Information On
Social Security
BY Luther N. Davis

On June S, 1854, Richard Cook
seemed to be in his usual robust
health. The 54-year-old mill
worker put in his customary shift
at the plywood plant, and was in
good spirits when he went to bed.
On the morning of June", he
failed to come downstairs for
breakfast. His wife found him
crumpled on the floor beside the
bed, victim of sudden cerebral
thrombosis, commonly known as
stroke"
For the past two and a half
years, Richard Cook has been un-
able to utter a word. He sits part
of each day in a wheelchair, but
he cannot move the chair in a
straight line, because one side
Of his body is completely para
lyzed He can feed himself with
his left hand; it's a slow process,
but time is one thing that Rich
ard Cook doesn't lack. His doc
tors say there is less than a $3.50
chance that he will ever be able
to speak or walk, and almost no
chance that he will be able to
work again. However, he may
live for good many years.
Since the illness began, Mr..
and Mrs. Cook have lived on their
savings, plus little income from
a house they rent. He has not
been eligible for any disability
payments from the Federal or
State governments.
Richard Cook will be one of
the first to qualify for the new
Social Security benefits for dis
abled people over the age of so,
which start in July of 1857. His
application is already in, backed
by reports from his doctors de-
scribing his condition.
Starting in July, Mr.. Cook will
receive $98.50 a month, based on
his earnings of $4,000 a year up
to the time he had his stroke.
After Mr.. Cook is IS and his wife
81, she can receive an additional
$500 a month based on her hus-
bands Social Security Account;
Or if she wishes to defer her pay
ments until she is IS, she will get
$49.30 a month.
If the disability provisions of
the Social Security law had not
been enacted, no payment could
have been made to Mr.. Cook until
1865, when he reached age IS.
And his years of disability would
have diluted" his Social Secur-
ity benefits, so the payments at
that time would have been con-
siderably smaller.
For additional information
about the new Social Security
provisions for disabled workers,
ask your local Social Security Of
flee for a free booklet. The office
for this area is located in the
Carpenters Building, Hatties-
burg, Miss.
