Manager, Columbus Robert O’Neal, District Manager of the Columbus Social Security Office, said they are frequently ask ed how much work a person must have to be able to receive benefits. The answer to the question cannot tie given until you answer a quest ion. The question you must answer first is when did you or when will you reach retirement age? Retire ment age is 65 for men and 62 for women. If you were retirement age in 1956 or before, you would only need 6 quarters of coverage to be insured and eligible for benefits. That is the very minimum any per son can have and still receive bene fits. A person who attained retire ment age in 1957 would need 8 quarters of coverage to be eligible for benefits. The number of quart ers of credit needed are increased each year elapsing until you attain retirement age. If you reach retire ment age in 1961 you need 13 quar ters of coverage to be eligible for benefits, and if you reach retire ment age in 1981 or later you will need 40 quarters of coverage. The examples given do not ans wer the question for everyone, but if you have a question about how much credit you will need you can get the answer by contacting the District Office at 301 - 15th Street in Columbus, or by contacting the representative of that office who will be at the Court Room in Butler o nApril 4, 1961, at 1:00 p. m. The representative will be at the City Hall in Reynolds on April 18, 1961 at 1:00 p. m.

Eubanks Reynolds, Rt. 1 Atlanta, Ga. — Cotton farmers in 134 of Georgia’s counties will pay less for their crop-hail insurance in 1961 than they did in 1960 un der rates approved today by In surance Commissioner Zack Cra vey. These rates remain unchanged in 17 counties and are slightly ad vanced in eight counties. Expressing keen disappointment over the new crop-hail tobacco rate schedule, Cornu.i^sioner Cravey has requested the Ga. Rating Bu reau to review its experience in this field thoroughly with the view of further reductions. The 1961 schedule provides the same rate last year in all except 11 counties. Rates on shade grown Sumarta tobacco, apples, peaches, pears and tomatoes stay unchanged. Crafty noted a considerable drop in rates on corn, oats, rice, wheat and a number of other crops.
