Went to Kentucky to visit the young

much interested in horse racing and he
insisted upon taking his fiance to a

say, "out of Late Date by Lower Ten.
There is Supreme Sweet, out of Rip

New York Unions Fight
Workers Wage Tax For
Unemployment Benefits

Albany, N. Y. QLNS).-Objection to
a proposal that workers covered by
the states unemployment iSurance law
contribute l per cent of their wages to
the fund was renewed by the three
labor members of the State Unemploy-
ment Insurance Advisory Council in a
statement issued here. The proposal
was made by the six other council
members representing industry and the
public.
The majority members of the coun-
ell have appealed to the Legislature
to approve bills for the employe CON
tributiOn plan, it being contended that
the plan is desirable as a means of
continuing the unemployment fund in
Il financially sound condition.
Charging that they had not been in
formed of the plan, the labor mem
bers attacked it as violation of
democratic procedure
Minority Ignored, Charge
"This method of ignoring those who
disagreed, and proceedings srrrepti-
tiously to the preparation and sub
mission of rump reports, is hardly in
accord with our understanding of de-
mOcracy," the statement said.
The statement was signed by Ed
ward w. Edwards, secretary of the
State Federation of Labor; ~GuStave
4. Strebel, president of the New York
State Industrial Union Council, and
Frederick +. Umhey of the Interna-
tiOnal Ladies' Garment Workers
Union, who pressed proposals which
they made when the advisory corln-
cil's first report was submitted to the
Governor and the Legislature in
March.
These proposals would liberalize the
states unemployment insurance sys-
TEN, by extending the benefit period
from IL weeks to Is weeks, extending
the maximum benefit rates from SO
to S1S Il week, reducing the waiting
period from three weeks to one week
and covering partly unemployed work
ers on the daybase plan.
The labor recommendations differ
slightly from those in two bills before
the Legislature
One of these bills would increaS Sc
the benefit period to 16 weeks. The
other bill, backed by Gov. Lehman,

HIGHER Rate Set
For War Housinq
In Cdpitdl Area
Higher Union Rate As The
Minimum Wage Recon-
mended BY Referee

Washington, D. G. ULNS).-In find
ings of national Importance to labor,
Ben Grodsky, U. s. Department Of
Labor referee, recommended the higher
union rate as the minimum wage to be
paid building workers in the Metro
poltan Washington area in building of
Government housing.
The findings of Referee GrOdSky
supported the contention of the Wash
ingtOn building and Construction
Trades Council that their wage scales
prevail here The recommendation
will he submitted to Secretary of Labor
Perkins for final decision but is eX-
pected to he approved.
"Naturally we are pleased with the
recommendations" John Locher, eNecu-
tive secretary of the Building Trades
Council, said. 1T will greatly help
the Government get its housing quick
ly. 1t was our contention all along
that the work performed by our con-
tractors was different from that of
the operative builders. We need those
houses and we will see that the men
are here to build them"
The ruling was made under the
1'acon-DaviS Act, which provides for
payment as minimum wage on Gov
ernment construction that wage which
is held to be prevailing in cOmmu-
nifty on ''prOjectS of Il character sim
liar to the general contract work"
The decision was based on the opinion
that housing projects of operative
builders (private enterpriSe) usually
comparable to Government projects
elected on contract. Operative build
erS have been paying scales consider
ably below those for work on Govern
ment contracts.

would fix the benefit period at =
weeks. Both measures would reduce
the waiting period to two weeks.
Otherwise, they carry out the recon-
mendations of the labor representa-
tiveS.
Contribution Plan Rejected
Both bills reject the proposals of
the majority of the advisory council
for the one per cent employe contri.
button.
In their statement, the labor repre-
Sentatives took issue with the ma. .ior-
ity'S contention, that employe cOntri-
buttons were necessary to place the
unemployment fund on sound finan-
cial basis to stand the strain of post
war economic reimbursement and pos
sble widespread unemployment.
They accuse the majority of ''erron-
eous assumptions which ignore com
pletely the facts which are being more
evident, that with curtailment of pri
waite building operations and all con-
sumner and durable goods industries,
the need for requirements and replen-
ishments will Immediately create Il
source of employment for those en-
gagged in war industries and those re-
turning from war service"
Because of New IOrk'S outstanding
Importance as an industrial state, pro-
posed revision of the unemployment
insurance act is being closely watched
throughout the nation.
