He said that the j project would double power at: down-river dams and would aid in the development of the Pacific northwest. & Robert Ball, Idaho Power com pany attorney from Boise, said the issue; involved was whether the development should be achiev ed by "venture capital and private energies or by the federal govern ment at taxpayers expense." i: Bert Dennis of Baker, repre senting ' the Snake River Free Enterprise association said :the projected dam is not justified and would mean "a further step ;to- rward socialism."

ENJOY TODAY TAKE 65 WEEKS TO PAY Wesfjndhniise Discussion of JbblessPay Today et Unemployed workers would re ceive about 10.8 per cent more in benefits and employer taxes would drop approximately 15per cent if four bills approved by the senate on February 26 are passed by the house and signed by the governor, the state unemployment compen sation commission announced Sat urday. The bills will be discussed at a special house labor and industries committee session at 1 p.m. today. Net effect of the four bills, of ficials said, would be to raise pay ments from the estimated $11, 000,000 during the current benefit year to $12,188,000 and to lower contributions from approximately $11,000,000 to about $9,500,000. Exact reaction of . the bills would depend somewhat on allowing voluntary contributions to add to the two-step change in the ex perienced rate. Officials said two of the pro posed amendments to the. benefit formula would increase payments while the third, the modified California plan substituted for the seasonality provision, would bring about an offsetting decline. It was estimated that senate bill 155, which raises maximum annual benefits to one-third of the base year wages, would cost about 9.6 per cent more than the present one-fourth limitation, while sen ate bill 260, which provides for extra allowances of from $3 up to $10 a week for dependent chil dren, would add about 4.7 per cent to total benefits. Less Workers Covered The California plan, as outlined in senate bill 261, officials said, not only would cut down benefits WEIGHS YOUR CLOTHES TO SAVE YOUR MONEY Just place clothes to be washed on the Laundromat's exclusive Weigh-to-Save Door.

A WEEK OPEtl FR1; rilTE hi 9 p. a by, about 2 per . cent . but ' also would eliminate about 23,000 more workers from coverage under the unemployment act. According to studies .based on employers' re ports for the 1950 benefit year nearly 30 per cent of these work ers had principal earnings in lum ber and wood products, about 25 per cent in trade and service, 15 per cent in food processing, 10 per cent in construction, and, the re maining 20 per cent in miscella neous manufacturing; transporta tion, utilities and other pursuits. Under a new provision estab lishing an annual earnings mini mum ; of $750 except for those making less than three-fourths of quarter, these 25,000 workers would be added to the 110,000 persons now ineligible because -of annual pay under $400. i More Redactions j Senate biU 265. officials said, allows further reductions in ex perience rates. Reserves of from 2 to 10 per cent of the firms aver age annual payrolls would be necessary to obtain reduced rates (from 2.4 to 0.3 per cent). An other provision would permit ad ditional voluntary -contributions in making a three-step change in rate classes. Average rates on tax able pay rolls may be ; brought close to the one per j cent: mark if the measure is approved, it was estimated. Defeat of the 4 "one-or-more" bill (S. B. 23) by one vote (14 to 13) in the senate came after the committee voted 5-to-l in favor of the commission proposal. Inis was the fourth time this measure has lost in the legislature. The measure would have added about 18,000 employers of about 30,000 persons to the coverage. Additional annual revenue was AT Just Arfived Brand New 80-Square PERCALE!
