New Law Means
Larger Social
Security Benefits

Mr.. Gutterman pointed out that
although nearly every family re-
ceiving payments would receive an
increase, the additional amount
would not always be divided among
all the members of the family re-
ceiving monthly checks. In some
cases the entire increase will go
to the retired worker.
Under the terms of the Law,
most families will get an increase
of about $500; some will get less,
some will get more. A few bene-
fits now being paid, and most
of those payable in the future, will
be based on earnings after 1850,
instead of 1886. The amended Law
provides a new formula for de-
termining the amount of the pay
ments in these cases. Under it, a
retired workers monthly benefit
would be $3.50 of the first $100
of his average monthly earnings
plus 1870 of the remainder up to
$500.
Beginning September 1st, the
new law increased to SIS a month
instead of $50 the amount of
money a beneficiary may earn and
still receive the monthly benefits.
Self-employed people entitled to
old-age and survivors insurance
benefits may receive the payments
for each month of the year if their
net earnings during the entire year
are not over 5000.
The amended Law contains a
provision of special Importance to
self-employed people who have re-
tired or plan to retire during 1852.
Before the passage Of the amend
ments their earnings for the year
in which an application was made
could not be used to figure their
old-age benefit payments. Now,
those self-employed people who
originally applied for benefits in
1852 may re-apply at the close of
the taxable year and have their
1862 earnings used in figuring
their monthly benefit payments.
In general, this will increase the
East Cleveland leader. [volume] (East Cleveland, Ohio) 1942-1970, 1952-07-24

monthly benefit payment to self
employed persons.
A similar change in the law
now permits insured wage earners
who retire in 1852 to have their
wages for this year used immedi-
ately in figuring the amount of
their benefit payments. Hereto
fore, it was necessary for them to
come back after the end of the
year in order to have all Of their
covered wages for 1852 included in
the computation of the benefit
amount.
Another amendment allows bene-
ficiaries aged rs or over already
on the rolls to take advantage of
the higher benefit payments pro-
vjded under the new formula, if
they have had at least year and
a half of covered work after 1850.
The amended law allows social
security wage credits of $160 for
each month of active military or
naval service after July "a, 1947.
This provision is simply an ex-
tension of the one which already
gives social security wage credits
to servicemen of World War II.
1t applies to service in the armed
forces up to January /, 1854.
OF advantage to the survivors Of
deceased service people is a pro-
vision in the amended law extend
ing the time for claiming a lump
sum death payment. This applies
to servicemen who die abroad and
are later returned to the United
States for burial or reburial. Sur
vivors who pay the burial expenses
may now claim reimbursement up
to two years after the reburial in
stead of two years after the serv-
iceman's death.

About $4,000 people in the
Cuyahoga County area will re-
ceive higher social security pay
ments as a result of the social
security amendments which Presi-
dent Truman signed into law last
July 18th. The first increased
'checks will be for the month of
September, delivered early in Oc-
tober.
Harry Gutterman, manager of
the East side social security office,
emphasized that no one needs to
apply for the increased payments.
"The Social Security Administra-
tion is already changing the
amounts" he pointed out. "We ex-
pect to get them changed in time
to have them in the mail October
3rd, the regular delivery date, but
if in few cases we don't meet
that schedule we'll send the regu-
lar check and make up the differ
ence in a later check"

That unusual display Of book
marks noted in the windows of
the Branch Library, 1881 Hayden
ave-, is attracting much attention.
Many a regular passerby is noting
the increasing number of book
marks appearing from day to day.
At last count there were 226 of
them
Each Bookmark is a milestone
for the more than 800 boys and
girls registered at North Branch
in the summer Book Mark Club of
the East Cleveland Library. At
the main library, 14101 Euclid ave-,
1877 little readers are listed, and 122
have started the listing of books
read. In fact, Della Burke, 14209
Sciota ave-, has already filled both
sides of her Bookmark with book
titles.
At Caledonia Branch 128 men,
bers are registered and 90 of them
have chosen gay colored book
marks. Many have had a star
added because they have finished
ten books. Daniel Finnegan, 1886
Nela and Dennis Mccarthy, 1847
Nela have filled their first book
marks and started on another.
At Rozelle Branch, open only on

their own.
Sins of omission and commits
sion by some business groups
have penalized the entire busi-
ness community public esteem
has been lost and this has provid-
ed an opening for attacks by the
anti-business groups. 1t is un-
fortunate, but true, that large
sections of the public have been
blinded to the virtues of business
as a whole by the errors of the
comparatively few transgressors.
Upon management, therefore,
rests the duty of informing the
people as to the true facts. This
cannot be done by sweet phrases,
high-sounding slogans and de-
clarations of virtue. Manage
ment must carry on programs of
public education based on actual
accomplishments and on sound
policies and practices. Where
policies and practices are not in
accordance with the public well
fare, they must be corrected.
Granted that there is as much
honesty and decency in business
as in any other line of endeavor,
that is not enough. No one would
be willing to appoint as executor
of his will, a trust company that
claimed its trust officers were of
average honesty and decency.
Management's responsibility,
too, is trusteeship for employ
ers, stockholders and the public
requiring the same unquestioned
honesty and integrity. Intelligent,
forceful and enlightened proceed
ures - these traits can and must
become the accepted and requir-
ed standard. Management has the
same responsibility of, purging
itself of its few racketeer bust
nessmen as has organized labor
to purge itself of its few rack
eteer leaders.
For management to attain this
high goal, of course, the econo-
mic climate must be cleared and
kept free of hampering controls
and regulations. Business must
be encouraged, not discouraged,
as has been the case during the
20 years of the last two admins
trations. 1t is time for a change
at Washington, if the American
Capitalistic System of Free, Pri-
vate, Competitive Enterprise is
to be preserved and strengthen
ed SO that it can carry this ma
tion to even higher standards of
living.
That is the paramount issue to
bear in mind when pulling that
lever or marking that ballot on
Tuesday, November 4. - George
Peck.

war, for the reason we needed
rubber in hurry and private
industry did not have the money
to spend for research. But the
government is now about to offer
these plants for sale to private
industry.
The government owns some 800
munitions plants which cost ap-
proximately So billion dollars,
but for security reasons they
likely will not be offered for
sale.
On electric power, the govern
ment owns hydro-electric plants
worth several billions of dollars
it owns atomic energy plants
worth several billions more.
Getting back to the post office,
the department, or the govern
ment owns approximately $500
buildings and grounds through
cut the United States. Many of
these buildings are multi-purpose
buildings, housing other govern
ment operations along with the
post office. With its other physi-
cal property the post office de-
partment would inventory at
well over So billion dollars.
Unless the government gave it
away, where would the money
come from in private industry?
Private industry would have to
borrow the money, likely from
the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration, and then the govern
ment would be back in business.
Charles E. Wilson, erstwhile
defense mobilizer, has plan. He
would ask owners of government
bonds to exchange their bonds
for stock in new companies to be
fC med to run the power plants,
now government owned. The pri-
vate companies would gs' the
bonds, guaranteed by :he govern
rnent, but who would guarantee
the shares. Holders II us gov
erpment bonds, the soundest in
vestment III the woi Id, would be
regarded as slightly lunatic, if
they would exchange their bonds
for shares, unless the shares
woJid also be guaranteed by the
government, and there we would
be back in business again.
