Jaycees Hear Talk
On Social Security
N. A. Avera Urges Persons
To File Claims lor
Benelils
N A Avera, manager of the dis
trict social security office, Wil
mington *o)d Beaufort Jaycees at
a special meeting Wednesday night
at the Inlet Inn. that one of the
main purposes of the social secur
ity program is to keep money in
circulation and maintain purchas
ing power of persons after they
pass the regular wage-earning
stage.
"We have to waste so much
time," he added, "begging, plead
ing, and coaxing so that people will
come to us and inquire if they are
eligible for social security bene
fits."
He said that the amount of bene
fits Carteret countians could col
lect monthly ? and don't?are tre
mendous The social security office
has no way of knowing who should
be getting benefits unless each per
son contacts a social security, rep
reseiuative aftd presents his own
case, the t,peaker declared.
History Reviewed
Mr Avera gave a brief history
of the program which is now 14
years old The social security bill
has been amended twice since its
passage in 1936 Thos^ amend
ments were made in 1939 and 1946
and there is legislations pending
now which would bring further
changes, enlarging the program. At
present there are 30 million who
are not eligible for social security
coverage, the speaker remarked
ine i rut; i ji government, t in
state and county have to dip into
their general funds to take out
money tor welfare cases, when
many of those cases arc eligible
for social security. Mr A vera fur
ther explained that social security
is simply a form of an insurance
The employee pays his "premiums"
while he works and the insurance
is then collectable when he reaches
the age of 65. or if he dies, it is
collectable by his widow and dc
pendents.
The speaker declared that one
of the simplest and best ways to
take the tremendous pressure off
welfare departments for added
funds is to urge people to inquire
about their social security benefits
"That's up to you men," he em
phasized, "and other organizations.
Tell your neighbors to check up
and the money coming into Car
teret county Will continually in
crease."
Mr. Avera remarked that the a
mount of benefits lost here would
more than pay for a person to work
full time, offering advice and in
formation on the social security
program
A total of 228 monthly benefit
claims, amounting to $3,294 are
paid in Cm teret county Seventy
four of th. e are to retired wage
earners (11,511 total), 30 wives
($315), 84 minors ($813).
Ten eount!"s are in this area be
sides Carteret They are Pender,
Pamlico, (.hislow, New Hanover,
Jones. Duplin, ( raven. <.'olumbus.
Brunswick, and BMden The annual
social security payment in these
counties is $570,648, which does
not include lump sum payments.
During the business session
which followed the talk it was re
ported that $1,500 in loans has been
obtained to finance placement of
lights at the ball park and the
group voted down a proposal to
support the state Jaycee directory
The Jaycees said they were ready
to play ball next Wednesday in a
game with the Junior Woman's
club. President George Cottingham
announced that the board of direc
tors^!! meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday
at Holden's restaurant.
Veterans who plan to attend
summer school under the G1 bill
of rights and who have not yet
applied for a certificate of eligi
bility, should contact C. L. Beam,
county veterans service officer,
and that other officers were assist
ing him.
As soon as the meeting was call
ed to order Thomas Wade and Pnwk
O'Neal stepped forward to say
they were "agin' it," "it" being the
referendum which makes it legal
now to tax Morehead City residents
10 cents per hundred dollars to
set up a recreation program
Wade and O'Neal said they wish
ed to protest the referendum City
Attorney George McNeill asked on
what grounds They said none ex
cept that they thought the program
wpuld be impossible The city at
torncy pointed out that under ex
isting statutes there were no
grounds for protest unless the elec
tion could be proved unlawful in
some manner.
Wade and O'Neal did not regis
ter and therefore did not vote for
or against the referendum.
Commissioner Walter Freeman
said he thought the referendum
was all wrong in that he did not
believe 74 persons should be per
mitted to raise the tax rate of the
entire population of Morehead City.
The group agreed but Attorney Me
, Neill again pointed out that no
matter how true their statements
were, the Jaw still stood, the ret
I eieudum was valid.
However, it was stated that some
persons were mistaken in their be
lief that money from the tax would
be m ?ii to maintain and operate
; the present recreation buihling. In
i stead, it wai> explained, the amount
; raised through taxts probably will
! be insufficient to even attempt to
! keep the building open and prob
j ably an outdoor recreation pro
i gram will be instituted instead.
Fishermen Protest
After Wade and O'Neal's depar
ture a group of charter boat fish
ermen appeared to protest the em
ployment of the charter boat cap
tain. Hubert Fulcher, as a More
I head City policeman. They said he
was not giving the town a good
day's work and also he was solicit

court term, of Sheriff C. G. Hoi
land who is leaving Tuesday for
California.
No recorder's court was held
