Alaska Employers Receive Credit Rating Notices

The Employment Security Com mission of Alaska has just com pleted its third annual release of Experience Rtating Credit Notices to employers covered by the Act. John T. Mclaughlin, director of the Unemployment Insurance Di- vision, state that 1,10l employers have by now received Credit No tices aggregating Sl,390, 0,480.39. This credit may be used to offset cash contributions due for the quarters ending September 30, l949. December 31, 1949, March 3l. 1850, and June 30, 1850.
 The diStributable surplus avail able for credit this years is sub stantially greater than for the two previous credit years; also a great CT number of employers both large and small will benefit for the first time under the Experience Rating Provisions of the Law. This in crease is due primarily to the au- toomatic fulfillment of four-year employment experience require ment by those employers who be- came liable on June 1, l945. when liability for coverage was amend ed to include one or more employ ees.
 At the present time more than 459o of covered employers are re- ceiving benefits under the Experi- ence Rating Provisions of the Alaska Law. The remaining 55% are not qualified for such reasons as insufficient employment experi- ence, contribution report delin- quency or delinquencies in pay ment of contributions due. Elm ployers in this category will re- ceive a Notice advising the spe- cific reason for disqualification. If an employer does not concur in the disqualification, he has re- course to file request for adjust ment. If such request is denied by the Commission, the employer

tice of Denial.
 It is necessary to point out that employers receiving credit have merited such credit on the basis of their employment experience dur ing the past three calendar years. Employers with little or not an nual pay roll declines have re- ceived the highest rate of credit and conversely employers with downward fluctuations in annual pay rolls have received the lowest rate of credit Int merit rating therefore, a direct relationship eX- ists with the unemployment insur- ance risk borne by the Commits sion with respect to employers, both individually and collective ly. All employers are urged to use Experience Rating Credit now possessed or to be possessed in the future as a factor in management ana planning.
 Annual payrolls should be sta bilized to the extent possible inaS- much as downward fluctuations will result in reduced credit or disqualification for ensuing years It is interesting to note that dur ing the time experience rating has been in effect the Unemployment Trust Fund in the U. s. Treasury has increased from S9,725,94l 30 on July 1, 1947, to $1O,111 ,2O4.7O on July 1, 1949 despite the fact that during this period the Agency has experienced an unprecedented benefit payment load.

JullG u 1910.
Four years ago, into our home
A ray of sunshine came,
A precious little sweetheart
and Sandra was her name.
Jesus lent her to us
For just little while,
So we would know the JOY
OF her sweet and sunny smile.
She loved the pretty flowers
And the little bird that sings,
She got so much happiness
From just such little things.
Why she had to suffer sickness,
pain, and all the rest,
We can not understand, but
We know that God knew best.
She was Daddy'S little pistol
And Mommy's sweetheart true,
She was Grandpa's little monkey,
And Aunt Dee's sweet dolly too.
She had a Grandma here on earth
And a baby brother too,
And a Grandma waiting for her
In the Land beyond the blue.
She had uncleS, aunts and cousins
And little friends by the score,
She'll be waiting for their coming
On that bright and happy shore.
We loved her, how we loved her,
But Jesus loved her too,
So He took her Home to Heaven
Where she waits for me and you.
Lord, help us to be faithful
And always watch and pray,
So we can meet our sweetheart
In the Land of fadeleSS Day.
