DAW, ROR EMBEZZLEMENT Claims for old-age and survivors in surance may be filed after November 30, 1939', although the payment of benefits will not begin before next year, Albert S. Lewis, Manager of the Social Security Board's field office aj Waukegan announced,, last V day. The Board ha* instructed field office managers to begtn the study of claims as soon as they are filed, he said, to ensure the prompt distribution of benefits. "We already have sent letters to wage earners who reached the age of sixty-five and were paid lump-sums equal to three and one-half per cent of their total taxable wages," Mr. Lewis said. "We notified them that they may now, under amendments to the Social Security Act, be entitled to regular monthly benefits for the remainder of their lives. Many of these persons undoubtedly will be eligible for such benefits and many who have not filed claims will be able to meet the more (liberalized requirements of the revised law." The amendments do away with the stipulation that a man cannot accumulate wage credits after he is sixty-five. He may claim his benefits at sixty-five but the amendments make it possible for him to accumulate enough wage credits to entitle him and his survivors and dependents to insurance benefits regardless of his age. ^ Howard J.
