Trumbull Discussion of proposed amendments to the constitution occupled virtually all the time of the afternoon session not given to discussion of the ballot and election of officers. : A proposal for the elimination: of unemployment by insurance methods ‘was broached befors the league by Mri Florence Kelly, executive secretary, yesterday. The measure advocated was the Hu- ber bill, which was considered in the Wisconsin legislature recently. It provides for the taxing of em- ployers throughout the country, ex- cept in domestic service and on the farms, of an insurance premium based on the labor turnovers of the indu: try, which will provide for the e ploye dropped until he {8 able to ol tain another position. If the labor turnover of a plant is low, the pre- mium will be low, correspondingly. If the employe refuses a position offered him by an employment agency after being dropped, he ceases to receive the benefits of the insurance. Yesterday's session was executlve.
