ment Benefits.
BIZ United Press

By united Press
ROCHESTER, N. Y, Feb. 49,
Unemployment benefit COR insur-
ance) plan was announced today by
fourteen Rochester manufacturing
and utility companies on a schedule
permitting payments to unemployed
employees on or after Jan. /, 1888.
Companies which adopted the

pany, Davenport Machine Tool

featuring Company. Sargent &
Greenleaf, Inc. Other companies
have the plan under favorable con-
sideration.
OcC ASlue FER Gent
These companies employ $4,000
persons in normal times.
Under the Rochester unemploy-
ment benefit plan, each company
will accumulate its unemployment
benefit fund by setting aside up to
2 per cent of its pay roll annually,
dependent upon its experience and
degree Of sterilization, until the
fund reaches a maximum equal to
five annual appropriations.
In normal years the entire ex-
pense would be borne by the COM
pany. There would be no con-
tributions from employees except
that, under the plan, the companies
reserve the right to declare an
emergency on period of extended
unemployment.
Benefit Periods Vary
During the emer yency, the fund
would be supplemented by contribu-
tons of l per cent from all officials
and employees not receiving bene-
fits, the company to contribute dur
ing the period an extra amount
equal to that received from such
employees.
All employees with service of one
year and over and receiving less

receive unemployment benefits. The
benefits will be so per cent of the
normal pay with a maximum of
$3.50 week, the period of benefits

ment.

GRAIN MARKET
MOVES uneven
IN LIGHT DEALS
Bearish Weather Report Is
Disappointing Factor
at Liverpool.

81 United Press
CHICAGO, Feb. l6-DeferEed de-
liveries of wheat we're abovt steady
on the Board of Trade today in a
light. uncertain trade. Firmness at
Liverpool was Offset by the gov
ernment's weekly weather report
which was rather bearish though
affirming the belief that more
moisture was urgently needed over
a goodly part of the belt, particu-
larly the Ohio region and Kansas
and Nebraska. Corn was steady to
easy on some profit taking and the
prediction of warmer weather. Oats
we're somewhat firm.
Undertone Weak
At the opening old wheat was Il
cent higher, new wheat was Is cent
lower, corn was unchanged to Il
cent lower and oats were unchanged
to Is cent higher. Provisions were
steady, but had a weak undertone.
Buenos, Aires reopened today after
a two-day holiday, but prices were
unchanged from Saturday during
the morning. Liverpool started
higher, but the advance has
checked demand and the market
fell back TO unchanged to Il cent
lower at mid-afternoon. While there
is more interest in wheat it is ex-
pressing itself as bearish. However.
there is almost a complete lack of
a desire to press the market The
domestic situation is bearish, with
the foreign outlook better, suggest
ing that European supplies are low
for this time of year, and an i'm
port demand will probably be per-
sistent. Uncertainty over the win
ter wheat, owing to the weather, is
a factor in withholding selling.
Offerings Light
The cash corn demand was much
better Tuesday and prices were
higher, country offerings being
light. Users of corn are filling their
requirements now while the weather
is favorable for movement. Fur
ther strength in the cash market
would be encouraging for pur-
chases of the futures.
A large line of May oats was sold
out Tuesday and the current deliv-
cry was weak as result. Trade in
the deferred months is mixed with
no feature Of note.
