Widows and children should also file for claims immediately upon the death of a wage earner who had worked in employment covered by the Social Security Act, Mr. Lambert sai.d. The rate of compensation to which they are entitled will not be reduced by delay in filing for benefits, he pointed out, but de lay will result m a reduction of the total compensation they will receive, since compensation pay ments cannot be made retroac tively. A representative of the Ashe ville field office of the Social Security Administration will be at the City Hall, Forest City, Oc tober 24 at 11:00 a. m. All em ployees age 65 or over, and sur viving relatives of deceased wage earners are urged to meet this representative at time and place mentioned. In addition, persons who have need of social security account numbers or other infor mation pertaining to the SocSkl Security Act are-4nvited to meet this representative. THE FAMILY SHOE STORE Forest City, N. C. Shoes For The Entire Family W. L. Smith, Prop. Workers reaching the age of 65 should file immediately for benefits under the old-age and survivors insurance provisions of the Social Securitv Act in order to guard against loss of benefits to which they are entitled, ac cording to D. W|. Lambert, man ager of the Asheville social se curity board field office. The rate of compensation un der the old-age and survivors in surance provisions is reduced each month a worker 65 years of age or over delays filing for bene fits, he pointed out, citing a re cent example of a worker who lost benefits through failing to file for them immediately upon reaching the critical age. Mr. Lambert related that a man who reached 65 in 1942 failed to inquire as to the social security benefits to which he is entitled until last month. Shortly after reaching 65, Mr. Lambert said, this man quit a job covered by the Social Security Act and went into business for himself. Since self-employment is not cov ered by the act, he accrued no additional benefits after he went into business for himself, but if he had filed a claim for benefits immediately upon reaching 65 he would have been entitled to a monthly compensation, of $21.50, computed on the basis of what he had earned in covered employ ment. As it is, Mr. Lambert sai,d, the man can now draw compensation of only $15.35 a month, simply because he waited four years to We Do All Kinds Of Sewing — See Mrs. J. H. Barnes or Miss Artie M.
