to believe his actions would not only be thoroughly
proved by the young southern gentlemen at Georgia

Members of Virgil Bell Post ITO,
Veterans of Foreign Wars are dedi-
eating this column to the men and
women of our community who
have served honorably in the Uni
ted States armed forces, and to our
neighbors who have fought in de-
fense of this country to preserve
our way of life.
The sacrifices they made and
the deeds they performed shall be
written in history. We express sim
cerely our pride and gratitude for
the tasks they fulfilled.
To win the victory was proof of
your unselfish loyalty to your ma
ton. To make sure the victory was
worth the winning we urge that
those of you who have not, should
join together as VFW members for
a better understanding of what the
VFW is doing for betterment of all
peoples. Veterans and nOn-veterans

ing active in the VFW in 1948
Commander Primous has had the
honor of serving as a member of
the VFW National Loyalty Day
Committee, Loyalty Day Chairman
for the department of Arizona; and
Senior Vice-Commander of the
third district; all positions he still
maintains.
Comrade Primous operates "The
Barbecue King" at 2439 E. Broad

ginning at $50 pm. All veterans
are welcome, as this will also for
mally open our membership drive.
Remember, you have served your
country in the face of hazard and
danger, but it still deserves your
highest devotion at all times, in
peace as we'll as in war.
In this organization you are priv
ileged to mingle with Comrades

It's Your Money
By D. 3. Gallagher

frequently readers ask US to
handle their social security
problems on D fee basis. Our
help is free and comes as q
service of The Star. There are
over 500 social security field Of
fees throughout the country to
handle individual problems. Our
aim is to advise when, where and
how to earn social security cred
its and apply for benefits.
@. 81 lost my uncle and don't
understand why was paid only
$50 social security, which only
paid part Of the funeral ex-
penses. All ! was told was that
was all ! had coming. He had o
wife. but they were divorced.
Can you help MEM. K.
A. The $s8 you received repre-
sented the lump sum which b
made to the person paying the
burial expense when there Is
neither an accredited wife nor
husband of the deceased. Had
you not paid the burial expense,
you wouldn't have been entitled
to the $88. Social security Is pc
culiar in this respect. Depend
ents and survivors are fully de-
fined. and no exceptions are ever
made. For practical administra-
ton. it must be that way. Just
remember there are over 100
million persons insured under
the social security program.
