SOCIAL
SECURITY

Every unemployed person
should know that coverage I'M
der the new Social Security
program is compulsory, that
taxes on self-employment in
come earned in 1858 will be due
on or before March Is, 1854,
that the amount of Social Sc
curity tax will range from 50
to SOL depending on the
amount of net profit, and
that each self-employed per-
son reporting must have a So
cial Security number" states
Mr.. Gerald Murphy, manager
of the Roxbury Social Security
Office.
Mr., Murphy continues, Many
self-employed people seem to
think coverage under the pro-
gram is voluntary. This is not
true. If person is a solo owner
or a partner in trade or bust
ness and has self employment
net earnings Of $500 or more
during 1858, the law requires
that he must report his earn
ings and pay the Social Security
tax on or before March IS of
this year. Only self-employment
earnings up to $4,000 a year
count towards Old-Age and
Survivors Insurance. The Fed
eral income tax form will have
a special section for making
this report"
Equally important" he adds.
"is the protection now afforded
the self employed and mem
bers of their families. Retire

to dependent parents and de-
pendent widowers. In all death
cases of an insured worker, a
lump sum is paid"
Mr.. Murphy advises all self
employed persons to ask at the
Roxbury Social Security office
for a copy of the pamphlet

which is furnished free, and
explains the rights and obi
cations under Social Security
Four out of five mothers and
children in this country are now
protected by the Survivors In
surance provisions of the Social
Security program. The 1850
and 1852 amendments to the
Social Security Law extended

born on February IL and Feb.
IA, respectively, tho some his
torians place their births on
same day; Feb. IL. Lincoln
was intimately known as "Hon-
est Abe, The Great Emancipa-
tor, Douglass was noted as,
The Distinguished Abolitionist.
The two men were among stall
wart pioneers, who espoused
the Colored Mans freedom
from slavery in America, be-
fore The Civil War. Biogra-
pliers wrote that Lincoln had
opened the door of privilege for
the Black men, women and
children to enter into the polit-
ical and civil life of the world. |
His love for Justice was only |
equalled by his delight in COM
passion. His honesty was
above suspicion. We are proud |
of his greatness. Douglass was
a grand pattern of Lincoln's
above description and even is
credited with squirting the pre-
sident to free the slaves. They
consolidated their efforts with
unselfsh ideals that all human
beings were equal before the
law; that a nation could not
stand, "half free, half slave"
Among the % American
G.I's who will not accept re-
patriation to their native land,
it is stated, are several colored
soldiers who have not left the
Korean stockade. Thousands
Of Colered veterans, now liv-
ing, who served in all of Am
erica's wars, rebellions, insur-
rections and police actions,
when they read the above, will
become amazed. Americas sol
diers are the highest paid war
riors in the world. When such
ingratitude is demonstrated by
backward to receive them again
men whose nation is leaning
in the folds of heroic represent
alton, it seems Incompetent
sible that men of. this type were |
born to be free and equal. |
These are harsh words. Your !
columnist is under great re-
straint to dig deeper into the
gutter of vulgarity for exact
phrases to describe properly
these military outcasts of the
Korean police action. It may
be way out when the whole
truth is disclosed, of why they
remain obdurate, that an inner
conscience, not yet revealed
0verwhelms them. Then, prob
ably they may be more to be

long strides of the human race
on the way to Peace. Just
through watching Strike 1t
Rich" on the TV, 1 know that
the Almighty is putting Peace,
Good viii. Love and Brother
hood into the hearts of His
instruments. Business concerns

are hearing about conditions Of
distress through radio and TV
and they are distributing relief
to worthy persons, regardless
Of color, race nationality, creed,
or anything else but Brother
hood. Can we observe such
evidences of the eternal, per-
petual progress of His program,
and have any doubts as to
which is winning? Jesus pro-
phesied Peace, the Spokesman
of the Holy Spirit. Every time
I see or hear anything which
is evidence Of the fulillment of
His Gospel, I applaud in my
