Watt, Manager of the Local Employment and Claims Office, with respect to the Order-in-Council pas- sed recently by 'the Federal Govern- ment to provided insurance coverage for workers, who would normally earn less, than $2,000 a. year, but whose earnings, in certain specified instances, are now in excess of that amount. Under the Unemplayment insurance Act such workers would be excepted from making contributions to the in- surance fund and, therefore, would be deprived of benefits should they be- come unemployed. Many employees who it was intend- ed should be insured under the Act are now earining over $2,000 and thus being excepted. Stepping up of war industries has been the cause and hence the Government decided upon immediate action by Order-in-Council under the War Measures Act. In a radio address recently, Hon. Humphrey Mitchell, Minister of Lab- ^our, outlined the provisions 'of the Order-in-Council. The order ,provides that persons who are in insurable em- ployment and otherwise eligible will be insured against unemployment:- (1). if their rate of reniuneration exceeds in value two thousand dollars a year by reason of the payment of a cost of living bonus, or (2). if, in the •case of persons paid on art hourly basis, the basic rate of reinuneration does not, exceed ninety cents per hour, or (3). if the rate of remuneration ex- ceeds in value two thousand dollars a year by reason of an increase in work- ing hours or overtime caused by changed industrial conditions remitting from the state of war, or (4). if their remuneration exceeds in value two thousand dollars a year by reason of an increase in basic wage rates which have come into efefct since June 30th, 1941, or (5). if their rate of remuneration ex- ceeds in value two thousand dollars a yeate for any reason 'which in the opinion of the .Unemployment Insur- ance Commission is a result of the state of war now existing. The Order also provides that the Unemployment Insurance Advisory Committee, a body made up of repre- sentatives of employers and workers. and created to advise the Commission and the Government, shall investigate the whole question of the $2,000 limit and recommend a permanent course of action. Of necessity, some time- must elapse before the Committee can. report. In the meantime the Order provides immediate protection for these workers. 20. Grind the teeth . 21. Whip 22. Weapon 24.
