About Social Security.... Before any benefits can be paid on a person's Social Se curity record, that worker must have enough credit for work cov ered by Social Security to be insured, John Fullerton, Social Security representative in Cen tral Oregon said today. The amount of credit needed varies with the age of the person and the kind of benefits to be paid. Basically, a person needs credit for one year of work for each four years since 1950, or since the year the person turned 21, whichever is later. Using this rule, a person reaching 62 in 1979 would need credit for seven years of work covered by Social Security to be eligible for retirement benefits. A person who has this much credit is said to be fully insured. Eventually, ten years of at age 28 or younger. work under Social Security cov Under a special rule, bene ered employment will be needed fits can be paid to the children of for retirement benefits.

Washington State Siezes Liquor For Second Time (NINA)-For the second time in less than a month. Washington State Liquor Control Board agents have seized liquor bound for Indian reservations. The shipment of liquor was on its way to the Muckleshoot Indian Reservaton, but was stop ped at the Seattle Terminal of Consolidated Freightlines. The control board said some one had leaked information that the 645 cases of liquor was at the terminal. Earlier this month, liquor going to the Tulalip Reservation was seized by state agents, but a federal judge ordered that the liquor be returned. Federal Judge Donald Vorhees ordered the state to return the liquor until ^t"' 'M' a test case in court is decided. Judge Vorhees ruled that the state cannot stop interstate com merce. The liquor control board has said that they will harass the Indians until there is an injunc tion against them or until a deci sion is made whether Indians can sell untaxed liquor on reser vations. Muckleshoot Representative Tim Sheldon says that they have all their papers in order to get back the liquor. He said since it is a holiday season, they expect to get a truck load of liquor a day. Indian tribes in western Washington are selling liquor to supplement needed monies for reservation social services.
