Our Social Security
by Leon T. Klein

Recently 1 received a letter
from a wage Garner asking how
he could make certain that ~
record of wages in u account
ing division is being kept cor
rectly. The answer to this ques-
ton is important to every work
er. I am going to tell you how to
be sure.
First, get out your account num-
Der card. Have you found it? Ii
so, you can see that the number
has nine digits, divided into three
parts. This number Identifies
your own account. No other per-
son can use this number; have
that number assigned to him; be
paid retirement benefits from that
number, except you and your
family, upon your retirement or
death. Your family also has a
stake in your account.
Now let's look at the way we
keep up with your wages. Every
three months your employer sends
in a report showing wages paid
to you during that period. He
puts your name, your account
number, and the wages on his re-
port. Our accounting division
posts, by machines, your wages
to your record. If your employer
gets your numbers mixed up, OF
leaves out part of it, or uses a dill
ferent name than that shown on
your card, those machines refuse
to accept such a report. Make
certain that your employers get
your name and number exactly as
shown on your card:
Now, how can you be certain
that you have been getting full
credit for all your wages? Write
us asking for the form used for

are concerned: it takes tact to
handle any committee; it takes
tact to manage an i~nter-racial sit
uation; it calls for wisdom to handle
funds.
Debater
COME MEN THINK themselves
~ bigger than their jobs. Some
men really are bigger, and Stephen
was one of these. He spilled over,
SO to speak; he had even more en-
ergy and ability than the job called
for. We hear of him debating
around the synagogue circuit par
ticularly in the synagogues which
were used by Jews from other
parts of the world.
We have no details Of those
debates, but we know how they
always came cut: Stephen got
the decision. We can guess,
from his great speech in the
hour of his death, what his gen.
eral line must have been.
Many Christians in Jerusalem a,
that time had little or no idea that
Christianity was actually a new re
ligion: even tire name Christian
had not been thought of. They con
sidered it a form of the Jewish
religion.
Scholar
cTEPHEN'S SPEECH at his trial
~ (Acts y may sound dull to
some now, but it was not dull to
the audience. No man makes a
dull speech on the brink Of death.
Further, it was that speech that
got him killed, His listeners may
not have liked it, but they certain
ly did not think it dull! The beauty
of the speech is that it reveals
Stephens keen insight into the re-
ligious history Of his people.
Speaking without notes, he
reviews the history Of close to
1900 years In a 10-minute
talk, and yet brings out the
main points. Only a real schol-
ar can do that, a man who Is
both historian and prophet.
The most important peaks in
Israel's history were Gods
revelations 10 Their m; and
Stephen shows that these revel-
atoms had never been tied to q
house or q book.
No institutions and no place 10
indispensable to God. The same
God who had wrought new things
in the past had Tow wrought a new
thing in Christ. And the religion of
thing in Christ.
Martyr
CTEPHEN'S AUDIENCE was not
convinced. Seeing murder in
their eyes. Stephen knew his time
was short. In a few singing last
words he reminded them that MUIR
der was an old story in that Tenn
pie. They had killed prophets, they
had killed Jesus the Just One
And now. Now they dragged
Stephen out and stoned him till he
died.
Wen, you can stop a voice
but you cannot stop an idea.
Stephen was first to fall. but
not the last. To this very year
Christ has his martyrs, men
and women who will die rather
than deny him.

cannot silence truth. When the

committee, they said. First on the
list was a man named Stephen. He
turned out to be most famous for
being the first Christian martyr,
but when he fell unconscious be-
meath that shower Of stones, there
died no ordinary man.
To begin with, he filled the
bill as chairman Of that Com
mittee on Grievances. Not
many men, then or now, could
fill all three qualifications the
Apostles required: reputation,
spirituality, and wisdom.
1t takes a very tactful man to
settle a difficulty in which women

THE CRASH of falling tim
l. Der is resounding through
Montgomery County's rolling
woods where a colony OF
hardy. colorful men toll at a
tough and little-known Job.
They are woodsmen-not just
men who have gotten jobs
telling trees, but honest-to-
goodness lumberjacks whose
fathers and grandfathers be-
fore them lived the rough
life of the forest.
Throughout the day, In
fairH weather and foul, they
work to the staccato of slash
ing axes and whining saws
and at nightfall retire to their
own little world of solitude
and quiet.
The particular group that
is at work northwest Of
Gaithersburg belongs to the
rapidly dwindling trade of
barrel stave cutters. It Is a
back-breaking job, but one
that calls for the eye and
hand of an expert.
