Higher Social
Security Benefits
To Be Paid In Sc

Higher monthly social security
benefits will be payable to some
workers and self employed persons
retiring in 1856. This important
announcement was made today by
Mr.. Albert w. Boehringer, manager
of the district office at 10002
Euclid ave. However, individuals
65 and older are advised to first
contact the Social Security office
before leaving their employment.
In many cases, higher payments
may be made possible by working
in the first half of 1856.
This increase in the benefits of
some workers retiring after 1856 is
provided for by the 1854 change in
the law which raised the maximum
amount of earnings taxable from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year. This pro-
vision went into effect in 1856.
The new maximum monthly re-
tirement payment Of $1O8.50 be-
comes payable in the second half of
1856. To qualify for this amount,
the 65 year old worker must have
earned $4,000 in 1855 and $2100 in
the first half of 1856. Workers re-
tiring at the end of 1866 can
qualify for $103.50 a month, pro-
viding that $4,000 was earned in
1866 and $4,000 in any one other
year since 1850.
Mr.. Boehringer made these ad-
ditional timely remarks about social
security projections: Students work.
ing part time, or even temporarily
full time, during the holiday season,
or at any period of the year, should
have account number cards. EN-
ployers need the numbers to report
the wages correctly on the quarter
ly tax returns. When a student
works and is paid as little as $50
during a calendar quarter, he is
acquiring social security insurance
credit. Benefits can eventually be
paid on such basis. Acquiring of
credits from part time and temp
orary work applies also to house
wives and other persons who are in
and out of the labor market.
In concluding, Mr.. Boehringer
emphasized that an application
must be filed to obtain benefits.
The place to apply for benefits or
to get either an original or dupli-
cate social security card is at the
East Side district office at 10OO2
Euclid ave. There is no charge for
this service.
