FIÓK HÍREI A VERHOVAY IFJÚSÁGI SPORTCSAPATOK SZÉP GYŐZELMEI F. é. augusztus 7-én zaj­lott le az a MAGYAR NAP, amelyet Chicago város char­ter-jubileumának emlékeze­tére rendeztek a chicagói ma­gyarok. — A Magyar Nap valóban fényesen sikerült. — Műsorának első pontja volt két fiatal sport alakulatnak: a Verhovay 96. oszt. sport­­csapatjának a Burnsidei At­létikai Club football-csapatá­­vál váló mérkőzése. Ez már délután 2 órakor kezdő­dött a Grant Parkban a 9'ik utcánál és vagy 3—4000 lé­lek, (főként amerikai) volt a nézője, akik lelkesen busz­tolták az egyenruhás fiatal magyar csapatokat. A fél­beszakított gém 7 - 2 arányá­ban a Verhovay csapat javá­ra dőlt el. Az ünnepség keretein be­lül számos chicagói magyar miivész működött közre, kü­lönböző ének, tánc, zene és szavalatszámok tarki tot ták a műsort. Itt kell megemlítenünk, hogy a Yerhovayak Baseball Csapata sem marad a foot­ball csapat mögött. Az el­múlt vasárnap a West Puli' mann-parkban volt a csapat­nak szép mérkőzése a Kor­­zenieckv lengyel csapattal. A teamben a Verhovay csa­patból Kiszella Géza tűnt ki brilliáns játékával, riielynek az eredménye az volt, hogy a Verhovay csapat 5 * 4 a­­rányban leverte a sokkal e­­rősebb Korzeniecky csapa­tot. — Küszöbön áll a szep­tember. — A derék magyar Verhovay sportfiuk hirt, di­csőséget akarnak szerezni is­mét a Verhovay névnek. Chicago és környéki tagtár­saink ne feledkezzenek meg róluk. Szeretettel támo­gassák, biztassák, drukkolja­nak értök. Mc Kees Rocks, Pa. 163-ik fiók A fentnevezett fiók veze­tősége ez utón nagy öröm­mel hozza tudomására a fiók közgyűlésének ama határo­zatát, mely szerint a fiók kö­telékébe tartozó Tagtársak f. é. szeptemberi havidijait elengedi, illetve helyettök azokat befizeti és beküldi a központnak. Ez a szép ked­vezmény kiterjed azon uj tagokra is, akik a fióknak 1937 szeptember 12-én tar­tandó gyűlésén felvételre je­lentkeznek és egy havi dij helyet 2 havi dij lesz javukra ;r\a. , JAKAB MIHÁLY, titkár 4124 Race Street WINDBER, PA. 33-ik fiók A fiók titkára ez utón kéri tagtársait; hogy a rendts havi gyűléseken okvetlenül jelenjenek meg s havi dijai­kat személyesen adják át ne­ki, mert gyermekektől ezen­túl nem fogad el befizetése­ket.

VERHOVAY LAPOK SZERKESZTŐSÉGE ♦--------------------------------V GOVERNMENT OLD AGE PENSIONS By—S. A. Oscar, Secretary, National Mutual Benefit WE CAN NOT hope to compete with the govern­ment in old age security (1) because there is no choice for the person not in an ex­empted class (2) the contrib­utor pays only half of the cost. Don’t condemn or criti­cize the act. Government old age security is here to Stay. It is an honest at­tempt to meet a problem and don’t forget that it is a prob" lem. If you 'know statistics on old age dependency pro­jected into the future you w ill agree that something must be done. We can say without prejudice, however, that so far as old age securi­ty is concerned, the plan for the average man is woefully inadequate. To build a real social security program, the sum available on retirement should be sufficient to pro­vide somewhat near the standard of living to which one is accustomed for the family, as well as the annuit­ant, and here is where life in­surance comes in. Under the act, if you quit working at age 65, you get a pension. It is not a grat­uity because both you and your employer have contrib­uted to the fund. Life in­surance can augment this old age annuity. A person age 25 starting January 1st this year and working until he reaches age 65 — with an average salary of $100 a month — will have earned $48,000. He will have paid in $1,278 as a tax. If death occurs before 65, the insur­ance is always 3r/% of the total earnings on which a tax has been paid. If he lives to age 65 and then dies, the death benefit is the same, 3^% or $1,680. If he reach­es age 65 and quits work, his pension is $51.25 per month and continues as long as he lives. If he should die ap­proximately two and a half years after starting on his old age payment, there would be no death benefit because the monthly install­ments which he entered up­on at age 65 is deducted from the amount payable as his death benefit, so within three years, he would have no life insurance and there would be no further annui­ties paid to his family. The plan is an ideal one for the pensioner if he can live a long time after he reaches age 65 or die exactly at the age because then the ins*«*­­ance is at its peak. If. how­ever, he dies within a few years after going on the pen­sion, there is nothing either in the way of further annui­ties or insurance for the family-. If this same man had an average salary of $250 a month, at age 65 — if he quit work — he would retire on a payment of $81.25. If lie died at that time his insur­ance would he $4,200. Af­ter he entered on his month­ly payments at 65, in ap­proximately four and a half years, his life insurance would be gone because he has received it in monthly installments. If he died at age 71, he would have nei­ther life insurance nor would his family have any further annuities. These cases are not cited at all in criticism of the gov­ernment plan. I mention them merely to show how necessary it is for the people who come under it to add to it with insurance. I believe it will be a distinct aid in making people annuity or life insurance conscious not only among those covered but the vast number not now included as well. Questions About Govern­ment Plan Here are some of the ques­tions that come in our cor­respondence that we should answer carefully and truth­fully : Is the government pen­sion plan compulsory? Yes, unless you are in one of the exempted classes. What does my insurance amount to? It is 3^2 % of your earnings on which you have paid tax. Will my insurance be paid to my beneficiary upon my death? Yes, unless you have passed age 65 and you have drawn enough to dis­sipate it. You know that every time you draw an an­nuity, your insurance is re­duced by that amount. Will you give me an ex­ample of how much insur­ance I would have at a given age? Very well, you were 30 years of age on January 1, 1941 — four years after you started to pay — you die. In that period you have earned $7,200 and have paid in $81. Your insurance at that time is $252. Just as a means of comparison, this sum expended fór life insur­ance would have paid for $1.000. Can I do anything with my insurance before age 65? Neither before or after age 65 can you do anything with your insurance. Can I surrender it? No. Can I borrow on it? No. assign it? No. Change it? No. Can I increase my contribution so as to in­crease my insurance? No, Can I get any benefits from it, should I become disabled? No. Can I do these things with an insurance policy? Yes. Don’t gather from what I have said that I am in any sense criticizing the govern­ment social security pro­gram. Half of our people now will be compelled to carry it and I imagine other groups will be included. However, old age compen­sation under any plan pro­vided by the government can never be more than a moderate sum and even those who come under its provisions need life insur­ance. If we understand the plan and its operation, it should help and not inter­fere with our business. BRANCH 366 Cleveland, Ohio.
