KEY SECURITY (DIE
Washington.— Labor’s League

Senate’s 81*2 vote for bigger and
better social security “an elec

The key social security vote
on an amendment by Sen.
William Know-land (R.t .Calif.).
His proposal was accepted.- 46-37.
The amendment would wreck
the entire unemployment com
pensation aection of the social
security pangram. The .federal
government helps states .finance
their unemployment compensa
tion program. That’s .to
make sure all workers get about
the same .help, no matter where
they live or when they’re un
employed.
But under Knowland’s scheme
each state .could set its owa un
employment compensation stan
dards. And .the federal govern
ment could do nothing about it.
The AFL is making an .effort
to have the amendment knocked

sion will be lax.
Local governments can keep
federal rent controls after De
cember 31 until June 30, 1951,
if they vote to do ao and so
advise the federal government.
Central and local labor unions
will be wise to begin now to
plan a campaign to have rent
controls extended in their cities.
Most APL members are still un
der federal rent controls and ro
moral of these curbs would mean
a sudden increase in family ex
penditures for millions of union
families throughout the country.
