Illinois Approves
 Unemployment Law
Every State in Union Joins Movement to Protect Job. less Citizens-Rapid Extension of Plan Sets Record

Every state and territory in the United States now has an unem- ployment insurance law that con- forms with the social security act. This became Q fact today when the social security board approved the last state law, that of Illinois.
 The board estimates that nearly twenty-one million workers are In employments covered by the Sl ap- proved unemployment insurance laws which provide compensation to employees who lose their jobs through no fault of their own, the amount Of compensation and the length of time for which 1t is given varying in different states.
 Great Progress
 Commenting on this fact. Arthur J. Altmeyer. chairman of the board, said: Greater progress has been made in the enactment of unem- ployment insurance laws in the past two years than has been made in workmen'S compensation (for acci- dental injury) in the past quarter century. The rapid extension of unemployment insurance has been due very largely to the elimination, under the social security act, of the fear of unfair competition as between employers in state with no such law and those in state having such law.
 while even the most ardent pro- ponentS Of the social security pro- gram hardly expected that every state and territory would enact an
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-07-21

unemployment insurance law which conformed to oil the requirements of the social security act within the first two years of the life of the act, many problems are yet to be solved in the field of unemployment insur. ance before we can be satisfied that the workers of this country have adequate protection. For example, most states exempt small employers
 from their unemployment insur- ance provisions, and also exclude the occupations, such aS domestic service and agricultural labor, not covered by the present federal act. No one questions the need for pro- tectiono among these excluded groups, but there are serious ad- ministrative difaculties which would be encountered if we attempted to provide all-inclusive coverage ct the outset of this new program. No country in the world has tried to establish all-inclusive coverage:
 wider coverage has in every case grown slowly over Q period of years. The problems involved in this coun- try are even greater than in other countries. It is unfair to expect that the United States should start at Q level reached elsewhere only after long administrative expe- rience. To make this attempt would be to run the risk of bringing the entire system into .disrepute because of administrative failures. The state authorities administering un- employment insurance have turned
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-07-21

to serve the needs of the American pub- lie. The railroads, for instance, maintain their own "highways"-a quarter million miles of steel. Last year the two million freight cars on American railroads trav- eled more than nineteen billion miles. This job is done so skillfully, so econom- ically, that the railroads are able to haul ton of freight mile at an average cost to the shipper of less than one cent.
 It is not surprising that delegations from all over the world travel to the United States to inspect our railroads, study them, and learn from them. You may wonder why the American railroads have shown such marvellous rate of de- velopment as compared with other coun- tries. The answer is the same as 1t is in the case of other American industries. So long as ability and ambition are free to go ahead and to reap the earned rewards of public patronage, rapid industrial prog ress is sure to follow. Under these condi- tions our railroads can promise brilliant future.
 Every business needs the public's friendship. It can win this in part by being friendly with the people whom it serves. But friendship must grow out of understanding, and understanding must be based on information. For this reason, the railroads are now using advertising l. .l. A.. the many things they do and the way they do them.
 It is great and inspiring story, of a business which is resolutely working out it's own recovery by the time-tested prin- ciples of self-reliance and hard work. UAdAra kinn of AnnArioa

H=NOE Americans have restless HO9AkIsM spirit. We want action. We ad- lONSN8 mire people who get things
 sssll done. We're never content with things as they are. We're always demand ing something better; we welcome every improvement.
 It is this spirit that has made America the gerat country it is, conquerlng the wilderness, annihilating distance, welding the forty-eight states together, making the whole United States a market for products of the farm and range, the mill and factory.
 Every one knows the part that the rail- roads played in the early development of the country Not all of us realize the vital part the railroads still play today. In the past six years, for example, when the whole world was suffering from hard times, the railroads stepped out with new equipment, faster schedules, greater com fort, better service to passengers and shippers, and with it all greater measure of safety. They gave more for the money "a tested principle of American business. We all benefit from faster and more eff cient freight service. Millions of people now enjoy the comfort and cleanliness of riding in air-conditioned cars.
 These are only high points. More than a thousand men are busy on railroad re- search, developing new safety equipment, better signal apparatus, more efficient brakes, and countless other devices and processes ranging all the way from water softening to the melting of snow.
 Railroading is vast operation because 1t takes a gigantic transportation system

 Federal Aid
 "It Is gratifying to the board to know that within the first two years of It's existence every state has, of it's own initiative, come into position where 1t can both co- operate with the federal social se- curity program and take full ad- vantage of the opportunities offered the states in the federal program. As 0 result of the boards approval of the unemployment insurance law of 48 states and three territories the federal government will pay all proper expenses of the states in the administration of these laws. Fur thermore, the two million employers affected by these laws will be en- abled to save up to % per cent of the federal pay roll tax on employ CTS of eight or more under the So- cial security act because they may deduct from this federal tax the amount of their contribution to their respective states unemploy. ment insurance fundes to the ex- tent of 90 per cent of the federal tax. Approval of oil these state laws by the social security board means, therefore that 90 per cent of the employers pay roll tax un- der this part of the act will re- main in the states for use exclu- sively in the payment of unemploy- ment insurance benefits to workers who become unemployed for reasons beyond their control.
 Unemployment
 Tt would be c mistake to aS- sume, however, that the problem of unemployment insurance is now settled in this country. The ma. jor portion of our work is still be. fore us. Today, one state-Wis. consin-is paying benefits to eligible unemployed workers. Twenty-nine more states begin these paymnets next year, with the rest following in 1899.
