Veterans
Assistance
To 6.100
The Veterans Administration re
ported today that some 6,100
wives and widows of veterans and
.servicemen are taking advantage
of educational assistance.
W. R. Phillips, Manager of the
Winston-Salem VA Regional Of
fice, said certain wives and wi
dows became eligible for benefits
under the law when it became
effective December 1, 1968.
The law makes educational as
sistance available to wives or wi
dows of veterans with service-
connected total and permanent
disabilities, and widows of vet-
(^ans or servicemen who die of
service-connected causes.
Also eligible are wives or wi
dows of veterans who die of non-
-service - connected causes while
totally and permanently disabled.
In addition, the law covers chil-
d,ren of such veterans and service
men.
Phillips also reported that one
trainee in six was under 25 years
of age when she entered training.
He added that more than half
of the wivks and widow trainees,
about ,54 percent, pursued their
education in college, while about
one in 12, just over 8 percent,
studied in graduate schools.
Almost half of the college
trainees, 48 percent, were enrolled
on a part-time basis, while just
over 85 percent of those studying
•elow college level did so on a
full-time basis, Phillips said.
Phillips urged persons interested
In applying for such benefits to
contact their nearest Regional
VA,Office.

Gaidening Tips
Are (Mfeied
By ARTHUR BILTCUFFE
According to .the zodiac and
moon, beginning March 8 to the
15th is the best days for pruning
and transplanting.
The 18th is picked as the day
fo mow lawns to kill onions, dan
delion and other lawn weeds. Also
the best day to cut out honey
suckle, briar plants, poison oak
and ivy, and other plants you
wish to abolish. The 19th is the
next best day but not as good.
The 20th is the last day for this
line of death dealing situations.
, Muscadine and grapes should
be pruned by now. If you haven’t
be sure not to touch them on the
18-19 and 20th-
This is the last chance to prune
ro.se bushes before the leaves ap-
I pear.
Once the leaves are on the
I bushes it’s too hard to see all
! the correct places that should be
; cut.
I March is also the last month
I to plant rose bushes because the
; drier sea.son will be before roots
can spread to the hard soil that
holds the natural ground “water
table” water.
The best time to plant trees
and bushes Is in the fall when
the first big rains come bade into
! our vicinity. Lessons coming up
I will be about water and bow to
I use it; fertilizers, when to pick
' fruit, when to mow the lawn and
' why, also about possible torna-
1 does and other weather Informa-
' tion that is important to all of
us.
EmploYees
Aie Defined
By IRS
Greensboro — IRS Director, J. E.
Wall, r(‘ported today that there is
an apparent wide-spread mis
understanding, especially among
painting contraclor.s, as to who is
and who is not to be regarded as^
employees by such contrar-tors for
federal income and .Social Secur- j
ity tax withholding purisises. '
He .stated that the practice by
painting contraclor.s seems to be
to treat employees as sub-con
tractors, thereby circumventing
the tax withholding requirement.
Wall cited the tax law in such
ca.sM by .stating that every in
dividual who performs services
.subject to the will and control of
the employer, both as to what|
.shall be done and how it shall be ‘
done, is an employee for the pur
poses of tax withholding, and
that, in such cases, the employer
is required to withhold and .submit
to IRS such taxes reiwrted on
Form 941. !
Wall also stated that it does
not matter that the employer p<*r
mils the employee considerable!
discretion ancl frecniom of action, I
.so long as the employer has the'
legal right to control the method
and the result of the services.
A ruling as to whether an indi
vidual is an independent contrac
tor or employc>e may be obtained
by applying to the IRS. Forms
SS-8 concerning the matter are
available at the IRS office in
Greensboro located at 320 South
Ashe Street, 27401.
