TeOchers Don’t Get LJm emp loym e n t/ Although federal statutes provide unemployment insur ance coverage to school employees, most school work ers without jobs thjs summer will be denied unemployment payments, according to the Employment Security Com mission. Both federal and State unemployment insurance law denies benefits to school workers who have “reason able assurance" that they will return to work at the end of the summer. The law disqualifying the school workers applies to non professionals as well as teachers. In Spruce Pine and Burns ville, Manager Jim Acuff of the local Employment Securi ty Commission Job Service office says that school em ployees with written, oral, or implied contracts or agree ments to return to school employment do not qualify for unemployment benefits. North Carolina requires claimants to be unemployed through no fault of their own, be able to worlf, be available for work and actively seeking jobs to be eligible for unemployment payments. Acuff says that employees who have agreements to return to work with schools after the summer is over do not meet these eligibility requirements. The Special Unemploy ment Assistance Act, passed by Congress at the outset of the recession, extends unem ployment insurance coverage to workers not covered by state laws. There’s currently a bill before the General As sembly providing coverage for state and local government workers, but, if passed, it would not change the eligibil ity requirements to draw benefits, according to the ESC. Cars and good times are fine, but | land dealings are what stir his adren alin. 1 | “Real estate is the i basis of all wealth," he reflected with deep down mountain conviction. "I re membered my daddy saying. ‘Son, they don’t make any more land, but .they keep right on makin’ babies.’ " If the auction brochures gave the impression off his entire land empire, that’s not quite right. 7 \ J “1 ve still got a few little tracts around, arty way, that I fongot to put dowlj (on the auction /list)," he mu sea, snmling slyly. ‘>Yeah, I’m keeping a few choice jjteces around Reprlntefi from J THE CHARLOTTE OBSERVER / Thurs., May 26, 1977 )j Men’s 3 pc.
