Socal Security Numbers Self-employed persons should apply now for their social security account number, urged Carl J. Nees, manager of the Wausau social security field offi ce. Although self-employed persons are not required to report their 1951 earnings until they file their income tax returns early in 1952, every self-employed person who does not have a social security account number card should apply for one now to be certain he has the number when the tax report is made.
Applications for account niumbers can be secured from the local port office, or be contacting the Wausau social security office, located at 408 Third street.
A new booklet, entitled Do You Work for Yourself ?, which gives a complete explanation of the new social security law applying to the self-employed, can be had at no cost by writing to, or calling at, the Social Security Administration field office at Wausau.
Inflammable Sweaters Itinerant peddlers have been touring the country selling sweaters of highly inflammable material, to both men and ladies. A check at the city hall at Wausau indicated nearly a dozen sets were sold in that building alone. When the sweaters are touched with a match they go up like celluloid.
A recent attempted sale was reported in Milwaukee, Friday.
The inflammable sweaters have turned up, so far, in New Jersey, California, Massachusettes, Maryland, Texas, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, New York, Kentucky, Ohio, Wisconsin, Rhode Island and Michigan.
