Annual Report of State Department Of Employment Shows Heavy Activity
SACRAMENTO, Apr. 6 — The California Department of Employment placed about 809,000 persons in jobs, collected more than $213,000,000 in employer and wage earner taxes, and paid out slightly more than $131,000,000 in unemployment insurance and disability benefits last year.
These highlights of the department's activities were made known today when Director James G. Eryant released the department's annual report for 1952.
Slightly more than half of the total placements were in nonfarm jobs, with manufacturing occupations leading with 135,000 placements and wholesale and retail trade following with 98,000. These two industrial classifications accounted for 54 percent of the total nonfarm placements.
Unemployment insurance payments totaled almost $101,700,000 an increase of 7 percent over the 1951 total. Benefits were paid for a total of 4.6 million weeks of unemployment.
Eighteen percent of the 967,000 claimants who filed initial claims for unemployment insurance drew no benefits during the year, either because they found employment or left the labor market immediately after filing their claims. The average length of compensated unemployment was 5.2 weeks.
A total of 143,653 claimants was disqualified during the year. Voluntarily quitting employment without good cause was the leading reason for disqualification, followed by nonavailability for work.
The department successfully prosecuted 631 persons who had received benefits to which they were not entitled. Only one person who was brought to trial was acquitted. Conviction of fraud resulted in the imposition of fines or jail sentences, or both, restitution of money received and the loss of benefit rights.
Disability insurance payments during 1952 totaled $26,500,000 for basic disability benefits and $3,350,000 for hospital benefits. These payments were 20 percent and 27 percent, respectively, more than the amounts paid during 1951.
Employer contributions to the unemployment fund totaled almost $177,000,000. This was a 3 percent decrease from the all-time high recorded in 1951. A lower average tax rate—2.05 percent for 1952 as against 2.37 percent for 1951—more than offset an increase in total employment. About 73,000 employers of a total of 224,000 qualified for rates lower than the general rate of 2.7 percent, 43,000 qualifying for the minimum rate of 1 percent.
Contributions paid by wage earners to the State Disability Fund during the year totaled slightly more than $36,000,000 about 7 percent more than in 1951.
Despite the slightly lower revenue and higher benefit payments, the unemployment fund balance increased during the year by 13 percent to $765,500,000. Included in this total was about-$117,600,000 which was available for transfer to the state disability fund.
The disability fund also increased during the year, gaining from $115,800,000 at the end of 1951 to $125,000,000 at the close of 1952.
Dressed in an elegant red and green suit, Pinocchio puppet mask of the Anaheim children's library, celebrated his 24th birthday last week. 125 dolls and more youthful owners attended a party in his honor at the library where he reigns royally among the books. Since his birthday falls on April 1st, the children made appropriate dune caps while waiting for a party-goers to assemble. Guest of honor was Pinocchio's girl friend Gretchen, a wobden headed beauty who lives with Mrs. Mable Jones.
The party brought forth some wonderful old dolls and many gorgeous modern creations. Boys contributed interesting stuffed animals and a variety of toys. After Pinocchio's story was re-told games were played and refreshments enjoyed.
Colorful Character
This colorful character was born in 1929 when the Macmillian Book Company brought out a splendid new edition of the famous Pinocchio legend. About five hundred jointed wooden and paper maché reproductions were sent to libraries up and down the California coast. As far as librarian Miss Elva Haskett can determine, Anaheim's Pinocchio is the only one that remains.
He has had rather a stormy career, participating in the city's major catastrophies. His adventures started in 1933. When the earthquake struck, he was perched on a shelf-upstairs in the library where books for youngsters were kept at that time. The sway jigged him, then jarred him crazily and finally threw him to the floor where he suffered a cracked head.
The puppet was patched up temporarily but when he was invited to participate in the day

When the earthquake struck, he was perched on a shelf upstairs in the library where books for youngsters were kept at that time. The sway jigged him, then jarred him considerably and finally threw him to the floor where he suffered cracked head.
The puppet was patched up temporarily but when he was invited to participate in the doo show given by the P.T.A. of George Washington School several years later, his guardian Miss Haskett decided he had better be fixed properly. He was admitted to a local doll hospital for the majority.

Pinocchio Celebrates 24th Birthday at Public Library
ed in an elegant red and white, Pinocchio, puppet masse the Anaheim children's life-celebrated his 24th birthday week. 125 dolls and mice owners attended a party honoring at the library where he is royally among the books. His birthday falls on April 3rd. Children made appropriate caps while waiting for all owners to assemble. Guest of honor was Pinocchio's girl friend, an wobden headed beauty queen with Mrs. Mable Jones, partly brought forth some old dolls and many gorgo modern creations. Boys conceived interesting stuffed animals and a variety of toys. After Pinocchio's story was re-told were played and refreshenjoyed.
Colorful Character
colorful character was born when the Macmillian Book Boy brought out a splendid edition of the famous Pinocchio. About five hundred wooden and paper mache actions were sent to librarians and down the California As far as librarian Miss Maskett can determine, Ana-Pinocchio is the only one mains.
As had rather a stormy participation in the city's catastrophies. His adventured in 1933. When the big make struck, he was perched self-upstairs in the library books for youngsters were that time. The swag jig, then jarred him consid- and finally threw him to or where he suffered a head.
Pinuppet was patched up fairly but when he was in to participate in the doll surgery necessitated by his old wound.
Flood
Then the rains came. On the day Pinocchio was to be released from the hospital, high waters prevented Miss Haskett from call n for him. Hospital attendants, Mr. and Mrs. David Swanson thought it best nto leave him another night to the perils of a napkin cot and so set out for town with Pinocchio in the back seat of their car. By then, the Santa Ana river had over flowed its banks in earnest and the car was swept away. Mr. and Mrs. Swanson lost their lives.
When rescue workers reached the overturned car, they com Pinocchio literally up to his neck in mud. Luckily his quaint papache head was out of the water and quite dry.
He lost a leg and his pants in that catastrophe but expert treatment made him as good as new once again.
Doll Show
The wooden boy became a man of the world when he attended the doll show in Ogden, Utah, to commemorate pioneer days there. As an exact replica of the story book character, he delighted the children of Ogden and they took him to their hearts as they have no other doll before or since. They came to see him in droyes, and wishing to do something especially nice for him, brought him some good luck stones from the Utah hills. These four well polished pebbles are now in the Junior Library for little folks to wish on. Through the years, Anaheim children have discovered that unselfish wishes usually come true but selfish wishes do not.
Pinocchio has a fat scrap book filled with newspaper clippings of his exploits and cards and letters.
THERE'S SOMETHING for everyone at the General Motors Mo-rama of 1953, scheduled for April 11-19 at Shrine Convention Hall Los Angeles. Younger visitors generally are enthralled by approximate 80 engineering and research exhibits, like this supersensitive instrument which Fisher Body engineers use to detect faint vibrations in an automobile. The young lady, holding a detector against her heart, actual can watch traces of her heart beat on a recording device.
Of special interest to women are a ballet production and a "Fashil First" display of women's dress creations fashioned by leading designer For the men—and everyone else—the admission-free Motorama presents its much-discussed seven "dream cars" as well as 1953 GM producti models.
