Sacramento’s proposed 30-foot river channel and deep sea port took a step forward last. week when it was approved by the sub-committee of the National Rivers and Harbors Congress.

EASY PROCEDURE TO COLLECT OLD AGE BENEFITS Procedure for the handling of claims for lump sums under the Federal old-age benefits plan of the So@ial Security Act is believed to. be more simple than any other plan yet devised for similar use by any government agency or private ‘business, . according to James B. Cress in charge of the San Francisco office of the 402 Humboldt Bank Building, Market street. A simple form has been devised . 785 for the use of the five different types of claimants, (1) wage earners, (2) widows or.widowers, (3) other close relatives, (4) executors or administrators, and (5) guardians er committees. Claimants will be required to file only one of these forms depending on the circumstances of a particular ease. The only supporting papers required of claimants are (1) proof of *sirth where claim is for ‘an amount in excess of $100; (2) proof of death if wage earner is deceased, and (34 proof of appointment where the apNOTICE TO CREDITORS In sthe Matter’ of the Estate of JOHN VIVIAN, Deceased: NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN by the undersigned A.

All of} _NEVADA CITY NUGGET a GOLD LAKE ROAD AIM OF SIERRA CO. BOARD The Gold Lake road project was taken up at the last meeting of the Sierra county board of supervisors and it was reported that the possibilities for the Gold Lake road project going forward are very good. Mr. Lombardi, supervisor, reported that the electric company, which owns much land in the section, .is willing to give ground for an 80 foot roadway and the U. S. bureau of public roads will assist in the financial end. The electric company did not care to concede some land on the lake shore, as some time or other, they anticipate the constuction bot a power plant there, and wish the road to cut out around the proposed site. The work will be‘delayed some because surveyors cannot get in to locate the road because of snow in the high mountains. Mr. Lombardi believes the job will be done and another great beauty spot in the.county opened to sightseers and nature lovers. Roads is the one important thing that Sierra county needs to permit tourists and sightseers to come in and see the wonders of the section. The persistent efforts for’ these improvements, put forth for many months, it now appears, are -beginning to bear fruit. Over 600,000 are in Northern California, To date only a small. portion of the persons entitled to file claims have made. application. However, it is stimated that in the United States there will be a thousand cases a day entitled o apply for lump-sum benefits. In California it is estimated this number will amount to about 1,500 per month, and in the bay region over 400 cases per month will be entitled to apply for lump-sum payments. About one-third of these payments will go to persons who have reached age 65, and the balance to the estates of workers who have died
since January 1, 1937. At tthis early date the individual claims will not be large, as the amount due is 3 1-2 per cent of the wages earned in covered employments since Januuary 1, 1937, but there will be a contiual increase in their value as the amount of wages earned since January I, 1937 grows larger.

M. Leete, park board member, Herbert Hallet, ent, with Ted Sigourney at the wheel Councilman Frank Davies, street superintenddrove to Sacramento Saturday to examine Sacramento’s method of filtering water, with a view to adopting: some plan for filtering the water in’ the municipal swimming pool. . Owing to the fact the city water supply carries a_ little sediment. even when it appears the clearest, the park board has’ for sometime been studying methods of. clearing the water so that the life guard at the pool would be enabled to see the bottom of the pool in its deepest part at any time. The board has proposed and the city council is now considering a method of using the water of Little Deer Creek at the pool, leading i+ by ditch and pipe to a sump near the present lily pond, and then lifting by a centrifugal pump to the filters, to be constructed above the «pool, running from the filters into the pool by gravity.
