II. Dern to cope with unemployment thru-ou- t the state swung into action at an initial meeting called at the state capltol Wednesday. While Carbon county has been active in studying problems of unemployment, and organizations have been effected to study the situation and afford relief, this is the first unified action upon the part of the state to make a concerted study of the situation. One of the early resolutions adopted at the state meeting read as follows: Be It resolved: That it be the sense of this council of 100 that one of its objects Is to aid, where its services may be requested, local communities In their problem of creating employment and in their complementary problems of giving relief to those in need because of unemployment. Other requests favored by tho council is the establishment of civic employment agencies entirely disconnected from sectarian influences, for the distribution of work and funds collected for relief work, with no discrimination in racial or foreign-bor- n tolerated. worker Wages for public work were favored to be not less than $4 per day, and that work or unem ployment relief supplied by not less than f 1 5 a week plus $3 for each dependent. The council also favored supplying school children of unemworkers' ployed and part-tim- e children with milk and hot lunches, and suggested the provisions for free medical attention and hospital treatment Ways and means for the prevention of evictions for of rent due to unemployment were also advanced. Efforts will also be made to confine the relief work among the residents of the state. Carbon county commissioner W. J. Reid, Mayor F. Olson of Price and Mrs. A. F. Drury of Helper were among those named on the Governor's committee. County Unemployed Act Upon Time Checks At the Monday meeting of the Carbon County Unemployed association action was taken to have local bankers cash time checks Issued to workers employ ed on state road projects. At the present time workers are frequently required to wait several weeks before receiving their money from the office of the state road commission, and in cases where the working day? have been confined to the first part of the month, it Is not un- usual for the men to wait a month for their money. A committee will call upon the local banks with the request that they cash the checks, and then present the time checks to the state for payment. Such a policy would permit the ready circulation of money, and relievo many cases of distress where the families are deprived of the use of earned money over a period of time. If necessary the matter will be taken up with the Carbon County Bankers' association. Checkups made of the county situation reveals the fact that over 100 men have received work through the efforts of the county organization. The county group will continue In their attempts to secure rotation of local road work, until the situation is being handled more satisfactorily than at present. .
