(Editor’s Mote: This is oae of
a series of celamas by Thomas
F. Wyatt, social security district
manater in Greenville, telllns
what the social security amend
ments of IMS mean to yon and
yoar family).
Nearly all Chowan County
residents over 65 will be af
fected by amendments made
in the Social Security Act
recently passed by Congress
whether or hot they receive
social security monthly bene
fits.
An entirely new program
of health insurance for the
aged will affect most Cho
fan County people over 65.
The first part of this pro
gram, a basic plan of hos
pital insurance, will benefit
practically all 65 or over.
The second part of the pro
gram is a supplementary
medical plan in which people
65 or over must choose
whether or not they may
wish to enroll.
Another change in the
law will affect all those
people now getting monthly
social security benefits. This
is the 7 per cent increase in
benefits, which is effective
beginning January, 1965. In
September, beneficiaries will
receive an extra check rep
resenting the difference be
tween the new and old rates
back to January. There is
no need to come into the
district office in order to get
the benefit increase; this will
be done automatically.
Other important changes
made in the social security
law tljis year include:
—Permitting widows to re
ceive a reduced benefit as
early as age 60.
—Paying benefits to child
ren after they reach 18 until
they reach 22 if they are at
tending school full-time.
—Providing for an auto
matic refiguring of a work
er's monthly benefit if he
has earnings from work af
ter becoming eligible for
benefits to find out if the
additional earnings will in
crease his payment.
—Authorizing benefits for
certain persons 72 or older
who did not have enough
work credit to get benefits
previously.
—lncreased the amount of
gross income farmers can
use when reporting their
farm income under the op
tional method.
—Adjusted the social se
curity contribution rates for
employees, employers and
self-employed persons. Also
established a hew contribu
tiofa to finance hospital in
surance for the aged, and
raised the earnings based on
which these contributions
are paid from $4,800 to $6,600

Burns, Bleeding
Can Be Serious
(Continuation of article* on
emergency fir**t aid in a fallout
Nlielter, by Diane Peedin, Crons
Honda Senior 4-H Club).
Some of the more common
types of injuries that are
likely to occur during a dis
aster are broken bones,
burns and serious bleeding.
Would you be able to treat
these injuries? You may
have to because medical
help may not be available.
Broken bones are a real
and serious hazard in any
emergency whether it be a
hurricane, tornado or nuclear
attack. You should know
how to splint a fracture.
To splint use pieces of
wood or old newspapers or
magazines. Pad to make the
victim more comfortable.
Lay the splints on each side
of the fractured limb. Tie
them firmly in enough places
sc that the bone cannot
move. Put a broken arm in
a sling.
Burns are classified into
three different types, first,
second and third degrees.
Ti e first is a slight redden

Chi Medical
By Sen. B. Everett Jordan
WASHINGGTON—A great
deal of work is now going
on in the preparations being
made to administer the new
and far - reaching medical
care program for the aged
recently enacted into law.
The program will be ad
ministered by the Social Se
curity Administration and
will go into effect July 1,
1966.
In the meantime, a great
many questions are arising
among many people as to
just how the program will
work. It is a complicated
program and it will require
some time to get all of the
administrative machinery in
volved into full operation.
However, the Social Secur
ity Administration is anxi
ous for the public to know
what immediate procedures
should be followed.
Most people who are 65 or
over will not be required to
go to the social security of
fice to qualify for protection
under the hospital and medi
jhl insurance program. It
will not be necessary for
people to make any special
registration at this time if
they are now receiving so
cial security, railroad retire
ment benefits or federal
Civil Service retirement
benefits. Neither is it ne
cessary for those people who
are receiving state public
assistance payments to reg
ister at this time.
All of the people in the
above categories will auto
matically qualify for benefits
under the program and ap
plication cards for the medi
cal insurance benefit pro
gram will be sent to them
some time after September
1 of this year.
There are two categories
of people who should con
tact the nearest Social Se
curity office after Septem
ber 1, 1965. These are the
people who are over 65 years
of age but are not eligible
for social security benefits,
railroad retirement benefits
or federal Civil Service re
tirement benefits. In addi
tion to these people, those
doesn’t cover over 25% of
the body, it is not too seri
ous. A sterile bandage to
keep out air may help to
ease the pain.
In the second degree, blis
ters form and infection be
comes a great danger. Cover
this burn with a sterile
dressing or a clean sheet to
keep out air. Don’t use any
oil or grease.
A third degree bum is
quite serious. It may appear
charred or white. Cover with
a sterile dressing or a clean
sheet. Do not use any
grease, oil or salve.
Serious bleeding calls for
immediate action as the loss
of more than two pints of
blood may cause death. The
first thing you should do is
apply direct pressure over
the wound area. You should
use the cleanest material
available to cover the wound.
It may be necessary to use
your bare hand while wait
ing for someone to get ma
terial for a dressing.
Apply pressure evenly un
til bleeding stops. A word
of warning: Don’t use an
old-fashioned tourniquet ex
cept as a last resort as im
proper use of a tourniquet
may cost the victim the loss
of a limb.
After the bleeding has
stopped do not remove the
dressing. Simply add extra
layers of cloth and bandage
firmly. Then treat the vic
time for shock. The victim
should have reduced activity
for several days afterward.
You should learn to treat
broken bones, burns and
serious wounds. This knowl
edge may save someone’s
life.
Helpful information may
be obtained from Murray D.
Ashley, director of the Eden
ton-Chowan Civil Defense
Unit.

Tobacco Field
Cleaning Urged
Research workers continue
to find good reasons why
farmers should try to cut
their old tobacco stalks and
plow out the stubbles im
mediately after harvest.
Harry Venters, Chowan
County agricultural agent,
says cleaning up the tobacco
field will not only cut losses
from nematodes, mosaic and
brown spot, but will greatly
reduce the insect population
for next year.
‘‘Entomologists call good
cultural practices in the late
summer one of the most ef
fective and economical meth
ods of reducing hornworms,
budworms and flea beetels.
Venters said.
By getting rid of old to
bacco stalks and roots im
mediately after harvest, the
farmer deprives insects of
their food supply and breed
ing place.
Both hornworms and bud
worms overwinter in the
top two inches of soil as
pupae. This means that
turning up the stubbles as
recommended will greatly
reduce the number of moths
that will emerge the follow
ing spring.
Some research data, Vent
ers reports, also indicate
that the pupae are usually
buried in the row rather
than in the middle. Turning
up the roots, therefore,
would get them.
Venters says researchers
at North Carolina State Uni
versity have found that most
of the budworms which
make it through the winter
are produced after Septem
ber. Research workers also
report that over 90 per cent

IDAHO---JULY 3, 1890
THE GEM STATE—CAPITAL: BOISE
I Jp! |
n
Idaho, at first part of the
Oregon Country, was claimed
by Spain, Russia, Great Brit
ain and the United States.
Lewis and Clark became the
first white men io visit it in
1805. In 1809 British trad
ers were dealing in furs in
the area and U. S. traders
soon followed.
The War of 1812 made
Idaho a property under Brit
ish control, but the Amer
ican Board of Foreign Mis
sions sent the Rev. Henry
Spalding to the territory to
work among the Shoshone
and Nez Perce Indians. In
1836 Mr. Spalding and his
wife became the first white
family to settle in Idaho and
in 1837 their daughter Eliza
was the first white child
born in the territory.
The Spaldings taught the
Indians an entirely new kind
of civilization when they
pi the overwintering horn
worms are produced after
August 1.
This means that the earlier
the old tobacco stalks can
be destroyed the better. The
fanner who cuts his stalks
is likely to Spend less money
for insecticide and have less
crop damage in 1966.
For the stalk cutting pro
gram to be really effective,
however, Venters says every
farmer would need to cut
his stalks. In that way he
will not be producing in
sects for his neighbor to
fight next year.

built their home, farmed
the land, built a mill wheel,
and water power ditch and
even made a saw mill and
printing press. Mr. Spalding
built a school for Indians
and printed a primer and
prayer book in the Indian
language. He followed by a
Catholic missionary, Father
Desmet, in 1842.
In 1849 the United States
won the 49th parallel boun
dary dispute with Britain
and in 1855 a Mormon col
ony was established in the
Lemhi Valley, Despite the
missions, only a handful of
settlers came to Idaho until
1860 when gold was discov
ered in Coral Gulch. Entire
towns sprang up in a few
days and lawlessness pre
vailed during the gold rush.
In, 1863 the Idaho Terri
tory, including Montana, was
organized. The Indians took
to the war path in 13 v7, but
the surrender of Chief
Joseph, of the Nez Perce
tribe, late that year brought
an end to most of the fight
ing.
By 1890 the population of
Idaho increased to a point
where state admission was
granted July 3.
Agriculture and live stock
still produce the greatest in
come in Idaho, but antimony,
cobalt, silver and zinc pro
duction are largest in the
nation.
