Increased Payments
Under Social Security
Begin This Month
Many People Affected
In This District
By New Law

There will be no delay in get
ting out the increased insurance
benefit payments provided by the
amended Social Security Act"
declares Mrs. Mary King Temple,
manager of the Greenwood Social
Security office.
Mrs. Temple returned from a
three-day conference in Jackson,
held in connection with the
amended act, signed into law by
President Truman on August %,
1850.
Nineteen field office managers
from the states of Mississippi and
Alabama, together with a region
al representative from Atlanta at
tended the training session.
AT the conference, l learned
that the area offices have been
working overtime to compute the
increased amounts of payment
and are ready now to get out the
higher benefit checks" says Mrs.
Temple.
Under provision of the new
law, increased payments will 60
to everyone now receiving old
age or survivors insurance pay
ments. This is effective Septem-
Der /.
Cards notifying present bene-
ficiaries of this important provi-
sion of the new law have been
mailed" declared MRS. Temple.
The increases will show on the
September checks which will
reach them early in October" she
added.
Payments under the amended
law will range from a minimum
of $40 for retired insured worker
to $3.50 maximum for family bene-
fits.
Mrs. Temple requests benefi-
Charles in this locality wait I'M
til the receipt of their Septem-
Der checks to find out the exact
amount of their individual in
creased benefit payments.
Under the new law, Mrs Tenn
pie says people age IS or over will
be eligible for insurance benefits
beginning in September if they
have been paid wages of $50 or
more in six or more different cal
endar quarters for work covered
by social security. Roughly, this
is year and a half. She esti-
mates that $50 people in this To-
cality will be entitled to immedi-
ate payments under this provi-
sion. Many of these people had
made application before but
could not qualify for benefits I'M
der the old law. The Greenwood
social security office is making
every effort to get in touch with
those Of whom it has record, bu
asks the cooperation of everyone
who may know of such person.
''Tell him or tell u.s." says Mrs.
Temple. Have him come to our
office and file a new application
for old-age and survivors insur-
ance benefit payments"
The other provisions of the new
law, extending social security
coverage to groups of workers and
self-employed people heretofore
excluded, will go into effect on
January first. Mrs. Temple esti-
mates that 1880 people in this To-
cality alone will come under So
cial security at that time under
the new social security law.
