Saturday, June 29, in addition
to its normal week day sched
ule. W. V. Nusbaum, district
manager, said today.
Nusbaum said the special Sat
urday schedule of office hours

erely disabled people who may
be eligible for social security
protection.
This will be the only Saturday

which serves Jackson and Jose
phine counties will be open for
business.
Apply Before June 30
Nusbaum pointed out that
people who have been disabled
and unable to work for a long
time must apply before June 30
for disability benefits or to
have their earnings records
"frozen." Otherwise, they may,
in some cases, lose their right;
to disability payments and also
their own and their family's
rights to old-age and survivors
insurance payments, he said.
Any severely disabled person
who has worked under social
security for at least five years
and has been disabled for six
months or more should get in
touch with the Medford district
office right away as soon as
possible. If the person is be
tween 50 and 65, he may hi
eligible for monthly disability
payments. If he is under 50, he
may be eligible to protect his
future right to disability pay
ments as well as the rights of
himself and his family to old
age and survivors payments.
Record Frozen
"To get social security dis
ability insurance benefits at age
50 or over, or to have your soc
ial security record frozen," Nus
baum said, "you must have soc
ial security credit for at least
five years of work in the 10
years before you became dis
abled. At least a year and a
half of that credit must be for
work during the three years
just before your disability be
gan. "In addition, you must have
a disability which, in the words
of the law, makes you unable to
engage in any substantial gain
ful activity. It must be the kind
of physical or mental condition
which will show up in a medical
examination or tests, and it
must have lasted for at least six
months and be expected to con
tinue for a long and indefinite
time," he said.
