5 1967 Firemen’s Carnival August 31 - September 1 and 2 10c Copy A group of about 45 blind children from the metropolitan area were feted with an outing Saturday at Glen Eyrie, the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Miko, and Mountain Green, the home of Mrs. Marietta Cheatham. Games, music, hayrides, gifts, a helicopter ride and plenty of refreshments were features of the day. Serving orangeade furnished by McDonald’s Drive-Ins are Linda Moss and Judy Rosenthal. They are serving Patty Owen and her guide Sgt. Don Dawson, and Susan Robinson and guide Sgt. Mike Kelly. U. S. Marine Corps personnel assisted with the children. (Other pictures on page 4.) Blind Children Feted with Picnic At Glen Eyrie for Second Time A group of blind children from the metropolitan area experienced a day in the country Saturday when they were entertained at Glen Eyrie, the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Robert J. Miko and at Mountain Green the farm of Mrs. Marietta Cheatham in Rappahannock County near Washington, Va. This is the second time these ^youngsters have visited here %under the sponsorship of the Downtown Chapter of the Jay cees of Washington, D. C. The Downtown Jaycees with the cooperation of the Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind arrange transportation and a day of activities for these handicapped children. Many hours of planning and the assistance of numerous individuals and establishments is needed to execute the event. Attending the outing were about 45 blind children assist ed by Jaycee members and their families and personnel from the U. S. Marine Corps stationed at Henderson Hall. Sen. and Mr6. Kuchel were present to see the group off from Washington. He is the senior senator from California and she is a member of the Board of Trustees of the Columbia Lighthouse. Two large buses of the U.S. Marine Corps, operated by Cpl. Tommy Roberts andCpl. George Davis III Receives Law Degree George Hiter Davis III of Washington, Va. was graduated from the College of Law of the University of Tennessee on August 23, 1967 with the degree of Doctor of Jurisprudence. Commencement exercises were held in the Knoxk.fllle Civic Coliseum for the 772 graduates of the summer quarter. Mr. Davis attended Rappahannock County High School, completing his studies there in 1^59. He was graduated from the University of Virginia in 1963 and entered U. T. for his graduate study in 1965. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. George H. Davis, Jr. of Washington, who with their daughters, Misses Dorothy Taylor and Drucilla Davis, attended the commencement last week. Ken Guenter, transported the group to Rappahannock. They arrived shortly before noon at the Miko farm where braziers were in readiness for barbecuing hot dogs and hamburgers. orangeade bubbled in a dispenser and picnic tables awaited the hungry guests. It would be difficult to estimate the quantities of meats, drinks, potato chips, cookies and ice cream consumed by the more than 75 present. Wagons piled with hay and pulled by tractors took the children around Glen Eyrie on hay rides and ponies also afforded rides for them. All boys in the group were given base ball caps and the young ladies received necklaces as a gift, and there were balloons for everyone. Highlighting the day was the arrival of Capt. DanRosenson in the traffic helicopter from Radio Station VVWDC Washing-] ton, D. C. who took the children for air rides around the1 Harris Hollow valley. Mr. RosJ enson reports rush hour traf-! Labor Day Weekend Traffic Dangers Noting that Labor Day week- i end is consistently the most dangerous holiday weekend of the year, Colonel C. W. Woodson, Jr., Superintendent of State Police and Chairman of I the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee, asked that the | motoring public keep this well; in mind. Last year, the Nation’s 850 deaths far exceeded those of each of the main holidays, all three-day weekends. The others were Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Christmas and New Year's Day. Virginia’s Labor Day weekend toll j was 16, worst for that holiday since the 17 of 1962. The Nation’s set a record. Colonel Woodson said that it appears to be customary to make the weekend the last fling of summer and this desire is heightened by the imminent opening of schools and the last opportunity for families to be together on a long weekend trip until they close again. Otherwise, he noted that the same conditions exist in heightened form which make all weekends, particularly summer ones, dangerous. “We have the same old killers," he said, “alcohol, speed, haste, exhaustion, night driving and heavy traffic. “These have been brought to public attention many times before," he continued. “However, here are two pieces of advice all motorists should bear In mind. Drive defensively. You don’t have to be at fault yourself to be killed or injured. Get rid of the ‘it can’t happen to me’ complex. Each one of the 850 people who died in traffic during the holiday last year fhmiorht incf rhar * fic in the city over WWDC. A combo, the “Last Sunee Day", entertained from the front porch of Glen Eyrie with tne latest in "cool' music. They were secured by the Warrenton Jaycees who also collaborated with the days efforts. A hayride was arranged to take the picnickers from the ISiko farm to Mountain Green a couple of miles distant for (Continued on Page 2) Local Artists Win in Culpeper Art Show Artists from Rappahannock County who received awards for exhibits at the Culpeper Art Fair held Saturday and Sunday were: Mrs. James Smith who was awarded six ribbons, three for photography and three for paintings. Her photograph, “The Old Osage Tree* took a blue ribbon and she received two white ribbons for “Nip 'n Tuck* and “Butterflies Delight.* Her therpe painting, “Oliver’s Retreat* netted a yellow ribbon, her watercolor, “Grandma’s Butter Factory,* a white ribbon and her oil “Peyton House,* a white. Mr6. J. L. Kilby’s oil painting, “Martha,* received a red ribbon and her watercolor portrait, “Mary Magdalene at the Cross,* a yellow. Mrs. Charles Estes was awarded a white ribbon for her oil portrait, “Mountain Woman." Other Rappahannock artists who exhibited in the Art Fair were Joseph C. Carter, Mrs. Stewart Butler, Arthur Cheatham, Mrs. E. N. Montague and Mrs. Carter White. There were 600 entries from 25 Virginia communities including Richmond, Arlington, and Falls Church. Larry Hackley of Amissville received honorable mention for “The Alley*; collage and for an etching. Fire and Rescue Squad Notes The Flint Hill Rescue Squad took Stanley Foster from his home in Flint Hill to the Winchester Memorial Hospital Wednesday morning. The Amissville Rescue Squad was called Thursday to take H. W. Lehman from his home to Culpeper Memorial Hospital. Last Wednesday the Rappahannock Rescue Squad respond ed to a traffic crash on Route; 522 near Sperryville and took Mrs. Charles Lewis Jenkins of Culpeper and her three children to Culpeper Memorial Hr)onU»l Voluntary Induction Under Remedial Program !

It has become a major financial expenditure in many families. In some cases, in fact, where there are two or more children to send to college, it actually involves a bigger capi tal investment than was made for the family home. The bill that local parents will be shouldering this year for college tuition alone, will amount to approximately $201,000, it is estimated. Facts and figures on college enrollments and costs have become available as the result of surveys and studies made by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, the Institute of Life Insurance and others. Nationally, they show, the number of college students has been rising sharply, going from 2,935,000 to 6,400,000 in the last six years. In Rappahannock County, the number has gone from approxr mately 70 in 1960 to an estimated total of 130 at the present time. For the ones who are going to publicly supported colleges the average cost per year for tuition and other fees is a little more than $1,000 and, for those at private institutions, an average of $2,100, according to government find ings. Thus, assuming that the 130 local students are equally divided among the publicly and privately operated colleges, the overall outlay for one year comes to $201,000. And this does not include other costs -- for clothes, room and board, books, luggage, transportation and the like. Including all these expenses, it might cost a family up to $3,200 a year to keep a youngster in a private college and up to $1,800 in a public college, according totheFami ly Economist, an insurance publication. Which means that the total investment for a family with three children at college for four years would range up to $38,400 if they choose private colleges and up to $21,600 at public colleges. The number of Rappahannock County families whose in comes are sufficient to absorb this kind of economic shock is on the increase, the figures indicate. Apple Growers OK Price To Processors Virginia apple growers have agreed on a recommended price to processors for this season, Robert B. Delano, Virginia Farm Bureau President, announced today. The Apple Committee of the Virginia Farm Bureau Marketing Association arrived at a price posture after a complete study of the apple industry. The following prices were recommended for growers to charge apple processors: Apples for sauce, $4.50 per hundred pounds. York apples of U. S. grade No. 1 and 2 1/2 inches and up, $4.75 to $5.00 per hundred pounds. (Last year’s recommended price was $3.75) Preferred apples of U. S. Grade No. 1 and 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 inches, $3.00 to $3.25. Sauce apples of same grade and size, $3.00. U. S. Grade No. 2 and two inches to 2 1/4 in size, $2.25. Juice apples in truckload lots, $2.25. Cider apples, $1.50 per hundred pounds. j The price recommended for I this year’s Virginia crop is based on a study of all the economic factors in the apple iindustry," said Ben Lacy, a Front Royal grower. He is a member of the Virginia Apple Committee for the Virginia Farm Bureau Marketing Association, and is also chair man of the American Farm Bureau Marketing Association Apple Committee. J. Robert Russell, committee member from Frederick County and a member of the Virginia Farm Bureau Federick board of directors said “These are realistic prices for both the grower and the processor. The marketing association and other growers feel that $5.00 for the York apple is in line with today’s economy." * The apple committee of the AFB Marketing Association is composed of representatives from eight apple producing states. Some of the economic factors considered in the establishment of these prices were: picking costs, short supply and good demand, declining carryover of sauce, increasing costs to both grower and processors, and the short supply of other fruit. ’ Harvest Festival j A Fall Harvest Festival, under the auspices of the Rappahannock Jaycees and the Sperryville Fire Department, is planned for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, September 7,8 and 9. It will be held at the Sperryville carnival grounds and will feature rides, games prizes, good food and amusements for all. Among prizes to be given away is a 600 pound Black Angus donated by Eldon Farm, Woodville, and a black walnut rocking chair. These will be awarded Saturday night. Rides are assembled Tuesday afternoon at the Castleton Carnival grounds in preparation for the opening tonight of the Firemen’s Carnival there. The carnival continues through Saturday night, September 2 at which time a number of prizes will be given away.

The public is invited to join the community in the support of the fire company. I I I | August Rainfall Total rainfall for the month of August measured 7.99 inches in Amissville, according to Miss Lucille Riley who manages the official weather gauge there. She also stated that this was the heaviest rainfall in any one month in the past five years. From Sunday, August 20 through the morning of August 29, the gauge showed a total of 5.68 inches of rain. Precipitation measured at the gauge in Washington by Miss Ruby Jenkins for the month of August totaled 9.80 inches with 7.57 inches report ed falling in the period of August 20 through 29. In comparison rainfall in August of 1966 totaled 1.2 at the Washington gauge. This was the owest report since 1951 when ■ pnly l inch was recorded here. In 1949 the'August rainfall neasured 7.85 and in 1948 It totaled 7.78 for that month. Rainfall measured at the Wash ington station to date in 1967 Is 28.49 inches. Trinity Church Winter Schedule Announced On September 3, Trinity Shurch will begin again its winter schedule of Sunday school at 9:30 a.m., and Morning Prayer at 11:00 a.m. During July and August Sunday School was suspended, and there was a Family Service at 10:00 a.m. This allowed the families to worship together as a family group instead of children attending Sunday School at 9:30 and adults to church at 11 o’clock as normal. This summer schedule also allowed the teachers a change of pace for these two months. The early 10:00 a.m. service took good advantage of the cooler hours in the earlier part of the day. The results of this summer experiment have not yet been assessed. Elementary School Enrollment Is 809 Enrollment a t the elementary schools in the county on opening day was 809. The Rappahannock County High School enrollment was 315, making a total enrollment of 1124. This is a total increase of 15 students over the opening day enrollment of last year.

If your family is planning the final big outing for the year, I hope that you will make it a safe one, not only for yours, but for everyone else who may be around. The reads will be even more crowded than they have in the past and I hope that everyone will lake time to remember that “Cou rtes> is Contagious” everywhere, even on the highway. *** . Children are back in school now and it’s time we again become aware of conditions in the home which may affect their study habits. We should take great effort to provide them with proper lighting and a good quiet study area. Lights should be soft, covered with a good shade, and if at all possible, have a diffusing dish to eliminate direct glare. Glare! coming from an uncovered bulb will probably cause eye; strain, which, if allowed to continue, could cause perm^ nent eve damage. A child will also j*et tired and will lose interest in reading material more quickly, if an uncovered bulb is the only source of light. (Editor s note: Here is another in a series on con<■ sumer education by Don Long of the agricultural economics department at Virginia Tech). Every so often, quite often in fact, someone asks me about the advisability of buying nationally advertised brandsver sus buying private label foods. Yet, in spite of its frequent appearance, I am never sure just how to answer the question. Any realistic and meaningful answer depends on a person's values, his economic well being, long-run versus short-run considerations anc many other things. There are, however, things which may greatly affect our decisions. How these will affect us will vary from person to person. It is pretty cer jtain though, that they should | be considered when making a choice. Generally speaking, private label foods do carry a lower price tag than a similar quality nationally advertised food. There are good reasons for this. For one thing, the company with the nationally advertised brand probably has quite a bit of research money tied up in the food. There was research involved in developing and testing the food. There was research involved in market testing it. All this takes money, money which the com pany must recover in some way. Then, the nationally advertised brand had to carry a market development cost. Few foods just burst on the market as an immediate success. It takes money, time and hard work to convince you and me to buy a new food regularly. This investment too must be recovered if the product is to stay on the market and the company in business. So, from a strictly economic point-of-view, the private label food usually is a better value. It doesn't have to carry development costs; it doesn’t have to pay for a new place in the sun. So prices can be lower. Yet, we also need this research and development work. Someone must do it. At the present time, those companies with widely advertised brands do most of this. In the long run, they need support though, through the purchase of their products. If this support fails, the flow of new products that we like so well will dry up due to a lack of research and development money. Library Lines Our Library of Civil War history was enriched by the gift of Douglas S. Freeman's “Lee’s Lieutenants," in 3 volumes: I. Manassas to Malvern Hill II. Cedar Mountain to Chancellorsville III. Gettysburg to Appomattox Douglas Southall Freeman’s work is the story of the Army of Northern Virginia and of the generals who fought under Rob ert E. Lee. It is not only a concise narrative of the Civil War but is considered a comprehensive military hi& tory of that period, giving much biographical informa CHILDREN’S PICNIC— (Cpntinued from Page 1) svKiAming, boating and play on a ‘trampoline. However, enroute a sudden spate caused the group to take refuge in the John R. DeBergh barn, though not before they were drenched. Spirits were not dampened and the day continued with swimming in a portable pool furnished by Sears inWarrenton, boat rides on the Cheatham pond while others had their “ups and downs" on the trampoline. David Paulson of Greenbelt, Md. was the Jaycee chairman of the event and directed the activities. Also present was Bob Summers, chairman last year, who was named “Man of the Year" by the Jaycees for this project in 66. VEA Announces Current Program The Virginia Education Association (VEA) has announced its instructional program for the current school year including a fall statewide conference on sex education, a spring statewide conference on effective organization for instruction and the employment of a consultant^ in-residence on staff development and utilization. “Sex Education - A School Responsibility?" is the theme for the November 16-18conference in Roanoke. National experts from Kansas, Connecticut, Missouri, and Washington, D. C. will be present to explain the status of sex education in the nation, while Virginia authorities will bring the participants up to date on sex education programs under way in a few areas of the state. bex education programs at all levels of public schooling, including elementary and primary grades, will be explained, and the ramifications of sex education will be discussed from the viewpoint of the parent, the clergy, and the medical profession. Details of the second conference—to be held in the spring—have not yet been announced. Each of the conferences is expected to draw approximately 500 school personnel. The VEA instructional conferences are designed to provide in-depth exploration of current instructional issues, making available expert opinion, nationwide experiences, and recent research findings to Virginia localities. Dr. James Olivero, a National Education Association staff member and an authority on staff development and utilization, has been secured as VEA consultant-in-residence. His services will be made available to interested localities this spring. The announcement of his employment follows a “highly successful* Virginia tour by the first VEA consultant-inresidence, Dr. Ethel Thompson. tion about Pierre Beauregard, John Magruder, “Jeb* Stuart, Wade Hampton, John Pelham, Thomas Jackson and others.

Failure to do so can bring tragedy to you and your family, the Amercan Insurance Association warns. All too frequently, people doze off while smoking in bed, or on a couch or sofa, and accidentally set fire to their premises. Before anyone is aware that something is burning, toxic gases produced by the fire may asphyxiate you and others asleep nearby, the Association points out. Hardly a day passes that tragedy in this manner doesn’t strike some family. All kinds of fires take a heavy toll of American lives each year: in I960 more than 12,000 persons lost their lives in fires, and more than 2,000 of these were children. County To Share in Aid to Education Four projects totaling $287,317 to aid 1,417 educationally disadvantaged children in Page, Shenandoah, Warren, land Rappahannock c o u n t i e s have been approved for the 1967-68 school year under provisions of Title I of the t El'ementary and Secondary i Education Act, the Federal I Programs Office of the State ! Department of Education said today. The largest expenditure is $112,060 for a project to provide instruction in kindergarten education, special education, remedial reading, and industrial arts to 270 pupils in Page County. The industrial arts offer ing will include home economics education. Clothing, food, health, and psychological services will be included in the program, Department officials said. Shenandoah County will spend $75,310 to offer a remedial reading program to 345 underachievers in grades three through eight. A staff I of 19 persons, including nine teachers and eight teacher aides, will conduct the project, federal programs officials said. The Warren County project will cost $53,797 for reading instruction for 465 pupils in grades one through eight. The Title I staff will consist of 19 teacher aides, one supervisor, and a part-time clerk. Inservice education will be offered to the staff and to the 71 teachers who will be paid by the county and will work with the program. A “Language Arts and Vocational Education Program for the Academically Deprived” will be conducted by Rap pahannock County. The project which will cost $46,150 to aid 337 pupils in grades one through 12, will offer instruction in reading, speech, and vocational education. The vocational training will be designed for 30 high school students, the agency said. Flooding Causes Highway Damage Road damage totaling an estimated $100,000 was caused by flooding in several areas of Virginia late last week, the State Highway Department j said today. 1 Hardest hit was Fairfax County, where damage totaled approximately $25,000 to the primary system and an additional $50,000 to secondary roads. A section of L’S Route 29211 in Fairfax was blocked to j traffic Friday when rampaging waters from an ordinarily: small creek severely damaged! an 18-foot bridge. Maintenance forces worked: through the weekend on this span, and reopened it to traffic on Tuesday, August 29. A secondary road in Pittsylvania County also remained, closed to traffic today.

In a reply to an inquiry from the Seventh District Congressman as to what the U. S. "Fish and Wildlife Service had in mind as to new approachfes to the problem, John S.Gottschalk, Director of the Bureau, an agency of the Department of the Interior, replied, in part: "We plan to use a portion of the increased appropriation for carrying out an intensified .educational program to disseminate the known information on bird control techniques As a part of this effort, we are assembling a team of welltrained biologists as a mobile task force for temporary assignment to various states when seasonal crop depreda tions become severe. These personnel will conduct demonstration of control methods an carry out field tests of new materials and devices, and adapt them to local situations. They will also conduct damage .assessment studies to determine the extent and nature of depredation problems and eval luate the effectiveness of different control methods. “The intensified and expanded research program will ibe focused on the development of more selective and less hazardous control materials and devices. It will include an ‘expanded search for reproductive inhibitors, selective ‘lethal agents, repellents and Sanesthetizing drugs. Promising new control materials will be field tested in all regions of the country where serious crop depredation situations occur. The funds allotted for the initial ld(?8 research phase of the project ‘will be used to select a research center site and to make the preliminary engineering ^designs for this facility." look. uim A Watch THIS Space for the HAPPENING at FURNITURE COMPANY Front Royal, Virginia

Silo Guard is not so additive as urea. Many of you farmers will be starting to fill your silos soon, in the next week or so, with corn silage, SILO GUARD IS A FERMENTATION CONTROL PROCESS, not poisonous to animals or humans. Urea is a versatile, high nitrogen, synthetic compound. It is an excellent and Inexpensive source of protein for beef and dairy cattle, but It must be handled with care. Manitoba Province Nutritionist, J. C. Brown, says that an overdose of urea In a ration or poor mixing can result in sick and even dead animals. (Reprinted from Holstein Friesian journal). Ureafad cows will milk very heavily for three or four months. Then we find a metabolic breakdown whlchwlll introduce an increase In cAses of Acetonemia and lower the daily resistance of the animal body. Silo Guard does not have to be handled with care. Silo Guard causes silage to preserve Itself by starting fermentation, quick-pickling the silage. It cuts and controls the fermentation and allows the silage in order to preserve Itself. The VPI NE-index goes higher by saving thatwhich is already In the forage. Silo Guard does not add anything; urea adds only to protein while Silo Guard saves toali five of the Indices. Seventy cents will treat one ton of silage, a great savings to *ny farmer. Our countyandasslstantcountyagentsknow about Silo Guard but are not obligated to recommend it. 1 believe It is their duty to find out the advantages and pass them along to the farmers without purge to any other corporation.

This was an alltime high for any one year. The number of seedlings planted during the past halfcentury now totals 568,605,775 This information was obtained from a report compiled by VIRGINIA FORESTS, Inc., in cooperation with the Virginia Division of Forestry. It will appear in detail in the Fall issue of “Virginia Forests" maga zine. Of the more than 55 million ■seedlings planted, 50.2 million were loblolly pine. White pine accounted for 4.2 million of the total, followed by Virginia pine with 529 thousand and shortleaf pine with 358 thousand. Red, pitch, Scotch, longleaf, and slash pines, together with Norway spruce, added up to another 68 thousand. Yellow poplar was the leading hardwood species with a total of 188 thousand. Black locust came next with 45 thousand, followed by green ash (22 M) and white ash (6 M ). Tupelo, sweet, and black gums, together with hybrid and cherry bark oaks, combined for the remaining 6 thousand. Also, other than seedlings, a total of 22,500 black walnuts were distributed to Virginia landowners for planting. Of those who planted seedlings during the past year, pulp and paper companies accounted for 27.1 million, nearly half the total. In addition, they gave away another \_7.8 million to forest landowners, either free or on a matching basis. Other forest industries planted on their own lands some 5.4 million seedlings, and contributed 400 thousand free or on a matching ba s i s- to neighboring landjwners. Non-forestlandholding industries planted 385 thousand seedlings. Farmers and other small individual landowners combined to plant a total of 20.7 million young trees, of which 8.2 million were received free from forest industry. Additionally, state, federal, and municipal or county agencies put out some 2.0 million seedlings on public lands. On the basis of an estimated 650 seedlings per acre, the 55.7 million trees planted this year represents the reforestation of nearly 85,650 acres of idle agricultural land or cutover woodland. An additional 6,200 acres were reforested by direct seeding, raising the total reforestation program for the year up to almost 92,000 acres. x nib year erop ox seeulings was grown primarily by the Virginia Division of Forestry at its New Kent and Charlottesville nurseries. They accounted for 40,136,350 of the total. The second most important source of seedlings was the Continental Can Company nursery in Chesterfield County, which produced 11,621, XX). The total was rounded out by the purchase of 3,437,000 seedlings from the North Caro lina Department of Conservation and 46,000from West Virginia, with 160,000 being obtained from a TVA nursery in Tennessee, 153,000 from a USFS nursery in Mississippi, and 123,000from industry nurseries in North Carolina. Seedlings were planted ill every county in Virginia except Arlington; and additionally, in the cities of Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, and Virginia Beach. The leading tree planting county was Buckingham, with a total of 3,005 M to its credit.

Now, t thanks to Medicare, people are ' becoming more aware of the i- fact that there are many peo; pie other than their nurse and . private doctor who contribute to their well-being and recovery. One of the ways they find out is when the hospital hands I them a bill for charges not i covered by Medicare. These are generally the charges of “hospital-based physicians," that is, doctors who are employees of the hospital or who are under contract to thehos-, pital. Some examples of this type of doctor are pathologists, radiologists, or anesthesiologists. The services of these physicians are not covered by -the hospitalization part of Medicare but are covered by the supplemental medical insurance part of Medicare. The cost of the services of these “hospital-based physicians" must be specifically billed by the physician or by the hospital on his behalf. Reimbursement for the jcharges of these doctors may ;be claimed in the same way a s the costs of a patient’s lprivate doctor. A detailed explanation of how to claim these ■ benefits is found on page 16 jand 17 of “Your Medicare (Handbook." Anyone who does (not have a copy of this handjbook or has a question about Social Security, should write, phone or visit the Social Security Office located at 20 S. Cameron St., Winchester, Va., phone 667-1511. SERVICE LIME and FERTILIZER i SPREADING Magnesium or High Calcium. Lime at the same price. Rappahannock Farmer’* Co-op., Inc Phone 987-2311 Sperry vi He, Vs. Your Southern States Cooperative Agency Today’s worker is constantly faced with the problem “What will I do if I have td stop work because of illness". Some of the unanswered questions which keep going over and over in his mind are, "How will I pay the rent’ or "How will I meet the mortgage payment", “How will I pay for groceries", "How will I be able to keep Johnny in college", just to mention a few that cause the worker many restless nights. Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, Social ; S e c u r i t y District Manager, has some of the answers to these plaguing questions. To protect workers against the loss of earnings because of disability the social security law was amended in 1954 to include payment of social security benefits to the worker and certain dependents should he have to quit work because of illness. When the law was first passed in 1954, an individual worker was required to have a permanent disability before benefits could be paid. In other words, to qualify for social security disability benefits, an individual had to have a mental or physical impair ment that was expected to continue for a long and indefinite period of time, or to result in death. However, Mrs. Daly stated, that definition of disability has been changed. With the amendments to the social security law in 1965, payment of disability monthly bene tits is no longer limited to a person with a permanent disability. Now, a worker may qualify for disability benefits if he has an impairment that has or is expect ed to last at least 12 months Benefits can still be paid to certain dependents of the disabled worker under the new law, the same as under the old. The change in the law applies to the expected duration of an illness only and does not IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of my dear Mother, Mrs. Virginia J. Racer, who passed away Sept. 3, 1942.

The worker must still have at least 5 years work during the 10 year period ending when he became disabled. Since this change in the dis ability provisions of the law is still relatively new, Mrs. Daly invites workers who think they may qualify to contact the Winchester Social Security Office which is located/ at 20 S. Cameron St. If you wish to telephone, the number is 667-1511. “Violations of the Social Security Act will be vigorously prosecuted," Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, District Manager of the Social Security Administration warned today. Mrs. Daly said she had learned that Marie Adams, Hamilton, Ohio, formerly of Garrard, Clay County, Kentucky was sentenced in Federal District Court, London, Kentucky on April 4 on charges of violating the Social Security Act. Mrs. Adams entered a plea of guilty to two counts of concealing her remarriage in order to receive Social Security widow’s benefits to which she was not entitled. Mrs. Daly pointed out that all persons receiving Social Security benefits have obligations to report timely and correctly certain events which effect the payment to which they are entitled. "The conviction of Mrs. | A da ms should serve as a warning to all persons," she J said, “that fraudulently concealing facts so as to cause i Social Security payments to be made to persons not en; titled to them is a serious matter which can result in a !fine or imprisonment, or both "Any suspected irregularities of this nature are ! quickly and fully investigated by the Social Security Administration,” Mrs. Daly added,-*- ed,-* the Want Ads!
