Talk To Representative July 5 Today and every day thousands thous-ands of dollars in Federal Old-Age Old-Age Insurance benefits will be lost by eligible 65-year-old workers who fail to make applications appli-cations for them. These older workers are not ready to retire, but they have been and will be out of work occasionally oc-casionally for a month or more because of illness, vacation, rest, or seasonal layoffs. Many of them do not know that the So cial Security Act provides for monthly payments to eligible 65-year-old employees (those workers who have worked the required time on jobs covered by the Social Security Act) who are temporarily out of work for any reason or who take jobs not covered by the program. Other workers are aware of the benefits bene-fits but don't know that applications appli-cations must be made at the proper time with a Social Security Secur-ity office to receive them. Applications Ap-plications are effective for but three months before the month in which they are received. Once, however, a person has made application for his benefits, bene-fits, he may receive them for, every month thereafter ' for which he is eligible.
