Hi-Y Council Meeting Held tn Torrance

Representatives from Redondo, Lomlta and Torrance .Hi-Y and Tri Hl-T groups met Monday evening for their first inter-com­ munity meeting. Forty officers and advisors representing the 200 Hi-Y and Tri Hi-Y members In the area inaugurated plans for regular inter-club council meetings. These council sessions would plan an over-all program for the three comunities as well as developing high standards of club efficiency. Officers and ad­ visors will meet jointly once a month. One of the first activi­ ties sponsored by these repre­ sentatives will be a Hi-Y. Tri Hi-Y winter picnic, to be held on Lincoln's birthday. Members of the council expressed the be­ lief that by bringing the youth of the surrounding communities together for a well supervised activity, friendships between UK youth, and interests in the van ous community problems' woul- evolve as focal points for fi ture activities.

This is one of the first a tempts for such inter-comm nity youth plans and from Uu expressions of those attendini the council should fill an often

^xpressed need. With the retirement of his" Jay Stroh, newly elected presi

father, Franklin H. Wentworth, j dent of the Torrance Hi^Y wasChapman Wentworth becam.

Wentworth and Paul Bry, Frencf^designer whose work has been displayed throughout the world and depicted in exclusive magazines, have been friends for some time, and they worked together on the design and man­ ufacturing procedure of the Broadbent line.

Some 30 additional workers arc 'being added at the outset to handle the new furniture line

irding to reports worth from E. D. Taytor, and the plant is approaching1 fufl production in the line.

Longren was the first to come out with scooters at the end of World War n, adapting surplus aircraft materials to the famous "Shooting Star." Continuing in manufacture of the scooter, some 13,000 were sold during the 194fl Christmas buying season.

Resurvey Of Unemployment Program In State Explained In New Series

(Editor's note: Recent changes Deluding the creation and opera-In Uje California Unemploy­ ment Insurance system, in­ cluding addition of the dis. ability Insurance program and the return of the employment service to the state, have re­ sulted In a need to resurvey the entire unemployment com­ pensation program. In coop­ eration with the California De­ partment of Employment, the Torrance Herald prcwnts a series of four articles dealing with the over-all program. The Introductory article disciuges the general quratlon, 'What U Unemployment Insurance?") Unemployment insurance is

system of social insurance th: provides wage earners wil some income during periods c unemployment. It provides fi collection of contributions t create a fund'for the paymeni of . benefits to digital- Joyed workers. It does not a:

sure benefits for every unei toyed person but only foi

those who are regularly attach- o the labor market, who arc ble and willing to work am

who are genuinely unemployi "t makes no attempt to proteci unemployable persons. Most in "ustrial employees are insured under the joint Federal - state ystem. The risk of unemployment

-ne of the most serious risks age earners face and, in-ee industrial society, some ui mployment is Inevitable. Fu hermore, unemployment is oni

the major risks faced b; community as a whole be

:ause of its effect upon ;eneral economy. The cases of uncmploymcn

arc numerous and varied. Man; ffcct comparatively oups for relatively short per-

ods. Most spectacular is the unemployment of a general bust-ess depression.Unemployment whether for

hort periods or long, has ai conomic effect upon the wagi arnet- and his family. Whei nemployment is widespread, or

long duration, the result; lay be disastrous for the fam

and the community. PubJii r private charity may be ceded to keep families from tarving. The insurance method

tibn of the state employment seivice. The act is administered by the State department of-Em ployment, subject to federal re­ quirements. Administrative fundi are provided by the federal gov­ ernment from revenue obtained by the payroll tax on certain, employees. . At best, a worker's benefits compensate for only part of the wages he loses when he is un­ employed, and for only a limited time. Bat that Income helps him meet living expenses. At th< same time, unemployment in surance serves to maintain pur­ chasing power when layoffs or shutdowns stop earnings for many families, locally or nation ally. It also serves employers by enabling wage earners to re­ main in communities where they will be needed again instead of scattering aimlessly in search of work, and thus assists to main tain an effective labor force.

Unemployment insurance is no substitute for a job. H is a first line of defense when suitable work is lacking. In conjunction with the employment service, it plays a positive role in helping unemployed workers to get jobs and, if there is no suitable work available for them, in helping to conserve morale and work skills until new jobs arc- found.

Fundamentally, unemployment insurance helps sustain con­ fidence among wage earners and employers alike. It lessens the reduction in purchasing power which accompanies unemploy­ ment and which, frequently, de­ velops a contagion of fear that has a paralyzing effect upon the general ecenomy. The result is a downward spiral that is, at least in part, psychological. Knowledge that some inconie will be maintained tends to counter­ act this depressive tendency.
