ations during which nearly $50
million in Federal relief funds
have been allocated to 38 States,
Alaska, and Hawaii

order, FCDA was assigned the re-
sponsibility of coordinating the ac-
tivities of all Federal agencies in
natural disaster relief, in addition
to its function of organizing the
Nations non-military defense a.
gainst enemy attack.
Since that time, the agency re-
ported, more than 90 disaster
areas have received relief. The dis
asters involved Is floods, 10 hur-
ricanes, nine tornadoes, multiple
droughts, an earthquake, forest
fire, and a volcano eruption in Ha-
waii.
The largest allotment of funds
for a single disaster-nearly $50
million-went to the Northeastern
States stricken by the record
floods which followed Hurricane
Diane in the fall of 1855.
A good part of the total alloca-
tions-S3512 million--was for re-
lief of multiple drought disasters

Workers Planning
Retirement Should
Consult S. S. Agent

Those workers planning on
retiring during 1856 should talk
over their retirement plans with
a representative of the social Sc
curity office prior to actually
retiring" Chester Buchanan, rep
resentative of the Billings social
security office said today.
Because of special provisions
made in the law to insure euuit-
able treatment of the groups
newly covered by social security,
the date on which an applica-
ton for retirement benefits is
filed can have a substantial ef-
feet on the size of the monthly
check which the worker will re-
ceive from the Social Security
Administration.
For that reason we urge those
who plan to retire in the near
to discuss with us their

explain to them the effect of FL
ing their application at various
times so that they can choose
that time most to their advan-
