A. Huehn Elected President Many of the Occupations Excluded In Canadian Act. LifeLong New Dundee (By Chromicie Correspondent) up $9.95 10.50 to 13.95 10.95 to 14.75 $15.95 Unemployment Insurance Act. The percentage of â€" persons brought within the scope of the Canadian Act is about the same as the number who were insured in 1935 in Great Britain after the plan had been operating there for twentyâ€"five years. In order that the insurance plan might run smoothly at the outset those occupations whose inclusion would have created difficulty in the operation of the plan have been excluded. Mr. Boyer explains that many of the occupations are excluded in the Canadian Act because they are of a highly seasonal nature or because they could not be easily administerâ€" ed under an insurance plan. Agriculture has been excluded for both these reasons. The seasonal nature of agriculture requires labourers to work steadily in some seasons and to be partially unemâ€" vloyed in others. Farm workers are isolated and scattered over the whole of Canada. Some of them are transient workers, and many of them receive payment in kind. Under such conditions inspection and other administrative duties could be carried out only under great difficulty and at considerable expense. Consequently, for the lfime being at least, agricultural workers are not insurable. In the case of the domestic serâ€"| vants, there> are administrative Aifficulties of another kind. Domes-i tic servants employed in clubs, and dcmestic servants employed in any trade or business carried on for gain are regarded as insured perâ€" sons. Persons employed in domesâ€" ‘tic service in rooming or boarding ‘houses which ordinarily accommoâ€" Ldate more than four paying guests ‘are insurable. | TTUAKRY . o OBITORRY Samuel Crawford .
