Wider Coverage Os Unemployment Tax Changes Effective At First Os Year William C. Stalnaker, director of the Indiana employment security division, alerted Indiana's smaller employers today to the fact that if they have four or more employees during any 20 weeks this year they will be subject to the unemployment Insurance tax after January 1, 1956. He explained that his agency is trying to notify by mail every employer who may be affected by The recent changes in the federal and state laws but added that some of the 17,(M)0 smaller firms and businesses may overlook the notice. “We started sending out these notices a month ago,” Stalnaker said, “asking employers to report on the 1955 employment, As soon as possible aftw an employer sends this information to the division. we notify him whether he will be liable for the tax.” Stalnaker said that employers in private business and industry with eight or more employees have been paying the tax since 1936. Last fall, congress expanded the law to Include meployers with four or more employees. The 1965 Indiana„.general, 'ttar change Tn "the state employ" inent security act. These provisions will be effective January 1, Stalnaker said. He explained that although an employer may become liaWe because -he bad four or more' on his pgy roll .this year, tils 1955 pay rolls will not be taxable and his liability does not begin until next Juanary. “The employer pays the tax on the first $3,000 paid to each employee during a calendar year,” Stalnaker said. "He pays the state tax of 2.7 per Cent each quarter and the federal ax once a year. The federal rate is 3 per cent, but employers who pay their state tax promptly are allowed a credit of 2.7 per cent on the federal tax.” Stalnaker added that Indiana's law makes it possible for an employer, after several years, io qualify for a rate lower than the standard 2.7 per cent and still obtain the regular offset against the federal tax.

But barring a miraculous change in Soviet thinking the three western allied officials did not believe much progress would be made on their demand that the divided halves of Germany be allowed to have free elections. Before entering the fourth session the three western ministers held another meeting and mapped a policy keyed to the idea of pining full responsibility on the Soviet Union for failure to break the Impasse over Germany. This tougher attitude also has been reflected in the coolness shown by Soviet officials at Geneva toward their western contacts.
