Herc is what happened to old
age and survivors insurance ln
Pike county on August 38th,
when President Truman signed
the 1950 amendments to tho social security act.
All monthly Insurance checks
now being paid lo the 105 social security beneficiaries in Piko
county will bc raised substantially, beginning with the September checks, according to John
R. Chatficld, manager of the
Portsmouth Social Security Office. Hc explained that these ou-
. tomatlc increases, for September, arc scheduled to reach local
beneficiaries during thc first
week in October. Increases will
range trom about 50 pcr ccnt
to about 100 pcr ccnt. For example, lhc average primary benefit of approximately $26 per
month tor a retired worker a ill
bc increased to about $46. A
widow with 'two chiidrcn who
had been receiving $55 a month
wlll now received about $110
altogether.
Mr. Chatficld said that under
the old terms of the social security law thc 105 beneficiaries
in this county would havc received about $1,710 tor the
month of September. Undcr the
new increases,., however, total
payments for September arc estimated to bc about $3,451, or
on Immediate Increase ot somc
$1,721 monthly ln Insurance-benefits to this area.
A very important aspocl of
thc new legislation Is thc morc
hb-T.il qualifying conditions.
Mr. ChaUtcld pointed out that
ccny Individual now age 63 or
snore who has at least six-"quarters of coverage" may bc immediately eligible for monthly
benefit payments. It has been.
estimated that a considerable
number of old people ln this
arcs may qualify tor Insurance
payments under this clause. Tbe
social security office ln Portsmouth has been reviewing rec-
ords for several weeks to screen
as many as possible of the_w
persons who havc formerly
made Inquiry, onck will send
letters notifying th«*% that benefits may now be Jiyable If
thc claim Is renewed*
