Mr. and Mrs. Denman Moody,

Tuffy Whitehead of Del Rio and
Cam Hightower of Austin. Denny
Moody and Jim Allison have re-
cently been notified that they have
been awarded the Verner Moore
Lewis scholarship at Austin Col-
lege in Sherman and the young
men plan to enroll there this fall.
The scholarship is based on high
Christian principles, scholarship
and athletics.
“A little at 84.00 a week in cash
earnings entitle» a household em-
ployee to sotial security coverage,”
according to John D. Palmer, Dis-
trict Manager of the San Antonio
social security office.
This group includes such do-
mestics as maids, baby sitters,
cooks, gardners, laundresses and
chauffers.
Minimum wages of $50.00 paid
by the same employer in the cal-
endar quarter entitles the employee
to social security coverage and must
be reported. A calendar quarter is
a 3-month period beginning Jan-
uary 1, April 1, July 1, and Oct-
ober 1 of any year.
The social security tax rate for
I960 is 6%—3% to he withheld
from the employee's salary and 3%
paid by the employer. The social
security report must he filed with
the Director of Internal Revenue
by the last day of the month fol-
lowing the end of each quarter. It
must show the employee's social
security account number, name and
the amount of ca-h wages paid
during the quarter.
A simplified report form design-
ed specifically for reporting do-
I mestic employees is available from
the Director of Internal Revenue,
i Austin, Texas. Also available is an
| informational pamphlet, (JASI-21,
j front the Social Security \dinini--
tration, 309 Dwyer Avenue, San
Antonio 5, Texas, which cover-
reporting requirements on house-
hold employees. Reporting of this
group is not on an optional basis,
;t is included in the law.
No detailed bookkeeping is re-
quired. The fact that a household
worker is al-o reported by another
employer makes no difference in re-
porting responsibility. Remember
that proper reporting will help
make retirement benefits possible
for your domestic employee.
"One death a year in a discard-
ed icebox or refrigerator is one
too many!”
With that thought in mind, J. O.
Musirk. general maangtr of the
Texas Safety Association, warns
against discarding cabinets — pre-
servers of food when in the kitchen,
hut so often di -troyers of young

the public’s increased awareness of
the problem, is an especially need-
less form of accidental death,”
Musick said.
Nearly 50 million refrigerators,
iceboxes, freezers and other air-
tight cabinets are in use today.
And they’re being carted to junk
piles—or, worse yet, kept in the
basement as an extra cabinet, or
left in the back yard,— at a rate of
about a million a year.
Typical of the tragedies was the
suffocation of two boys 5 and 3
years of age. They crawled into
a refrigerator and pulled the door
but, locking themselves inside.
Mr. Brown, Chairman of the Ed-
wards County Savings Bonds Com-
mittee. said today in commenting
on the one-half per cent increase
in interest rates on old and new
Series E and H Savings Bonds.
