ent only about one-third of those 65 and older who have earned the right to monthly payments fol the rest of their lives, upon retire mcnt from regular work, are re- ceiving them.
 In the Alaska office, as in the other 434 offices of the old-agc

The Social Security Act requires that workers in jobs covered by the laW-most jobs in private in- dustry and commerce-must ob- tain a social security card. This card is the key to the social se- curlty account which is maintain ed for each worker by the Blu reau of Old-Age and Survivors In surance in Baltimore. Recorded Tn each workers account is the amount of wages he has received in covered jobs This record is used to compute the insurance benefits which are payable when the worker retires at 65 or later or when he dies.

Monthly Benefits Pointed Out

Payment of more than $l55,00O,- 900 in monthly benefits and large gains in the social security pro- lection acquired by the nations workers marked the 1943 develop ments of the federal old-age and survivors insurance program, es- tablished under the Social Security Act. IL was the seventh year of the programs operation, and the fourth year since monthly bene- fits became payable.
 Although it is still in its in fancy, the federal oldage and sur vivors insurance system is already one of the vital forces bolstering the welfare of American families and the economic life of the na- tion," said Hugh J. Wade, direc- tor of the local social security of flee in Alaska, in year-end roundup of activities.
 Because of unprecedented en- ploynlent opportunities in l943, some 4 million workers in indus try and commerce received wages that count toward monthly bene- fits for themselves and their fam lilies under this government insur- ance system. This is an increase of two million over the number who worked in jobs covered by the system in l942.
 The number of people receiv- ing old-age and survivors insur- ance monthly payments increased from 587,000 at the beginning of 1943 to almost 750,000 at the end of the year The $155, 100000 paid to these idividuals was $33,- 000,000 more than was paid dur ing the preceding year. The esti- mated total payments to retired workers in l943 were 83,000, 900; to wives of retired workers, $l3,- 100000; to children, $32,000, ,0O0; to widows with young children, SIT 7,0O0, ,000; to widows 65 and old CT, slo,oOo,oOO; to aged parents about $600,000.
 In addition to the $155, 100000 in monthly benefits, about $18,- 000,0o0 was paid in lump sum death payments -te 165,000 per- sons, including widows under 65 without young children, widow CTS, children over age of IS, or parents of the deceased worker. Lump sums are payable only in cases where an insured worker is not survived by a relative who can qualify for immediate month ly benefits.
 The number of retired workers receiving payments under the system rose to a smaller extent than the number building up rights to retirement benefits in the future. This was due, MT. Wade said, to the continuing em- ployrnent of older people who would be entitled to monthly benefits if they were no longer at work. The wives of many of these workers would also be eli gible for payments to supplement those of their husbands. At pres

NEW YORK. May Is. tUP) - If
baseball had a tough break book,
the name of Bucky Walters GER
tainly would head its list today -
having missed the record book by
the narrOwest of margins yeSter-
day.
A fluke hit from a broken bat
welded by Connie Ryan of the
Boston Braves deprived the big Gin
cinnati right handler of pitching
the seventh perfect game in major
league history. Only one has been
recorded in the minors.
Ryan was the only Boston player
to get on the base in the first game
of a doubleheader which the Reds
won 40. His broken bat single,
which probably would have gone
for an outfield putout had the bat
remained intact. barely eluded the
outstretched fingers CT third base
man Chuck Aleno Walters retired
the other 27 batterS he faced on
l2 flies and Is grounders for his
fifth consecutive triumph and third
shutout OF the campaign. OF the
six men credited with perfect
games. two came in 1880 when it
took eight balls to walk a batter
and the last was pitched in 1922
by Charley Robertson of Chicago
against Detroit.
The Braves regained their hitting
power in the second game and
supported Ira Hutchinson's eight
hitter with six runs for a 60 vic
tory.
Mort Cooper and George Munger
pitched a double victory and a
three and a half game lead over
the second place Philadelphia Phil
lies. Cooper won the opener 6-3
when his mates handed Ken Raj
fensberger his first less of the sea-
son with 14-hit attack. Ray San
ders homered in the nightcap for
the only tally and the 10 margin.
Pittsburgh defeated New York
twice, Frank Gustine's single in the
10th inning OF the opener driving
in the winnig run to give Rip Sew
ell 10 decision over Bill Voiselle.
Nick Strincevich registered his
third triumph in the second, SO.
Chicago and Brooklyn split. Fred
Ostermueller's - hitter was good
enough fer a 4-2 Dodger triumph
in the first game but Chicago push
ed across seven runs in the last

Ed HanyzewSki was credited with
the Cub triumph.

The New York Yankees moved
a game and a half ahead of the

beating the Cleveland Indians twice
The first game went l3 innings be-
fore Johnny Lindell singled home

Eight runs in the fourth and fifth

more than enough, however as the
