INSURANCE ON
SANINGS UPPED
Federal insurance coverage on
savings accounts up to $10,000 is
now provided by local loaning
agencies.
Institutions affected have their
accounts insured by the Federal
Savings and Loan Insurance
Corporation. The previous maxi
mum insurance coverage had
been on accounts less than $5,-
000.
The higher coverage follows
the signing into law by Presi-
dent Truman of legislation bo
osting insurance protection for
associations with savings ac
counts insured with the FSLIC.
The associations will bear the
entire cost of the new pro
tection for their customers, and
the new law affords them an op
portunity of securing a further
safeguard for the funds of their
savers.
The increased insurance cover
age applies equally to all ac
counts held by an individual, tw r o
persons with right of survivor
ship, trusteeships, partnerships,
and corporations.
Across the country last year,
nearly $11,000,000 was paid by
savings associations in premi
ums to the FSLIC.
As of June 30, 1950, there
were insured savings associations
all over the country with total
savings of the public of $10,754,-
000,000. This amount represents
about 80 percent of all savings
held by these institutions, both
insured and uninsured.

APPEAL IN BEHALF s
THE HANDICAPPED |
The appeal to emply the
physically handicapped should
not be considered an emotional
one. It is really sound business,
because ability and not disability
counts on a job; and business,
and labor surveys show that •. %
the handicapped worker is Just JyjM
as productive and dependable as
the nonhandicapped in his work .
habits and attendance record. : j'
Although efforts are constantly
made to place applicants by the
South Carolina Employment Ser
vice in positions for which they
are suited, a particular effort v *
will be made next week to place
the handicapped applicants , now
registered with the employment
office in Newberry, in jobs dur- %
ing “National Employ the Physi
cally Handicapped Week,” ac
cording to Pearce C. Davis, Act
ing Manager of the local employ
ment office.
Many employers throughout
the nation are giving inc
recognition to the competegMil
physically Impaired w o r k e r a
when properly selected and
ed on suitable jobs. The
perience of employers with
workers has demonstrated
their job performance
compare favorably with those

productive efficiency,
rates and absenteeism.
Similarly, A many employers
becoming increasingly alert
the important contril
which older workers are
and can make to our
productive effort.
There still remains, how<
s sizeable reservoir of
able manpower among the
capped and older workers
is not being fully uitilized.
All employers are v
therefore, to lend their si
to the fullest extent
