Sharp Contribution
Rate Cuts Set By
State Commission
Reduction in employer co n trib u
tion rates have been announced by
the S tate Industrial Accident
Commission, effective July 1,
1960. These reductions will apply
in 277 im lustrial and trad e daasi-
filiations of Oregon business. Only
78 classifications did not qualify
fo r base rate reductions, but rates
in semi' o f these classifications
a re already so low fu rth e r reduc
tio n s are virtually impossible.
Redurtiona result from the ex
cellent cooperation of labor and
m anagem ent in reducing accidents
by establishing and m aintaining
effective safety program s, both
preventive an«l educational.
Tlwse reduction» in employer
contributions to the Industrial
A ccident Fund will result in esti
m ated saving» of approxim ately
one million dollars per y ear w
emipioyer» insured by the State
Industrial Acculent Commission.
The law provide« th at the State
Industrial A ccident Commission
Khali adju st em ployer contribu
tions in keeping with good insur
ance practice when their experi
ence justifies such reductions.
The new employer contribution
ra te schedules mark the fourth re
duction in S tate Industrial Acci
dent Insurance premium rates
since 1943. D uring the same period
the various legislatures have In
creased workmen'» benefit pay
m ents un«ler the a i t fo u r times.
W'htle the increase in compensa*
tion for workmen is in keeping
w ith the increas«« in th e coat of
living, the dow nw ard trend In cm-
ployer contribution rat«*» is more
sta rtlin g by comparison.
In all of the enumerate«! classi
fications w here hazards have
generally twycn high, the reductions
have been accomplished because
o f o arn n t experience ratings w ith
in the reapectivw industries which
prove that accidents can be p re
vented through accident preven
tion program s.
The largest dollar savings will
be refle« ted in the classifications
of general farm ing, m achine »hops,
logging, «awmilbng, pulp and
paper uxanufactunng, prin tin g and
p ublahing, road and street con-

There a re good reasons fo r re
quiring registration, and fo r clos
ing registration 30 days p rio r to
tire election. The 30-day deadline
is necessary so th a t th e county
< leTk can m ake up registration
lists to furnish the polling idaces
on election day. When you aiipear
rut the precinct polls to cast your
vote, your name is checked off
th e list— this prevents “ rej>eating”
and other forms o f election fraud.
It may sound like "m ore of that
i ed tap e," but it is for the voters’
protection.
However, m any people think;
"W hy, the election isn’t until May
—d ’ve got plenty of tim e to take
car© of registering.” It's easy to
forg et th at 30 «lay deadline, and
you haven’t got plenty o f time.
YOU HAVE FOUR MORE DAYS
TO REGISTER in order to be
eligible to vote in the May p ri
m aries. The deadline fo r reg istra
tion is April 18.
