D0MESTICS UNDER
SOCIAL SECURITY
Cooks, Maids And Other
Household Help Cover
ed By National Act

N. A, Avera, manager Of the Wi
roington office of the Social Sc
curitv Board, has called attention
to that fact that cooks. maids, anc
other employees of boarding nous
es are covered by old-age and sur
vivors insurance provisions of the
Social Security act.
He said that since the war be
gan. with it's attendant increases
in business, numerous boarding
houses have come into existence
especially in industrial areas ant
in the vicinity of military camps
and although it is generally under
stood that employees of cafes, no
tells. restaurants, ETC., are subject tc
the law, very few owners OF board
ing houses realize that their en-
ployes come under the old-age and
survivors insurance provisions. Even
though a boarding house has only
one employe. he declared, that en-
ploye should have a social secur1
tv account number and should show
it to the owner of the boarding
house so that he, in turn may in
clude it in the quarterly wage taa
report required by law.
Mr.. Avera pointed out that arounc
go, ,00O,OO0 workers in the United
States now have individual accounts
with the Social Security l>oard, ane
their wage earnings are recorded
from time to time as long as they
work in jobs covered by the law
Each workers account is a recoro
of his wages, as reported to the
government by his employer, every
three months. The wage record Is
carefully kept for each insured
worker whose name and numpel
are known to the Board, and or

The meeting will be sponsored

The primary purpose behind the

they, in turn, can relieve men for
the fighting fronts.
Under War department sponsor

PEOPLE URGED
TO GROW FOOD
Local Farm Agent Stresses
Need For Victory Gar
dens This Year

stressing the farm labor short
100 and the necessity of giving
nsore ne and more canned foods to
mr. l,lT armed forces, R. W. Galphin,
@ county farm agent, said Monday
hat all persons in this vicinity
Who could possible do so should
nlant Victory gardens this spring
The county farm agent warned,
however, that all prospective Vic
tory gardeners who were not sure
thew could carry garden project
through to the finish should not
attempt to start because of a po-
tential seed shortage here.
IF you plant a Victory garden
and don't work it, it will mean
YOU are taking the seed from some
one else who could possibly use
it," he declared.
The agent emphasized the I'M
portance of various state and gov
ernmental bulletins in planning a
garden, especially if the prospec-
tive gardener is trying for the
first time.
Such a bulletin is issued by the
North Carolina state department
of agriculture which outlines var
ious reasons for growing vegeta-
bles this year: /. War demands
more food-for home use. for ollr
fighting men, and for our Allies.
2. The government will take an
even larger part of commercially
canned foods in 1943 than in l942.
3. Meat will be rationed. This re-
quires use of more vegetables Tor
balanced diet. 4. Certain foods
will be scarcer and prices higher.
). If you do not grow your own
food in 1943, your family may not
be properly fed.
In planning the Victory garden
tae bulletin explains that h s
should be one-tenth of. an acre
for each member of the family
On which ten or more different
kinds Of vegetables are grown dur
jpg the year, and there should be
Successive paintings of vegetables
in both spring and fall gardens.
The bulletin stresses that suffi-
cient quantities of fruits and veg
etables should be canned, dried
and stored to meet the off-season
needs of the family.
Classed as the most important
fN hn fhn
home gardens and the reasons for
growing them are: /. Green vege-
tables, such as green cabbage, COL
lards and other leafy vegetables.
as we'll as okra, green beans and
green peas build up resistance to
certain diseases. They contain ma
terials for building blood and bone.
2 Yellow vegetables, such as car
rots, sweet potatoes, yellow squash
and yellow corn, like the green
vegetable varieties, build up re-
sistance to certain diseases and
help prevent colds and night blind
ness. They also are good blood
and bone builders. 3. Dried peas
and beans, especially edible soy
beans, are good muscle and bone
building foods. They are the best
vegetables to be used in the place
Of meats. 4. Potatoes, Irish and
sweet, provide energy for doing
more work.
The bulletin says the following
vegetables should be in every gar
den; cabbage, carrots, onions, to-
matoes, collards. lima beans, ok
"a, snapbeans, soybeans, yellow
corn, yellow squash, beets, Irish
potatoes, sweet potatoes and tur-
niN.
