Wade, manager of the Hulelgb office of the Social Se- I curity Board, shows that 179 per- 1 sons In this area are now receiv- I lug monthly payments of old-age and survivors insurance. This fig- . ure represents the number otL men, women, and children in the | , counties of Wake, Johnston, ] Franklin, Vance, and Warren who I, have been awarded mouthly pay ments of old-age and survivors in- ' surance during the nine months ; since mouthly benetiiw became j' puyable (January 1. 1940). I. Among those listed are 22 wid-L ows, 57 children, 86 retired wagei' earners, and 14 wives of retired | wage earners. ( The field manager explained that wbeu a fully insured wage | earner, who is 65 years old or more, tiles claim for his monthly old-age insurance beuefits, his wife may also claim monthly ben efits when she Is 65 years old or more. In addition each of bis ? children under age 16 (Is in in school) will receive monthly ben efits ? except that the benefits for | the entire family may uot be more thau twice the amount of the re !' tired wage earner's own mo.itbly ' payment. , Another group of children who I receive monthly payments, of Fed eral insurance are the survivors of insured wage earners who died 1 this year. A number of boys and j girls in the Raleigh service area ! have been awarded mouthly pay- ; meuts of survivors insurance be- I cause their fathers who died re- j cently had social security a-.vouut.-i which provided this protection , for their families. Mothers of these children are entitled to the , widow's current benefit provided under the survivors insurance! clause of the Social Security Act. I Mr. Wade pointed out that j when an insured worker d'es, | leaving a widow with minor cl.il- | dren. monthly payments of snr- j v I vols insurance are made to his widow and to his childreu who are under age 16 ( 18 if iu school) An insured worker's widow who has reached age sixty-live or tliei widow who has children under age 18 iu her care receives three- 1 fourths of the amount of her bus- 1 band's primary insurance benKit ] and each of his minor chiidreu ( receives one-half of his primary , insurance benefit within certain 1 limitations. Ill addition to monthly benefits paid in this area 45 lump-sum death payments have been made to survivors of Insured workers who died this year. These pay- ' lnents ranged between $30 and I $250. | Mr. Wade said that where the j insured wage earner dies and ileaves no survivors entitled to monthly benefits. a lump-sum death payment- is made to the wi dow or widower or children or | parents of the deceased. The maximum lump-sum death pay ment to near relatives is six times ithe primary Insurance benefit. For example, if calculations show , that- the deceased worker's pri mary insurance benefit is $23.50 ;and it is found that there is no survivor entitled to monthly beu ! elits, then a relative who is enti tled to the death payment will receive a check for six times $23.50 or $141.00. If no one of ithe above-mentioned relatives is hiving, a payment covering the burial expenses, up to an amount i of six times the primary insur ance benelit, will be made to the person who pttid such expenses. c I1U I.K MKKTS The Kenmore Circle of the , Louisburg Methodist Church met with Mrs. C.

C. c Dear Sir: Louisburg has Just completed t i $7 0,000.00 Armory at a great .?08t to our tax payers. Our boys. Battery B of the 113th Field Ar- J tillery, were mobilized and used this Armory before leaving for Fort- Jackson a few weeks ago. " We are proud of our Armory; ? it is an asset to our small town, " und we are sure all the towns and J cities with new Armories feel the . same. Ours, with many others. Is ' standing practically vacant' now while the pressing need of bar- J racks and training quarters is fac ing our government. We realize that local armories could not be . used for every phase of training our soldiers but there are many . phases of training, medical corps for instance, where these armor- , ies could be utilized, thus saving , trtuch money for our Government. Our Armory will provide ade quate and splendid quarters for ? many men. Normally it can house " 1-5 men. and this number could 1 be doubled or tripled us the space I is adequate for taking care of that I number. We suggest' that all vacant Armories throughout North Caro lina be utilized if possible. We feel that by using these splendid buildings we can save ourj Gov ernment a huge amount of money in the construction of a like amount of floor space. The use of local Armories would also more fairly and evenly distribute the money that will naturally be spent by our mobilized military forces.
