CANCER EDUCATION
Dear DR.. SteincrOhn: I
have been hearing less wall
ing and crashing Of teeth
from people who complained
Of ''too much cancer public
ity." I'm glad that at last
they're getting to be more
sensible and thankful for the
information. Sincerely, Mr..
H. G.
You will be interested in this
quotation from "Today's
Health: Prom q survey of $50
people, Drs. Robert Samp and
Anthony Currieri of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin Tunnor
Clinic find that most cancer
patients and their families feel
that cancer education saves
lives. and is not producing fear
Of the disease"
It has been my experience,
too, that people are at last be-
ginning to realize that a little
medical knowledge is not dam
gerous." The other day a busi-
nessman said to me: I'm alive
today because I happened to
pick up the paper one night
and read about the warning

be this way?
Mrs. L. R.--My husband and

Frank was q very nice boy and
Charlotte just seemed TO flow

Your number distinguishes
your record from the record Of
anyone else because no one
else has the same number.
Thus. you should use the same
number all your life.
Any social security once win
issue you q social security card
with your number on it--or Q
duplicate card with your num-
Der to replace one that has
been lost.
II your name has been
changed. ask your social Sc
|curity ONCE for q new card
showing the same number and
your new name.
Because Of the possibility Of
an error in your social security
record, the Social Security Ad-
|ministration makes 1t easy for
you to check your record.
An error could result in any
number Of ways. Your en-
ployer could fail to report part
of your earnings. Your earn
ings could accidentally be re-
corded under someone else's
number. You might give your
employer the wrong number.
Catching Errors
The social security people
have ways to catch such errors.
but they don't catch them all.
So, part Of the load Of pro-
tecting your record rests on
your shoulders.
You may check your record
as often as once q year by writ
ing TO the Social Security Adj
ministration. Gambler Bldg.

for q statement Of your ac-
count. You can get an adj
dressed postcard form at your

If you find that an error has
been made in your record, any

you get It corrected.
You should check on your
record at least once every three
years, since there's a limit to
the period within which GER
tain corrections can be made.
