Storm Affects Unemployment Seasonal layoffs and shut- downs due to the Columbus Day windstorm caused Oregon’s un employment insurance claim s to increase considerably compared to a month ago. according to J. K arl Corey, director, unem ployment insurance division. Unemployment insurance claims were up for the week ending Oct 18 from 9,652 four weeks ea rlier to 12,067 last week, Corey said. Rate of in sured unemployment was also up from 2.4 to 3.0. The number of claim s and rate, however, were still lower than a year ago when them were 13,334 claims and a rata of 3.3. F o r the week ending Oct. 1», weeks of insurance claim s in creased 19.5 per cent over the previous week’s total. Shut downs were reported by nearly all areas which suffered storm damage. In addition, rainy weather throughout much of the eastern portion of the state caused in terruptions in harvesting pota toes and carrots as well as pre venting the continuation of log ging and m ill operations and some construction projects. On Wednesday Mrs Zaida Swanson of Scottsburg, case work supervisor from Pacific area, ARC, spoke to the Gold Beach Rotary at their weekly luncheon meeting at Sunset Inn Mrs. Swanson gave a report of expenditures to date, an out line of bow disaster rehabilita tion is conducted, and noted that Curry county residents’ need for financial assistance was actually lower than origi nal estimates due to the fact that the percentage of insured Damage to farm buildings in homeowners was higher than is in the county during the re usual to disaster areas.
