A. Skinner, manager of the Olympia office of the Social Se' curlty Administration. Both the number of beneficiaries and the amount of the payments have been growing steadily since the first payments in 1940. Last year's growth was produced prin- cipally by the increase in the older population and the higher earnings levels that are used in computing the benefits, rather than the pro- gram changes that brought dra- matic increases in some past years, according to Skinner. DESPITE THE large number of people receiving these payments in Mason County, there are some individuals who could get the pay- ments if they would apply for them. For those whose lack of knowledge of the law has prevent- ed their getting social security benefits which they are entitled to, Sldnner urged a visit to his office. In reporting on the current ben- efit situation, Skinner also pointed out that the year 1965 marks sev- eral milestones in the history of social security. The January, 1965 benefit payment represented the 300th month of suca payments. The number of monthly benefits will reach the 20 million mark within the next several weeks. Finally, August is the 30th anni- versary of the signing of the or- iginal Social Security Act by Pres- ident Franklin D. Roosevelt. trier in the Matlock area.

Here NEW YORK (Special) -- A re- port just released by the U.S. Pub- lic Health Service, revealing a 9.7 percent increase in cancer deaths in the United States in a period of four years, draws attention to the situation in Mason County. Interest in the report is height- cried further by the fact that April has been designated "Cancer Con- trol Month." The findings are based on data gathered by the PHS from every county in the nation. Listed is the nmnber of cancer cases of each type, including lung cancer, oc- curring in each conmmnity. Among residents of Mason County, the cancer mortality rate in the year ending Jan. 1, 1964, was somewhat higher than in most sections of the country, it appears. Locally, ther~ were 29 such deaths, not counting those of nan- residents. It amounted to a rate of 169 cancer deaths per 100,000 popula- tion. By way of comparison, the national rate was 150 per 100,- 000. The rate in Washington was 141. Lung cancer, because of the cig- mette issue has been receiving more attention than other forms of tim disease. Nationally, it accounted for 16 percent of all cancer deaths. Lo- cally, it was responsible for 13.8 percent of them. Had it not been for this branch of the disease, which registered a 26 percent rise in the United States in the four-year period, the cancer picture as a whole would appear in a more favorable light. EVEN SO, th~ez'e have been gains, according to the National ttealth Education Committee. It reports that more people than ever before are going for regu- lar medical checkups and that, as a result, many cases are being de- tected early and cured. It claims that a fourth of those wire died of cancer could have been saved had there been a time- ly diagnosis and proper treatment given. Significant progress has also been made by medical research teams, despite insufficient funds available for their work. The committee states that only $]54 million a year is provided for cancer research as compared with $482 million spent in the United States for greeting cards and $347 million for chewing gum. Men are often capable of great- er things than they perform. They are sent into the world with bills of credit, and seldom draw r.o their full extent. --Horace Walpole Students Return From Easter Vacation To Start Final Quarter Of The School Year By Cindy Willard Shelton High'School students enjoyed a vacation during the Eas- ter holidays.
