80W
§ Mr. GREENWOODFollowing is the answer:
§ Mr. GREENWOODMrs. Taylor's case has been fully investigated, but I regret to say that she cannot be granted an old age pension under the Contributory Pensions Act because she was not an insured person at the time she attained age 65. Mrs. Taylor was last employed in May, 1922, and it has not been established that the reason for her unemployment since that date was either inability to obtain employment or incapacity for work through illness.
