PAGE EIGHT REQUIREMENT FOR ASSISTANCE IN OLD AGE IS EXPLAINED j'eopie uvcr t>o without iWeans; of Sustenance to Be Aided by! Social Security: County Willi Share in Cost Raleigh, May 12 There are thou- i sands of Xorth Carolinians who will \ toe eligible for aid under provisions j of the old age assistance act passed toy the 1937 general assembly, and there are many more who will not toe able to meet the requirements for various reasons. The state board of charities and public welfare, anxious to make j clear provisions of the old age as- : sistance plan, which becomes effect- j ive .t" iniy i Ar vcc.r lias is- ' sued a statement tending to clarify , the act. One of the first requirements is j that applicants for aid under the j plan shall be citizens of the United ; i>it fu?r ii-.v,Ivit-.-. n r- tvi f 11 aiized. Another essential is that applicants shall be 65 years of age or over, and shall not have sufficient income, or other resources, to provide j a reasonable subsistence compatible; with decency and health. Many persons r eaching" the age of j ?vfi have not been able, frequently { lurough no fault of their own. tc ' save sufficient money to care for, -themselves in the declining years of : fcheir lives; others, because of age or 1 disabilities, are unable to earn a j comfortable livelihood, while still others are not so situated that they j can care for themselves. Applicants for assistance under i the act are not supposed to be in- S mates of any public institution at the lime the applications are filed. ! However, they may apply for aid which, if allowed, will not begin until they have ceased to be inmates j of public institutions. In order to prevent possible frau- j outer, r. applications for assistance un- I lor the old age plan, the law speci- j fically prohibits the assignment or i lru.rLs.fer of property during the two years prior to the filing of applica- j tiens Another requirement which will be r;gki!y adhered to is that all appli- t cants must ha ve been residents of | North (Carolina for at least five of j the nine years preceding the filing t of the applications, and for one year , ?|vrh*.yJiate^ preceding the filing. There is an additional stipulation, in .view ?>f the fact that the 100 I counties of the state are participate j in or in fuvmpiot i_i._ ? o^nccut Ul UIG act, thai applicants must have been 1 residents of the county in which the appiicaLions are filed for at least one year. This, however, in cases where county residence has been of i shorter duration, has been cared for 1 by a clause in the law which pro- ! vides that approved applicants shall receive full benefits, with the difference which would have been absorbed by the county coming from : the state appropriation. Instances of ! this character will be passed upon by ; the state board. Amounts to be paid applicants wii! ! be determined upon individual con- j ditions, and will not exceed $30 per ; month, or $360 per year. Of this amount, the counties will pay practically one-fourth, and the state one- j fourth. SPEAK IN WILKESBORO Rev. J. C.

Neighbors may borrow any one of a hundred things the best housewives run short of, and still remain friendly, but . "may I use your telephone?" is very likely to be considered an imposition by your neighbars. If you had a neighbor who persisted in borrowing things and never returning them, you'd probably at i?ast become impatient with chat neighbor. When you borrow your neighbor's telephone, you are borrowing something you cannot repay when you haven't a telephone ol your own. Avoid embarrassment of this kind by having a telephone of your own. Hind out, now, how little it costs. Just call the Business Office, or ask any telephone employe. R N BELL tegraph Company orated) ^ savt kVl f"l*.U jT-TI_.ll ---"TSv. ngOne nute!
