The plan is to have an employment and social insurance commission with headquarters at Ottawa. This comâ€" mission will administer the act, providâ€" ing for the payment of benefits to all entitled thereto, and also secking to secure work for those out Oof emplcyâ€" ment and generally devising ways and means of meeting the unemployment situation of the day. Though the commission will coâ€"operâ€" ate to relieve unemployment, it is derstood that unemployment relief will still remain a responsibility of the proâ€" vinces and the municipalities. This means that present methods of relievâ€" ing distress will continue until the unâ€" employment insurance act has Oopporâ€" tunity to get working smoothly and even after it is in full force the muniâ€" cipal and provincial powers will ke exâ€" pected to deal with cases not coverecd by the new act. Insurable persons under the new act will be those over the age of 16 years of either sex, who were engaged by contract <r by oral agreement, either on a time or a pieceâ€"work basis, inâ€" cluding those employed outside Canâ€" ada by Canadian employers and who When it is noted that the bill introâ€" duced by Hon. Mr. Bennett takes up 37 printed pages of Hansard, seven pages being required for the schedules alone, it will be seen that the bill in its enâ€" tirety can not be published in its full form. A review of the bill is herewith as follows:â€" The bift follows very largely the model of the British Employment Inâ€" surance Act, though there are some important modifications to meet Canâ€" adian conditions and to avoid objecâ€" tions raised against the British bill by the Royal Commission that investigated that act.

Bennett has introducâ€" ed his Employment and Social TInsurâ€" ance bill, planned to inaugurate unemâ€" ployment insurance in Canada, and beâ€" ing the first of the major reform measâ€" ures that Hon.

The benefits to individual adult workâ€" ers during their period of involunâ€" tary idleness will average around $6.00 per week. There is a considerable list of ocâ€" cupations that are excepted and that accordingly will not make contributions to the funds nor receive benefits. The excepted employments include agriculâ€" ture, teaching, fishing, lumbering. banking and financial businesses, govâ€" ernment employees, police, army and navy, agents and casual workers. Railway employees come under the inâ€" surance scheme but sailors and fliers d> not. were insurable under the act before they left Canada. The benefits under the act are to be paid out of funds contributed equally by the workers and the employers, with the Government adding oneâ€"fifth to the total of the cther two. Some of the figures showing how the act works in respect to the various contributions are given as follsws:â€"A man worker aged 21 years or over will contribute 25 cents a week, his employer, 25 cents a week, and the Government 10 cents a week. A woman worker aged 21 years wi‘l contribute 21 cents, the emâ€" ployer 21 cents and the Government 8.4 cents per week. Workers under 21 years will contribute as follows:â€"18 to 20 years, men, 18 ceonts; women, 15 cents; 17 years, boys, 11 cents; girls, 9 cents; 16 years, boys 7 cents; girls, 6 cents.

Living in a log cabin, the"young bride waited each day to hear the whir of the engine before putting sn lunch and dinner. One noon there was no sound of wings, evenin gand night passed, and it was not until the next day that a search party discovered the forced landing spot of the flier after they had passed it a dozen times, in a maze of lakes and little islands.
