gagged on vital projects and their
Willingness to travel from place to

Randolph 10 Speed
Bill 10 Cut Taxes for
D. {. Job|ess Pay
Long-Pending Measure
Would Reduce Levies
To One-HuIf of 1sPct.

Chairman Randolph announced
today he would call a special meet
ing of the House District Committee
later in the week to speed action on
a long pending bill designed to re-
vamp the local unemployment COM
pensation law.
One OF the chief features of the
legislation would authorize a reduc-
ton in the pay roll tax from 81 to
y of per cent-a cut estimated to
save employers heree at least
81 900 900 year. The; unemploy-
ment trust fund from which benefits
are paid has accumulated, as a re-
suit of the 27 per cent tax, a stag
gering surplus of $34,320397.
In present form the bill would
set up a sliding scale for the pay
roll tax which would range be-
tween 81 to u of l per cent. The
low rate would prevail as long as
there is sufficient reserve in the
trust fund to meet anticipated bene-
fit payments and could be adjusted
upward in event of an emergency
situation. The surplus is so large
now an immediate reduction to
n Of l per cent is possible.
Representative Randolph said the
bill should have No. position on
the calendar of District legislation
brought into the House and he
hoped the committee would report
it favorably at the special meeting
The subcommittee in charge OF the
bill has decided that in view of
extensive public hearings held on
it in the last Congress no further
hearings are necessary.
Need for the legislation is to be
discussed by Mr.. Randolph March 8
at dinner of the District Bar AS
sociation.
Aside from considering the unem-
ployment compensation BILL Chair
man Randolph said the committee
would complete its organization at
the special meeting and he would
appoint the personnel of regular
standing subcommittee Only one
meeting of the committee, am in
formal get-together, has been, held
since Congress convened in January.
