Higher Social Security
Benefits Soon Due
Last OF Old Rate Payments Are
In The Mail

Social Security checks mailed
September 3rd to 1000 Delaware
people were the last under the old
rates of payment, according to My
ron MilbOuer, manager OF the VIII
mington social security Office. Pay
ments due to the same people early
in October will amount to $466,000.
AS a result Of changes made in
the social security law in July,
nearly everyone receiving Old-age
and survivors insurance benefits
will get higher payments. Most re-
tired workers will receive increas-
es ranging from So to $3.50. In
creases for dependents and surviv-
ors will be less than those for re-
tired workers. In most cases, these
increases will be about 81 to IS.
For example," Mr.. MilbOuer
says, " retired insured worker
whose August payment is $40. bas-
ed on earnings received since 1896,
will get a September payment early
in October Of $45; a worker who
got $6S.50 in the current check will
get $77.1O the first week in cctO-
ber."
Mr.. MiIbOuer says that it will
not be necessary for Delawareans
now getting old-age and survivors
insurance payments to write OF
come to the Wilmington social Sc
curity office to get the increases
The checks they will receive early
in October will automatically carry
the increased amounts.
