of legislation establishing unem-
ployment insurance, but 1t pro-
poses. through President Green of

be fixed wholly by a s per cent
tax on pay rolls. Opposing any d.
rect levy on the workers. Mr.. Green
says they would pay most of the
cost any way. Employers add their
cost to prices and employees buy
SIS per cent of all goods, he ar
gued. If workers shared the direct
cost of insurance, he adds. they
would be paying twice.
