January 4 received their SOOth monthly social security check," Douglas Butler, Field Rep- resentative of the Asheville dis trict office said today. "We are very proud of them." Butler explained that "this small ffroup of people" became en titled to monthly benefit checks starting January 1940, the first month that such benefits were payable under the Social Security System. To be entitled to a monthly re tirement benefit in January 1940 one had to be at least 65 years old. "So, after receiving monthly checks for 25 years," Butler went on, "such an lnoaviauai would now be at least 90 years old and most likely older. Therefore it is a very small and select group in deed who received their SOOth so cial security check on January 4. By their work and payment of so cial security taxes at the very beginning of the program, they earned the right to these benefits. We take off our hats to them." In addition to this 25th anni versary of monthly benefit pay ments now celebrated, 1965 will also mark the 30th anniversary of the Social Security Act, which was signed by President Frank lin D. Roosevelt in August 1936. Butler stated that beneficiaries under the old-age and survivors insurance program, as well as the disability insurance program which was added in 1954, have received benefits totaling more than $114 billion from January 1940 to the present. Monthly benefit payments made dtsring that first year, 1940. were just over $15 million, and went to 102,941 aged workers, their dependents, and survivors. "The social security program as a whole has shown a steady growth during this 25-year peri od. Benefits paid during the 1964 fiscal year, from July 1963 through June 1964, totaled $15.8 billion. At the end of 1964, over 20 million people were receiving monthly benefit payments." Social security benefits actual ly are paid out of two separate trust funds maintained in the U. board. S. Treasury. These funds have been built up with the social se curity taxes paid by employees, their employers and self-employed persons. "Money not needed for the payment of current bene fits and for the administration of the program is invested in interest-bearing securities of the U. S. Government. The interest thus added to the funds is enough to pay for the administrative costs of the program several tunes ov er." The old-age and survivors in surance trust fund totaled $19.7 billion at the end of fiscal year 1964, and the disability insurance trust fund established in January 1957, totaled $2.2 billion, Butler concluded.
