Many Farm Workers Under New Program mm 'i":i m AArAW ■■ ■> !■?'''Jfcl fi'^^fpliflr v;■ / *g ? Regular farm workersi-per-r haps as many as 6000 of them in the Rocky Mount area—have come under the Federal social security 4aw beginning January 1, 1951, according to Marshall H. Barney, manager of the Rocky Mount social Security of fice, which Serves Jones and Le noir counties. ' ' Dairy farming will lead to old age and survivors insurance pro tection for the largest number of farm people in this area, Barney believes. He emphasizes that it is the regular farjn worker who is paid*eash wages who will come under the . law—not the itiner ant, seasonal, dir part-time work efA hew leaflet, “Notice to Farmers with Regular Hired Help” explains how the farm operator can tell whether any of his employees are covered by the law. Issued by the Bureau of In ternal Revenue, the leaflet is available from the Collector of Internal Revenue at Greens boro, the Social Security Ad ministration at Rocky Mount, or 1 from offices of county agents or Production Marketing Adminis tration. Many banks also have copies of the notice. In addition to explaining Just -what farm workers are covered the leaflet contains a tear-off -slip, Form SS-4a, which the farm operator should complete apd mail if he has employees 1 will be cohered by the law. ^^ ifbout mafcr. And copies of the reporting ADMINISTRATRIX’ NOTICE Having qualified as Adminis tratrix of the estate of J. H. McDaniel, deceased, late of Jones County, North Carolina, this is to notify all persons having claims against the estate of said receased to exhibit them to the undersigned at Rt. No. 2, Dover, N. C., on or before the 18th day of January, 1952, or this notice will be pleaded in bar -of their recovery. All persons indebted to said estate will please make immediate payment. This, the 18th day of January, 1951. Carrie Mae P. McDaniel, Administratrix of J. H. McDaniel, deceased. Whitaker & Jeffress, Attys. Kinston, N. C. 2-22-c blanks, will be sent to farmers who mail this form to the collec tor of internal revenue. Although the new law brings farm work under the social se curity system for the first time, the system will not be new to thousands of the farm workers. Many of them made a substan tial start toward old-age and survivors insurance payments by working in commercial or indus trial jobs at some time since 1936. Some of them worked in Wat plants, and others are vet erans of World War n, who will receive social security credits for their military service. Regularly employed farm workers who do not have a so cial security account number card should secure one within the next few weeks. The account number Is necessary in order to insure proper social security credit for the worker’s wages. Applications for the account number card are in every post office. The card is Issued at no cost to the worker. “Not all farm workers are covered by the new law,” Bar ney emphasizes. The farm op erator himself does not receive the protection of old-age and survivors insurance, nor do farm workers who work less than five months for one employer. Before he can be covered by the law, a farm worker must work for an employer during a qualifying period of one full cal endar quarter. This may be the last calendar quarter of I960— October, November, and Decem ber. After he has served the quali fying period, the employee will earn social security credit for each succeeding calendar quar ter of employment by the same operator as long as he continues to work at least 60 days on a full-time basis in each calendar quarter, and earns at least $50 in each quarter. He will also be covered for the first quarter in which he works less than 60 days if he earns cash wages of ait least $50. In this event, before.he can be covered in any. future quarter, he must again serve a qualifying period. Soil conservation means sav ings to the farmer in seed, fer tilizer, labor, and power as well as increased income. PUBLIC AUCTION SALE KNOWN AS W. C. GEORGE TRACT Owned by Richard L. George.
