Are Moodily Payments
Of Old Age. Survivors Insurance
t?;-; *■■
l^ard of Change
OfYourAdih’es!
jjfj A atptement issued today by
Louis H. Clement, manager of
the Salisbury, N. C., office of the
Social Security Board, shows that
359 persons in this area are now
recelTing monthly payments of
old-age and survivors insurance.
This figure represents the num-
iher of men, women, and children
in the counties of Alexander, Al
leghany, Ashe. Iredell. Rowan,
Watauga and Wilkes who receive
monthly payments of old-age and
survivors insurance. Among those
listed are 4 widows, 130 children.
157 retired wage earners. 41
wives of retired wage earners,
and two aged dependents parents.
The field manager explained
that when a fully insured wage
earner, who is 65 years old or
ore, files claim for his monthly
’ol(5-age insurance benefits, his
wife may aiso clpim monthly
benefits if site is 65 years old or
when she reaches that age. in ad
dition each of his children under
16 (18 if in school) will receive
monthly benefits — except that
the benefits for the entire faiii-
ilv may not be more thlin twice
ttie amount of the retired wage
earner’s own monthly payment.
Mr. Clement pointed out that
when an in.-*ured worker die',
leaving a wid.ow with minor chil
dren. monthly payments of sur
vivors insurance are made to his
widow and to bis children who
are under age 16 (IS if in school).
An insured wor’^er's widow who
has reached age 65 or the widow
of an insured worker who has
I
children under age 18 in her
care receives throe-fourths of
the amount of her ^ husband’s
primary insurance benefit and
each of his minor children re
ceives one-half of his primary
insurance benefit within certain
limitations.
In addition to monthly benefits
paid in this area 111 lump-sum
death payments have been made
to survivors of insured workers
who died during 1940-41. These
payments ranged between $60.00
and $252.00.
Mr. Clement said that where
the insured wage earner dies and
leaves no survivors entitled to
'monthly benefits, a lump-sum
death payment is made to the
widow or widower or children or
parents of the deceased. The
maximum lump-sum death pay
ment to near relatives is six
times the primary insurance bene
fit. For example, if calculations
show that the deceased worker’s
primary insurance benefit it $32
and it is found that there is no
survivor entitled to monthly bene-
fit.s. then a relative who is en
titled to the death payment will
receive a check for six times $32
or $192. If no one of the above-
mentioned lelatives is living, a
payment covering the burial ex
penses, up to an amount of six
times th primary insurance
benefit, will be made to the per
son who paid such expenses.

Director Metis said he had

for not more than five years or

It is the policy of the Selective

Justice which is charged enforce

Nevertheless, he stressed, investi

devoted to urgent work for na

To relieve this situation, and
also to protect registrants who do |

London. Sept. 17.—Britain is
on the verge of stern prosecution
of persons involved in a wartime
food racket of great magnitude,
informed persons disclosed to
night.
The first cases may be brought
into court tomorrow. Those in
the know say they will deal with
black market operations involving
hundred? of tons of the mok val
uable foodstuffs, even those
stocks which had been built up
Fs a re.serve against German in
vasion.
I Scotland Yard and operatives
of the food ministry uncovered
the evidence of the racket. Tradi
tionally, official sources main
tained their silence today, even
after-the first story broke in the
I.K)ndon Evening Press.
' It was not ''P"(pected tmw-
ever. for in both the newsprpers
and in parliament there have t een
complaints for months aitont

Newest Destroyer Is
Named For Tar Heel
The keel of the U. S. S. Stan*

Monday at the Charleston Navy
Yard, Charleston, S. C.
The vessel is named for Rear
Admiral Fabius Stanley, U. S. N.,
hero of the Mexican war and civil
war commander of the “state of
Georgia” off the coast of South
Carolina.
He was a native of New Bern,

.said to result from the streamlin
ing of manifolds-and from the
precise working out of the interior
shapes of the engine’s combu.stion’
chamber walls. The contours of
Ithese chambers are such that the
gasoline-and-air combustion en
tering the firing chamber is giv-
;n a violent whirling motion or
‘urhulence which stirs the fuel
charge into a homogeneous mix
ture. Because of that mixing ac
tion, every particle of gasoline i.=
burned up and converted into
power.
The new 105 h. p. power plant
of the newest Dodge is suspend
ed in the box-type chassis frame
by means of the famous -‘‘patent
ed floating-power engine mount
ings” through which the engine
itself is made to absorb the pow
er vibrations which in conven
tional construction.; are trans
mitted to the chassis, running
gear and body of the car.
The floating-power engine
mountings take on additional im
portance because they are em
ployed in cars also incorporating
the Dodge All-Fluid Drive. Till'
Fluid Drive, it will ie remem
bered. hnd its introduction at
the beginning of the 1941 season

is now continued, with improve

car’.- mai-ked operating economy.
Though it is a device of utmost
mechanical simplicity, the Fluir’
orive achieves a surprising num
ber of imuroveiuent'- in driviu'
results. The flexibility of the
new coupling is such that it re
duces gear changing to .points
where the driver, in much of h'-
avefage travel. m?y do without
gear changes, it he choose.?.
The newest Dodge—offered in
ten striking solid colors and eight
two-tone color combinations sup
plemented by two-tone interior
color trim — is of intriguingly
attractive newness and satisfying
completeness. The glamour of
rich ornamentation, the driving
improvements, the comforts pro

riors, are matched by

privileges, in a form that holds

II was the fir.st time since the

of top rank has been the target
of such drastic action by a neu

The vote wa,= 79 to 1. The lone

was rn unconstitutional legislative
