Gallup Area
Enjoys Nice Fall

The area south of Gallup has
been enjoying d nice autumn.
Mostly there have been days of
bright sun and co., clear nights
but there were four solid days of
rain and that was not so nice.
That was the rain that we wanted
during the summer but it came
too Nte for ne gardens. Except
for this excess OF water things
have been going very well at Red
Rock, Bradd Springs, Jones
Ranch, Cheechilgeetho and Skeet
School.
There was a Ye-be-che at John
Toms camp. 1t started before the
rains came but it ended during
the rain. Things were more or
less washed out
Mr.. ANGUS Gibson is the new
Principal Teacher at Bradd
Springs. Mr.. Gibson had been
teaching at Fort Wingate school
before he moved to Bradd Springs.
There is also new Principal
Teacher at Jones Ranch. Mrs.
Jennings leS' during the summer
and Mr.. Jose E. Serna took her
place as Principal Teacher. Chez
chilgeetho Boarding School is still
going strong. Mrs. Nieoto. the
Principal said that the children
are all working hard although
there has been a small outbrek
of humps.
The Cub Scouts at Cheechigee-
tho have held two meetings this
year. They spent the first meet
ing in organizing their packs and
during the second meeting the
cubs made Halloween masks. Mrs
Bell and Mrs. Kinsey are the den
mothers. The Cheechilgeetho
Brownies have not held meetings
as yet but the girls are ready.
Mrs. Becentl, Mrs. Lewis and
Mrs. Gees will work with
the Brownie groups this year.
The Chapter House at Bradd
Springs is almost finished but
there is no sign of Chapter
House starting at the j n e S
Ranch, Cheechilgeetho area. Last
year he had hoped that there
would be Chapter House at Gee
chilgeetho by this fall. Perhaps
there will be one by next year.
There is one new building at
Cheecb:-,- eetho. Mr.. Burns who is
on of the local missionaries has
built a very nice looking church.
1t should be ready by this Christ
mas. There are some very nice
looking bus shelters that can be
seen in the Red Rock area. These
shelters were made by the people
wo live at Red Rock and the
shelters were made with adobe.
There is also a nice new we'll
going in at Red Rock.
Each year more things happen
and more things are done. We
look forward to nice dry fall,
good hunting, work and many Ye-
be-che dances.

Social Security News

Under the 1860 amendments To
the social security law, additional
people-disabled workers under sc
years of age and certain of their
dependents-are now eligible for
social security benefits. Until now
only those disabled workers be-
tween so and 65 and their depen-
dents were eligible for monthly
social security payments.
Severely disabled workers un-
der so who have worked under
social security. but have never
applied to have their social Sc
curity records frozen, should get
in touch with their nearest social
security district office now to in
quire about their rights to pay
ments.
To qualify for disability insur-
ance benefits, a disabled worker
must be so severely disabled that
he Is unable to engage in any
substantial gainful activity"
In addition, he must have work
ed under social security for at least
years out of the ten years before
he was disabled.
Benefits for disabled persons un-
der so and their families can start
with the month of November 1860.
When the disabled worker ap-
plies for disability benefits at his
social security district office, GER
tain information about his age,
education, training and vocational
Milford chronicle., 1960-09-30

skills will be obtained He will
also be given a medical report
form TO take to his doctor or to
the hospital or institution where
he had care and treatment. These
sources provide medical data
about the workers injury or ill
ness with particular reference as
to how this affects his ability to
work. When the completed medi-
cal report is returned to the dis
trice office, the workers entire
record is sent to the state voca-
tional agency, which has been des-
ignated to make the decision as
to whether or not the claimant is
disabled within the definition OF
the social security law. Our office
will be glad to answer disabled
workers questions about h S
rights and responsibilities.
Today | want to- tell you about
a part of the 1860 social security
amendments which does not af-
feet a large number of people, but
is most important to those whom
it does affect.
About $4,000 people in the Uni
ted States-widows, aged depend
ent parents, and disabled children
age 18 and over-the survivors OF
workers who died before 1910, will
now be able to collect monthly So
cial security benefits.
Originally, the, social security
law provided benefits only for re-
tired workers. The law was chang
ed in 1899 to make benefits pay
able to the survivors and depen-
dents of workers, but until the
1860 amendments, no monthly ben
efits were provided for the sur
vivors of workers who died before
1910.
Under the new law, payments
can be made to the widows of
workers who died after March 81,
1888, and before January 1, 1910;
to their aged dependent parents;
and to stheir disabled sons and
daughters.
To qualify for benefits widow
or dependent mother OF a worker
who died before 1910 must be 62
years of age or over. A dependent
father must be 65 or over. A dis
abled son or daughter must have
a disability so severe that it keeps

If you believe that you or some
one you know may be eligible to
get benefits as result of this
change in the law, remember, pay
ments must be applied for. Call,
write, or visit your social security

The 1860 amendments to the So
cial security law reduce by about
one-third the length of time a per-
son has to work under social Sc
curity to become insured for the
payment of benefits to himself and
his family.
Some 200 people in Kent and
Sussex Counties will become i'm
mediately eligible for cash bene-
| fits because of this change in the
law, including many wives, wild
ows, and dependent husbands and
widowers already at or beyond re-
tirement age. First payments to
newly eligible persons will be for
the month of October.
Under the new rule, persons
reaching retirement age (65 for
men, 81 for women) this year need
only about years of work under
social security instead of the AZ
to years required by the old law.
If you reach retirement age any
time next year, you will need to
have worked under social security
for only 3A years instead of the
to 5A years required before the
change in the law. There is, how
ever, a minimum requirement of a
year and a half of work under So
cial security-without which no
benefits can become payable.
In terms of future eligibility, the
reduction in the amount of work
required means that many more
wage earners and their widows
and dependent widowers will be
able to qualify for social security
benefits when they reach retire
ment age.
Say, for example, that you are
man now so and planning to re-
tire at the end of 1865. Under the
old law you would have needed a
total of about 7 years of work to
draw these benefits. Under the
new rule you will need only Az
years social security employment
/ or self-employment to draw month
ly old-age benefits. If you are a
so year old woman planning re-
tirement in 1862, you need only 31a
years of work to be eligible for
social security.
Remember that social security
! benefits cannot start until you file
a claim with the social security
