Social Security News

The age of a worker or a self-em-
ployed person makes no difference
so far as reporting wages or self
employment income for social Sc
curity purposes is concerned. This
claritication of wage and self-em-
plOyment income reporting require
ments was made by Myron Mil
bOuer, manager of the Delaware
Social Security Office, in response
to many inquiries as to whether
wages paid a worker who is past
age 65 must be reported.
There seems to be an impression
that persons over IS are exempt
from social security taxes. This is
not true" Mr.. Milbouer said
Wages paid an individual for work
on a job covered by social security
or self-emplOyment income earned
in a trade or business under social
security must be reported irrespec-
1 tive of the individuals age"
Another erroneous belief is that
once a person has qualified for old
age and survivors insurance pay
ments, he is no longer required to
pay the social security tax. This
question is raised most frequently
by who are over age IS and are,
! therefore, entitled to collect their
monthly insurance payments while
continuing to earn more than SIS
month on a job under social Sc
curity. Wages paid such individuals
must be reported" Mr.. Milbouer
emphasized.
The same rule applies at the
other end of the age scale. Wages
paid a yOungster at any age, if for
job under social security, should
be reported, Mr.. MilbOuer explained.

BAPTIsTs BUY REDS HALL

DETROIT - (P) - A favorite
meeting place for Detroit COmmun-

brick building frequented for years
by various Red groups has been
purchased by the A. C. Williams
Missionary Baptist Church for
$65, 900.
The move was annoying to sub
versive organizations but proved
even a harder blow to police, who
will have to ferret out the new
meeting grounds.
In its hey-day as a Communist
conference hall, police cars were
said to vie with subversives for
choice parking spaces in front. The
main doors served as a backdrop
