Social Security
Information
At least three million self-employed 
Americans now are fully insured
under the Social Security Act, it
was stated today by Joe W. Eanes,
manager of the Memphis office of
the Social Security Administration.
Many retired workers, or families of
self-employed people who have,
died, are already receiving, cash
monthly payments.
"All self-employed persons, in order 
to be certain that they are credited 
with enough coverage to be
fully insured, should make certain
that they file a complete and correct 
report of their self-employment
income for 1952 at the time they
file their income tax returns," Mr.
Eanes said.
The Social Security Act provides
that any person who has net income 
from self-employment of at
least $400 in a taxable year be credited 
with four calendar quarters of
coverage. Ah individual who has
eight such quarters of coverage is
fully insured through June 1955.
This means, Mr. Eanes pointed out,
that both the worker and his family
may become entitled to benefits in
case he reaches retirement, or his
survivors may become entitled in
case of his death, during this period.
Each self-employed person who
made a report of his income for
1951, and is required to make one for
1952, will be credited with eight
quarters of coverage," he said.
Mr. Eanes emphasized that each

self-employed person should make
sure that he files a complete report
of his self-employment income, if it
is over $400 for the taxable year.
This must be done if no other tax is
to be paid. Care should be taken to
make sure the description of the
trade or business is an accurate one,
he stated.
Each self-employed person must
show his social security number on
his tax return if he is to be given
credit, Eanes continued. If he does
not have a number, or if he has lost
it, he should file application for a
social security card with the nearest
social security office at once.

CANNED AIRCRAFT
The Air Force and Air Material
Command are canning aircraft engines 
and clothing for overseas

use. The world's largest cans are
made of 11 × 12 gauge, low carbon,
hot-rolled steel plates, and are opened 
with wrenches; not can openers. 
Humidity, the big bugaboo to
engine shipment, is overcome by
use of dessiccants placed inside the
cans before closing. After the two
halves are bolted together, dehydrated 
air is pumped In through a
special valve.
