Workers Need Not
Retire At Age 65
It U not necessary to retire from
work at the age of 65 in order to receive
a lump sum payment under the
Federal Old-Age Insurance program
W. H. Moore, manager of the Social
Security Hoard's Bureau of Old Ago
Insurance Field office in Hock Hill, S.
emphasizes.
"In my contacts with business and
industrial workers in Kershaw county
and adjoining Tour counties served
by my office, 1 liavo found that there
is a general belief among the majority
of them that when they reach age
65 they will be compelled to retire
from work to receive a lump-sum benefit
payment," Mr. Moore said.
"Under the present terms of the
Social Security act, a worker retires
from covered employment in order to
-rrrcffre tne monthly retirement benetlts
which will bo paid beginning In
l'J42. However, the lump-sum cash
payments arc paid now to workers
who reach age 65, and who have worked,
since 1936, in an employment covered
by the act."
The lump-sum payments amount to
3 12 per cent of wages the worker
has received during the covered period.
Every assistance Is being given
claimants, without charge, at the Social
Security board office which is
located ut Hock Hill. S. C.

FATHER OF QUINTS SEEKS
PROBE OF THEIR FINANCES
#
Ottawa, April 22.? (Canadian Press)
?Oliva Dionne, the Callander fannerfather
of the quintuplets, is trying to
get a Judicial Investigation of the way
their lives and finances are being managed
by their guardians.
An Ottawa lawyer, Henri St. Juc(jues,
announced lust night he had
been retained by Dionne and had sent
the request for a judicial Investigation
to Attorney Genera) Conan of Ontario.
This presented the possibility the
amazing story of the quintuplets'
birth, their fight for life, and their
story book accumulation of a fortune
of $750,000 made in movies and advertising
would be told for the tlrst
time in a law court.
St. Jacques said his purpose was
to lea^n If the fortune were being dissipated.
It has been estimated that $2,000
is spent each month in keeping up
the nursery where Annette, Yvonne.
Cecile, Marie and Emile live 100 yards
from the modest Dionne farm home
where they were born May 2S, 1034.
This includes the $200 a month salary
of Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe, one of
the guardians and the physician who
brought them Into the world, $100 a
month to their parents, and salaries
to teachers, nurses, housekeepers and
guards, and nursery expenses.
The quintuplets also have a bus![
ness manager and a secretary-treasury
of the guardianship, William Flannery.
An act of the Ontario legislature
March 15, 1935, made the little girls
wards of the king until their eighteenth
birthday.
Dionne is said to feel that the need
of the guardianship has passed,
though he would not object to some
form of government supervision of
their^Jj^pj^ness affairs.
J. H. Osborne is on a business trip
to New Orleans.
Highway Accidents
Increase in March
Continued increase during March la
deaths resulting from motor vehicle I
accidents is shown in the monthly accident
summary issued today by the
traffic engineering division of the *
state highway department.
Forty-nine deuths were reported for ;
the state as a whole, 34 of which
were Incurred on state highways, in- "j
(Heating a 45 per cent increase in fR.
talities for the entire state,, and a 48
per cent Increase on state roads.
A total of 226 accidents were reported
to the division under the compulsory
accident reporting provision
of the highway safety acts
"Although this Is an Increase over
iac a'j'd ncciuenrs reported in Feb* 1
ruary, it does not necessarily mean s
that the trend Is upward, as motorl&ts are
complying more completely each
month with the safety acts," said Wilbur
S. Smith, traffic engineer.
That accidents during March, 1938, \
were much more severe In character
than those during the same month of
1937, Is clearly evinced ly the sum- \
niary. In those on sta'e highways
this year, 34 people were killed in 28
fatal accidents, as compared with the
Marc.., I9u7, record c: 23 deaths in
21 fatal accidents.
Twenty-four per cent of the total
accidents reported on state highways
involved trucks, with a higher percentage,
31, ol trucks in fatal accidents.
Kleven of the 49 people killed were
pedestrians. Accidents involving col
lisions between two or more vehicles
accounted for twenty of the fatalities,
collisions with fixed obpects for eleven,
collision of an automobile with a ]
bicycle one. with a railroad .train one,
with an animal-drawn vehicle two.
Forty-one drivers involved in accidents
had been drinking, eight in fa- '
tal accidents.
_?Niiia-.-per?cant?of-?att?vehicles-la-?
volved in accidents were reported defective.
Fifty-one per cent of the accidents
occurred during hours of daylight,
but only 49 per cent of the fatal accidents,
proving the greater hazard of
night driving.
Two hundred sixty-seven persons
were reported injured, of whom 167 >
were males, 100 females. Seventyseven
injuries were classed as serious,
190 as slight.
Great Britain has refused to fo low?the
"good neighbor" policy of *he
United States in recognizing Mexico's ;
right to expropriate the $400,000,000
foreign oil industry. In formal repre- ;
sentations. the British government j
branded the expropriation as a "denial
of justice" and demanded a
prompt return of British owned properties
taken over by President Lazaro
Cardenas on March 18.
