True Functions OF
DIES Are Outlined

of potential manpower. Here
our program of cooperation
with the high schools in the
testing and counseling of youth
at the time of his earliest en-
ployment experience is one of
our most challenging tasks.
An effective program of spe-
cial service to veterans is not
only legal but practical neces-
slty in our attempt to assure a
meaningful place in the life of
a community.
Encouraging annual increases
in the number of handicapped
applicants placed in gainful EN-.
ployment attests to the prog
ress of this phase of our serv-
ice. Cooperation with other
agencies has been intensified on
the sound principle that the
solution of the problems of the
handicapped requires the con-
certed efforts of various organ.
izations.
The nation has become in
creasingly aware that its popu-
lation is growing older. The
adult population increased by
almost II percent between 1916

ed. Substantial, if not spectac.
ular, progress has been made.
Nationally speaking, in July
1857, Is percent of all non.agri-
cultural placements made were
workers over as years of age.
Despite the recession, which
made placement of the older
worker even more difficult this
figure increased to nearly %
percent by April 1858.
JObless Pay Maligned
Possibly the most maligned
function of the Department of
Security is the
of unemployment in
surance checks to the current
ly unemployed. The idea is not
a new once since one of the
earliest successful plans was
Strated by the trade unions in
Belgium in 1897. The first pro-
posal for unemployment insur-
ance made in this country was
in 1916. Adequate unemploy-
ment compensation adds no
burden which society would not
IN any case bear when unem.
ployment occurs. 1t is neces-
sary to the smooth working of
a full employment economy.
Unemployment is one of the
greatest risks to a community
and one of the most serious
risks which wage earners face.
Unemployment in insurance is
more than a method to give
assistance to the man out of
work. 1t helps sustain the de.
mand for goods and thus pre-
vent unemployment. The fl.
nancing of these benefits over
the past years is a story of over
estimates of benefit costs.
We deal with many aspects
of human nature in the employ.
ment service. When a man is
fitted by disposition, ability, ed
ucation and training for the
work he does we have the real
beginning of personal utopia
which could spread to all soci-
ETY..
Deprived of work the man be.
comes unhappy, disgruntled and
emotionally upset. Your en-
ployment office hopes to meet
the continuing challenge to eff.
feet a better service in stabiliz.
ing employment in our commu-
nifty.
