Plans for the new freeway have it crossing the Columbia River from south Richland to just north of Road 111 in the Riverview area. The first interchange on the Junior Miss Christy Blankenship, Stites, Idaho, was selected from a fikeid of 10 as Junior Miss from Clearwater Valley High School where she Is a senior.

County commissioners thad asked for a partial interchange at the end of the bridge, but were told about a week ago that was impossible. More than 20 area residents this week appeared before the commission's regular meeting In the courthouse and asked for an interchange as close to the river as possible.

The commis. sinners voiced agreement and said they would work for something closer than Road 100. In testimony to the three commissioners, the president of the Ben Franklin Bridge Association, Jeff Dawson, said an interchange close to the river would make the surrounding area much more desirable for home sites. One estimate made to the commissioners indicated the value of an acre now priced at $6,000 would jump to $10,000 per lot. Commission Chairman Jack Williams said the group's concern is timely and that state highway officials still have time to consider its wishes before finalizing the freeway's design.

LEMON Chronicle Political Writer Business and labor agree there should be a change in the method of determining benefits to workers under the state industrial insurance law, regardless of whether private insurance companies are permitted to enter that field in Washington. Currently, under Washington's state monopoly law, wage replacement benefits to the injured worker are based on his marital status and the number of dependents he may have.

Differences Noted There is a difference of opinion on how much those benefits should be, however.

Ron Nutting, chairman of the AWB Workmen's Compensation Committee, said that, because the low paid worker receives the same dollar benefits as a skilled craftsman, there is no economic incentive for the former to return to productive capacity. However, he said, the skilled worker is penalized. Nutting claims the laws are intended to provide the injured workers with income benefits equivalent to 60 per cent to two-thirds of his wages. But, Washington's benefit structure is based on minimum wages, overlooking the fact that a man who earns more tends to have a higher financial obligation be. cause his standard of living is adjusted to earning capacity more than to the number of his dependents.

Lawrence Kenney, research director for the State Labor Council, said labor long has favored a program relating benefits to earnings and has sponsored and supported bills of that nature in the past. The Labor Council would endorse a minimum benefit for a single worker at 60 to 65 per cent of his personal earnings at the time of injury with an additional one or two per cent for each dependent. Warning Sounded Kenney observed the legislature probably would want to place a maximum on the dollar amount of benefits, but he added that they cannot be set at an unrealistically low figure. lie said many states have benefits set at two-thirds of wages, but the maximum benefit is so long that actual dollars received. more frequently than not, are less than half the stated percentage quoted.

The labor ani Industry spokesmen also agree that coverage should be extended to at least part of the estimated 350,000 persons in the state's work force who are without protection of the slate's workmen's compensation law. I lowever, Nutting sees extending coverage only as a part of an overall reshaping of the law which would include a choice for employers as to whether they continue under the state monopoly or pay premiums to the private insurance carriers, Kenney said the State Labor Council believes every working man arid woman should have the coverage, claiming records show that many of the occupations in the "sale" category injure more workers than those in hazardous employment. He said the labor organization particularly wants to see retail clerks tinier the protection of workmen's corn pen mit it in.
