Employment Security Commission Proposes Hiring
 Experts to Rewrite Present Long, Unavoidable Law

JUNEAU, R-A snag over how to pay the expenses blocked inn mediate action by the Advisory Council of the Employment Se- curity Commission Friday on the proposal that two experts be hired to write new employment secur- ity act to present to the next leg islature.
 The proposal went before the councils first meeting. The com mission opened it's meeting last Thursday and the council Friday.
 The two groups were addressed by Gov. Heintzleman at joint session.
 HeintzleInan stressed the need for a stable, workable ESC for n1ula. He said the present condi- ton of the employment security fund was discouraging investors from starting new ventures in the territory.
 Right now we're scrapipg the bottom of the barrel" he said. "The tragedy is that the present situation is such that it is impos- sible to raise the level of the fund in times of high employment in Alaska"
 Advisory Council Chairman Herbert s. Rowland, Juneau, em- phasized the commissions desire to hire experts to obtain an im- partial survey of Alaska's econ omy. He said commission mem bers were "very green" in their grasp of the problem. He stressed that the cost of the survey should be shared equally by labor and management.
 The question of how to raise the needed money brought con flicting opinions, both on whether
The Nome nugget., 1956-09-10

it. could be raised, and the need of such survey in view of ex- isting data.
 C. w. Snedden, Fairbanks, a member of the commission repre- senting management, said the aim is to get flair objective"
 "Our overall objective. is to put the act in decent shape so that we can go to the federal government to ask reimbursement to the ter ritory during construction per- iod," he said.
 Snedden referred to the heavy drain on the fund by construction workers during the idle winter months.
The Nome nugget., 1956-09-10

The opinion has been expressed frequently in Alaska that since much construction is part of the national defense effort the gov ernment should underwrite its cost to the territory in such pay ments of expenses to the jobless.
 The territory has already bor- rowed three million dollars to keep the fund above water. Heint- zleman reminded the commission and the council of the need to pay that money back.
 Commission members agreed that the existing law Is ainbigu- ous, unduly long and unavoidable technically.
