Increase in 39 unemployment compensation in Pennsylvania
A departmental ruling by Secretary Ralph M. Bashore will raise benefits for several hundred thousand Pennsylvania workers in 1939 and beyond. Estimates indicate 12 to 15 million dollars in extra benefits for engine workers during 1939, with total fund receipts projected to exceed 18 million dollars from late 1988 quarter payments. The measure widens eligibility for those filing claims from January 23, 1939 for a second benefit period, potentially basing payments on earnings since January 1, 1937.

Compensaria benefits rules outlined for second benefit year
Bashore notes not all first year recipients qualify in the second benefit period. Eligibility hinges on earning sufficient base year wages under strict accounting. If base year earnings are lacking, no benefits are payable. Bustore cites Pennsylvania law and federal Social Security board certification, aligned with national support to expand Social Security Act benefits.
