CHANGES IN YOUR SOCIAL

BY ERNEST r. FITZPATRICK
MANAGER OF THE

SOCIAL SECURITY OFFICE)

ooSAhA oECOhlTt OFFICE)
Some employers are not a.
ware that their employees are
covered by the Federal social
security law, according to Ern-
est F. Fitzpatrick, district social
security manager at Wilmington,
IN. c. investigations by the Soc
ial Security Administration and
the Internal Revenue Service
are showing that some employ
ers are failing to file the necess-
airy yearly returns with the Di-
rector of Internal Revenue
while others are emitting en-
ployees who should have been
reported. This situation is par
ticularly prevalent among en-
ployers of seasonal and temper
airy workers, Fitzpatrick said.
AS a reminder to agricultural
employers, the Wilmington, N
C., manager pointed out that ex-
tensivc social security covcrage
tof farm workers first began in
1855. Beginning at that time the
law required reporting OF all
employees paid cash wages of
500 or more during a calendar
year. Starting with January l,
1857, the rule was changed SC
that 1T is now necessary for an
agricultural employer to report
all employees to whom he pays
$3.50 or more in cash wages in
a year and all time-haSic on,

He summarized the two legal
systems governing water use in
the United States. The western
states follow the statutory doct-

er which users take water on a

Outline Drought
Control Program

BY better water management
North Carolina can achieve
draught control that will pre-
vent a repetition of recent severe
shortages, the chairman Of the
State Board Of Water Commits
sioners said here Tuesday.
Gen. J. r. Townsend OF
Greensboro told the annual
meeting of the State Association
of Soil Conservation Supervisors
that shortages of the past oc-
CURED despite the fact that the
states overall water supply is
adequate for its needs
"The principal causes were
our carelessneSS with water and
weaknesses in our management
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1959-01-14

Seh. IOWnSend pointed to the
benefits possible from dams de-
signed for both flood ond
drought control. They provide
storage capacity to hold flood
waters and store additional wat
er which can be released in dry
seasons to keep streams flow
ing.
The proposed Wilkesboro Re-
servoir on the Yadk;n River is
of the flood-droaght control
type, he said, and the drought
control feature would permit "a
low flow of 352 million gallons
a day as against a recorded low
flow of 2l4 million gallons Q
day at Yadkin College"
He suggested that the same
principle can be used in the
small watershed improvement
program sponsored by the soil
conservation supervisors under
Federal Public Law 566. Under
the program the Federal govern
ment pays the cost of dams and
other works to control floods on
small watersheds.
THE basic flood-control dams
you plan can be enlarged and
become drought-control dams as
WELL" he said. THE reservoirs
can be designed to hold suttici-
ent water not only for maintain
ing stream flow below the dams
but also for irrigation ard any
other use.
II stress irrigation because
the problem of water for agri-
culture is one that the Board of
Water Commissioners feels most
keenly. 1t is a matter which is
in your hands, for you, the ag-
riculturists, are the ones con-
cerned. 1t is program for your
thinking as to the future"
He praised the contribution of
soil conservation practices to-
ward better management OF
land and water
Gen. Townsend advocated "a
strong state administrative az.
ency which has supervision anc
control over all the waters O.
the state"
The authority of this agency
should be such that there will
be an assumption by the state Of
responsibility for water re.
sources" he said. This does moi
imply the assumption of owner
ship of the waters; any law
must protect the rights of priv.

Studies Budget.
Fire Conditions
Holds Fire Drill
Tuesday At Local
Elementary School

A preliminary study Of the 1859
SO school operating budget came
under discussion of the Prince Ed
ward school board Monday night
at their regular meeting. Superin
tendent T. j. McIlwaine said the
board planned to present the bud
get to the board Of supervisors in
either March or April as is custo-
mary.
The board continued its study Of
fire protection in county schools.
Superintendent McIlW aine and
board chairman Roy R. Pearson
met with mayor w F. Watkins. Jr.
town manager E. L. Quisenberry
and fire chief Phillip F Gay Tues
day morning to spring a surprise
fire drill at Farmville Elementary
School,
The school was cleared in one
minute and 45 seconds McHWaine
said following the drill.
The school board has asked the
state fire marshall to inspect all Of
the schools i'll the county and to
submit reports to the school board
No date has been set for inspec-
tons
1t was noted at the school board
meeting that the school desegre-
cation case Of the school, board Of
Prince Edward County had been
appealed to the Federal district
court. which would probably hear
the case in April.
Budget Study
It is anticipated that tie school
board will come up next meeting
with budget that is very close TO
the current year budget of s769. 529
The budget will probably rise
little due TO increased pay Tor
teachers on the state level, and
this probably will be offset some
what by more state finds
The 1859 budget provides for
local funds of s348.2 29, anpllfied by
1859 800 in state funds. s33 800 in
special funds, and SO 900 in federal
lunch room funds.
Local funds during the current
year were held in line with last
years figures, while the increase iii
state funds reflected the overall n-
crease
The increased state funds enabled
the county to place all its degree
teachers on a $500 to So $50 mini
mum maximum salary scale.
