Lump Sum Death
Payments Made To
Survivors Under S. S. 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.

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.
