Section S. BENEFITS. (a) Pay

payable from the fund. All bene-
fits shall be paid through employ

such regulations as the commission

individual who is totally unemploy-
ed (aS defined in section 2 (m)
in any week shall be paid, with re-
spect to such week, benefits (com-
puted to the next highest multiple
of 20 cents at the rate of so per
centum of his full-time weekly
wages, but not more than $500 per
week, nor less than either $500 or
three-fourths of such full-time
weekly wage whichever is the lesser.
Co Weekly Benefit for Partial

dividual who is partially unemploy-
ed Gas defined in section 2 (k) } in
any week shall be paid with respect
to such week a partial benefit. Such
partial benefit shall be an amount
equal to the difference between his
weekly benefit amount Gas defined
in Section 2 (Q) } and five-sixths
Of his wages for such week. If
such partial benefit for any week
equals less than $500, it shall not
be payable unless and until the ac-
cumulated total of such partial
benefits with respect to weeks oc-
curing within the preceding Is
weeks equal $500 or more. Where
an employee is furnished part-time

intervals the total amount of COM
pensation to which he shall be en-
titled hereunder for any period of
four consecutive weeks shall not ex-
coed an amount which, when added
to his wages earned during that
period. will equal eight dollars more
than four times his weekly benefit
amount as defined in section 2 (q).
I'd Determination of Full-time
Weekly Wage. Cd The full-time
weekly wage of any individual
means the weekly wages that such
individual would receive if he were
employed at the most recent wage
rate earned by him in employment
by an employer in his base period
and for the customary scheduled
full-time wage prevailing for his
occupation in the enterprise which
he last earned wages in employ
ment by an employer during his
base period.
CD If the commission finds that
the full-time weekly wage, as above
defined, would be unreasonable or
arbitrary or not readily determin-
able with respect to any individual,
the full-time weekly wage of such
individual shall be deemed to be
thirteenth of his total weekly
wages in employment by employers
in that quarter in which such total
wages were highest in his base
period.
(e) The maximum total amount
of benefits payable to any eligible
employee during any benefit year
shall not exceed one-siXth Of his
total wages earned in employment
by an employer during his base
period or 16 times his weekly bene-
fit amount, whichever is the lesser.
The commission shall maintain
separate account for each individual
who subsequent to January l, 1887,
earns wages in employment by an
employer. After the expiration of
each calendar quarter, the commits
sion shall credit each such account
with one-sixth of such wages earned
by such individual during such
quarter, or $500, whichever is the
lesser. Benefits paid to an eligible
individual shall be charged against
amounts which have been credited
to his account on the basis of wages
earned in employment by an en-
ployer during his base period and
which have not previously been
charged hereunder, in the same
chronological order as such wages
were earned.
Cd Benefits in Seasonal and Ir-
regular Employment. Cd Whenever
in any industry or class of occupa-
ton in any industry it is customary
to operate only during a regularly
recurring period or periods of less
than one year in length, then the
rights to benefits shall apply only
to the longest seasonal period or
periods which are customary in
such industry or class of employ
ment. 1t shall be the duty of the
commission prior to January /, 1888,
and thereafter from time to time,
to ascertain and determine, or re-
determine, such seasonal period or
periods for each such seasonal en-
has determined such season, it shall
also fix the right to benefits and
the conditions required for the pay
ment of benefits to unemployed
persons in such industry or class of
occupation and shall modify the
requirements of the right to benefits
and the conditions required for the
payment of benefits in such manner,
that the total benefits paid to such
persons will be in reasonable pro-
portion to the total contributions
to the fund of employers in such
occupation or industry on account
of such seasonal employees.
CD The commission shall also,
prior to January l, 1888, and from
