rough That would pay 1.909.000 work-

all. We hope that it will never have to
be used, but it's there if it should be
needed
The TEC report shows that the
average check so far this year has
been 316.93, up slightly from the 115.15
average for the same period of 1951
There has been more unemployment
during 1952 than during the same pe-
riod of 1951. or at least there has been
more unemployment among people
qualified to file for and get unemploy-
ment compensation. Actually, there’s
no real reason why men and women
who work for smaller businesses
shouldn't have this same protection.
Small business benefit* Just as the
working people benefit.
So far this year, 35,409 first pay-
ments have been made in Texas. The
figure for the same seven months of
1951 to 27,790. This indicates the In-
crease in unemployment this year
over last.
Turning the picture around, you find
that fewer people have gone to the
Texas Employment Commission of-
fices looking for jobs this year than
last. The total for the first seven
months of 1951 was 2,655.611 visits
and 310,791 actual new applications

erection to start November 1. Many
things can happen to prevent this from
happening. I surely hope that the
schedule can be carried out
