CAMP BLANDING, Fla, Nov. l.
More than 1900 soldiers stationed
here will be released within the next
two weeks and return to civilian
life because of overage, dependen-
cies, disability and other reasons.
BY far the largest number will be
from the 3lst Dixie Division,
which will release approximately
100. Two hundred already had
been released since the division re-
turned from Louisiana maneuvers.
Only 1T are to be released from
the 43d New England Division in
addition to the 180 who have left
thus far. The 43d was not called
up for duty until several months
after the 31st.
Smaller numbers are to be re-
leased by other units stationed here,

Guiding this work experience pro-
gram is w. Day Mullinix, who spends
his mornings teaching and his after
moons checking students progress.
After graduation he tries to place
his pupils in permanent line OF
work to which they seem suited.
Some of the students are from the
academic course, but most of them
have set their eyes on a business
career and are enrolled in classes in
business English, retail selling and
economic problems of business.
Sponsors say this plan is nothing
new in the United States, but 1941
is the first year it has appeared near
Washington. The program is spOn-
sored by the Federal Government
and supervised by the Maryland
Board of Education. If it continues
to succeed in Montgomery Blair
High, it is predicted that other
schools in Montgomery County will

Unemp|oymentTax
Suuthoff Files Protest
Against Flat Reduction,
Urges Rotine System
By JOHN H. Cassidy, Jr.

Chairman McGehee of the Judici-
ary Subcommittee of the House Dis
trict Committee voiced the hope yes
terday that favorable action would
be taken by the subcommittee this
week on his bill to reduce the Dis
tricts unemployment compensation
| tax.
The Mississippi Representative
said his committee would be called
together as soon as he has de-
termined whether Social Security
Board officials wish to present testi-
mony or file a statement on the tax
reducing measure. The board had
been invited to testify at the hear
ings conducted last week. but was
unable to send a witness at that
time.
Meanwhile, Representative Saut-
hoff, Progressive, of Wisconsin, a
member of the Judiciary Subcom-
mittee. made public statements by
number of leading unemployment

now under consideration and on the
so-called experience rating system.
Opposes Flat Reduction.
Mr.. Sauthoff, a strong supporter
of the experience rating plan as
opposed to the fiat rate reduction
plan proposed in the McGehee bill,
declared that authorities ARE
unanimous in their approval of ex-
perience rating. and in their opposi-
ton to the system of fiat rates"
Those of us who favor experience
rating" he said, ARE fearful lest
this particular bill will mean the
entering wedge for a breakdown of
the present State unemployment
compensation systems throughout
the United States, and will effec-
lively tend to centraliZe all unem-
ployment insurance jurisdiction in
Federal hands; take it away from
the States and break down and de-
stroy experience rating entirely"
One of the authorities quoted by
Mr.. Sauthoff was DR.. Edwin E.
Witte, who served as executive di-
rector of the Presidents Committee
on Economic Security which formu-
lated the Social Security Act.
Sees Trial Balloon.
DR.. Witte said reductions in en-
ployer contributions should be
effected through experience rating
provisions rather than on a fiat
basis. His statement warned that
provisions for the District are likely
to become, standards for all States,
and said the District "is a trial
balloon to get Congress committed
to fiat rate reductions as against
experience rating"
During the hearings just ended,
spokesmen for the Board of Trade,
the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association and other witnesses tes-
titled that their organizations are in
favor of experience rating, but were
supporting the McGhee fiat rate
reduction plan because they believed
there is an urgent need for !mme-
diate relief from the present high
tax rate, which has built up a re-
serve fund of almost $4,000, 900.
The Board of Trade pointed out
that it supported experience rating
| legislation at the last session, but
that Congress failed to approve the
plan.

The child's mother was confined

The only plausible explanation for
