Yesterday marked the 10th an
riversary of the establishment Of
the Wilmington Social Security Of
flee. N. A. Avera is the office
manager.
During the last decade the Of
flee, located in the cuStomhouse,
has grown from an agency en-
ploying tnree persons to a unit
with nine employees" Avera said.
The local office handles Social
Security matters for II counties,
Including Bladen, Brunswick, Car
teret, Columbus, Craven, Duplin,
Jones, New Hanover, Onslow,
Pamlico, and Fender, and main
tains field offices in Beaufort,
New Bern, jacksonville, Wallace
Warsaw. Elizabethtown, White
vile and Southport. These field Of
fees are worked by itinerant field
workers who visit these towns on
scheduled days.
The territory covered by the
Wilmington office includes 1885
square miles and a total popula-
ton of 285, 481.
When the office was first es-
tablished George W. jeffrey was
The manage r and he served in that
post until July, 1912, when Avera
was assigned to Wilmington from
Raleigh,
Hickory. Prior 10 that time Avera
had been located at Charlotte anc
At the end of the first 10 years,
there are, 2.197 claims totalling
SO,27o78 handled each month.
The need for social security
was acutelIy established during the
early partS of the depression when
aged PERSONS, who had worked
long years and then retired, hao
nothing to live on, having los
every earthly possession in the '2e
crash" Avera said. Congress ap'
proved social security, a the be-
protection for old age dependency.
and it became a law in Augut
lS35,' the local manager said.
The most important thing for
any worker or surviving relatives
Of deceased workers to remember
Is that there are two situations il
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-09-07

which the office should be con-
tacted. A wage Garner, at age s.,
should inquire for complete infor-
nation concerning his benefits. In
case of death, surviving relatives
should inform the office to claim
an, benefits established by the
deceased" Avera said.
He added that many claims are
not established which should be
simply because prospective claim
ants fail to contact the office.
In addition to Avera the local
office employs Mary Berry and
Charles Dellinger a S field assist
ants, Doris Moss a junior claim
assistant, Naomi Sullivan as re-
ceptionist and account number
clerk, and Lura Bell as wage
Erecord clerk.

OOo,OOO-acre beat was marked off
into five divisions, each handled by
supervis or, with these five areas
subdiVlded into p districts, in
which 50 protectors work constant
ly.
Here's how the 1916 record of
1885 prosecutions compares with
the work of the two previous
years: there were 1903 prosecu-
lions In 1914 and 1,480 in 1915. Of
those 1880 in 1945, incidentally,
500 pr about 40 per
cent of the years total-came dur
ing the final quarter, when the re-
vised enforcement setup was put
into effect.
The Division doesn't contend
that the enforcement system is per-
feet, nor that the number of prose-
cutions is the sole standard by
which the efficiency of an enforce
ment agency can be measured.
But the record of prosecute ons
does show that the enforcement
section is active, and that the ne

NARROW ESCAPE FOR
HEFILN AND CHILD

Hollywood-Van Helm and his
three-year old daughter, Vana, had
narrow escape when a parked
car slipped its brakes and hurtled
out of control across the Heflin's
front lawn in Brentwood.
1t crashed through fence,
crossed the lawn, crashed into a
tree near which the actor and his
child were standing.
Heflin heard the car when it
smashed the fence and looked a.
round just in time to jump out of
the way, pulling little Vana with
him.
