CUT RRTE;DRUG STORE- ;; 1212 Main St. Phone 610 4 Benefits More For Aged In New Formula Ninety percent more people than usual applied for old-age in surance payments through the Greenwood field office in July, according to Miss Martha Pressly, manager. Miss Pressly credits the sharp rise to the fact that a number of people now applying for .old-age insurance have completed, a year and a half of work after 1950. This, she explains, makes it pos sible for them to have their bene fits figured under the new form ula which can be used only when a person has one and a half years of covered work after 1950. In most cases, the use of this form ula gives a higher monthly bene fit to a retired worker than would be possible if his earnings before 1951 w r ere used * in figuring his average monthly wage. Miss Pressly anticipates a fur ther increase in the number of 65-year old applicants because of a new provision in the law which permits those w r ho retire this year to have recent wages used immediately in figuring the amount of their benefit payments. If they have one and a half years of work covered by the law after 1950, it is no longer necessary for those retiring in 1952 to come back six months later in order to have such wages included in the computation of their bene fit amount. Another provision of the amend ed law. Miss Pressly points out, is of special importance to self- employed people over 65 who -re tired or who plan to retire this year. Before the passage of the amendments their earnings for the year in which the application was filed could not be used to figure their old-age benefit pay ments. Now, a self-employed per son who applies for and receives old-age benefits this year may reapply after the close of his taxable year and have his 1952 earnings used in refiguring his monthly benefit payments. Sim ilarly, the survivors of a self-em ployed person who dies in 1952 may ask to have the 1952 earn ings included in refiguring their monthly benefits. In general, this will mean that benefits payable on the account of a self-employed person who retires this year will be larger than as originally com puted, Miss Pressly says. Another new provision in the law is important to beneficiaries who have continued working after reaching age 75. If they have had a year and a half of work covered by the law after 1950, their benefits can be refigured under the new formula, Miss Pressly says. PROF. AND MRS.

Adlai s Record Not Unblemished The magazine “The Freeman” in its issue of June 2, 1952, in an article on the life and career of Adlai Stevenson said: “According to Stevenson’s rec ord in Illinois, scandals would flourish if he were Chief Execu tive of this nation. “Here are the major Illinois scandals revealed durjng the past year—and not one of them was disclosed by the man billed to the nation as the fearless and efficient foe of wrongdoing; Deed Transfers Newberry No. 1 E.

In August 1949 the Chicago police informed the state that the counterfeiting was going on, probably with tax-stamp machines which were known to have been stolen. Stevenson put a special prosecutor to work on the swindle last June, nearly two years later. It was a full-scale operation by the crime syndicate. “2. Sales of horsemeat as beef became a new lush racket for the syndicate during the Stevenson regime. It was exposed by the Of fice of Price Stabilization because of the violation of price regula tions, not because of the health hazards, which posed a graver public problem. Bribery of state employees included, by * his con fession, Stevenson’s superintend ent of foods and dairies. The in dicted superintendent is from Stevenson’s home county of Lake, where the Governor in 1949 tried but failed to make him the Demo crat county chairman. “3. The West Frankfort mine disaster just befor^ Christmas, which killed 119 men, was laid officially to failure of state inspec tion.” Chicago newspapers have been critical of Stevenson’s record as Governor. One of them said: “Blots on the Stevenson’s Ad ministration record include the Governor’s deposition that Alger WOMEN’S SOCIETY TO MEET MONDAY The Woman's Society of Chris tian Service of Central Methodist Church will meet Monday even ing, August 18th at eight o’clock in the Mary Frances Wright Me morial Building. Circles Num bers 1 and 2 will be the hostesses for this meeting.
