“Over 10 per cent of the persons
who filed social security retire-
ment or survivors claims through
this office last month lost benefits
due to a mistaken idea that social
security is relief or charity and
thought they had to be in need to
get it," R. R. Tuley, Jr., manager
of the Waco social security office,
reported this week.
Tuley explained that Social
security retirement and survivors
checks are not charity in any sense
of the word. They represent the
end result of the security the
worker and his employer bought
and paid for in the American
tradition.
“Faith in his ability to take care
of himself and not be beholden to
anyone,” he said, “has always
been a proud part of an Ameri-
can’s heritage.”
However, he pointed out that
experience has long, shown there
are some situations which are too
big to be successfully met by an
individual. To meet these prob-
lems, self respecting citizens have,
since the beginning of our coun-
try, banded themselves together
by insurance, mutual aid groups
and other methods. In numbers
there is strength, and the strength
of the group protects the weak-
ness of its individual members.
“Social security,” Tuley con-
cluded, “is a national application
of the same principles which we
have traditionally associated with
smaller groups. The worker, as
he pays his part of the social
security tax, is taking care of his
own and his family’s security and
insuring that he and his family
will have at least a .basic financial
security when death or old age
cuts off the family income.

Baylor Stadium
Site Is Chosen
An all day meeting of Baylor
University’s Stadium Committee
recently resulted in the purchase
of a 100-acre plot of ground in
Waco's west suburbs for the site
of Baylor’s proposed new stadium.
The site cost f 101,318. Negotia-
tions are now underway for select-
ing an architect.
Plans for the new stadium re-
sulted from crowded conditions at
Baylor football games last season
in Waco’s Municipal stadium which
seats 20,000. The new Baylor
stadium will seat 40,000. A prev-
ious plan had called for construc-
tion of the new stadium at the
site of Municipal Stadium, the
Cotton Palace Fair Grounds. But
the advantages of better.garking
facilities, and possible difficulty of
construction caused by a geological
fault in the Cotton Palace Grounds
resulted in the change in plans.
