OUR COUNTY
AND
SOCIAL SECURITY
BY D. w. LAMBERT, Mgr.
Asheville Social Security Office
Subject: Message to Wives
Of Wage Farmers


Today, I have a message for all
the wives of all the husbands who
work for wages in employment
which is covered under the Social
Security Act. The message is equal
ly important to the widows Of hus-
bands who worked in employment
under social security. In our day
to-day work, we have found that
too many do not know about Social
Security rights which were earned
and paid for by the Social Security
taxes deducted from the family
hreadwinner's weekly or monthly
pay checks.
This tax pays for insurance pol
icy with the Bureau of Old-Age and
Survivors Insurance This policy is
payable to you in case of your hus-
bands death if he has worked en-
ough to be insured. If this unfor-
tunate event should occur in your
family, you should get in touch
with our office. You may be eligible
to receive cash benefit payments.
These payments are of two kinds
monthly benefits and a lump-sum
benefit.
To illustrate the two types of
benefits, let me tell you of an ac-
tual case which was recently handl-
ed by our office. A lady, whom l
shall call Mrs. Black, came into our
| office. She stated that her husband
had been killed while working on
his job and that she had been left
with two children to support-age
8 and 10. Mrs. Black was very wor-
ried about the family's future. She
said that her husband carried only
a small amount of insurance, and
that the funeral expenses had TAX
en- most of that.
We examined Mr.. Blacks record
of savings, and were happy to be
able to inform Mrs. Black that she
and the children were entitled to
monthly payments of $3.50. If
there had been no minor children,
Mrs. Black would have been entitl-
ed to lump-sum payment; and, at
the age of 65, she would be entitled
to monthly payments of $3.50 for
the rest of her life if she had not
remarked.
You should contact our office in
Flatiron Bldg, Asheville in the
event Of your husbands death. Pay
ments can be made only three mon
tbs retroactively. For example if
your claim is not filed until
months after the death of your hus-
band, you would lose 8 months pay
ments. Claims for lump-sum death
payments must be made within 2
years after the death of the wage
Garner.
A representative of this office
is in Marion on the second and
fourth Friday in Jury room at
Courthouse at 1890 a. m.

Washington-Th informal buf-
fet is one of the friendliest and most
enjoyable ways to entertain dinner
guests.
The hostess can enjoy the occa-
sion without waiting on guests or
making trips back and forth to the
kitchen. It's less expensive because
it calls for fewer courses and simp-
Ter foods than the average company
meal. An important advantage is
that it requires no servants, since
everyone helps himself.
The buffet table can be quite ele-
CANT and formal, or the simplest in
formal type. The setting you select
should be chosen with consideration
for your menu.
For bill of fares that include such
informal dishes as spaghetti or
hamburgers, washable cotton prints
and checked table covers are appro-
pirate: Long runners, place mats or
even a bare table may be used eff
fectively. Paper napkins are just the
thing for large affairs or informal
get-togethers.
Furnish your guests with either
individual trays, card tables OF
nests of tables to eat from. When
guests eat from trays, the napkins
water, salt and pepper are placed
on the buffet table SC that they are
picked up the last thing before the
beverage.
The food can be kept warm fol
second helpings by using covered
dishes and setting the dishes on con
tainers filled with hot water. The
hot water containers are inexpen
sive and can be bought in almost
any large department store. There

Although buffet service doesn't
call for special type food, it is
best to select food that is easily
self-served. Full-meal dishes, cas-

DETROIT, June l51R-Marcel Cerdan, the carefree fighting man from French Morocco, risks his world middleweight title for the first time tonight at Briggs Sta dium against squat Jake La Motta an to underdog from New York's teeming Bronx.
 Cash from Jake's home province where he has all interest in two small fight clubs, beat down the price on Cerdan who opened a 5 to 12 choice. It may go even lower by ring time for the l5- round bout, scheduled at approxl- mately 10:0O pm. (E5T. The fight will not be broadcast or televised.
 The weatherman predicted that there was little chance of rain spelling the show. If it is rained out the card will be rescheduled foI Thursday.
 From this corner it looks like Cerdan, largely on the basis of the fcld cuts around La Motta's eyes that keep re-opening in every fight Marcel doesn't hit hard enough te dump Jake on his panties but hls slashings hooks are just the tnins i to slice tender brows.
 La Motta never has lsesn knocKee off his feet in 88 fights. Beaten yes, 13 times, including "knock' out" by Billy Fox, Nov. IA, l94i but never on the deck. Even in tht Fox affair, stopped by tine referee to save Jake from further punish ment, he sagged but refused to gt dcwn.

WILLIAMS GIVES
 INSPIRED 0RAT0RY
 IN FLAG DAY plTES

Undaunted by the indictment weather which reduced the tradl- tional Flag Day observance from a great outdoor ceremony to an in- timate lodge-room service, J. Ger aid Williams gave his inspired best in patriotic oratory last night.
 The Attorney General of Alaska delivered the main address, titled simply. The Flag," at the annual Elks' services which were open to the public.
 Originally planned to be held in the Firemen's Ball Park, the pro- gram was rescheduled for the Elks' Hall because of the same rainy condition which canceled last nights diamond fray.
 Linking the symbolism of the national banner with its signiii- cant role in the vows of Elkdom, Williams cited the deeds of valor which have given glory to the red, white and blue since l777, when Betsy Ross placed the last loving stitch in the flag.
 ''The flag that America and Elkdom honors,' said Williams, 'holds in it's gleaming folds story beside which the Iliad and Odyssey are as pale as nursery tales for babes.
 Tt has been written-that lm- mortal tale-in blood and flame and steel in the crash of great trees falling beneath the woods mans axe the crack of from tier rifles the ringing ham, mers the creaking axles of prairie schooners' |. the sweat of the ploughman the twin lines of steel pressing ever vest ward ."
 In the glorious record Of oeeds and words, the orator painted vivid picture of the country as 1t grew beneath the stars and stripes, ever returning to the symbolism of the red, white and blue, and of the Lroad principles which are the four cornerstones of Elkdorn

5 doctors prove this plan breaks the laxative habit

If you take laxatives regularly-here's how you can stop!
 Because New York doctors now have proved you may break the laxative habit. And establish your natural powers of regularity. Eighty-three per cent of the cases tested did it. So can you.
 Stop taking whatever you now take. h. stead: Every night for one week take Carter ' Pills. Second week-one each night. Third week-one every other night Then-nothingl
 Every day: drink eight glasses of water; SC, a definite time for regularity.
 Five New York doctors proved this plan can break the laxative habit.
 How can a laxative break the laxative habit? Because Carter's Pills "unblock" the lower digestive tract and from then on let it make use of it's own natural powers.
 Further-Carters Pills contain no habit forming drugs.
 Break the laxative habit :. :. with Csrter's Pills and be regular naturally.
 When worry. overeating, overwork mals , you irregular temporarily-takeC Carter's Pil-s temporarily. And never get the laxative habit. Get Carter's Pills at any drugstore for 3s l. today. You'll be grat' .'d the rest of your life.
