PROOF o. BIRTH DATE
NEEDED WHEN FILING
SOCIAL SECURITY CLAIM

Farmers who are giving up the
operation of their farms and in
tend to apply for old-age insur-
ance benefits should bring the
necessary proofs to support their
claims with them when they visit
the Social Security Administra-
alton district office. This advice
was offered today by James G.
Browne manager of the Juneau
social security office.
IF you have proof Of age and
earnings with you when you come
to the office it will speed up the
processing of your claim and
make return visit unnecessary"
Browne pointed out. A farmer
when he retires and applies for
old-age benefits will need extra
copies of his 1855 and 1866 Fed
eral income tax returns, proof Of
his age, his social security tax
receipts for 1855 and 1856, and
his social security account num-
Der card.
For a self-employed farmer
making claim for old-age. in
surance benefits, proof of earn
ings is a must He should bring
a cancelled check, money-order
stub, or some other evidence to
show that his income tax returns
for 1855 and 1856 were filed with
the District Director of Internal
Revenue.
If his wife has passed her 62nd
birthday and is making a claim
for old-age benefits at the same
time, it is important that she, too,
bring along proof of age. How
ever, if you do not have one, and
cannot obtain one within a rea-
sonable period Of time, don't put
off filing your claim for that rea-
son, Browne says. Usually people

Fire Safety Code
Prohibits Fireworks

dangerous fireworks that are
purchased or ordered after July
+ 1897 will be prohibited, it was
announced this week by &c
roberts territorial fire marshal
dangerous fireworks are prohib-
ted from being sold and explod-
60 IN Alaska as Of December 5.
1896 by the adoption of a Fire
safety Code. Provisions for adop-
non OF the Fire Safety Code were
provided by a bill passed by the
1855 Territorial Legislature Meet
ing. The office of the Territorial
Fire Marshal will enforce the pro
visions Of prohibiting the sale
and use Of dangerous fireworks.
Stocks and supplies of fire
works in the Territory before
July 4, 1857 will not be a controll-
ed. This will permit dealers in
fireworks to dispose of stocks and
not suffer a monetary loss.
This ruling has become neces-
sary, it was pointed out, due to
the delay in publicizing the new
regulations on dangerous fire.
works. Copies of the new Fire
Safety Code are now printed and
will be distributed as soon as pos
gible.
Ordinances prohibiting the sale
or use Of dangerous fireworks
within cities or towns are not af-
fected by this ruling and where
such regulations are in effect, the
sale or use of dangerous fire
works is prohibited.
