The first actual checks will be issued near the end of January, according to Mr, VanGeyt. In Washington, Social Security! —

eralize” benefits of the act and in-| clude more than 1,000,000 workers] not previously covered by its provisions, General requirements for those] to receive benefits beginning Jan. 1, are: A worker must be 65 and retired; he must have been employed in work covered by the pension system for six calendar quarters after 1936; in each of these quarters his covered wages must have been at least $50.

May Continue Work

If a worker, upon reaching 65,

cannot fulfill these work requirements, he can continue to work and file his claim after acquiring suffi-: cient wage credits. Likewise, if a worker does not wish to stop work at 65 he can continue and file his claim when he does retire. The formula for calculating monthly benefits is that the insured worker receives as a basic payment 40 per cent of the first $50 of his! average monthly earnings in cov-, ered employment, plus 10 per cent of his average wage over $50 and up to $250 a month. He also receives an additional 1 per cent for each vear in which he has earned at least $200 in covered employment. An example—A man has received an average monthly wage of $100! since the beginning of 1937 and retires at the age of 65 at the beginning of 1940. What would his monthly benefit amount to?

Here's How It Works

He would receive $25.75 a month— 40 per cent .of $50, or $20; plus 10 per cent of the remaining $50, or $5;

of 32,285,176 trees. Of these 10,265976 were evergreens and 22,019,219 were hard-|
