"In the corresponding period of 1942, only 4,615 employers were added to the ‘liable‘ list. In other words, the number of employers starting business in Illinois, or increasâ€" ing their pay rolls to six or . more workers, decreased by 10 per cent for the two periods concerned. ‘ Fewer Firms Added Under Jobless Act, Number Dropped, U p " Even more revealing is the numâ€" ber of firms going out of business or having a reduction in the number of employees sufficient to allow terâ€" mination of liability under the law. A total of 66 per cent more removals from the roll of liable employers was effected during the first nine months of 1942 than for the same period in 1941â€"5215 and 3,144 respectively," Murphy reported.

Part of the effect of the .war on Iilinois business is reflected in figures showing fewer . employers . becoming subject to the Illinois Unemployment Compensation act while the number of employers being‘removed from the subject tolls is increasing, State Diâ€" rector of Labor Francis B. Murphy revealed today. t * Employers of Siz or More Under the lllinois law most emâ€" ployers who employ six or more perâ€" sons in any 20 weeks during a calenâ€" dar year are liable for the year in which this. employment experfence occurred and the year following. Once subject, employers cannot terminate their liability until after they have had a year in which there were no 20 weeks with six or more persons in employment. Since employers not meeting the "six in 20 weeks" provision are not subject to the act unless they volunâ€" tarily elect to cover their workers, the figures quoted do not reveal the full impact of the war economy on small business, Murphy pointed out. est â€"college â€"will: presentâ€"sheirâ€"aunual. midâ€"winter concert on Tuesday eveâ€" "Today everyones‘ wish is that the war will be brought to a speedy close," said.
