New Groups Covered
By Socioi Security
For First Time

October, 1859, will be a signifl-
cant month for farmers as wei
as other self-employed persons
who became covered under social
security for the first time since
beginning in 1855.
Luther H.. Bolton, District Man
/ ager of the Greenwood social Sc
| curity office, explained that effect
i've with October, disability pro-
| lection will have been earned by
/ many formers as well IS members
| of the other newly covered groups.
Since only workers with at least
five years coverage GO q%uarters)
under social security are eligible
for disability protection, those who
became covered for the first time
in January, 1855, could not, pos
sibly have acquired their goth
quarter of coverage prior to Oc-
tober, 1859.
Mr.. Bolton emphasized that dis
ability protection is of vital i'm
portance for three reasons:
ID Cash disability benefits are
provided for disabled workers SO
to SIS years of age, and their de-
pendents;
(2} Disabled workers under so
years of age can "freeze" their
social security records to protect
their own and their families flu
ture benefit rights;
CD Cash disability benefits are
provided for the adult disabled chill
dren of retired or deceased work
ers.
The disabled persons right to
disability benefits at age so, or for
the Greece" provision, under age
so, is based not only on the re-
quirement of having five years of
work out of the ten years pre-
ceding disability, but the disabled
person must be completely help
less, but his disability must be so
severe that it prevents him from
doing any kind of substantial gain
full work, and such condition must
have lasted at least six months.
How does the disability protection
affect you. the farmer?
Mr.. Bolton stated the following
example will explain what could
happen:
Let's say you are a farm operaH
or and have been paying the social
security self-employment tax since
1855, on maximum earnings OF
$4,000 per year.
Late in October, you are severe
ly injured and crippled, as a re-
suit of a tractor accident. At age
So, and with a wife and two teen
age children at home, you know
you will eve be able to work
or operate your farm again.
Since you have at least five
years coverage out Of the ten-year
period before the accident occur
red, and also meet the disability
for cash disability benefits Of $116
requirements, you will be eligible
per month beginning with April,
1860. What is more important, ben
efits can also be paid to your de-
pendents-your wife and two minor
children. Your family payments
will total $254.00 a month.
Detailed information can be OBJ
tanned by writing or visiting the
social security office located at Al;
Howard Street in Greenwood.

1t looks like we have a govern
ment of labor unions instead of a
government of the people. With a
paralyZing steel strike of a long
duration we are now harassed by
another equally damaging strike
by the International L~ongshore-
mems Association. This has tied
up the ports from Maine to Texas.
It appears that there is a col
fusion between the two labor unions.
The imports of vitality need foreign
steel has been stopped when our
country is desperately in need of
steel due to the steel strike. 1t ser
YES as a double blow to our con
omy. The steel strike alone now in
its 80th day, was bad enough but
to be joined by the Longshoremen's
strike, adds another devastating
blow to u nations economy.
The latest strike has affected the
railroads as it causes them to place
an embargo on freight a destined
for the idled ports where these
loafing dock workers have quit
work.
We are always talking about how
our action must be guarded for I'M
~pressionS of the other countries
but don't you know that the e
gimes in Peiping and Moscow are
laughing at a government that per-
mits such strikes when Red total
itarianism t~olerates no such strikes.
The people of the United States
are getting fed up with this sort
of thing for such a situation de-
notes more of a selfish
act than for any common good.
The people proved how fed up they
are when they demanded of a TIM
id Congress that they wanted a
labor reform and despite the eff
forts of a powerful labor lobby.
they voted a weak bill to reform
labor.
The people of the United States
are taking but one side in what
ever disputes these labor unions
set forth and that side is the sur
vival of our economy against the
constant strikes that are helping
destroy our industrial power.
We have been experiencing late
ly the fury of the elements in two
hurricanes one of which dealt mil
lions of dollars in damage not to
mention the death toll. This hur-
rice "a Oracle and the one head
ing this way is Hannah. Man is
helpless when he faces the fury of
a hurricane.
In the Pacific these vicious
storms are called typhoons and
the last one that struck Japan
caused deaths of thousands of peo-
plenot to mention the property dam
age.
An idea has been advanced that
an H-bomb dropped on a hurricane
would dissipate it and rob it of its
death dealing winds. We do not
begin to know if such would work
but we are for anything to stop
them before they attain their VIC
lent proportions.

PRAYER:

Captain Iris Hawkins Of the Salvation Army offered
the following Prayer.
Almighty God, we would humbly seek Thy presence,
Thy blessing upon the deliberations OF this Council. We
would come before Thee in loWly alteration ere we set out
to- face the tasks and interests Of another day. We thank
Thee for the blessed assurance that we shall not becalled
upon to face them alone or in our own strength, but shall,
at all times, be accompanied by Thy presence and fortified
by Thy grace. Being encouraged and strengthened in all
just and charitable deeds.
Thou hast been the refuge Of good and wise men Of
every generation. Through all the ages Thou hast been
the source of all knowledge. The fountain Of all goodness
throughout all history. Thou hast been the enlightener of
mems minds, and Thine was the spirit that first led them.
We would beseech Thee, be our guide through all that is
dark and difficult. Be our refuge today in every time Of cir
c~umstance and need.
o God who art the Creator Of all the earth, and as we
Thy glory and the hills thy majesty. Let every 1eeting
not fade. We believe that Thou art with all who are seek
ing to bring this loveliness into the lives Of others, 50 we
would pray
For all who are working for purer and just laws. For
those who will be faced by any great decision on behalf
Of others. Forall who will be engaged in settling affairs
of moment in the lives of men and nations. For all who
are moulding public opinion in our time. For all who are
~upholding high and lofty motives as the way Of life.
Hasten the day when Thy presence and strong pur-
pose shall not only be found in the hearts OF q few wise
and brave men, but throughout the broad land, believing
that what we do unto the least Of these brethren we do
unto Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

(AP).-Two African states have
served notice on French Presi-
dent Charles de Gauile that
they intend to demand inde-
pendence soon.
The disclosure was made in
q radio broadcast by Premier
Modibo Keita Of the French
Sudan following the meeting
in Paris Of the executive COM
mittee Of the French Commun-
ity, which links France with IL
semi-independept African
states.
Mr.. Keita said Senegal and
the French Sudan want inde-
pendence soon.
The new French constitution
provides that any state can
get full independence after a
referendum is approved. But
when the community was set
up, Gen. de Gaulle obviously
hoped to keep the community
together more or less as it is
now set UP.
