President Signs Bill
Revamping District
Job|e5s Pay System
Regrets Measure Allows
Cut in Employer Taxes
In 'InfIotionory Period

President Roosevelt today
signed legislation revamping
the unemployment compensa-
ton system in the District, but
at the same time expressed ere
gret" that the bill provides for
an untimely reduction in the
rate Of contribution for the great
majority of employers in the
District"
This period of inf1ationary pres
sure is not a time to reduce taxes
the President said in brief state
ment
The measure sets up the so-called
experience rating system in The Dis
trict which is already in force in 81
States. Under this plan. the statu-
tory tax through which employers
finance the jobless benefit fund may
be reduced from 81 per cent Of
pay roll to one-tenth Of l per cent
if their record of stabilized employ
ment is SUFFICIENT to permit this
sharp decrease.

This is time to reduce expendi-

serves. I have repeatedly called the
attention of the Congress and the
country to the desirability of in
creasing the contributions in all
branches of the social security sys-

purchasing power now and providing
a fund from which payments can be
made in case of need at later time.
Although approving this local law,
I adhere to my earlier recommenda-
tions for national policy
Benefits Raised.
The new law raises benefit pav-
ments from $18 for 18 weeks to $40
for 20 weeks. and preserves the bene-
fit rights of individuals in the armed
forces.
The fiat tax rate in the old law
had built up the reserve fund to

On May Il the House of Rep
resentatives passed the substitute
Senate Bill 126 to increase the
working hours of women and
minors. This is the Ross bill which
was fought by labor and women's
organizations in both the house
and senate for four months. That
bill is now law.
Changes in the female and child
labor laws accomplished by pass
age of this bill will create many
new problems in our local unions
which have women members. Some
Of these problems will show up
Immediately and some will show
UP six or ten months from now.
Every local union which has an
eight hour day contract should
resist to the limit any proposal by
an employer to change the work
schedule from three eight-hour
shifts to two 10-hour shifts. It is
recommended that local union Off
GERS communicate with the State
CLIO Council concerning situations
that arise about women workers.
If developments make it neces-
sary, Ted Silvey will issue a spe-
cial news letter on this subject
to all local unions.
