JJinto . i T71VEKY': important question JLi on both sides of the issue lights and principal features of the proposal.- In this unem ployments insurance; is nol. exception -.The suggestion , that we should insure employment has brought out many - argu ments . both "for , and! against the scheme, some of which ar well worth considering. ... v f The -first claim that the pro-insurance people, make for 1 tnetr. ease is -me xact tnat mereo vrlll be an. increased feeling of. curity on the part ofthe working vis.n anil 4h anK Acllni r411 man and that such a 'feeling will undoubtedly -tend ! to Ishow itself by the. production - of better. work era the part of the workmen. There is no doubt but that the feeling of fear has in .many . cases caused over anxiety and loss of efficiency." As a ' psychological factor this phase should not be overlooked. !. One problem which has faced the -supporters of unemployment insurance is the factor Jot; actuarial soundness of the proposition. Mr. Abraham Epstein, executive secre tary of the American! Association for Old Age Security spoke as fol lows on the "Question" before a U. S. Senate special committee: ' - - "The superiority of unemploy ment i insurance lies in 1 the fact that it makes use of one of the greatest social methods 1 ever de vise the principle of insurance. it is the same principle which uh derlies tire insurance, or " life in surance. Few people can. with stand the loss caused by ' extensive fire, but, by the ; payment of a small annual sum! they ! can pro cure , protection agalnstr such a loss, j blot' many people can feel assured .that- through, their own savings their wives and children wiU be adequately protected after death; ut by the payment of a small sum annually, which they can afford, they can 'secure this protection. These great benefits are made possible through the dls tribution of the risk upon as wide a group as possible". That is all. really that the whole thing is. The larger the group, and the more varied the risk, the greater are the advantages of f the Insurance principle. , Compulsory Insurance against unemployment on a na tional scale would: make use of the widest possible range, and Would thus achieve the cheapest possible lorm of insurance. By including .all Industries and most occupations, the burden of unem ployment would be. distributed so that it would not fall heavily upon any single industry." : ! ".... the prosperous industries and employed workers, would help to bear the load-of the weaker members. - In this way the burden would not prove hard, and at the same time there would be the feel lng of security on the part of all insured that should misfortune befall them, they would be. pro tected. Whatever arguments are now used against unemployment insurance apply equally well against fire insurance,! life insur ance and accident insurance. t UeraiaoyBiaf Average 8 : It is stated' by the backers o the insurance scheme that a study of unemployment oventhe period extending from 1890 to 1916 the average unemployment amounted to 10 of the working class. This figurei including! those absent due to illness and oat on strike. Ex cluding these they.; estimate the average at,8 and calculate that a three to four per rate of the payrolls would be: adequate to meet the benefits to be paid.

To support this conten tion they point to the operation of the. Workmen's Compensation act in cutting down accidents by the cutting of rates when a good rec ord is maintained.: - . - : - In ' fact, " one' strong argument which is advanced in favor of un employment insurance . is the en tire operation of the Workmen's Compensation Acts. They advance the theory that unemployment is risk of industry and that in con- sefluence-they should provide for the industrial unemployed as they do for the Injured. This is cer tainly a plausible argument but is claimed to be fallacious as will be seen later in the opposition's argu ment. - -. V - One of the most reasonable com parlsons which is made for unem ployment insurance is with din dend ; reserves. President .

Just as reserves are accumulated to. secure ' the stockholders they should be accumulated to secure the wage-earner employment. Div idends -are not necessarily 'paid from the' ..income ' of - the .current year and workers shall be relieved of this unfair practice.-" ; - r . - , Beserres for Labor ,; Substantiating this, argument Professor, Sumner CW; Slichter of Harvard, asserted in the New Re public December 31, 1930; i ,' Industry v pays dividends on idle capital ; . , In 1921 corpora tions ! engaged in - manufacturing experienced net losses of ap proximately . 8101,000,000. Nev ertheless, in this year they paid dividends on their common stock of oyer a billion dollars ; . " Why should not the policy of building up reserves to continue payments during periods of depressions be applied to labor as well as to cap ital? This argument tends to bring to the fore the question of human values as against property values. but the proponents' go on to add that capital should -be glad to thus support the. unemployed In order to keep an easi" flow of money which is so essential to the suc cess of any business. . Some of the backers of .the un employment Insurance plan hare openly stated . that the idea Is only a step In the direction of complete social - insurance pro gram. This program in the main is composed of the following: se curity against the risks of unem ployment,. industrial accidents, in dustrlal diseases, C non-industrial accidents, ill-health, disablement, maternity, old -age. and death.
