Carolina Employment Security Commission office in the Citizens Bank Building. In general, a wage earner gets ' credit for one quarter under So- 1 , cial Security for each quarter in which he has been paid cash wages of at least SSO. This work can have been done at any ■time after 1936. A self-employ-' • ed individual receives credit for i all four quarters in the year ;f his net earnings from business amount to S4OO or more. Gen ' eral self-employment was placed under the Social Security law: beginning in 1951. The amount of credits one needs to be fully insured de pends upon the year he reaches 65 (62 for a woman). Under the | new law, th|s is credit for one fourth of the quarters elapsing between January 1951 and Jan-; uary of the year in which one 1 reaches 65 or 62. Most employers recognize the' : importance of keeping accurate records of employees earnings': and the amount of Social Se- • curity taxes they withhold. j They also realize that quarterly | : reports must be filed with the j Director of Internal Revenue at ! the end of each calendar quar- 1 ter. Some employers of domes- i tic or farm workers are, how- ] ever, still unaware of their : record-keeping and reporting re- 1 sponsibilities.

Mr. Conger also apprised the | stockholders that approximatelyj $6,000 in notes pledging to buy I a like amount of corporation stock were outstanding for a* considerable time despite ef forts to collect the notes due.! Stockholders present voted to approve a decision to p'rce 1 these notes in the hands of At torney John Shackelford for col lection, it being determined that they were entirely legal and carried a penalty of 6% in terest. “It does not seem fair to the stockholders who have paid lip for their stock to pay the in terest on some monies the cor poration owes, when if the pledges were paid ~in full, tire corporation would be able to pay off its note and have ad ditional operating capital,” Con ger stated. Subsequently the following officers of the corporation were chosen: J. R. DuLaney, presi dent; W. J. P. Earnhardt, vice' president, and Graham White, secretary-treasurer. Officers will serve for the next fiscal year.
