A. Bollmann, manager of the state employment office branch here.

The maximum period for which compensation checks are being paid this year is 16 weeks. The number of weeks checks are paid depends upon how much an unemployed person earned in an insured job during 1933. "Some workers who filed claims for benefits early in the summer now are using the last benefits to which they are entitled this year." Mr. Bollmann said. "All they can do now is wait until late next March to make a new applica tion for benefits." Will Use New Basis starting next April wages earned in insured work in 1939 will be used in determining the unemployment compensation of an applicant.

Compensation will be paid only to those workers who have earned S225 or more at insured work in 1939. Insured work usually is employment by a business, industrial, construction or service firm that has eight or more workers. "The amount of money a worker can get in unemployment compensation during a 12-month period known as the benefit year is based upon his earnings in insured work in the previous calendar year." Mr. Bollmann said. "The workers' benefit year extends from April 1 nf one year to March 31 of thej following year.

How Figure Determined In determining the total amount a worker may draw in job insurance in a benefit year, two calculations are made. First, a figure is taken representing one-fourth of his total earnings for the previous calendar year. Second, a figure is taken representing one-twentieth of his earnings in the three-month period in which his earnings were highest. The second figure is known as the workers "weekly benefit amount." The total which may be paid in compensation will be either one-fourth of total earnings for the year, or 16 times the weekly benefit amount, the lowest of the twoi totals being paid. James J.

But the port remains his principal hobby, with the Chicago White Sojf his chief concern. At the age of 19 Peewee received a trial with St. Paul, a Sox farm club, whose lineup included Charley Dressen of Decatur.

A special substitute for dynamite, used because a jar will not set it off. the explosive was about two inches in diameter and a foot long, with a fuse on one end. It had been tamped tightly into a hole drilled into the coal but had failed to explode at the mine.

Mr. Coate discovered it last night when he broke open a large chunk of Eastern Kentucky coal with an ax preparatory to putting it into his furnace. Thrown loosely into a furnace it probably would not have exploded, but confined in the hole into which it had been packed it might have blown up the Coate home. $31,000 Asked In Auto Crash Charles Six. employe in the dis trict WPA office here, today was named defendant in a S31.000 dam-j age suit filed in the Christian coun ty circuit court in Taylorville.

The eight other sewers and watermains which will pa.s through the junction were built anywhere from 15 to 40 years ago and are being realigned, accord ing to officials, to simplify control and provide easier access for repairs. The new sewers to be joined are the seven-foot upper Boradway unit nearly finished by Contrac tors File Collins and the Birt Bros. Construction and the lower Broadway section 14 feet high and 11 feet wide built by the J. M. Driscoll Co.

The smaller sewers which will pass through the junction include a four-foot Cantrell street sewer, a 24-inch state highway drain, two 15-inch storm water sewers, a rehabilitated 12-inch watermain, an eight-inch cast iron force main, and a nine-foot transition sewer.
