No Consideration Due Proposal For More Pay Check Looting A suggestion by Mrs. Cecilia P. Galey, chairman of the state unemployment compensation commission, that employees make contributions to the unemployment fund is likely to be met with general disfavor by em ployees and employers alike. In the first place, wage-earners have entirely too much withheld from their pay-checks and their employ ers are overburdened with the red tape and increasing expense of compiling records, handling funds and being subject to fines, penalities and interest imposed with out right of formal citation and trial bv a court or jury. Arguments that employees "would have a real stake in the fund” are pointless* for several reasons. Some of the unscrupulous gravey-train riders have been known to confuse social security, state and federal income taxes and their 2 cents a day contributions to the industrial accident commission with unemployment funds. It is not uncommon to hear the argument, “We pay into the unemployment fund, so we might as well get some of it back.” The permanent, sincere wage-earners—who are in the majority—are already being placed in jeopardy by the looting of funds in Oregon. Should such a person lose his job through no fault of his own, the amount he would receive for his and his family’s sustenance would not be enough to tide him over until he found other em ployment because of the wholesale dispersal of unem ployment funds to the unworthy. It is hard to believe that such a person would "become more scrupulous” by paying a portion of the cost and he should not be penal ized for the wrongs of others. The proposal, ll presented and approved by the legis lature, would not necessarily mean lower rates for em ployers. The door would be left wide open for the pres ent 2.7 percent rate to remain where it is or even be in creased. Additional payments from employees could easily build up a fund to be further exploited to suit the whims of Oregon's“ Little Government” within the state government. Another factor, which almost all thinking employees realize right along with their employers, is that their net take-home pay is the basis of their salaries and the greater the multitude of government agencies dipping into the pay-check, the higher the gross pay must be to compensate for the innumerable rake-offs for various departments, bureaus or commissions. It has been estimated that Oregon’s unemployment beneficiaries include between 12 and 22 percent who have voluntarily left good paying jobs. Such recipients of welfare payments from what was intended as unem ployment insurance funds are hurting those entitled to unemployment funds when they lose jobs through no fault of their own. The "something-for-nothing” group is not entirely to blame for their attitude if thev have not been taught the basic difference between right and wrong. The un employment compensation commission must share part of the blame because its representatives have been known to encourage free-loaders and to assist them in working out “schemes” to draw benefits. , Oregon’s statute pertaining to unemployment funds and amended by the last legislature is often interpreted to mean the opposite of the intent of the legislature. Such loose twisting of sections of the law helps account for unemployment statistics that fail to present a true picture to the public. The unemployment compensation commission is en tirely too proud of its statistics showing the amount of money it handles and the huge figures it releases on the “unemployment situation.” One could assume this com mission is an industry boasting of its increased sales volume over the previous year. Changes are necessary in the statute, but it should be for the benefit of the state and its people as a whole— wage earners and employers alike—and not for the benefit of the free-riders and those social workers who could easily kill the goose that lays the golden eggs To escape comment or criticism, do nothing, be nothing, say nothing.
