North Carolinians Request
Survey on Shad > Herring
Washington ? (AP) ? ? Fed
eral survey to find out why shad
and herring have decreased in Al
bemule and Pamlico Sounds In
Nortff Carolina was urged at a re
cent Congressional hearing
The House Merchant Marine and
Fisheries Committee had before it
a bill by Rep. Bonner (DN.C.) au
thorizing such a study by the Fish
and Wildlife Service.
Bonner, W. R. Hampton of Ply
mouth, N. C., of the State Board of
Conservation and Development; W
A. Rawls of Rocky Mount, N. C.,
arii Milton C. James, assistant di
rector of the Fish and Wildlife Ser
vice. ,^aid the surveys would bene
fit the whole Atlantic coast.
Hampton baid the shad and her
ring catch in the Chowan River
area of Albemarle Sound alone
dropped almost 4.000,000 pounds
between 1939 and *(49.
He said only the fqtieral govern
ment has facilities capable of mak
ing a sufficiently broad survey He
estimated the study would take at
lecst two years and cost from
000 to $35,000 as year.
Rawls supported Hampton's tes
timony. He suggested pollution,
overfishing and closing of ocean
inlets to the sounds as major causes
for the decrease in fish.
James said the Wildlife Service
the purpose, is insufficient.
He said the Bonner bill would
enable the service to make a "pin
point" survey which would be ap
licable to other areas.

Students Should
Obtain Social
Security Number
Many students will work during
Jlie coming summer vacation pe
riod. Some of them will remain at
work rather than continue in
school. Most of those who work,
whether temporarily or |>crtna
nently. will be affected by social
security. Facts about that program
follow:
Kvery person who works on a
job covered under social security
must have a social security card
The card may be obtained by call
ing in person 01 by writing to the
social security office located in
Wilmington. N C. An application
may be obtained also from the
local post office.
The account with the federal
government i.1 set up under the
name and number shown on the
social security card Employers
are required to report wages to
the federal government every
three months. Therefore, it is im
portant that each employer know
his workers' numbers so that he
can report wages correctly Since
future social security benefits will
be based on the amount of wages
in the account, failure to get credit
for all wages will aflect the amount
of benefit.
The old age and Aurvivors instir
ance program which is geneially
referred to as "social security/' is
admiiftstcrcd entirely by the fed
eral government This is an insur
ance program and its purpose is to
protect workers and their families
against the insecurity of old-age
and death.
Monthly benefits are payable to
the retired worker at age fib or
later, to his wife when she is
and to his unmarried children tin
del" the age of IB In addition, ben
cfits are payable when the work
er dies, regardless of his ;?gc. to
his 65-year-old widow, to his wid

entitled to benefits. and to his iin
