YOUR SOCIAL
SECURITY
Social security benefits paid
to residents of Newberry County
totaled $346,000 a month as 1969
ended, J. C. Bagwell, Green
wood Social Security District
manager, reported today.
A benefit increase, signed into
law by President Nixon on De
cember 30, 1969, has since
raised the monthly rate of pay
ment by 15 percent for the 4752
social security beneficiaries in
Newberry County to $397,900,
Bagwell noted.
Of the social security bene
ficiaries living in this county,
2976 are retired workers and
their dependents. Another 1084
are receiving benefits as the
survivors of workers who have
died, and 692 are getting bene
fits as disabled workers or the
dependents of disabled work
ers.
Bagwell pointed out that al
though the majority of social
security beneficiaries are older
people, about one out of every
four is under age 60.
In the State of South Carolina,
106,348 people under age 60 are
collecting social security pay
ments each month. The 59,950
who are under 18 are receiving
payments because a working
father or mother has died or is
getting social security disability
or retirement benefits.
Of the 8378 who are 18 thru’
21 years of age, most are get
ting students’ benefits under a
provision which permits the con
tinuation of a child’s benefits
past his or her 18th birthday,
and up to age 22 if he or she
is attending school full time.
But in this 18 to 22 age group,
Bagwell said, are some other
types of beneficiaries, illustrat
ing the broad family protection
that is provided working people
of all ages under the social
security program.
A number are the children of
retired, disabled, or deceased
workers who became disabled
before they reached 18 and who
will probably never be able to
go to work and become self
supporting. The benefits of these
young people, severely handi
capped by physical or mental
disabilities, will continue inde
finitely and benefits are also
payable to their mothers if the
disabled son or daughter is in
the mother’s care.
