C, the Social nard has consented to t accuracy of answers to questions on Social Security, which may be asked by employ ers, employees, and others, through The Herald. Address inquiries to the Editor. Answers will be given here in the order in which questions are received. This is an informational service and is not legal advice or ser vice. • In keeping with Social Se curity Board policy names will not be published. Question: Will you kindly,inform me whether registration under the Social Security Act is compulsory, •and if not, in what manner my em ployer can be correspondingly reliev ed of the payments for old-age bene fits. lam not interested in the lat ter personally and would welcome in formation since the one per cent de duction now in effect is too keenly felt in the family budget to make it practical or desirable. Answer: If you are engaged in employment not specifically except ed under Title* VIII of the Social Se curity Act, and are under 65 years of age, your employer to required by the Social Security Act to deduct one per cent of your wages, when and as paid, and as an employer pay one per cent of your wages to the collector of internal revenue each month. Every employer of one or more persons, who is engaged in business not specifically excepted under Title VIII of the Act, comes under the Social Security Act, and there is no way whereby he can be relieved of deducting one per cent from your wages and paying one per cent himself to the Bureau of Inter nal Revenue each month. You should go to your Social Security Board field office and get a Social Security Account number, and report it to your employer, who is responsible for making the deductions required by the law. When you reach the age of 65, if you have worked one «ay ifl'each of five different calendar ears in a covered employment you will, be ,eut|Usd to a monthly old-age benefits' payfißi&'lfflpou sKouldT die before reaching 65 years dependents would be entitled to a lump-sum pay ment under the old-age benefits pro visions of the Act. Question: I employ a large num ber of persons. In the past my firm has used metal work numbers for my employee’s indentification. Would the Social Security Board object if my firm had the individual Social Security account number of each em ployee placed on metal tags, and used as employee identification work num bers? This would greatly simplify my records, and at the same time give each one of my employees a more durable number than the one they have at the present time. Answer: The Social Security Board would have no objection to your having your employee’s Social Security Account numbers reproduced on metal tags, to be used as identi fication work numbers. The account number of each employee is his own and of course could not be used for anypne else, and if an employee left your employ that number is still his. it should be carefully explained to the employee that that is his Social Security Account number for life and that he should preserve that number. Social Security account numbers may not be used in any commercial way by any employer. Question: 1 expect to get married and change my Should I have my Social Security number voided or get another one? Answer: You should write to the Social Security Board Records Office, Candler Building, Baltimore, Mary-, land, giving, your account number, your name in which the number was issued, and your new name. Your numbep will remain the same, but your new name will appear on your Social Security Ledger Account in the Records Office. .

We are quite chesty over our counsellor and his boys at Opportun ity Camp. General Billy Whichard was asked, after a fine record as a camper, to be one of the counsellors. We sent him over with the six boys provided by St. Paul’s, and he was put in charge of a hard sector. The General, however, measured up. We could only send six boys, and appli cations came to me from more than this. We had to refuse the privilege of giving this fine outing to a poor boy to some of our folks. We thank St. Paulites for their generosity. All of our boys came back with some YOU’U ALWAYS BE GLAD YOU BOUGHT A GENERAL @ ELECTRIC REFRIGERATOR * T s.
