Organized Labor Did Well Under Governor's Program SACRAMENTO IUPI) Gov. Edmund G. Brown's major defeat in the 1959 Legislature was in the field of labor. But organized labor itself fared well, gaining the biggest boosts it ever has received in the field of unemployment pay, disability pay lor off the Job injuries and work men's compensation for on-the-job injuries. Brown took three swings at la bor bills, but he struck out. Bills to set a $i 25 minimum wage hi industry and 90 cents an hour for farm workers, to control jurisdic tional strikes and to reform labor union regulations were killed. However. Brown scored one ma jor victory in getting passage of a Fair Employment Practices Commission. He later described this as one of the two top issues in his legislative program The Fair Employment Practices Commission will be formed to pro tect against discrimination in man agement and labor because ol rrce, creed or national origin Legislature passed three bills oi unemployment insurance: The majo" one increases max imum Jobless pay benefits from $40 to $35 a week. These benefits are paid to jobless workers at a rate determined by their highest quarterly wages in a one-year pe riod before they lay off. Persons earning up to $67 a week In their highest quarter would get no increased benefits. A person who earned $67 a week in his highest quarter would get $34 a week jobless pay instead of $33 under present law. At $76 a week in wages, the benefit will jump from $36 to $38 a week; at $100 a week from $40 to $48; and at $115 a week and over the benefit will be $55 a week in stead of the present $40. Labor had asked for a $65 a week maximum. The present scale was worked out as a compromise with management representatives. A second unemployment insur ance bill passed by the Legislature extends the number of weeks job less pay may be drawn from 26 to 39 weeks in recession periods. The extra 13 weeks take elfect automatically when unemployment reaches six per cent of the labor force. - A third unemployment insur ance bill provides that jobless pay may be drawn when he also re ceives supplemental unemployment benefits from his employer. This Is to cover some labor contracts in which employers donate to a fund from which laid off workers draw supplemental pay to bring their jobless pay up to 65 per cent of their normal wages. The cost of all three of these unemployment Insurance bills will be paid by the employers. The major disability insurance bill for off the job injuries creases maximum benefits from sjO to $65 a week. No increase is provided in this bill for persons earning less than $88 a week Those over that figure gain up to $15 per week more than they would under the present law. This program is paid for by the woikcr at the rate of one per cent of his first $3,600 in wages per year or $36 per year.

E. iJiml Cummings. turned the first symbolic shovelful of earth to indicate the tart of the long-awaited Greenhorn Dam project, which will assure the Yre ka residents a plentiful supply of water for years to come. Following the water bond elec tion last year for $550,000 to con struct the much-needed dam, it was not until April 2 of this year that it was advertised for bids. and on April 16, 1959, a resolution wa3 passed by the city council to sell the bonds, in order that con struction could begin. On May 14 the city council awarded the contract for construc tion of the dam to the Baldwin Contracting Company, Marysville. with preliminary construction of roeds started shortly thereafter. Construction is scheduled for completion November 15, 1959, ready to store the run-off of water. It will cover 22 acres of ground, and will measure 750 acre feet of water at the top. Mayor Cummings. prior to the opening ceremony, made a brief statement saying, "The reason we are gathered here today is to of ficially start our Greenhorn Dam water project. I am glad to see the members of tl city council who worked hard to arrive at this point, and you citizens who were leaders, among the many others working for this project, and I want to thank all, including others who are not here today." Mayor Cummings then cited how there would now be more water than first anticipated, and should the demand arise, it was possible to create more storage area.
