Strikers May Lose
Unemployment
Compensation

|
for misconduct, a labor dispute in
the establishment, or refusal OF suit |
able employment are grounds for ex-
tention of the waiting period or COM
plete disqualification from unem-
ployment compensation in all states,
a survey of state unemployment
compensation laws by the Social Sc
curity Board reveals.
Definitions of misconduct and
suitable employment + left to the
state administrative board as is the
| option between extension of the
waiting period or complete disquali-
fication.
These provisions, according to ex-
perts in social security, give to the
state extensive power in strikes and
discharges for union activities. Ac-
cording to the opinions of the adj
ministrative bodies, workers who go
out on strike may be deprived of I'M
employment compensation benefits
or compelled to wait extraordinary
periods of time before receiving
benefits for which they have paid.
Strikes are specifically provided
for in all Is states with %unemploy-
ment compensation laws included in
the survey. In New York and Rhode
Island, the law provides that the
waiting period shall be ten weeks
before the employee begins receiv-
ing benefits. In the others, striking
employees receive no benefits.
In most states, the pooled-fund
type of unemployment compensation
is used. This method provides for a
pooling of all contributions in a
single undivided fund from which
benefits are paid to eligible en-
ployees regardless of their former
employers.
Most states provide for the exemp-
ton Of employers of less than eight
workers though five exempt only
employers of four or less while the
District of Columbia and Idaho laws
) apply to employers of one or more.
Merit rating systems apply in Il
states, giving to the employer who
stabilizes employment a reduction ir
rates. All states provide that bene.
fits paid shall be so per cent of the
wages, up to SIS a week, while the
District of Columbia provides for AZ
S per cent Of the wages plus 10 pei
' cent for a dependent husband or wife
and another 5 per cent for each de.
pendent relative with a maximum 0.
IS per cent.

more nourishment. Finally Cornaro
gave in and for IL days lived on in
creased rations, with the result that
he became very i'll. To cure him
self, Cornaro returned to his old
regimen. At the age of ninety-five
he recorded that his sleep and appe-
tite were good, his judgment sound,
and that he was strong and healthy.
At the age of 102 he died, 81 years
after he had been consigned to the
grave according to popular fallacles.
Cornaro did not have the knowl-
edge of food that biochemistry has
given to us, nor could he profit, as
we can, from the experimentation
of doctors who have devoted their
careers to solving the relation of
food to health, but he had the basic
knowledge of good health-modera-
tion-and he observed it in all
things.
This story of Cornaro should serve
as inspiration to all those who are
sick and ailing, as well as to those
who are enjoying good health for
the present, but especially do | COM
mend it to those who have resigned
themselves to supposedly "%incurable"
ailments for which medicines have
not proved e%fficacious.

PASSING IT ON"

Leading steel executives have an
nounced that they have no intention
Of absorbing the wage rise. They
have explained that the higher
operating cost must be passed on to
the consumer"
This sentence from the financial
section of New York Times expresses
general sentiment among capitalists
who have recently gained so much
free publicity by raising wages here
and there a 5 per cent or 10 per cent,
or by handing out a bonus for stock
lodging purposes. Their seeming
generosity is Illuminated in this
statement. Prices are passed on to
consumers who, in the last analysis,
are the working and farming masses
Of America.
Here are some evidences of the
passing it on" strategy of the manu-
facturers and professors:
Prices of staple cotton print cloths
have advanced almost 40 per cent
since last spring, according to Stand
ard Statistics Co. STANDARD Trade
and Securities, October 30, 1885,
Wooden companies have just raised
wool cloth prices from Is to q above
last springs prices. New York Her
aid Tribune, 1~0-20-36.)
General upward trend of retail
prices of department store articles is
indicated in rise of the Fairchild Re-
tail Price Index on November l to
% per cent above the level of July
this year. Daily News Record
CLIP, reporting this rise, declares
that 'mark-ups after the turn of the
year may be relatively sharp"
Meat prices will continue to rise.
A statement from U. S. Department
of Agriculture New York Herald
Tribune, 11-10) declares that general
level of livestock and meat prices
"is expected to be higher than for
several years." It reports also; 1.-THE
outlook for the next few years is for
some rise in butter prices in relation
to prices of other commodities"
American Institute of Food Distri-
button, in its Conditions in the Food
Industry Old, predicts general up
swing in food prices: Jump in sugar
following election has contributed
materially to confidence that food
prices next year will be higher.
Sugar is the central barometric in
~fluence in the thinking of the food
trades"
Percentage rise in retail price of
specific foods between October, 1882,
and October, 1886, is given in latest
release of U. S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics, covering average prices of
food in 81 cities of United States.
Here are some of the leaders which
showed the most marked increases
in this four-year period:
Potatoes 1904, lard 86.7, sliced
bacon 74.9, pork chops 64.9, navy
beans 500, wheat flour 58.9, corn
meal 57.3, butter 1870, cabbage 1853,
sliced ham 41.9, rice 1856, fresh milk
33.1, peas 30.3.
Building materials such as cement,
nails, hardware, roofing pipe cop
per sheets structural steel and other
items are expected to continue adj
vance in price over the next six
months including the next spring
building season according to Inter
national Business and Investment
Service (11-14).
All these increases in retail prices
come on top of the 20 per cent rise in
general living costs which, as we
have noted before, has occurred since
the spring of 1888.

STORY OF 50BRIETY
AND THE MIRACLE
OF BEING TEMPERATE
BY MILDRED

Fifteenth century Italy: poverty in
dirt-ridden slums, on the one hand;
a staggering, licentious, voluptuous
nobility on the other, and into this
world of the upper-crust Louis Cor
naro was born in 1864. True to ira
dition, he lived riotously: ~overeating
and overindulging in every vice that
colorful, teeming world afforded. But
at the age of forty his resistance col
lapsed and Cornaro found himself
dying of chronic ailments for which
his doctors could offer no aid.
There are those who r content
to resign themselves to a seemingly
inevitable fate, and there are those
who set out to defy such fate, to
prove that mar can be its master.
Exercising his native intelligence and
recouping his will-power, Cornaro
essayed to cure himself and the
course he chose to pursue was di-
rectly opposed to the ways that had
led to disease. The most important
| step was to reduce his food intake,
which he set at a figure of IL ounces
per day.
After a year of temperate living,
Cornaro felt fully recovered. At this
point the ordinary person would be
satisfied to resume the former ways
of life, especially where food is con-
cerned. He would be tortured by
visions of those palatable morsels he
had renowned and his will-power
would waver before the temptation.
| But not so Cornaro. Until the end
of his days he continued along the
abstemious path, and what is more,
the once selfish pleasure-lover be-
came a humanitarian, interested in
welfare and upbuilding his native
Venice. But it is his literary work,
"La Vita Sobria" (The Moderate
Life which has come down to us.
This volume he started at the age
of 83 and at 95 wrote: "In conclusion,
l wish to say that, since old age is
as, in truth, it is-filled and over
flowing with so many graces and
blessings, and since | am one of the
number who enjoy them, l cannot
fail-not wishing to be wanting in
charity-to give testimony to the
fact, and to fully certify to all men
that my enjoyment is much greater
than l a now express in writing
| declare that | have no other mo-
tive for writing but my hope that
the knowledge of so great a blessing
as my old age has proved to be, will
induce every human being to deter
mine to adopt this praiseworthy, or
derby and temperate life, in favor OF
which l ceaselessly keep repeating
Live, live, that you may become
better servants of Godl"
An incident worthy of mention oc-
Cured when Cornaro was 70 years
old, 80 years after he had started
his restricted diet. Despite the fact
that he had changed death into life
despite the fact that he was in ex-
cellent health and spirits, despite the
fact that he was living evidence OF
the essential correctness of his
theory, his relatives and physicians
began a ceaseless plague of admoni-
tons that he eat and drink more
Of you ever try to feed your child

ment for children, you will under
