A story typical of the mafiyV
lt°Unempio^Mec^penMtion
runs roughly like this: A tobacco
warehouse- group needed i? la
borer fe^a tefr^hours one after*
A3fei^wj^sa”twd the ^labor
foreman of me warehouse re
portedly rebeived a fprm to sign
testifying that fhisparticular in
dividual had been fired, thereby
making him eligible-for Unem
ployment Compensation. The
story conchides; dramatically,- but
-not factually, -with the assertion
that this fellow who worked a
dialf day was eligible to draw
several hundrdfctiollars in the
form of UnTiWKiment Com
pensation. ' .

per year income and there is a
fixed scale of payments based on
the . earnings of the individual
during the previous year.
A person can draw this com
pensation for 20 weeks or if
partially employed he may draw
for a longer period, since during
partial employment he may not
draw the maximum benefits to
his credit.
The maximum amount of mon
ey any individual can draw in
any one year is $500, and to get
this he must have earned above
