Social Security participation rises in Comanche County
Reports Analyst notes 180 Comanche residents checked Social Security rights in the July to September quarter. Of these, 43 filed claims for benefits under old age, survivors, or disability provisions. District manager urges all over 62 who have not consulted a representative to plan to, unless already receiving checks or never earned covered wages. Changes in 1961 broadened eligibility for those employed past 62 and some denied workers may now qualify. Carnes Brothers, Pat and Pete, major cotton raisers in Comanche area, report another strong crop though not as large as last year. Pat Carnes cites reduced hand picking due to new international labor restrictions affecting Mexican labor.
