been particularly hard hit by un-
employment, and for quite some
time unemployment has also been
very severe in textile areas. The
two areas with the highest rate
of unemployment in the late sum-
mer and early fall were Lawrence,
Massachusetts,, textile center, and
Beckley, West Virginia, coal min
ing area. In each of these areas
nearly one out of every four work.
ers was jobless. Other coal min
ing areas such as Altoona, Johns
town, Scranton and Wilkes-Barre,
Pennsylvania, and Jasper, Ala
bama, and the so-called Little
Egypt" area in Southern Illinois
have also had very heavy unem-
ployment.
Unusually heavy unemployment
has by no means been confined to
coal and textile areas. For ex-
ample, large numbers of workers
have been laid off in such manu-
featuring areas as Pittsburgh,
Providence, Muskegon, South Bend,
Detroit, Erie, Reading, San An
tonic, Portland, Oregon, and
Springfield, Vermont.
Duration OF Unemployment
The average unemployed worker
has been out of work for three
months.
One way of measuring the full
impact Of unemployment is by the
length of time the unemployed are
out of work. According to the
Census, in October, 1854, the av-
erage jobles worker had been off
the job for about three months.
How do these unemployed workers
and their families live during the
long weeks of joblessness?
Some workers are eligible for
unemployment insurance, but large
numbers are either not covered at
all or are unjustly disqualified
from receiving payments. Even
those who do receive unemploy-
ment insurance cannot maintain
even minimum standards of liv-
ing. In September the average
unemployment insurance payment
for the country as a whole was
$25,57. This was only little
better than third of the average
weekly earnings of factory work
ers. In such states as North Caro-
lima, Texas, Florida and Arkansas,
the average payment was under
SIS.
Because under state laws the
length of time unemployed work
ers may receive benefits is so re-
stricted, each month thousands OF
workers exhaust their legal rights
to benefits. Thus during the first
nine months of 1854 unemployment
insurance payments were cut off
for more than 100000 unem.
ployed workers.
Taking into account the made
quate coverage, low level of pay
ments, short duration Of benefits
and exhaustion of benefit rights
Daniel Creamer, an expert in this
field, has estimated that, for every
dollar of wage loss, an unemployed

Kennedy Seeks
Lobbying Curbs

Senator Kennedy, Democrat,
of Massachusetts, will make a
fight in the 1856 session of Con-
|gress to clarity and strengthen
the law regulating lobbyists.
He introduced his bill in the
Senate yesterday to give his coll
leagues time to study it, but will
not seek hearings until early In
the next session.
A new feature of the Kennedy
bill would ban contracts to
lobby before Congress on a con-
tingent fee basis. with the COM
|pensation depending on the sue
cess of the lobbyist in securing
the passage or defeat of bill.
This practice, which is a seri-
Gus reflection upon the legisla-
tive process and those who seek
to influence 1t, is already out
lawed under the lobby control
laws of many States" said Sena-
tor Kennedy.
Under existing law, lobbyists
must register with Congress and
file financial reports. The Ken
nedy bill would send a copy of
all such reports to the Attorney
General, who enforces the act.
His bill also uses more precise
terms to define those covered by
the law. It removes the word
regulation" from the title to
emphasize that no stigma should
be attached to those registering
under the act.
