Unemployment Corapens a 11 o n Commission last Thursday when 11,459 checks totaling $86,352.77 were written and sent out to un employed or partially unemploy ed workers in the state. Through last week the Com mission has paid out $4,379,- 540.47. included in the 578.685 checks issued tnrough that week. Nearly 200,000 individuals have been or are being paid benefits since the first check was issued January 29, 1938.

Whether the employment is part time, temporary, or perma nent, and although the employer has no other employes, a report of the employee’s wages together with his account number must be made to the Federal Government by the employer, explained Mr. Spruill.

Wages for temporary or part-time employment, no matter how small, will increase by that much the worker’s credit toward old-age benefits. It is therefore important to the employee that his wa^s re ported by his employer be identi fied by an account number so that they will be correctly recorded in his old-age insurance account.
