Warns Disabled On Security Benefits Make Application Before June 30 Disabled people who may have some social security benefits rights may lose all their rights if they have not applied for full protection by June 30, C. H. W. Luecke, manager of the district social security office, said today. Luecke explained that disabled people, besides being so disabled that they are not expected to be able to do any kind of substantial work for a long and indefinite period, must have worked under social security for a certain length of time before they can have the protection of social security disability insurance. They must have worked at least five out of the ten years before their disability began and must have worked at least one and a half years out of the three years just before the disability began. 1 If they make their application bj’ June 30, the social security administration can go back to the actual date of their disability and count years of work back from there. If they wait until after June 30, they must have worked for five years out of a ten year period ending no earlier than one year before they make application. Luecke urged that any disabled person who thinks he might be entitled to the disability protection of the social security law contact his office personally’ or by mail or phone before June 30, so that he can be sure that all of his rights under social security will be fully protected. The Name Sticks BOSTON — (IP) — Superior Judge Felix Forte presided at the million-dollar Brinks robbery trial a couple of years ago.
