Notes
HENRY PERRY, ONE OF
3917 — BUT BARELY
There were 3,917 people in Fan-
nin County receiving social secur-
ity benefits at the close of 1964.
Payments amounting to almost
$2 4* miHktft were paid to these
people in 1964. This month Henry
Perry, Rt. 1, Honey Grove, was
added to this list — but he just
barely made it.
Social security records are con-
fidential but Mr. Perry waffled
Report From Austin
By Rep. James D. Cole
Those of us who had looked for-
ward to debate on major issues by
now, such as congressional and
legislative redistricting, the appro-
priations bill, teacher pay raise,
and assistance and medical care
for the aged and incapacitated,
were disappointed by the deadlock
in legislative business during the
past week.
I refer to the Senate constitu-
tional amendment which
would raise the membership in the
Senate to 39 members and provide
a 6 year term for Senators instead
of the present 4 year tefm.
Previously we had passed a con-
stitutional amendment for 4 year
terms for state officials elected
statewide, such as Governor, Lt.
Governor, Attorney General,
Treasurer, and others.
It hardly seems consistent to
most House members to vote for a
constitutional amendment which
would give all elected officials four
to six years in office except House
members., leaving the term of of-
fice for members of the House of
Representatives at two years.
Therefore, the House amended
the proposal to also allow House
members four year terms.
This amended constitutional
amendment went to a conference
committee. The House-Senate con-
ference committee could not agree
on this measure.
Neither side would budge.
This issue has slowed down the
legislative business on issues that
are more ifhportant than the length
of terms.
***
The conference committee on
Appropriations has reported that
their report will he coming out of
committee soon. We expect the bill
to be on our desks for considera
tion by next week.

Governor Frank B. Morrison of
Nebraska addressed a joint session
of both Houses last Thursday on
the advantages of the unicameral
legislature.
Nebraska has had a one-house-
legislature for the past twenty-
eight years. Membership was
increased from 43 to 49 members
last year when the term of office
was changed from 2 to 4 years.
Members were elected on a non-
partisan ballot which makes for
running state business more on a
business-like basis.
•**
Governor Morrison stated that
since the Supreme Court has or-
dered redistricting, 24 different
states have sent representatives to
Nebraska to study the Nebraska
legislature and observe unicameral
legislative process.
Among advantages of the single
chamber legislature are lower costs
the avoidance of duplication of ef-
fort, and the simplification of law
making procedure which results in
a better understanding of legisla-
tive process by the people.
Rep. Will Smith of Beaumont is
introducing a bill which would pro-
vide for the unicameral system for
Texas.
NOTICE OF
To
Appropriate
State of
No. 2390
Notice U hereby given to whom
concerned that the application of
JOHN SCHULZ, the poet-office
address of whom Is Route 3, Honey
Grove, Texas, was received on the
15th day of March, 1965, In the
office of the Texas 'Water Com-
mission. Applicant seeks a permit
to appropriate 26 acre-feet of
water annually for the Irrigation
of 25 acres of land i™. of a ISO
acre tract tii Fannin County, Tex-
as, located In the G. F. Sage Sur-
vey, A-1000 and in the I. C. Wil-
liamson Survey, A-1167, all being
more fully described In said appll
others to konw more about their
social security and avoid the un-
certainlty he endured. Here’s his
story. ......—
In February 1965, he contacted
John Bynum, social security repre-
sentative, about his social security.
Although over age 62, he had giv-
en little thought about social se-
curity because he had never paid
anything. He told Mr. Bynum he
had farmed all his life -and had
never made enough to report. He
was informed that farmers were
rather unique becaugi' they can
pay on social security even if they
have a loss on the farm. This is
called the“option’’ and is especially
important to small fanners. Here's
how it works. If you have a very
low net profit--or even a loss —
in any year, you can still get social
security credit if you have farm
income (gross) of 3600 or more.
Although Mr. Pony had never
filed a tax return, h* advised
to check all old records and see if
he ha(f‘$600 farm Income in any
year. He checked his records and
found that he had well over 3600
in each year 1961 through 1964.
He filed delinquent tax returns
presented good records, paid the
tax and received enough credits to
entitle him to monthly social se-
curity payments.
Since he has a daughter under
age 18, the entire family receives
a monthly social security check.
To make his story even better, he
received a check for f486 for back
payments.
Yes, Mr. Perry almost missed
his social security and he wants
everyone to know about his-story
so that possibly they won’t haye
the same doubts and tears about
their social security. He advipes
everyone (especially farmers with
low incomes) to check social secur-
ity. He advises everyone (espec-
ially farmers with low Incomes) to
check their social security records
often and to contact their social se-
curity office if they have any ques-
tions.
Yes, Mr. Perry's story is a hap-
py one now. ■*
