Social Security
Law Change To
Affect z Million

The recent changes in the social
security law will affect over two
million more agricultural workers,
who are employees of farm opera
tors. Under the old law they had
to work for one farm employer on
a ful-time basis for several months
before their work for the employ
er started to count toward old-age
and survivors insurance. This
work regularity test for them has
been changed so that many more
farm employees will be brought
under social security for the first
time beginning January l, 1855.
The farm worker will be earning
old-age and survivors insurance
credits when he earns as much as
S1O0 in cash wages from any one
farm operator in a year. One hun
dred dollars in cash in the course
of year from any one farm en-
ployer is the minimum wage upon
which the farm employee may be-
gin to build his social security, ac-
cording to the Social Security Ad-
miniStration.

4-MiII Levy To
Provide $4,000
Extra If Voted

The London Board of Education
Monday sent out letter to par
ents asking the passage of the 4
mill school operating levy which
will come before the voters No
vember 2.
According to the information
contained in the letter, the Board
of Education stated that the in
crease is needed to raise teacher
salaries as well as the salaries of
the other school employees. The
Board also said that the levy is
needed to maintain present educa-
tional standards in the London
schools and that unless the issue
is met, it would be impossible to
hold teachers under present sal
ary conditions. Too, the letter sta
ted that unless wage standards are
increased, it would be impossible
to secure new teachers.
The levy if voted in would give
the school approximately $4,000
per year in added revenue of
which approximately $4,000
would go for salary increases,
Teacher pay raises would be bas-
ed on an average of $500 and $500
per teacher or about $4,000
Other school employees such as
janitors, cafeteria workers and
others would be increased in the
aggregate amout of approximately
$1,000. The balance of $1,000
would be put in the general oper-
ating fund, it was said.
The matter was discussed al
last weeks PIT A meeting held
at the school and it was decided
by the group that the levy should
be backed by the PIT A who ther
voted to support the levy's pass.
age. However, during the meeting
no reference was made to the hir.
ing of additional teachers at. this
time. The system now employe:
90 teachers who should the bono
issue pass, will receive about $500
additional on the average.
Board members are: Glenr
