Earnings Up to $4,000 This Year
VIII Be Credited to Your Account

Your earnings up to $4,000 this
year will be credited to your So
cial security account, Myron Mil
bouer, district manager of the
Wilmington social security Office,
has reminded all working people.
The 1854 Amendments to the So
cial Security Act increased the
amount of yearly earnings from
employment or self-employment
which will be reported for social
security purposes from $500 to
$500 effective January 1, 1855.
If you are paid more than $4,000
in 1855 check your pay stubs to
be sure you are getting this add
ed credit toward larger future
benefits. If you are self-employ-
ed, be sure to report your covered
net earnings up to $4,000 when
you file your Federal income tax
report for 1855.

S162.80 a month instead of S147.80
The qualified survivors of a per-
son who had average monthly
earnings of $3.50 will also receive
increased benefit payments. For
example the monthly benefit pay
ments to the 65 year old widow of
such a worker would be S81.40 in
stead of the $3.50 it would have
been if only average monthly
earnings up to $500 counted to-
ward social security. A widow
and two children under 18 years
of age would receive 5000 a
month.
The local manager added that
if a worker first becomes entitled
to BENEFITS in 1856 or dies in that
year, has an average monthly
wage of $3.50, and has acquired al
least six quarters of coverage be-
ginning January 1, 1855 through
the quarter of entitlement or
death, benefits to him or his sur
vivors may be based on the $3.50
average monthly earnings figure.
