Monroe Agency INSURANCE REAL ESTATE Fire - Auto Casualty - Home Owners! 203 HARRIS AVE. TEL. 875-2186 About Social Security Need Card? Apply Now Students and other people who plan to get a summer job should apply immediately for a Social Security number if the don't have one, according to W.W. Thomas, Social Security district manager in Fayetteville. "You should apply for your number several weeks before you need it for a job covered by Social Security," he said. "Applications must be screened against central files in Baltimore to make sure that a second number isn't issued to that same person. Screening generally takes several weeks. "Your social security number is yours alone and remains the same for life." he said. "A worker builds retirement, disability, survivors. and Medicare protection by work and earnings credited to his social security number. So when you get a job covered by Social Security, be sure your employer copies your name and number correctly from your social security card to his records." More than nine out of ten jobs are covered by social security. People applying for a Social Security number for the first time may be asked to prove their age, identity, and citizenship. "You can get information about applying for a social security number by calling, writing, or visiting any Social Security office," Thomas said. The Fayetteville social security office is at 111 Lamon Street. The phone number is 483-2661.

The pnigram concluded with a rendition of "Happy Birthday, America 6,000 Expected At NCAE Rally A statewide rally of educators planned for May 1 in Raleigh will attract more than 6.000 members of the North Carolina Association of Educators. Dr. A.C. Dawson, executive secretary, said last week. Dr. Dawson said the total attend ance could exceed 10,000. The rally, authorized by the NCEA Representative Assembly meeting in Charlotte last week, is planned to dramatize the demand by teachers for a cost-of-living salary increase from the 1976 General Assembly. The Assembly meets on Monday after the educa tor rally on Saturday. Dr. Dawson said Dorton Arena at the State Fairgrounds will serve as the site for the rally, tentatively slated to begin at 11 a.m. The NCAE official said the format of the rally has not yet been fully developed, but he said he will be "surprised if it is not a lively affair." The rally idea was adopted by the NCEA Representative Assembly as an alternative to a resolution which would have required a statewide "sick-in" by members. The motion to hold the rally left with the NCAE Board of Directors the authority to take whatever action it deems appropriate if the cost-of-living salary increase is not granted. Technically, the Board could still request that members participate in a "sick-in" if the Legislature does not act favorably. 3~Jw ofl ?Ra?^o/id PRaefoul, JV. *?.
