SOCIAL SECURITY
FROM THE NORFOLK
FIELD OFFICE

During the 1860 and 1861 ses-
sions Congress made several
changes in the Social Security
Law. Perhaps the most import
ant was the change making it
possible for a worker who
reaches retirement ago or dies
to be insured with less work
than before. This change not
only affects those who reach
retirement age in the future,
it also applies to those who
have already reached retire
ment. Now a worker who was
65 (62 for women) before 1858
needs only one and one-half
years work to get monthly
Social Security payments. A
workers who reaches 65 this
years needs only two and three
quarter years work covered by
Social Security to be insured.
Living in the Outer Banks
area are perhaps fifty persons
who previously filed for Social
Security and were told they had
insufficient work to be elig BILE
for monthly payments that
would now be eligible. They
must file a new claim to get
their check. Does this change
apply to you? Or, perhaps,
someone that is very close to
you?
While in Manteo for my May
visit, one of the public officials
in the court house asked me to-
check and see if a person we
will call John could possibly get
benefits. John was 68 this
year and in a few months his
wife will be IS. In 1859 John
filed for Social Security. He
needed sixteen credits, but only
had nine, therefore, his claim
was denied. Now John will be
eligible for $40 per month. In
September when his wife is 65
she will get an extra 500. The
combined check of $50 per
month will go a long way to-
ward providing their basic
needs. I
Anyone having any doubts at
all about possible entitlement
should file a claim. Until a
claim is filed no benefits can be
paid!

NOBEL TEXT
Author Backed Old Verities

On the presentation OF the Nobel Prize
for Literature to him in December, 1850,
William Faulkner deliuered tDidely hailed
speech on toriting and the dignity of man.
The teTt tollotDS:
I feel that this award was not made
to me as a man, but to my work-a life's
work in the agony and sweat of the human
spirit, not for glory and least Of all for
profit, but to create out Of the materials of
the human spirit something which did not
exist before. So this award is only mine in
trust. 1t will not be difficult to find q
dedication for the money part of 1t COM
mensurate with the purpose and significance
of its origin.
But I would like to do the same with
the acclaim, too. by using this moment as
a pinnacle from which might be listened
to by the young men and women already
dedicated to the same anguish and travail,
among whom is already that one who will
some day stand here where am standing
Our tragedy today is a general and uni
versal physical fear so long sustained by
now that we can even bear it. There are
no longer problems of the spirit. There is
only the question: When will be blown up?
Because Of this the young man or woman
writing today has forgotten the problems Of
the human heart in conflict with itself,
which alone can make good writing because
only that is worth writing about, worth the
agony and the sweat.
He must learn them again. He must teach
himself that the basest of all things is to
be afraid; and. teaching himself that, forget
it forever, leaving no room in his workshop
for anything but the old verities and truths

Of the heart. the old universal truths lacking
which any story is ephemeral and doomed
love and honor and pity and pride and
compassion and sacrifice.
Until he does so, he labors under q curse
He writes not Of love but of lust of defeats
in which nobody loses anything of value
OF victories without hope and, worst of all
without pity or compassion. His griefs grieve
on no universal bones, leaving no scars. He
writes not of the heart but of the glands
Until he relearns these things he will

of man.
1t is easy enough to say that man is
immortal because he will endure; that when

faded from the last worthless rock hanging
tideless in the last red and dying evening,
that even then there will still be one more
sound; that of his puny inexhaustible voice,
still talking.
refuse to accept this.
I believe that man will not merely
endure: he will prevail.
He is immortal. not because he alone
among creatures has an inexhaustible voice,
but because he has a soul, a spirit capable
of compassion and sacrifice and endurance
The poets, the writer's duty is to write
about these things. 1t is his privilege to help
man endure by lifting his heart, by remind
ing him Of the courage and honor and hope
and pride and compassion and pity and
sacrifice which have been the glory Of his
past.
The poets voice need not merely be the
record Of man, it can be one of the props,
the pillars. to help him endure and prevail

u Thont Asks London
For Afro-Asio Leniency

LONDON, July 6 (AP).-U
Thant appealed today for
British patience and under
standing for the slow, difficult
advance by Afro-Asian states
toward democracy.
The acting secretary general
of the United Nations said at
a luncheon in his honor given
by the Lord Mayor of London,
Sir Frederick Hoare:
at is a mistake to assume
that the political institutions
and forms of democracy in
most of the newly independent
countries will be of the same
type as those prevailing in
Britain or that there will neces-
sarily be two main parties COM
peting against each other for
the votes of the people. 49,.
I'm many newly independent
countries it is most unlikely
that there will be a two-party
system for many years to
come"
Mr.. Thant's call for British
help was an evident attempt to
dispel the mood of suspicion
that has developed in this coun-
try toward the United Nations
in the last few years.
His speech came after two
long private talks, first with
Prime Minister Macmillan last
night and then this morning
with Foreign Secretary Lord
Home, on some Of the big issues
facing the world body. In those
talks, qualified informants said,
the British leaders voiced I'M
