FOR OLD-AGE PROTECTION
Deadline Approaching For Clergy
men To Have Earnings Credited

Deadline Approaching For Clergy
men To Have Earnings Credited
The April 18th deadline is fast
approaching for those clergymen
who elect to have their 1855 earn
ings credited for old-age and sur
vivors insurance protection, ac-
cording to Myron Bilbouer, dis
trict manager of the Social Sc
curity Administration. Ministers
and certain members of religious
orders must exercise their option
to become covered by the law on
or before that date by filing Form
2031 with the District Director of
Internal Revenue; otherwise they
forfeit their right to participate
in the program beginning with the
calendar year 1855.
Mr.. Milbouer explained that the
same protection the social secur-
ity law grants to most workers
and self-employed individuals on
a compulsory basis has now been
extended to clergymen on an in
dividual elective basis. If min
lister wishes to take part in this
social insurance program begin
ming with his 1855 taxable year,
he must formally indicate his de-
sire by completing and filing a
waiver certificate prior to paying
his Federal income tax. The
church he serves is not involved
in any way because each clergy
man who elects coverage is treat
ed as a self-employed person, and
his church cannot become obh-
gated for any liability as an en-
ployer.
Form 20S1 (waiver Certificate
for Use by Ministers, Certain
Members of Religious Ordersg and
Christian Science Practitioners
Electing Coverage under Title II
of the Social Security Act), when
filed with the District Director of
Internal Revenue, makes it possi-
BILE to treat his income from SER
vices performed in the exercise of
his ministry as though his earn
ings were derived from self-em-
ployment, even though he may in
fact be salaried employee.
This election must be made
within two years and once a cler-
gyman chooses this optional cov-
erage he cannot withdraw his di-
cision. He must contribute so
cial security tax amounting to 8
per cent of his net earnings at
the same time he files his FEEDER
al income tax return for each
year his net earnings amount to
S400 or more from his ministerial
duties. However, he does not pay
a social security tax on earnings
above $4,000. The ordinary and
necessary expenses incurred in the
performance of his service as a
minister are, of course, deducti-
BILE from the gross income In COM
putting his net earnings.
By reporting and contributing
a percentage of his earnings each
year a clergyman is building up
future financial security prepara-
tory to his retirement. Or, in the

Some Camellia Damage
Watch for freeze damage to
broadleaved evergreens, aZaleas
and camellias. Many of the
flowers and large buds on the
camellias were hurt and will fall
off. The buds on the lower
branches were more protected
and not so ready to open so they
may open later and give good
bloom. Azaleas seem not to be
much damaged.
Compost Pile
1t is a good idea to turn the
compost pile now. If a low spot
Is left in the center of the pile
to catch ram, the composing
may be speeded up.
Mulch Warning
Be sure to leave the mulch
around the azaleas. rhodendrons

cultivate around these shallow
rooted plants. Pull any weeds by
hand; fertilize. and add more
mulch. if necessary - sawdust

genuine.
