.Itost Miitary Services Are Now JJsing Social Security Numbers - x ; Are you one of the mil lidos of young men or women who can’t rattle off your so cial security number with certainty? You probably will b* able to soon if you’re #headed for the armed forces. It’s name, rank, and social security number now. Since last summer, most military services have used social security numbers rather than serial numbers for new inductees. This is quite ap propriate since young people serving in the armed forces build up valuable financial protection under social se curity for themselves and their families. As a matter of fact, mem bers of the armed forces get a special break on social se curity. Not only does the Government tnatch their con tributions, as a private em ployer does, but servicemen now get a SIOO a month credit »« cover non cash pay they receive, such as room and board and clothing allowance. They pay no con tributions on this bonus credit v Young men who have 4bmpleted their military serv ice generally have built up enough social security credit NOTICE!

The families of most would still be eligible for social security survivors benefits even though the vet eran attended 4 years or more of college before going to work. For example, take the case of a young man who enters the service at age 19 and com pletes 2 years of service. His family would be eligible to receive social security checks if he died before the age of 30. He would also be eligible for monthly disability checks for himself and his family if he became disabled before age 24. Moreover, many wounded Vietnam veterans receive monthly social security disa bility checks, and the widows and children of many de ceased servicemen are getting monthly checlu based on the social security credits their husbands earned in the service. A lot of people think of social security as just for senior citizens. But it’s im portant to our younger citi zens as well. Let’s face it. All is not perfect in this land of ours. America has taken some lumps and quite frankly it hurts. But maybe we should step back and take a long hard look ... take inventory of how we are and how we got here. Maybe we should inspect our brighter side as well as some of our ills. And maybe, just maybe, we’ll come out thinking this country’s good side far overshadows its bad. Then maybe we’ll start to do something to make it better. Rather than knocking it, which ends up making it worse.

If j/tk wk V H , Forehand Faces Mutiple Charges After Arrest The arrest of an Edenton man in the Cisco section of Chowan County Sunday night for drunk driving and carry ing a concealed weapon led to additional charges of break ing, entering and larceny Monday. Thomas tLloyd. Forehand, 40, waived preliminary hear ing on the felony counts Tuesday before District Court Judge EMon Aydlett. Judge Aydlett then ordered a pre sentence diagnostic study of from 60 days to six months in World‘Wide Room Reservations Speeded with Free Phone Call Any one of a million hotel rooms throughout the world may be reserved by making a 15-second free telephone call. Reservations World with six computer centers, five in the United States and one in Canada, confirms space almost in stantly. On request it will determine the availability of a rental car. Spearheaded by James N. Sowers, former American Airlines executive, this new service at One Park Avenue, New York, has a pair of RCA Spectra 70/45 computers operating at all times in connection with six reservation centers. This network will be expanded in 1970 to include a second Canadian office and others in the Caribbean, Hawaii, Mexico and Brussels. Reservations World officially opened its doors on May 18, providing service for the first 350,000 travelers whose names, confirmed reservations and arrival times were stored on a “live time” basis. Now comes the big question. What can you do? You’re j only one little individual among • over 200 million people. How • can you help? For one thing, you might think about investing in your country. Showing your faith in its future. That’s exactly what you do when you sign up to buy U. S. Savings Bonds. You’re simply buying a share in America. You’re also socking away some money for yourself. Money that grows at a guaran teed rate, to pay you back $4 at maturity for every $3 you’ve saved. Os course, Savings Bonds are not going to cure all our head aches. But they’ll help to pro vide the economic strength we’ll need for the job. And at the same time, they can cure a lot of your financial headaches in the years to come. Any way you look at it, they make good sense. jr^jPFl And that’s just MSEmmL what we need in this country M right now.

Peabody Coal Company and Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company have agreed to under take jointly the necessary steps which could lead to a combined venture. The objective is to construct and operate a gasification plant at a coal mine, and to transport the gas produced as a supple mental supply in the central midwest and Great Lakes re gion. Since the gasification process occurs entirely in closed vessels, there will be no pollution of the atmosphere in volved. The gas produced would be free of sulfur and other pol lutants, and would be suitable in every application where nat ural gas is used, according to the company spokesmen. SHOP I. N. S. AT W. E. S.
