Information On
Social Security
For Disabled
Seriously disabled people who
used to work in employment or
self-employment covered by the
social security law should get in
। touch with the social security of
fice by June 30, 1957, Mr. O. L.
I Pope, social security district man
ager, announced today.
People who have been totally
disabled for 6 months or longer,
and who worked in employment
or self-employment covered by
the social security law for as
many as 5 years out of the 10
years before they were disabled
should get further information
about this law. Active military
service and employment in the
railroad industry may count to
ward the needed amount of work.
By applying to have their social
security earnings record frozen,
disabled people may prevent loss
or reduction of future benefits.
Some people now receiving old
age insurance payments or who
will become eligible for old age
payments in July were disabled
for long periods before they
reached age 65 and are still dis
abled. They may start getting
larger payments as of July and
will get them more promptly if
they file an application for a
“disability freeze” by June 30.
If the disabled person dies after
June 30, the disability freeze can
protect his family’s rights to sur
vivors payments but only if he
had applied for it before death.
For this reason, it is important
for every person who meets the
requirements for the “freeze” to
apply for it by June 30.
Mr. Pope emphasized that the
law protects the social rights of
a worker who is suffering from
prolonged total disability but
does not pay cash benefits to him
before he is 65.
The address of the nearest
social security office is 307 Nich
olls Street, Waycross, Ga. If. a
disabled person is unable to call
at the office, he may telephone
or someone may call for him.
