] he second most important Office in the
American government today is, beyond all
question, the Vice Presidency. The Vice
President is. in the eyes Of the US. public
and in the eyes of the world, the No. 2 man
in Washington. The burden Of his job is
terrific. And make no mistake about II, that
burden is not temporary: il is going TO
belong TO every Vice President. Republican
or Democrat, from here on.
Yet this highly important official Of the
worlds richest and most powerful country
is equipped with inadequate tools. His

all insufficient And he has no official resi-

Political Dead End
The reason for this shabby and short
sighted treatment of our Vice Presidents is
not hard to find. II stems from the fact that
for almost $50 years the Vice Presidency was
regarded political dead end. John Adams,

he had been Governor Of Massachusetts,

goes that the Senate doorkeeper refused to

However, even if an applicant
doesn't have a birth certificate or
baptismal certificate, he may use
a number of other records to
establish proof of age to the sat
isfaction of social security Off
cials. Without knowing it, most
people in their lifetime leave
trail of records behind them.
There's one thing to bear in mind
though--the evidence should show
month and year of birth. There
are many documents which show
a persons age at certain time,
but usually evidence of this sort
is acceptable only if it is accom-
panied by something else which
shows month of birth.
Generally speaking, the older
the record, the more acceptable
it is. Here are some of the sourc-
es of proof of age, if a birth cel{
tificate or baptismal certificate
are not available:
1. Hospital birth record, certi-
fed by the custodian of such re-
cord.
2. A foreign church or govern
ment record.
8. A signed statement by the
physician or midwife who was in
attendance at birth, as to the
date of birth shown on their re-
cords.
4. Family Bible, or other family
record. (Do not remove pages
from the Bible.)
5. Naturalization records.
6. immigration records.
7. Military record.
8. Passport.
9. School record.
10. Vaccination record.
IL. An insurance policy which
shows the age or date of birth
IL, Labor union or fraternal
record certified by the custodian
of such record.

SOCIAL SECURITY TO WOMEN
Changes in Law Makes Women
Eligible at Age So

Recent changes in the social Sc
curity law which made women
eligible for monthly payments as
early as age 81 have created some
problems of proof.
Local social security officials
point out that the usual require
ment that an applicant be able
to prove his age applies to wives
and widows as well as to retired
workers. Women have always
had more difficulty in proving
their age" said Myron Milbouer,
manager of the Wilmington office
Most housewives have far less
occasion to establish documentary
evidence than do their working
husbands"
Milbouer also stated that a
birth certificate is the best proof
of ones age, but it is not the
only proof. A baptismal certifi-
cate certified by the custodian of
the church records is also accept
able. S.
