PAYMENT OF PARTIAL
BENEFITS

New procedures for the payment
of partial benefits under the State
unemployment compensation law
have been adopted by the Maryland
Unemployment Compensation Board,
it was announced by s. C. Cromwell,
Dierctor Unemployment Compensa-
ton Division.
The State law provides for pay
ment of partial benefits for workers
whose hours and pay are cut when
work is slack, but the Maryland
Unemployment Compensation Board
believes that many workers entitled
to such benefits have not been
claiming them--probably for the rea-
son that they did not understand
their rights in the matter.
Under the new procedures, work.
ers will be reminded that they may
be entitled to partial benefits when
they are on short time for lack of
work, and to make this reminder
possible, the State will require en-
ployers to take some responsibility
in the matter, Mr.. Cromwell says.
Hereafter, it Is announced, en-
ployers will be required to notify
each worker, who is on short time
for lack of work, that he may be
entitled to partial unemployment
benefits. The employer must also
furnish to the worker, for the first
week of the short-time period, a
statement of that workers earnings
as evidence of his claim to partial
unemployment benefits. This the
worker will present when he files
his claim.
All workers are urged, however,
to keep themselves posted, and when
they think they are entitled to
benefits, consult the nearest State
employment Office if they have not
received notice after the first week
or two.
This is particularly important for
workers who have more than one
employer in a short space of time.
Such observation-disclosures, for
example, some building trades work.
men, some walters and Mattresses
cannot be notified individually, the
Board points out, because no one
employer could tell whether they
were busy full time or not. Such
workers may be entitled to benefits
when they work less than full time,
but since no way has been found to
notify them individually, the Board
urges them to make the first move
themselves by consulting the nearest
State employment Office when they
are on short time for lack Of work.

GAsLESs SUNDAYS in THE
OFFING

Rigid restrictions on the use
of oil, including the "gasless
Sundays, have been suggested by a
committee of the petroleum indus
try, in the face of an acute shortage
expected by July /.
In a report to Secretary Ickes, De-
Tense Petroleum Coordinater, the Oil
men pledged their support ito any

emergency, and thus ward off men,

town, throughout the wide world
we see revolving conditions that, to
anyone brought up in the tradition
of Americas way of life, are to be
Stunned even more than war, are
infinitely worse than death.
Adding that war certainly was to
be avoided at all reasonable costs,
the Governor voiced his opinion
that 1t was infinitely preferable,
however, to peace of degradation
and enslavement, to life without the
rights and privileges that we in
America have enjoyed as possibly
no other nation in the world ever
enjoyed.

Governor O'Conor continued, would

FAMOUS DETECTIVE OF BOOK, SCREEN

American Petroleum Institute at the
request of the Office of Production
Management, suggested that temp
eratures of homes heated by oil
could be lowered during winter. A
general reduction, of five degrees
throughout the nation, it added,
would effect ten per cent saving in
fuel
Also, the report added, many fur
naces now using oil might be con-
verified to coal.
ANY restriction that may be ne
cessary by reason of national de-
Tense should be shared equitably by
the entire Western Hemisphere, or
at least by all of the United States,

should not carry the full burden, but
that the entire nation should enter

DEMOCRACY AN ATTITUDE BIAS.
ED ON RESPECT FOR
MANKIND

Making a plea to educational
leaders that "in the organization of
the schools we practise the Demo-
cratic principles we profess, Gov
ernor Herbert R. O'Conor told the
graduates of State Teachers College
at Salisbury, Md, on June 2, that
I'm the final analysis, democracy is
spirit, an attitude toward other
human beings which is based on a
respect for human personality and a
belief in human intelligence. When
school administration is infused with
this spirit, it will find expression i'm
school practice. Without it, no
amount of organizational machinery
will avail.
