Many persons in this area

social security benefits may
receive a part or all of
their social security benefits
Miss Martha Pressly, manager
of the Greenwood social
security office said today.
Anyone earning$1500 or less
in a year may receive his bene
fits for all months. Those earn
ing more than $1500 in a year
may receive some of their
benefits. For example—a per
son entitled to benefits of $100
per month can earn $2500 in a
year and still receive $700 in
social security benefits.
Regardless of total earnings
in a year, benefits may be
paid for any month in which
earned wages are not more
than $125 and no substantial
services are performed in self-
employment.
