Employers
Pleading
Ignorance
Although a law making
some employers of domestic
or farm worker liable for
unemployment insurance
taxes has been in effect since
January 1, 1978, many of
the employers are still
pleading ignorance of the
law .As a result, a spokesman
for the North Carolina
Employment Security Com
mission said many of the
employers involved are fac
ed with interest and penalty
charges that could be avoid
ed by timely payments.
Warren Wittmer, director
of the ESC’s Unemployment
Insurance Division, issued a
reminder on the change in
the law. “It’s important for
employers who may be
covered by this law to con
tact the ESC as promptly as
possible to determine their
tax liability,"Wittmer said.
“Field tax auditors are sta
tioned atESC offices
throughout the state and are
available to assist employers
who have questions about
whether they’re liable for UI
taxes.”
The change in the law ex
tending unemployment in
surance coverage to some
domestic statutes governing
the federal-state insurance
program.
Any employer of
domestic workers in private
homes,college clubs or col
lege fraternities and
sororities who paid $1,000
or more in wages in any
calender quarter in the cur
rent or preceding calendar
year is required to pay
unemployment insurance
taxes to the commission.
Farmers who paid wages
voluntary contributions to
help fund our Hunter Safety
Program,” said Dick
Hamilton, assistant ex
ecutive director of the Com
mission.
“Originally, the bill would
have increased the fees for
hunting licenses by 50 cents
to pay for the Hunter Safety
Program, but that measure
did not gain strong support.
Attention, bass fisher
man!
If you haven’t already
discovered it, two Duke
Power Company lakes,
Wylie and Norman, provide
the best largemouth bass
fishing of any reservoirs in
North Carolina.
That’s the official word
from the North Carolina
Wildlife Resources Commis
sion.
The catch rated for
largemouth bass came out of
a survey by the commission
of 85 Bass Anglers Sport
sman’s Society clubs, four
wildlife clubs and 110 in
dividuals.
The results were tabulated
on the basis of how many
bass were caught each hour
for sounds and bays, reser
voirs, ponds and rivers, lakes
and streams.
Lake Wylie ranked first
among the reservoirs with
.41 legal-sized fish caught
and hour, compared with .33
for Norman.
The best fishing was in
the ponds with lakes the
worst place to fish. The
catch also varied with the
seasons. The best time to
fish in the reservoirs was in
the spring, but fall was the
best season for fishing in the
sounds and bays, lakes,
streams and rivers. The best
fishing in ponds was during
the winter.
Some
fund this important pro
gram.
The Hunter Safety Pro
gram currently costs
$95,000 per year and is
funded through license
revenues and federal mat
ching funds.”

tified 149,000 students
