EIGHT Revised Rates of Jobless Pay Will Start July 1st With the newly legislated mid year benefit period starting in ihe first week of July, 29 local olfices of the State Unemploy ment Comnensalion Commission will receive new 1947-48 claims today. While actual compensa tion can not start until after a preliminary 'waiting week and another week without work, early elulms-filintf will allow time to determine Ihe workers' rights to benefits. New claims were received last week from several thousand un employed who have been receiv ing payments during the shorten ed benefit year that ends with the last week of June. Many of these claimants can use again most of their 194(i wage credits for 1947 48 benefits durin" the transition period as decided upon by the recent legislature. Nearly 55 000 persons have filed 1947 claims but only 5,258 received checks last week. About 8,000 exhausted their benefit rights during the six months' period.

Those unemployed who earned more than $1,450 in 194G will be entitled to slightly higher weekly lienefils under the amended law that goes into elfect with the start of the mid-year benefit "er iod.
