OREGON GROUP TAKES KNOCK. OUT PUNCH AT DEPRESSION.

If anyone doubts the old saying that, ''aod helps those who heip themseves, he can find a living ex- ample of it's truth in a little colony on the lillamook bay out on the Oregon coast, according to Cappel,s N eekiy.
 1As little cooperative enterprise Is the result of woman's idea. Mrs. Louise Smith reasoned tlas even though the depression seemed to nave gotten the best of them there still must De some way open to support themselves withoae ask ing lor relief. The ioea she devel- oped ws.s to go the seashore and make Ciie ocean produce living for them.
 Besides her own, four other families and six single men, wage earners, living in the lnrerior Of the state, all on the verge of qessltution, agreed to go in on the proposed yen.ure and move to Tillamook bay. They took all their belongings in an oio car a..d a truck. The group had less than $.U in cash between them.
 AL Dayocean, small seassae re- sort, they found an old abandoned hotei building. They obtained the privilige of occupying it in censid-
 ta.hsI a1 4k5ng some repairs. Part of the group was set to work to make the place habitable, the rest began to catch fish, crabs and and clans. They soon had plenty of sea food for themselves and a surplus to sell. Then the house. wives began to prepare their catch, especially crab meat, cooking 1t Tn various ways, also canning clans, reaay for the table. That brought extra profits.
 Their surplus of sea foods that couldn't be sold was bartered for other needs-fruits and vegetables, groceries, dairy and poultry pro- ducts and even gasoline. Next a deal was made with a woollen mill l at Salem to trade crab meat and l clans to it's employees for woolen cloth which a seamstress in the l colony is making into clothing. Not long after that deal was closed for the old hotel building and 1 payments are being made on it Soon the Artisans Cooperative
 community, as the colony has named itself hopes to have it's own home the objective all are now working
 for. They have had a good living thru this first summer, plus the joy
 and satisfaction that comes from
 being self-supporting. The future 1 is one of the rosy prospects.
 | There is nothing spectacula,
 about the achievements of this little l group of victims of the depression Too many are willing to throw LII their hands and become dependent.

Talsotna, Alaska, December 15, 1884.

While some plan of unemployment insurance seems certain to be enacted in the coming session of congress, it would be unfortunate if extravagant hopes were entertained regarding precisely just what such a plan could do. Some are evidently under the strange impression that it would provide substitute for relief. It would do Scientifically" they seem to believe, what relief payments now haphazardly and wastefully.
 Such hopes rest upon a misconcep- tion of what unemployment insur- ance is. No plan can bring money out of the sky; properly managed insurance plan can pay out only has been paid in. One consequence Is that no matter how promptly an insurance plan is adopted-and if 1t is ultimately to depend on enact ments in the individual States that may meaak al least year or. two-a 1t would require a period of ten months or longer from the date of enactment before the plan could be- gin to pay out benefits. It would first of all have to build up reserves. Benefits could be paid up only to persons employed at the time that the plan went into effect or sub- sequently. And they could not be paid out indefinitely even to them. In England no worker is entitled to unemployment benefits for more than twenty-six weeks in a year; under the recent plan adopted in Wisconsin, the maximum duration of benefits for any one worker is only ten weeks year. Some limitation of this sort is necessary to keep the fund solvent.
 An unemployment insurance plan, therefore, could do nothing to relieve the present unemployed. It would be useful only in relieving future unemployment, and even that would be strictly limited. Not until the British had distinctly separated their relief payments from their insurance payments did their insur- ance plan become self-supporting.
 No matter how scientific" the unemployment insurance plan adopt ed by Congress or the States, it would in no way solve or mitigate the immediate problem of relief. There is no way in which relief can be made scientific" or not burden some. It can and should, however, be made relatively non-political and less wasteful.- New York Times.
