security are the same to self-
employed as they are to em-
ployees, although the tax is
only 2 1-4 p^r cent while the
employee pays 1 Mt per cent
and his employer also pays lVi
per cent, making a total of 3
per cent of the wages up to
$3,600.00.
Minimum benefit for those
who qualify undter the law is
$20.00 per month at the age of
65. Maximum benefit is $80.00
per month for those who pay
on $3,600.00 annually.
The wife of the insured is
entitled to one-half of the
amount the retired husband
receives, when she becomes 65
years of age.
Since it is compulsory for
business men to pay their SS

nually with their income tax
report, it is advisable that they
make their application for a
social security card now, so
that they will have it when
they make their tax return
and can give their number. In
this way they will get credit
for their tax.

SHORTAGE 3N COIN
The following is a letter received from the Federal ReJerve Bank of
Dallas, Texas, which is self explanatory:
“The Treasury Department has informed us of the extreme difficulty the
United States Mints are experiencing in meeting unprecedented demands
throughout the Nation for coins of all denominations. Despite an accelerated
work program by the Mints, our supply of some denominations is very
limited.
“We understand that the production of coin in the immediate future will
be restricted by curtailment in the copper supply allotted to the Mints by the
National Production Authority, as well as by possible delays in deliveries
occasioned by the current unsettlement in the industry. These developments
point to the probability that for the time being the Treasury still will he
unable to supply coins to the Reserve Banks in normal quantities.
“We shall appreciate it, if you will bring to the attention of your custom-
ers the reasons for the coin shortage and solicit their cooperation in returning
to circulation all coin in excess of their reasonable needs.
“It will be helpful in dealing with this situation if your bank will ship
to us or our branches at El Paso, Houston, and San Antonio from time to time
at our expense, any excess accumulation of coin.”
In keeping with our policy to serve our nation and community, we shall
be happy to have you bring in for deposit or exchange into currency any
excess coins you might have and we shall ship them to the Federal Reserve
Bank.
