UNEMPLOYMENT
AND
ITS
CURE.
Due
to
the
continuance
of
unusual
unemployment
in
Canada
requests
are
being
made
for
a
state
system
of
unemployment
insurance,
and
April
20,
the
prime
minister
announced
that
his
government
approved
in
principle
of
a
contributory
federal
system
of
unemployment,
sickness
and
invalidity
insurance,
provided
it
was
participated
in
by
all
provinces,
as
well
as
by
the
Dominion,
the
employers
and
the
employees,
says
tne
Nelson
News.
One
typical
scheme
which
has
been
put
forward,
based
on
benefits
of
$7
per
week
to
single
and
$16
to
married
men
(and
assuming
average
unemployment
of
140,000)
estimates
a
total
cost
of
$90,000,000.
This
sum
is
proposed
to
raise
as
follows:
(a)
$30,000,000
from
employers,
which
it
is
estimated
would
be
from
one
per
cent
to
two
pen
cent
on
the
wage
bill.
(b)
$30,000,000
from
employees,
which
would
mean
about
30c
per
week.
(c)
$15,000,000
from
the
Dominion.
(d)
$15,000,000
from
the
Provinces.
The
arguments
adduced
in
support
of
such
a
scheme
may
be
summarized
as
follows:
(1)
Industry
being
so
organized.
that
it
requires
a
reserve
army
of
workers
in
busy
times,
it
should
look
after
such
workers
in
slack
times.
$2)
Insurance-aginst,
unemployment
would
make
for
a
more
cortteNted'and
therefore
a
more
efficient
working
force.
(3)
The
present
methods
of
relief
are
haphazard
and
inefficient
and
tend
to
pauperize.
'
(4)
Unemployment
insurance
would
make
for
stability
by
maintaining
purchasing
power
in
bad
times.
(5)
It
would
provide
an
incentive
to
employers
to
regularize
employment
and
thus
prevent
unemployment.
As
against
these
arguments
it
is
urged:
(1)
That
unemployment
insurance
tends
to
sap
self-reliance
and
thrjft
and
to
create
a
class
of
unemployables.
(2)
That
it
checks
that
mobility
of
labour
which
is
so
essential,
particularly
in
a
young,
undeveloped
country.
(3)
That
being
impossible
of
application
to
agriculture
it
would
intensify
the
drift
from
country
to
town,
and
at
tne
same
time
add
appreciably
to
the
cost
of
goods
to
the
farming
community
which
would
be
excluded
from
its
benefits.
(4)
That
it
would
be
difficult
if
not
impossible
of
application
to
those
seasonal
occupations
where
the
bulk
of
unemployment
in
Canada-
occurs,
viz.,
building
and
construction,
lumbering,
shipping,
fishing
and
road-buildihg.

ably
to
increase
to
a
disastrous
extent
and
that
a
scheme
which
begins
actuarially
sound,
ends
as
a
millstone
on
the
neck
of
the
community.
The
present
method
of
meeting
the
unemployment
situation,
for
which
unemployment
insurance
is
advocated
as
a
substitute
may
be
described
as
follows:
(1)
Parliament
has
voted
an
unstated
sum
of
money
to
be
used
in
paying
such
proportion
of
the
cost
of
direct
relief
and
approved
public
works
as
may
be
agreed
upon
between
the
Dominion,
the
provinces
and
the
municipalities.
(2)
Employers
have
to
a
greater
extent
than
ever
before
endeavored
to
keep
a
maximum
of
men
in
at

part-time

called
more

with
the
prob-'

a
resolution
was
passed
requesting
the
government
to
provide
staples
of
living
for
boat-owning
fishermen
who
have
not
made
enough
during
the
past
Season
to
keep
themselves
and
who
are
hardly
ln
a
position
to
leave
their
boats
unwatched
and
go
to
the
relief
camps.
Another
resolution
was
passed
for
submission
to
the
game
department
requesting
that
unemployed
be
al-
i
lowed
to
shoot
game
for
food

be
ameliorated
whereby
it
may
be

persons
who
