Governor Praises Jobless Payments Sensible and Humane Says Executive - of Setup for Unemployed Payments of benefits under the Oregon state unemployment com pensation law, beginning January 1, 1938, were described by Gov ernor Charles H. Martin yesterday as "the development of a sensi ble, humane and businesslike sys tem of dealing with the hazard of unemployment.." "Workers want jobs rather than, benefits and our law proper ly recognizes that desire," Gover nor Martin said. "The merit sys tem in our law will reward the employer who stabilizes his em ployment by granting him a lower tax rate." The governor pointed out that employers affecting labor stabili zation in their plants may receive a payment rate nnder the state law as low as one-half of one per cent on covered payrolls after the merit system becomes fully oper ative. "The maximum rate may be as high as four per cent," Gov ernor Martin said. Good Effect Forecast "We are all hopeful that bene fit payment during the coming year will have a stimulating effect upon business by giving financial support to those whose unemploy ment is covered by" the law. Cer tainly it should do a great deal to alleviate distress in the families of workers upon whom the burden of unemployment falls. Governor Martin said he was anxious that every employer cov ered by the state unemployment compensation law conduct a stu dy of its merit provisions. S.
