JANUARY 31. 1936. r : y. ; Carbon County Greets Its FViends Labor WHAT IS AHEAD FOR 1936 IN SOCIAL SECURITY (Continued from jwgs 1) billion dollars in the form of ten unemployment insurance to which they were entitled as a matter of course instead of as a relief dole payable only after investigating and finding that they were in dire need. So much for what might have been. The unemployment compensation provisions of the social security act can be explained very simply. A payroll tax will be levied on all employers of eight or more amounting to 1 per cent of pay-ro- ll in 11)30, 2 per cent in 11)37, and 3 per cent in 1938 and thereafter. Agricultural labor, domestic service, certain maritime employment, service in the employment of the United States government or state, county and city governments, service performed for certain very close relatives, and for religious, charitable, scientific, literary, and educational institutions are excepted from this tax. Each employer may get credit against this tax (up to 90 per cent) for contributions to a state unemployment compensation fund establish, ed in accordance with a state unlaw employment compensation which has been approved by the social security board. The federal tax will bring money into the general treasury, for the general purposes of the government. of this payroll tax at home for the use of its unemployed, by collecting it as contributions rather than letting the federal government collect it as a tax. The passage of the state law will not cost the state anything, if administration is efficient, for under the social security act the federal government stands ready to grant to the states sufficient amounts to pay all proper administrative expenses. Nor will the state which acts promptly be at any competiother tive disadvantage with states, for employers in states which do not act will have their payrolls levied upon in any event. the The difference between states which pass unemployment compensation laws and those which do not, then, is simply that the state which acts will get the benefit of the payroll levy, while the state which does not act will not nine-tent- get this benefit. Nine States Qualify Nine states and the District of Columbia, whose employers provide more than a third of the entire payroll of the country, now have unemployment compensation laws. In many other states bills proposing such laws are being introduced in the legislatures now convening.
