Jesse Lee Gorden Shows From s-liwoy

That nice looking garden spot west of the highway between the Seward Sanatorium and the first bridge is the property of the Jesse Lee Home and ye cdi- tor deems 1t propituous at this time to inform the public of that, especially in view of the fact that about three years ago some people got the idea the garden was public property and helped themselves to considerable amount oI the produce.
 The children from the Home put in a lot of time and effort on that garden and the proper thing for the cItIzcnry to do is to let them reap the harvest.

New Amendments to Social Security Law To Benefit Many

Many people in the Seward area will receive higher social security pa y m c n s beginning carly in October as a result of the social security amendments which President Truman signed into law last Friday
 James C. Browne, manager of the Juneau social security office. emphasized that no enc needs 10 apply for the iocr asad pay mcnts. "ThG Social Security Ad- mInistraUon ls already changing the amounts" he pointed ou.. We expect to get them changed in time so have them in the mail October ,, the regular delivery date, but if in a ion. cases we don't meet that schedule we'll send the regular check and make up the difference n later check.
 MT. Browne said that although nearly every family receiving payments would receive an in crease, the additional amount would not always be divided among all the members of the family receiving monthly checks. In some cases the entire increase will go to the retired worker.
 Amount of the increase for retired worker will range from $500 to S8.60, with the average about S6.0O. Where several mem bcrs of a family are receiving payments, the total increase to the family can be as much as S18.9O. A few benefits now being paid, and most of those payable in the future, will e2 based on earnings after 1850 in stead of after 1886. The amended law provides a new formula for determining the amount of the payments in these cases. Under lI q retired worker $ monthly benefit would be 55 per cent Ot the first S1O0 of his average monthly earnings plus l5 per cent of the remainder up td s390 :
 Beginning September l. the new law increased to S75 a month instead of $50 the amount of money beneficiary may earn and still receive the monthly benefits. SCIf-cmpIOyed people entitled to old-age and survivors insurance may receive the pay mtnts for each month of the year If their net earnings the entire year are not over $500.
 The amended law contains a provision of special importance to seii-cmpIoyed people who have retired or plan to retire during 1852. Before the passage of the amendments their earn lngs for the year in which an application was made could not be used to figure their old-age benefit payments. Now, those selr-emplOyed people who ori- ginally applied for benefits in 1852 may re-apply at the close of the taxable year and have their 1852 earnings used in fig uring their monthly benefit pay ments. In general, this will in crease the monthly benefit to self-employed persons.
 
 A similar change in the law now permits insured wage earn CTS who retire in 1852 to have their wages for this year used immediately in f guring the amount of their benefit pay mentS. Heretofore, it was neces- sary~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 compu- tation of the benefit amount.
 Another amendment a lows beneficiaries aged 75 or over already on the rolls to take ad- vantage of the higher benefit payments provided under the new formula, if they have had at least year and a half of
