Cites European Examples.
We have studied the unemployment
acts in Europe. While we cannot hope
to introduce a European system here
and expect 1t to succeed, there are
trends of the European system we can
not overlook
One is that the unemployment insur-
ance act, which began as the British
act based on sound principles for
group of responsibly unemployed, pres
emily, under abnormal conditions of de-
preston. became system financed from
the national treasury. While it is rela-
lively easy in democratic communities
to increase contributions from the pub
lie treasury, it is extraordinarily difficult
If not impossible to cut them down.
Take voluntary unemployment insur-
ance. Labor believes it sound business
practice and part of the responsibility
of management to set aside reserves in
good times to provide against bad times
we Ieel JnLS principle SnOulQ prevail IN
industrial activity and embrace employ
ment fluctuations.
we believe this should come through
cooperative action and understanding
between organized workers and aSsoci-
ated industries, and through a volQn-
tary scheme. 1t should come about be-
cause business leaders realize the in
herent soundness of the plan and know
its costs are borne by the ultimate con-
Sumer
Already notable experiments have
been made in this field, both by indi-
vidual plants on their own initiative,
and in certain cases jointly with repre-
sentatives of the trade unions.
Neither employers nor workers can
solve the job alone. The will of the
people must make itself felt in behalf
of these plans, which, while preserving
the essential integrity of American in
dustrial experience, bring to bear on
the problem Of unemployment-of dis
tribution-the same skill and engineer
ing ingenuity brought to the problem
of production.

WebSterS Dictionary defines dole" as
a distribution; especially of gifts to
charity and in our day it certainly

ability of some to- help themselves.
Against CompuIsion.
It is because of d fear compulsory
unemployment insurance in the United
States might eventually take en- the
features of the 6obe; as in Europe, that
there is valid objection to it by labor.
Voluntary unemployment insurance is
another matter. Labor sees IN it, If
workers interests iare properly safe
guarded, means to lessen distress IN
a measure.
Labor opposed compulsory unemploy-
ment insurance because it believes in
dustrial operations should be so ordered
and budgeted that every person willing
and anxious to work can find opportun-

ables the wage Garner who goes from

Labor likewise has miSgivings as to

that sets up working plan without
adding enormously to our bureaucracy.
We have not unbounded confidence in
the capacity of our people to maintain
such an enterprise without its falling

The genesis of unemployment insurance ex
tension to unskilled and unorganized workers Of
the privileges provided by trade unions through
out-of-work benefits. Such benefits have been
practice of many of our trade unions for half
century. In short, unemployment insurance pro-

relief for those out OF work in bad times.
Unemployment insurance is divided into COM
pulsory and voluntary forms The first may be
paid through a national scheme or through local
municipal government. 1t may be paid either
a contributcry basis or by assessment on the
entire industry. The essence of the compulsory
scheme is that every employer must insure his
