Wyatt, social security district manater in Greenville, telllns what the social security amend ments of IMS mean to yon and yoar family). Nearly all Chowan County residents over 65 will be af fected by amendments made in the Social Security Act recently passed by Congress whether or hot they receive social security monthly bene fits. An entirely new program of health insurance for the aged will affect most Cho fan County people over 65. The first part of this pro gram, a basic plan of hos pital insurance, will benefit practically all 65 or over. The second part of the pro gram is a supplementary medical plan in which people 65 or over must choose whether or not they may wish to enroll. Another change in the law will affect all those people now getting monthly social security benefits. This is the 7 per cent increase in benefits, which is effective beginning January, 1965. In September, beneficiaries will receive an extra check rep resenting the difference be tween the new and old rates back to January. There is no need to come into the district office in order to get the benefit increase; this will be done automatically. Other important changes made in the social security law tljis year include: —Permitting widows to re ceive a reduced benefit as early as age 60. —Paying benefits to child ren after they reach 18 until they reach 22 if they are at tending school full-time. —Providing for an auto matic refiguring of a work er's monthly benefit if he has earnings from work af ter becoming eligible for benefits to find out if the additional earnings will in crease his payment. —Authorizing benefits for certain persons 72 or older who did not have enough work credit to get benefits previously. —lncreased the amount of gross income farmers can use when reporting their farm income under the op tional method. —Adjusted the social se curity contribution rates for employees, employers and self-employed persons.

Some of the more common types of injuries that are likely to occur during a dis aster are broken bones, burns and serious bleeding. Would you be able to treat these injuries? You may have to because medical help may not be available. Broken bones are a real and serious hazard in any emergency whether it be a hurricane, tornado or nuclear attack. You should know how to splint a fracture. To splint use pieces of wood or old newspapers or magazines. Pad to make the victim more comfortable. Lay the splints on each side of the fractured limb. Tie them firmly in enough places sc that the bone cannot move. Put a broken arm in a sling. Burns are classified into three different types, first, second and third degrees.

Everett Jordan WASHINGGTON—A great deal of work is now going on in the preparations being made to administer the new and far - reaching medical care program for the aged recently enacted into law. The program will be ad ministered by the Social Se curity Administration and will go into effect July 1, 1966. In the meantime, a great many questions are arising among many people as to just how the program will work. It is a complicated program and it will require some time to get all of the administrative machinery in volved into full operation. However, the Social Secur ity Administration is anxi ous for the public to know what immediate procedures should be followed. Most people who are 65 or over will not be required to go to the social security of fice to qualify for protection under the hospital and medi jhl insurance program. It will not be necessary for people to make any special registration at this time if they are now receiving so cial security, railroad retire ment benefits or federal Civil Service retirement benefits. Neither is it ne cessary for those people who are receiving state public assistance payments to reg ister at this time. All of the people in the above categories will auto matically qualify for benefits under the program and ap plication cards for the medi cal insurance benefit pro gram will be sent to them some time after September 1 of this year. There are two categories of people who should con tact the nearest Social Se curity office after Septem ber 1, 1965. These are the people who are over 65 years of age but are not eligible for social security benefits, railroad retirement benefits or federal Civil Service re tirement benefits. In addi tion to these people, those doesn’t cover over 25% of the body, it is not too seri ous. A sterile bandage to keep out air may help to ease the pain. In the second degree, blis ters form and infection be comes a great danger. Cover this burn with a sterile dressing or a clean sheet to keep out air. Don’t use any oil or grease. A third degree bum is quite serious. It may appear charred or white. Cover with a sterile dressing or a clean sheet. Do not use any grease, oil or salve. Serious bleeding calls for immediate action as the loss of more than two pints of blood may cause death. The first thing you should do is apply direct pressure over the wound area. You should use the cleanest material available to cover the wound. It may be necessary to use your bare hand while wait ing for someone to get ma terial for a dressing. Apply pressure evenly un til bleeding stops. A word of warning: Don’t use an old-fashioned tourniquet ex cept as a last resort as im proper use of a tourniquet may cost the victim the loss of a limb. After the bleeding has stopped do not remove the dressing. Simply add extra layers of cloth and bandage firmly. Then treat the vic time for shock. The victim should have reduced activity for several days afterward. You should learn to treat broken bones, burns and serious wounds. This knowl edge may save someone’s life. Helpful information may be obtained from Murray D. Ashley, director of the Eden ton-Chowan Civil Defense Unit. REMOVE WARTS!

C. Tobacco Field Cleaning Urged Research workers continue to find good reasons why farmers should try to cut their old tobacco stalks and plow out the stubbles im mediately after harvest. Harry Venters, Chowan County agricultural agent, says cleaning up the tobacco field will not only cut losses from nematodes, mosaic and brown spot, but will greatly reduce the insect population for next year. ‘‘Entomologists call good cultural practices in the late summer one of the most ef fective and economical meth ods of reducing hornworms, budworms and flea beetels. Venters said. By getting rid of old to bacco stalks and roots im mediately after harvest, the farmer deprives insects of their food supply and breed ing place. Both hornworms and bud worms overwinter in the top two inches of soil as pupae. This means that turning up the stubbles as recommended will greatly reduce the number of moths that will emerge the follow ing spring. Some research data, Vent ers reports, also indicate that the pupae are usually buried in the row rather than in the middle. Turning up the roots, therefore, would get them. Venters says researchers at North Carolina State Uni versity have found that most of the budworms which make it through the winter are produced after Septem ber.

' itow»miin,iii The Stars in Our Flag: 43 IDAHO---JULY 3, 1890 THE GEM STATE—CAPITAL: BOISE I Jp! | n Idaho, at first part of the Oregon Country, was claimed by Spain, Russia, Great Brit ain and the United States. Lewis and Clark became the first white men io visit it in 1805. In 1809 British trad ers were dealing in furs in the area and U. S. traders soon followed. The War of 1812 made Idaho a property under Brit ish control, but the Amer ican Board of Foreign Mis sions sent the Rev. Henry Spalding to the territory to work among the Shoshone and Nez Perce Indians. In 1836 Mr. Spalding and his wife became the first white family to settle in Idaho and in 1837 their daughter Eliza was the first white child born in the territory. The Spaldings taught the Indians an entirely new kind of civilization when they pi the overwintering horn worms are produced after August 1. This means that the earlier the old tobacco stalks can be destroyed the better. The fanner who cuts his stalks is likely to Spend less money for insecticide and have less crop damage in 1966. For the stalk cutting pro gram to be really effective, however, Venters says every farmer would need to cut his stalks. In that way he will not be producing in sects for his neighbor to fight next year.

Mr. Spalding built a school for Indians and printed a primer and prayer book in the Indian language. He followed by a Catholic missionary, Father Desmet, in 1842. In 1849 the United States won the 49th parallel boun dary dispute with Britain and in 1855 a Mormon col ony was established in the Lemhi Valley, Despite the missions, only a handful of settlers came to Idaho until 1860 when gold was discov ered in Coral Gulch. Entire towns sprang up in a few days and lawlessness pre vailed during the gold rush. In, 1863 the Idaho Terri tory, including Montana, was organized. The Indians took to the war path in 13 v7, but the surrender of Chief Joseph, of the Nez Perce tribe, late that year brought an end to most of the fight ing. By 1890 the population of Idaho increased to a point where state admission was granted July 3. Agriculture and live stock still produce the greatest in come in Idaho, but antimony, cobalt, silver and zinc pro duction are largest in the nation.
