SIS. BENEFITS
TO BE HIGHER
Payments to Retired Workers
To Range from $40 to $50
Says A. b. Rinaldi
AVERAGE $50 TO $50

Social security benefits for
many people now filing claims will
generally be higher" Albert B. Ri
naldi, Acting Manager of the Social
Security office, Wilmington, said
last week. Payments to a retired
worker will range from $50 and $50
monthly with the average expected
to be around $50 to $780," Mr.. Ri
naldi explained that the amend
ments to the Social Security Act
passed in 1850 provided for a new
method of figuring benefits when
the worker has had at least a year
and a half of work after 1850. The
new benefit formula bases the Soc
ial security benefit on the average
monthly wage beginning January
i, 1851, instead of averaging the
wages all the way back to January
i, 1887. In most cases the wages
during 1851 and 1852 have averag-
ed more per month than during the
past Is years, and a higher social
security benefit results. Mr.. Ri
naldi pointed out that this is not
an automatic increase for people
already receiving benefits Their
rate will stay the same unless they
are under rs and should return to
work for about year and half
to requalify under the new form
ula. During 1852 there may be
difference in the benefit amount de-
pending on when the application is
filed, Mr.. Rinaldi said. He urged
everyone who is 65 or over and who
plans to retire in 1852 to consult
the social security Office for the
figcres applying to his case. He
can then decide when would be the
best time for him to file his appli-
cation. In the case of self-employ-
ed people retiring this year, their
benefits will generally be lower if
they apply for benefits before jan
uary 1, 1858.

The following resolution was
adopted Unanimously at a special
meeting of the Kent County Fire
mems Association held in the Do

at 500 pm.
RESOLUTION
Whereas. the volunteer fire COM
panies in the State of Delaware
have rendered valuable service in
preventing and fighting fires and
in protecting millions of dollars of
property and thousands of lives;
and
Whereas, a large part Of the nee
essary income to maintain and
support such volunteer fire COM
panies has come from the income
derived from carnivals; and
Whereas, present interpretations Of
the laws Of the State of Delaware
make it impossible legally to con-
duct such carnivals, thereby elm
mating an essential source of rev.
enue and jeopardizing the continu-
ance of some of the volunteer fire
companies in the State, therefore
Be 1t Resolved, that the under
signed unanimously urges the Gov
ernor of the State of Delaware to
call a special session of the Legis-
lature and the members of the gen.
eral assembly to enact Legislation
to legalize the CHANGING of autonao-
biles and other practices formerly
engaged in at carnivals, where the
proceeds are used exclusively for
charitable, religious, or educational
purposes or for the benefit of vol

Red Cross Sets
SIS Million Goal
For March Drive
National Quote Called
Absolute Minimum
For Added Services

The American Red Cross today
announced a goal of $85 million
for its 1852 national fund cam
paign, scheduled for March.
E. Roland Hartman, Red Cross
president. called the goal an "ab-
solute minimum" to support
greatly expanded services to the
armed forces, the Red Cross blood
program, disaster services and
other activities.
"At no time other than in the
midst of a worldwide war has
there been greater or more i'm
pelling human need for the
people to meet through their Red
Cross" Mr.. Hartman stated.
Double Staff for Military.
''For our armed forces alone it
has been necessary to double the
Red Cross field staff serving mill
tary installations" he pointed out,
adding:
Ceases handled by our personnel
at camps and hospitals increased
so per cent last year over the
year before, and our armed forces
continue to grow"
John S. Sinclair of New York,
president of the National Indus
trial Conference Board, will head
the national drive. It will run
from March l to 81.
Reports on Blood Program.
Mr.. Hartman reported that the
Red Cross blood program pro-
vided more than / million pints
of blood for wounded fighting men
last year, as well as 1928, 500 pints
for civilians. The organization
now is operating 43 regional
blood centers-for both civilians
and military-and IL centers for
the armed forces exclusively.
The Red Cross head said the
fund goal actually must be over
subscribed in order to carry out
the Red Cross work of mercy.
"The Red Cross is an organiza-
ton made up of the people them
selves" he declared. when it
acts, anywhere, it is the people
acting in behalf of those in need,
doing what each individual would
do if he were at the scene of
disaster or at a soldiers side in
Korea. And it is the people who
make Red Cross work possible
through their volunteer efforts
and contributions"
