Students May Get SS Benefits The Mother's Had Tea Garden Cub To Have Sec Our Ad On Page Four Honorary Tea Thurs. In Marion county, 4,687 peo ple under 60 are reciving social security benefits. That figure breaks down into 2,453 under 18 years of age, and 1,704 be tween the ages of 22 and 59. Many students would have been unable to continue their educations were it not for the 1965 amendments to the social security act which extended survivors and dependents in surance benefits to students until their 22nd birthdays. In 1968, that provision resulted in continuing benefits for 470,000 students. Monthly payments to the family of a worker who dies leaving a widow and two or more children range fr;m $82.- 50 to $434.40 a month, depend ing on the worker’s average earnings under social security. Payments to the young family i of a worker who dies at an early age could t.tal as much as $85,000 to $100,000. Flaten also pointed out that by the end of 1968. aproximate- and over were either receiv- ly 90 percent of americans 65 ing cash benefits or would have l>een eligible for such benefits if they or their spouses had not been working.
