A THE JERSEY JOURNAL, Jersey City 6, N. J. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1746 Sick Benefit Idea Up For Hearing Some Employers Not Ready For Decision TRENTON- Public hearings by the New Jersey Commission on Postwar, Economic take Welfare advantage on pro- of $182 million available to the stateh by the end of the year for a cash sickness hencfits plan were opened today. A plan proposed by the sion to the 1946 legislature for study purposes contemplated a pub-1 licly supervised system of paying' workers for time lost through illness rather than a publicly operated plan. The recommendation for allowing private sickness insurance accounts like the present system of workmen's compensation for Accidents was advanced hy the com-1 mission hefore it WAS learned thei federal government which holds do-, posits of the unemployment compensation fund paid in by employes! would make the money available.
to New Jersey for establishment of sick henefits. When Justice Howard Eastwood announced today's hearing, ho estimated those funds would reach the $182 million mark by the, end of 1946. Labor groups express opposition to the original plan permitting private sickness insurance under state supervision, and main argument at today's hearing is expected to center around this point rather than the advisability of a sick benefits plan as such.

It fears that legislation will be introduced for payment of sick benefits! under A. plan similar to that used by the State Unemployment Compensation Commission.
Two states, Rhode Island and California, already have adopted illness payments. The state chamber's greatest. fcar, is that Now Jersey may attempt to follow the Rhode Island plan. Some members of the state. chamber say the big objection to the Rhode Island method of payment is that it gives employecs' more money to stay at home claiming illness that they could possibly! earn on the joh.
Naturally such ay situation induces in large employers 4 of labor A staggering case of the jitters. This claim is denied by cmployes. The State Chamber of Commerce appears to he convinced that any general plan for sick benefits should he privately operated.
