In handling the records of the | 42-0dd million men and women who have already applied for social see-| | urity account number, the Bureau of Old- Age Insurance has found | evidence that not'everyone has ex- ercised proper care in stating age on his .application. Probably the most' frequent reason for misstates ment has ‘been fear on the part of | some workers that-they would lose their jobs if, in, some way, their em+ ployers should leam their real age from the information given."

Many peo- ple, realizing the later difficulties | which may result from inaccurate age statements, have sent the Board further information and asked that their records be corrected.
