Act One of the most misunderstood things in connection with social security is the provision for a lump-sum death payment, ac cording to Miss Martha Press- ly, manager of the Greenwood social security office. A lump sum death payment is made to qualified survivors of each per son who dies and is insured un der the Social Security Act. Qualified survivors include the widow or widower, provid ed the couple was living togeth er when one of the mdied. If there is no widow or widower surviving, the person paying the funeral expense can receive the lump-sum upon submitting a re ceipted funeral bill and making proper application at a local so cial security office. All persons applying for a lump-sum, payment must com plete an application form pro vided at the office. A widow or widower who meets the living with requirement need not sub mit a funeral receipt. The amount of the lump-sum ranges from a minimum of $75.00 to a maximum of $255.00. For further information con cerning lump-sum payments and other benefits, contact the Social Security Administration field of fice located at 18 Post Office building, Greenwood. Si**,*' I \> T-< 1 ..

Zotton Tor Spot ’roblem Solved Charlottesville, Va., April 17.— Chemistry, responsible for so many new finishes for cotton and even new modified cotton fibers, is now conquering cotton’s “tar spot” problem that costs textile mills millions at dollars annual ly. A chemical method of removing tar spots from finished cotton goods has been developed at the Institute of Textile Technology here after long research and com mercial runs. Dr. Jack Compton, ITT technical director, repotted. The method, he says, consists of the proper use of a mixture of relatively simple chemicals dur ing the finishing process, the sec ret lying in the proper use of pine oil and kerosene in a quench box containing caustic. About ft5 per cent of the tar spots are removed, he adds, from print doth con struction. However, he report# also that the use of other smdpde chemicals, followed by hot water washes, can effectively achieve “dose to 95 per cent removal efficiency” in the kier or batch process. Tar spots which show up in the finished f a b r i v, have long plagued the manufacturing Indus try, and many means have been proposed to keep cotton from tar or asphaltic contamination in harvesting and in transit. .
