Benefits Available
For Disabled
Children
One of the least known social
security benefits in the childhood,
disability benefit.
This Is the same cash benefit
paid for children under age 18
or students between 18 and 22.
The major difference is that to
be eligible, a child must have
become disabled prior to age 18
and continued to be disabled and
unable to engage in any substan.
tlal gainful work.
The child must also be eligible
on an insured parent's record.
The parent must be deceased or
entitled to retirement or disa
bility Insurance benefits. Often
the mother caring for the disabled
child Is also eligible for benefits.
Many workers nearing retire. '
ment age have disabled children
but do not know that this benefit
is available. Because of total
family social security benefits
payable It is often possible for a
worker to retire or work part
time without a reduction in family
Income.
If you have a child with a severe "
disability and would like more In
formation about childhood disa
bility benefits, contact your
Social security Office. - f

Cotton allotment transfers
were provided by the 1965 Food
and Agriculture Act, and past
referenda on this question have
applied to growing seasons
through 1969. The Congress voted
to extend the Act to cover the
1970 crop year, and the current
referendum will decide the ques

Mr. Nixon said, "We hope
all producers will vote. The vote
should be fully representative of
the wishes of cotton farmers in
our county."
The Chairman said that copies

all cotton producers of record In
the county, together with informa

vise the donation process.
When a person receives your
blood, he pays not for the blood
itself, but only for the small fee
set by the hospital for process
ing, cross-matching and admin
istering the blood. Because Per
quimans County is a participat
ing hospital, this fee he pays is
far less than what he would have
to pay for commercial blood.
Every day in the Tidewater
area, 200 pints of blood are used.
Won't you give in order that
someone may live?
