my top-not
If I tresspassed on another's lot.
Of course I should have not,
Since I was not on the spot,
And the only result would be TOM
my-rot.
There seems an endless lot
To be said in "What-Not."
Everything seems to go into the
pot,
Never even missing the tiniest tot.
1t spreads all over the lot,
Does not miss a dot
And takes all you've got.
1t canters and it trots,
Seems never to rest on cot,
Even when going as far as Came
lot,
Or to see Hottentot,
The while working out a plot
To undisguise a marplot
And blitz counterplot.
Then let this be the upshot:
Throw on the blaze a faggot,
Even tho they think, what a bigot!
Or even an idiot.
Well contrive a haricot-
Don't forget the carrot
Top it off with pie a la apricot.
Well dress in cheviot,
Wear a forget-me-not,
Be perfumed with Bergamot,
Travel in chariot,
Be dubbed a zealot
And fine compatriot,
And go as far as Cypriot.
Of course this is all hotch pot,
But it goes to show what a
despot-
Or a canny Scott
Is the writer of What-not.

A Way to Help
"Win the Peace"

There is under consideration in
Washington :hiS week an impor-
tant piece Of legislation. design
ed to keep 20 million American
automobiles rolling for the dur
alton of the war, to which, we
believe. entirely too little atton-
tion has been paid by the public.
This bill--it is called the FL
lender-Patman Tire Conservation
Bill-offers definite, sensible So
lutions to the problem of how to
keep the nations vital motor
transport moving in the face of
rubber shortage. This would be
accomplished by retreading 30
million tires every year with all
reclaim rubber Gaping stock;
and to those who point to the
shortage of rubber and say it
cannot be done, the Rubber Man
ufacturer's Association has said
that it can be done. The bill
would stabilize tire prices and
release for immediate sale those
odd-sized and lower-level tires
which are obviously of no value
to the war effort.
There is a further provision in
this bill, which, it seems to us,
is even more important than it's
other sections, from the stand
point of winning the peace"
which must follow the winning of
the war. Designed to contribute
to the maintenance of free enter
prise, this measure provides that,
for the duration of the war, all
tire sales and service be turned
over to Independent tire and gas
oline dealers, SO that these Git
tie businesses" by getting all
the business that is left, may be
sustained until Victory brings a
lifting of tire sale restrictions.
This would mean that the rub
ber company-owned factory out
lets and the big oil-company-own-
ed super service stations would
turn retail tire business over to
these "little fellows" during the
war, retaining for themselves on
ly the wholesaling function.
But it is important to point out
that this measure would hurt no.
body. In the first place, these
big companies are prospering
through war contract work, and
don't need the comparatively
small amount of business repre-
sented by tire sales.
But beyond that, it is a fact
that both the oil companies and
the rubber companies do most of
their business through indepen-
dent dealers-so it would mean,
for them, simply concentrating
on wholesaling, so their own in
dependent dealers could exist.
Doesn't that seem fair?
