Relief Fund Dries For Jobless GM Workers In Flint

In Flint Michigan the loss of a special SUB fund ends unemployment benefits for about 84 00 workers. GM employment at seven plants in the area has fallen nearly 20 000 since the energy crisis. The SUB program capped weekly pay at a third of regular earnings, cutting incomes and living standards for about 55 000 idled GM workers. City leaders warn summer will be tough as unemployment rises above 15 percent and tax revenue falls. Analysts note SUB payouts have topped 400 million since January 1974 with Chrysler facing a similar fate.
