HOW SOCIAL SECURITY
BENEFITS may BE INCREASED

Those people who are per-
manently disabled from sub
stantial gainful employment
and have Seen disabled at
least six months should look
into the possibility of pro-
tecting their social security
rights, Mr.. Henry e. Good
nough, manager of the Chel-
sea social security district
office, said today.
The 1854 Amendments to
the Social Security Act pro-
vide for freezing" of a
disabled PERSONS earnings re-
cords as of the onset of the
disability. This means that
when his or her earnings re-
cord is averaged for purposes
of paying either retirement
or survivors benefits, the
earnings average and the
benefit amounts will not be
lowered by including all of
the time the worker was pro-
vented from having substan-
tial earnings by reason of his
disability.
However, Mr.. Goodnough
says, he believes that many
people who are eligible for
the disability freeze are not
aware of this provision of the
law, or are not aware of the
effect it can have one the old |
age and survivors insurance
benefits pay able to them or |
to their family. He pointed |
out that it is particularly |
important for people who may |
be eligible for the freeze"
TO contact their district Of
flee as soon as possible, or
if they are unable to do so
to have some member of the {
family, or a close friend, get /
in touch with the office for
them.
THE reason it is so i'm
portant to contact the social
security office is that begin
ming as early as July Of this
year, benefit amounts can oe
increased for those people
who become eligible for bene-
fits on the record of a worker
who has been disabled" Mr.
Goodnough declared. This is
true for survivorship bene-
fits as well as for retirement
benefits, and is particularly
true for those people whose
disability has extended for
more than a few years. A per-
iod for more than few
years. A period of disability
cannot be omitted from figu-
ring the average earnings OF
the worker unless the worker
himself, or someone on his
behalf, has made application
before his death.
experimenting this word of
warning, Mr.. Goodnough ex-
planned some other provisions
OF the freeze. To qualify for
the freeze, in addition to be-
ing disabled, the worker must
have had certain amount
Of work under social security.
The requirement is that he or
she worked at least years
out Of the 10 years before the
disability started and at least
year and a half Of this !
work must have been in the
3 years before the disability /
started.
Another important provision
is that IL the disability had |
its start before July 1856. the
freeze application must be !
filed before July 1857, to be
effective for the entire period |
Of the disability.

Water resources in our sec.
ton of the country are more and
more attracting the attentionNof
official Washington. 1 have
found that the Members of the
Senate and the House are becom-
ing interested in the many rami-
fications of the water resources
problems. I have had my office
at work on many aspects of the
water problem as they have an
immediate bearing on the 9th
Congressional District of Mary
land.
Foremost, and of immediate
Importance is the problem of
flood control. I have reported
to you the progress we have
made with respect to the specific
hazard in parts of Western
Maryland. We believe that we
are making progress in the over
all handling of both controlling
the floods in our streams and in
conserving the soil.
But flood control is Just one
of the difficulties our rivers and
streams present. Our water re-
sources are important to us for
the many uses to which water
is put these days and of equally
great value for recreational pur-
poses. am sure that all of the
people of our District recognize
this. And they further are aware
of the fact that our streams need
to be clean.
I am particularly grateful to
those citizen groups which have
made as one of the goals of their
associations the prevention of
pollution in all of our rivers.
Such a special organization as
the Western Maryland Clean
Streams Council can do a great
deal of good in marshalling pub
lie support for eliminating pollu-
ton from our water resources.
My office is investigating
every means of approach in
any effort to search out the
most satisfactory methods of
restoring the Potomac River
to @ source of good clean and
healthful water. There is no
need for the people of our
District to have to fOregO
tho recreationaI benefits of
the river areas because of a
dangerous health condition
resulting from impure water.
Water transportation is no
longer with us, but we are all
faced with the difficulties pre-
sented by our present systems of
mass transportation. Last week

Well, at last that first har-
binger of spring has made his
appearance. On Mar 3 1 was
gladdened by the plaintive song
of a robin, a lone one too, not
a whole flock as one usually
sees.
Anyhow now as l type this mar
rative there are others who have
made the journey north, perhaps
all do, not know that the males
do make the journey some weeks
ahead of the females setting up
their claims to their favori e
feeding and nesting places often
fighting fiercely even to the
death to prove their claim to a
specific area.
With the last few days of rain
which it has been our special
joy to behold, we're glad to re-
port that we haven't heard of any
more wells running dry. The
grass has begun to show green
and the many early blooming
plants and shrubs are showing
unm t a k b lie signs of early
blooming, one just has to rejoice.
Soon the forsythia and japonica
will make a riot of yellow and
red blossoms joined by the ever
early jasmine of purest gold. OF
course no lawn can afford to
neglect a few clumps of crocus
as they come earliest of all.
We've noticed this year that
the tulips, narcissus, jonquils are
very early, and a most unusually
early showing of the Mystery
Lily whose large leaves come
up very lushly, and remain for
several weeks then ddenly
they're gone and just about the
last weeks of June you're looking
for the tall straight stalk which
appears without any leaves at all
and you see it not. Then one
morning there it is with a com
plete circlet of buds which burst
forth in all of their pink glory,
lasting for several days. So won
derful is the beauty of spring one
just can't doubt the "Resurrec-
ton"
