Young Workers
Urged To Obtain Social
Security Cards
Some srtuden4s now have part
time jobs. They may be working
in stores, or in slices after school
and on Saturdays. As more men
go into tihe armed forces, and as
more men and women find jobs
in war and other essential indus
tries, added numbers of boys and
girls will obtain social security
cards arxl go into after-school
work.
D. W. Lajnbert, manager of the
Social Security Board field office
at Asheville, says that every pupil
who takes a job should realize t?he
ini]K>rtance of safeguarding his ac
count number card. The card rep
resents his insurance policy with
the Federal Government It is the
key to the wage credit which he
will receive as a result of employ
ment in jobs covered by the old
age and survivors insurance sys
tem. In due time those wage cred
its may entitle him to monthly
benefits for himself and his fam
ily #
The young worker should guard
h*s social security account number
card as he would any other im
portant document. He is advised
also to copy his number carefully
and keep that record handy. The
card itself could be kept in a s,afe
box or drawer together with im
portant fami-ly documents.
Because Americans are too care
Jess with their account number
cards, the Social Security Board
issued 1,861,000 duplicate cards dur
ing the yeat/*!$41. The duplicate
cards issucd%ir? 1941 alone cost the
Federal Government $500,000 ? a
sum which would buy R33 machine
guns or 555 jeeps or 25,000,000
rounds of j>istoJ ammunitatior*.

Payments To Dependent*
Of Those Missing '
In Action
Payments to dependents of mili
tary or civilian personnel, officially
reported missing, missing in action,
captured or interred, are authoriz
ed by laiw,. it was announced today
by Headquarters, Fourth Service
Command.
These payments may be by con
tinuation df .previously made allot
ments, by increases in such allot
ments, or by making new allot
ments, deductions to be made from
the pay which accrues to the cred
it of the missing person, according
to the regulation.
Increased or additional allot
ments may not exceed the amount
required for the reasonable supfKwt
of dependents and in no case may
tlney, with other deductions from
pay,. exceed the base and longevity
pay to be credited to the aibsent
person.
It is pointed out that other re
lief authorizations in this law in
clude payments of insurance (prem
iums by allotments from pay and
provision for transportation of de
pende ts and effects of persons
killed, injured or missing, as a
result of military operations.
The alvov* regulation is in addi
tion to Form 023* covering family
allowance payments made to de
pendents of enlisted men in the
four lowest grades. However, ?n
cr eased allotments may be made
to those dependents to cover an
emergency or to supplant a family
allowance which is proved to be
inadequate.
EaYiphasis is made of tjie impor
tance of soldiers in these grades
making family allowance applica
tions (Form 625), since this allow
ance continues if the soldier is
later reported missing, captured or
interned. Should a soldier in these
four grades have no family allow
ance in effect and is reiported
missing, a dependent needing sup
port should apply for -the family
allowance and inlay also make
application for an additional allot
ment from the soldier's pay, if the
family allowance can be proved
insufficient.
Dependents finding it necessary
to make application for family al
lowances or for additional allot
ments and services, are advised to
contact the nearest Red Cross
chapter, which will assist in pre
paring such applications, or to
writ,e directly to the Dependency
Allotment Section, Allowance and
Allotment Branch, A. G. 0. Build
