job insurance agency has received individuals whose ‘social security numbers were issued in another state. Some are now bona fide Indiana residents and form a regular part of the state's labor force but many others are individuals who apparently “went where the jobs were,” the director said. Almost half of the. “migrants” came fiom Indiana’s four neighboring states, many of them presumably crossing state lines to

work on the construction of huge war projects, Largest number of out-of-staters came from Illinois, with 77.938. Kentucky was next, 57,950; Ohio, 25,644, and Michigan, 20,725. Migrants, however, came from all over the nation. Missouri for example had 9660. Even Alaska had 21 working in Indiana. “The influx of workers to Indiana, where there is a concentration of war plants, points up dramatically the post-war employment adjustments that must be made before we can resume a normal peace-time economy,” Col. Gardner said. He said that if they work in Indiana “insured” employment long enough, the multi-state workers have the same benefit rights under the state job insurance act as do Indiana workers. Multi-state workers can file an unemployment compensation claim at any public employment office in the nation. If they meet all eligibility requirements, they may recéive unemployment. compensation-as- do resident eligible unemployed.

Support - Change in ~~ Constitution.

By MARSHALL MeNEIL ; Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—A move~ ment appears to be well under way

[lin the states to force congress to call a constitutional convention to| |

put a ceiling on income, estate and gift taxes. The aim is to limit

but it is not clear whether this means 25 per cent of net, or -of gross, income. : In congress there seems to be but little interest in ‘or knowledge. of this movement, and the treasury has no complete information about it

But if the pressure of state legislatures continues, congress may one day be confronted with an inescapable demand to call a convention to amend the constitution. For the constitution says: “The congress . . . on the application of the legislatures of twothirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which , . . shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this constitution, when (ratified by . . . three-fourths of the several states, .. ."
