Lutz had worked at Automatic Button Co. where her husband was foreman and boss in three layoff instances. She claimed she was laid off due to slow work, another witness said she quit because she was nervous. The commission held that quitting in those circumstances did not entitle her to benefits. Eligible claimants may receive up to 26 dollars a week for up to 20 weeks. The Lutzes now live in Muscatine.
