Read Tribune Advertisements! Thursday. December 7. 19.39 Series of Articles Explains Provisions Social Security Act Part 1 In the state of North Carolina, there are more than 925,000 per sons who now have social securi ty account numbers; and most of them want to know how the changes in the law apply to them. By way of supplying in formation to our readers this pa per begins this week, a series of articles, each of which will ex plain one provision of the new social security program. Three of the amendments to the act concern almost every family in the United States, in one way or another: 1. The wage tax of one per cent, remains the same until 1943. That is, the tax will not be in creased in 1940, as was provided under the old law. 2. In addition to monthly pay ments to insured wage earners who are eligible for benefits after reaching age 65, monthly benefits will be paid to the aged wives and minor children of these annu itants; and monthly benefits are provided for aged widows, for orphans, and for widows with minor children of Insured wage earners who die. 3. Monthly benefits will begin two years earlier than was pro vided in the original act, which means that the first monthly pay ments of old-age insurance will be made in 1940 instead of 1942.
