LAW (5 DESIGNED 10 GUARANTEE JOBS Bill Written by Economist and Pending in Legislature Pro- vides Compensation for Loss of Work (By United Press) MADISON, Wis, March 19. — “Guaranteed’ a job, the American workman will not be troublesome.” “The feeling of insecurity as to the permanency of the job is the princi- pal cause of labor unrest.” This in brief summarizes the opin- fon of Prof. John R. Commons, noted economist of the University of Wis- consin. The state of Wisconsin has been asked to incorporate Prof. Commons’ views in a law. A bill is now pend- ing in the legislature, written under Prof. Commons’ direction, which in- sures workmen compensation in case of loss of employment. The pill is generally known as an unemployment insurance measure but its primnry purpose is to guarantee the workman his job. The fate of the bill cannot be fore- told. The measure accepts the sweep- ing principle that the liability for un- employment rests solely upon the em- ployer, The state, under the provi- sions of the bill, operates free em- ployment offices and assists employ- ¢rs in finding jobs for men dropped from their payrolls. Until such jobs are found employers must pay idle workmen and women $1.50 per day for each day of idleness and 75 cents a day for employes under the age of 18 years. ‘Workmen must have worked for one or more employers six months be- fore they are entitled to compensa- ~ tion. They must be capable, available for employment and unable to obtain suitable jobs. No employe is re- quired to work where there is a lock- out or strike. Non-employment in- surance begins the third day after the loss of a job and must be paid weekly. 3 ‘The bill does not apply to farmers, + canning factories, state, cities, towns, {villages and school districts. Private employers working less than three men are also exempted. Employes having private incomes in excess of $500 annually are excluded. Employers are required to payments of liabilities in a mutual in- surance company, under the control $ of the Compensation nsurance Bond. Employers are barred from deductini insure employes, Neither can employers and employes make a valid agreement to waive Mabilities. Employes cannot obtain compensa: tion for more than thirteen weeks ci any one year. BETTER SEAVIGE CONFERENGE OF ANLROAD HELD Chicago & Northwestern Officials of Western Divisions Attend; Business Shows Increase Ea premiums from the pay ot! A meeting of the Wyoming division freight service committee of the Northwestern railway was held yes- terday. Many prominent out of town railroad officials were present and took part in the discussion of means for perfecting freight service, espec- ially along the’ Wyoming line. Var- fous matters pertaining to freight service were taken up and action taken to correct such defects as have appeared. It was brought out in the meeting, that business over the Wyoming divi- sion is holding its own and even In- creasing in some instances, which nat- urally attracts the attention of the railroads. This report is very grat- {fying when compared with general conditions over the country as a whole. It was further stated that losses from pilfering and rough hand- ling of freight have recently been re- duced to the minimum and that cars. are moving schedule time quite reg- ularly. Officials from out of town were: C. H. Reynolds, assistant general sup- erintendent of Norfolk; W. C. John- son, supervisor of freight service, of Chicago; K. E. Drebert. freight in- spector of Chadron; and R. A. Gul- hen, inspector for the N. W. and L. Gureau of Crawford, Nebraska.

A picture made in Engiana with an all English cast but directed by American methods, is “The Call of Youth,” which is showing at the Iris theater the last times today. Prob- ably one of the most interesting fea- tures of the picture is the typical English uctions which are seldom truly portrayed on the screen. ‘The popular Alice Brady and the equally popular Vernon Bteel will be seen in “Out of the Chorus” at the Iris on Sunday only. The hero of the picture, Vernon Steel, has been playing the role of villain in many of his pictures but critics prophecy that from now on, Mr. Steel will be the matinee {¢oi, and lead. The story of the picture is, that the-aristcratic New York youth elopes with a chorus girl and encounters great family opposition. After he has decided that his wife is untrue to him, he turns against her and only after she has saved him from con- viction on a murder charge, he learns that his suspicions were groundless. The, Dunbar Opera company will present the comic opera ‘Robin Hood" at the Iris on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday, the love- ly Wanda Gawley will be seen in a delightful comedy of domestic life circling around a giddy little wife whose love of selling things to the junk man, gets her into a peck of trouble involving the jealous wife from the apartment upstairs and a neighbor artist. Humor, and beauty mainty in the leading lady, make the picture one of the successes of the season, William Fox will present the star, Louise Lovely, in “While the Devil Laughs” which will be shown at the Iris on Friday and Saturday, It is a story of the underworld telling of the regeneration of a girl who rose from a criminal to splendid woman- hood, ,‘This is Miss Lovely’s third starring picture for Fox and is said to be her best.
