Benefits ARE NOT AUTOMATIC

Tom Larkin reached his 65th
birthday on a Saturday. He was
pleased as a kid about it.
Its mighty neat to have it come
out that way" he said. TN finish
up the week and finish up the job
at the same time"
That night he packed up his
tools and sold good-by to the job
he had held for over forty years.

After that day, Tom was always
on the lookout for the postman-
he was expecting his social secur-
ity benefit check to come any day.
But it didn't come and it didn't
come After two months time,
Tom Larkin got mad. He wrote
the Social Security Administra-

Why haven't l received my
benefit check" he wrote. Il need
benefits now, not when I'm dead"
He got a letter back prOntO.
And that was the first time
Tom knew ne had to file claim
before he could get benefits.
Are you another Tom Larkin,

months delay in filing after you
quit work may mean a loss of part
of your benefits?
Almost every day social security
offices are mCovering instances
where men and women have
passed up benefits they have earn
ed and to which they have a right
simply because they didn't go and
ask for them.
The some conditions hold true
with regard to survivor benefits,
those monthly payments or lump
sums which may be paid to sur
vivors of workers who die after
qualifying periods in covered en-
ployment. Claims must be filed at
Social Security Administration
field offices, and undue delay in
filing such claims may mean loss
Of these insurance payments, just
the same as in retirement cases.
To make sure you get all of
the benefits that may be due you
under Federal old-age and surviv-
ors insurance, you should get in
touch with the nearest field office
of the Social Security Administra-
ton when you reach IS, whether
you intend to retire or not. And
as a worker who is interested in
the insurance protection of his
family, make it a point to tell your
family that your social security
account is building benefit rights
for them, and tell them to get in
touch with the social security
office if anything should happen
to you.

This would be 10 bushels greater

This would be 10 bushels greater
than the 1938-47 average per acre.
If the estimate materializes, total
corn production this year will push
80 per cent above last year, al
though 81 per cent less acreage
was sowed this year.
The Crop Reporting Service also
estimated the States sweet potato
crop, as of Oct. 1, at 5,994,000 bu-
shells, which is 324,000 bushels
short of the September estimate
However, it still is six PEI cent

Everyone is trying with all of

enc seems to be certain what it
is, where it is to be found, and
how. Good food does not bring
it lovely clothes, nor amusements
Nor does much money, nor beau.
ty.s Each f these things offer a
certain passing pleasure, but it
is momentary; nthing abiding,
nothing permanent, just fleeting
sense of power Importance; we
slip back to apathy, boredom. At
