Bragaw Reports
Activity Jobless
Comm. Alaska
(Following is the continuation
of the article printed in the An
chorage times, telling of the es
tablishment this fall of the act
ive agencies of the Territorial
Unemployment Compensation
Commission.)
(Continued from Yesterday)
If an industrial establishment
has slack business during any
period of the year, and are forc
ed to reduce the payrolls the
employment service of the terri
tory, working in co operation with
the commission, will seek jobs
for the idle workers in keeping
with their experience and qualifi
cations. If business conditions are
such that jobs cannot be found,
each idle worker, whose idleness
results from no fault of his own,
will be paid unemployment com
pensation for a period of not to
exceed 20 weeks, at a rate of
payment not to exceed $15 a week
based on the weekly earnings of
employee during the time the em
ployer and the employee were
contributing to the fund.
While payments to idle work
ers will not begin until January
1, 1939. employers are required
to make contributions to the fund
in 1937 and 1938. This is being
done to create a fund from which
the payment can be drawn. These
contributions are being deposit
ed in the federal treasury and are
drawing interest on daily bal
ances. and will continue to draw
interest until they are needed to
pay benefits to eligible unemploy
ed. This interest is bein g added
to the unemployment compensa
tion trust fund, and can be used
for no other purpose than the
payment of compensation to un
employed wage earners in the
territory of Alaska.
The local social security laws
governing the territorial compen
sation commission are the finest
in the country, Mr. Bragaw said,
inasmuch as they were drawn up
by the social security board in
Washington, D. C.
In November, an advisory board
will be established, Mr. Bragaw
added, to draw up and discuss
new laws and regulations. This
board will be composed of repre
sentatives of the various territor
ial industries and labor factions,
employees and employers. Inad
dition, the general public will be
permitted voice in the matter,
particularly the determining of
i board and room rates when in
cluded in the individual’s salaries.

Sen. Patterson
Valdez in Favor
Of Single House
Senator Janies H. Patter-son, ol
Valdez is very much in favor of {
a one-house or unicameral legis
lature for Alaska, believing that j
more work could be done in a
much shorter time at much less'
!
expense.
Mr. Patterson believes that j
nine men should compose the un
cameral legislature with one at
large.
Delegate A. J. Dimond also ap
proves the one-house legislature,
and has introduced a bill in the
House which has been approved
bv the House Territories Commit
tee, and which would authorize j
a vote on the question at the next'
general election.
Like Mr. Patterson, Mr. Dimond j
'believes that the move would be
,more businesslike and would be
! less expensive.
