United States and will be reim-
bursed by the United States for
any additional costs Of such pay
mentS. If q State does not have
such an agreement, the Secretary
will make the unemployment
compensation payments and will
apply the benefit standards un-
der the law of such State. Unem-
ployed workers filing a claim in
Puerto Rico or the Virgin Is
lands will be paid according to
the benefit standards under the
unemployment compensation law
Of the District Of Columbia.
S. How would annual leave be
treated?
Annual Leave Payments.
Compensation would not be
payable for the period covered
by accrued annual leave pay
ments upon separation. In other
words, the Federal worker would
not be considered as unemployed
until the expiration of the period
covered by accrued annual leave
paid to him in a lump sum at the
time Of his separation. Any pay
ments received during his Fed
eral employment with respect to
periods in which he was on leave
would be considered to be
wages.
6. What would be the amount
and duration of his or her
weekly unemployment insurance
benefits?
The District of Columbia
maximum rate Is $40 for 20
weeks. CThe Districts unem-
ployment benefits are among
the lowest in the country and
there is now move to have
Congress improve the benefits
to a maximum of $26 for %
weeks. Maryland pays $50 a
week las much as $38 if the
employee has four dependents)
for a total of 26 weeks. Vir-
ginia pays $24 a week for 16
weeks.
7. How would the unemployed
Federal worker secure unem-
ployment insurance benefits?
File by Residence.
Jobless Federal worker would
file claims for unemployment
compensation benefits in the
State where they lived, even
though the payments will depend
on the rate paid by the State
where he worked. He would be
expected to look for work and
be available for suitable job
openings in private industry, as
we'll as in Federal employment.
Every effort will be made by the
local public employment Office to
assist him in finding a job. The
unemployed Federal worker must
continue to report at the local
employment Office. To receive

Arsenal officials said &c" refers
to a general class of chemical

vidual agent in that class. They
declined further data on the gas
because of security implications.
The gas was described as so
deadly it could leave its victim

Rabbits and canaries along

safety precautions. The Gagged
rabbits and birds are placed in
spots where they would react

Chemists say there is an anti
dote-atrophine. a chemical de-
rived from a plant grown mostly
in countries behind the iron cur
tain. American chemists have
learned to produce the substance
synthetically for use through
hypodermic injections.
The Post said that despite
safety precautions, a few workers
at the plant have been affected
by the gas. but quick treatment
averted tragedy in each case.

Determination of Rights.
2. Under these proposals how
would unemployment insurance
benefit rights be determined?
A Federal workers rights to
benefits would be determined
usually under the unemployment
insurance law of the State in
which the worker had his official
job station when he became un-
employed. or, If he has been
working out Of the country, the
State in which he is located
when he files his claim.
FOR example. an employee who
lives in Maryland but who works
in the District of Columbia would
be paid at the Districts rates.
Or. an employe living in Virginia
who works in Maryland would
be paid at Maryland rates.
3. If a separate federal en-
ploye secures a job in private
employment and then loses it,
how will his rights to benefits be
determined?
Under these bills his federal
service and federal wages would
be assigned to the State in which
the separated federal employe
had the private job. Benefit
rights based on wages earned
with the Federal Government,
and rights based on private en-
ployment covered by the State
unemployment insurance law,
would be combined.
4. How would the benefit
rights of federal workers be as
Sured?

thorized to enter into agreements

Flanders corlrnends
kcCahhy's Speech
As Good for Party
BY the Assoeiossd Press

M1DDLEBURY. Vt. Mar. 70.
Senator Flanders, Republican,
Of Vermont. today praised Sem
ator McCarthy's Milwaukee
speech and said "all will be for
given if he continues to per-
form as he did last night"
Should Mccarthy not snap
at the hand of the President. all
will be fine" Senator Flanders.
a vigorous critic of the Wiscon-
sin Republican. told a panel
meeting of the 18th annual Mid
dlebury College Conference.
Senator Flanders attacked
Senator Mccarthy on the Sen
ate floor March 9 for doing his
best to shatter the Republican
Party by intention or through
ignorance"
Calls Speech Magnificent.
Today he said Senator Nc
Carthy's speech of last night was
magnificent for the Republican
Party :. it gives signs that he
is finally hitting the sawdust
trail"
II hope that he is because he
could be of tremendous value to
the Republican Party" SEN
ator Flanders said.
A fellow-panelist, Edward
O'Neil, city editor of the Louis
vile KyD Times, asked Sena-
tor Flanders If his view rs the
new Republican Party line to-
ward Mccarthy
Senator Flanders answered,
after a pause. that "aS a news
paperman, you should know
there is no Republican Party
line"
The Vermont Senator predict
ed that the Democratic Party
will be hard put" to answer
Senator McCarthy's 20 'indict-
ments" recited in his speech last
night.
Had Blasted Mccarthy.
Senator Flanders praise of
Senator Mccarthy today was in
direct contrast to the sharp crit
iciSm he voiced in his speech
March 9. At that time, he de-
clared Senator Mccarthy be
longs to Q one-man party
twhoSe name is McCarthyism,
q title which he has proudly
accepted"
Senator Flanders told the con-
ference the threat to the United
States ''iS from without, not
from within. He said the Soviet
Union controls almost a third
of the worlds population and
wants the rest"
On the same panel. Robert L.
Jones of Portland. Me-, oppos-
ing Senator Margaret Chase
Smith, Republican of Maine for
the G. o. P. senatorial nomina-
ton. said congressional investi-s
eating committees are essential
to the function of Congress-
He said the controversy In
volving Roy Cohn of tho Me-
Carthy committee would hevefe
have developed had any s1lator
other. than Joe Mccarthy been
involved"
THE entire affair."" Mr.. Jones
said. "is very clearly a deliberate
left-wing effort to destroy Sena-
tor Mccarthy and split the Re-
publican administration"
Calls Attack Reckless"
Mr.. Jones spoke before Sena-
tor Flanders and termed his
March 8 attack on Senator Me-
earthly "unwarranted, reckless
and with no constructive effect
other than to provide campaign
ammunition for the Democrats"
1T would be far more proper"
Mr.. Jones said, "for Republican
Senators to join rather than con-
denim Senator Mccarthy in his
effort to expose the conspiracy"
During a question period. Mr..
Jones was asked if he had the
support of Senator Mccarthy in
his campaign for the senatorial
nomination.
II would be delighted to have
the support of that great Amer
ican." Mr.. Jones replied.
