Benefit Claims

With layof,s in the construction
industry, seasonable employment
and in plants outside the county,
u II m p 10 Y ment compensation
claims increased from a weekly
average of SO last month 10 near
ly 100 on January Is, l.. r. Het-
rick, manager of the Pert Clinton
office of the Ohio Bureau of I'M
employment Compensation stated
this week.
Twenty-one persons We're placed
on jobs during December, but
Hetrick states that there are few
orders for workers at the present
time.
Only minor layoffs have occur
ed in few of the local industries
The average amount of benefits
paid per claimant is about $lS.0C
per week. In almost tripling the
claims, the unemployed set a new
high since Sept. 1945. 1t is felt
that the number of claims will be
reduced shortly as the plants re-
turn to normalcy.

Federal Budget
To Cost S312 Each

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES of Ot-
tawa county will contribute ap-
proximately $5,962,648 to the cost
of federal government operations
in the coming year if the Truman
budget is enacted by Congress, ac-
cording to the Ohio Chamber of
Commerce.
Estimaterd cost for the state at
large would be $2,442,770,000, or
eight and one-half times the total
expenditures for general opera
tions of Ohio state government in
1948, it was reported by Execu-
tive Vice-President H. c. Atkin-
son.
The burden would be approx
mately $312.63 for every man,
woman, and child in the state, or
$1,250.52 for every Ohio family,
Atkinson said. Each individual
pays, not only in direct and indi-
rect taxes, but more important, in
the price of all foods and every
thing used and consumed, he
stated.

TOTEM

asked were What could the
pastors do to bring back more
laboring people to the Church?
Totten replieds that those who
are represented in the labor
organizations of the country
feels that Christ was himself
a laborer and did not necessa-
1ily come to the world to
preach the doctrine of the cap
italist or those who live off
the fat of the land. He believed
said he that if ministers would
give a little more care to the
material side of life and not
so much to the spiritual that
the 1aboring man and woman
would support the church far
better than they do at the pre-
sent time.
Most ministers, said he, be-
lieve in preaching from their
pulpjits that labor is used to
destroy capital which is far
from the truth and as a result
of so many of these sermons
labor beginh to feel that most
pastors are opposed to the
workers in their fight for high
er wages and better living con-
ditions.
Totten gave an illustration
that when the Brotherhood of
Sleeping Car Porters move
ment started a, number of
preachers allegedly got on the
payroll of the Pullman Com
pany and began preaching
from their pulpits against the
movement. Were it not for
the kind of leadership in the
Brotherhood today the group
income would not have been
increased thirty-Six million
dollars annually.
He further stated that since
the ears of the people are at
tuned to the voice of the prea-
cher it necessarily follows that
they are going to be influence
ed by what he tells them from
the pulpit. If he expresses OPP
position to the principles for
which labor stands it is quite
natural that labor is not 60
ing to support the church.
Totten concluded that it is
vitality important that those
who are leaders manifest a
special interest in the group
income of the workers be-
cause increased wages means
a higher life. If wages are low
