 52 STAT.] 75Tir CONG. , 3D SESS.-CH. 680-JUNE 25, 1938 (b) The benefits provided for in this section shall be paid to an employee at such reasonable intervals as the Board may prescribe. (c) The maximum benefits payable to an employee for unemploy- ment within his benefit year shall not exceed eighty times the daily benefits payable to him. (d) The Board shall prescribe regulations for determining the amount of daily benefits, and the maximum benefits during any benefit year, to be payable to part-time workers and for determining the days of unemployment with respect to which such benefits shall be payable. Such regulations shall provide benefits reasonably pro- portionate to the benefits hereinbefore provided for other employees, with due regard to the compensation payable per month to a part- time worker with respect to his part-time employment, as compared with the compensation per month prevailing in the same locality for employees employed by employers for the full-time hours or days per month prevailing in the locality for the same class of service. Such regulations shall provide also for the payment of such benefits to a part-time worker only with respect to his days of unemployment in excess of a number to be prescribed with due regard to the pro- portion of full time which he regularly works. (e) The provisions of section 9 of the Railroad Retirement Act of 1937 shall be applicable to benefits under this Act to the same extent and in the same manner as therein provided with respect to annuities, death benefits, and pensions. (f) No benefits shall be assignable or be subject to any tax or to garnishment, attachment, or other legal process under any circum- stances whatsoever, nor shall the payment thereof be anticipated. (g) If (i) benefits are paid to any employee with respect to any period, and there is later determined to be payable to such employee any remuneration with respect to such period, and (ii) the person or company from whom such remuneration is payable has, before pay- ment thereof, notice of the payment of such benefits, the remuneration so payable shall not be reduced by reason of such benefits but the remuneration so payable, to the extent of such benefits, shall be held to be a special fund in trust for the Board. The amount of such special fund shall be paid to the Board and in the collection thereof the Board shall have the same authority, and the same penalties shall apply, as are provided in section 8 of this Act with respect to contribu- tions. The proceeds of such special fund shall be credited to the account. The amount of such benefits, to the extent that it is repre- sented in such a special fund which has been collected by the Board, shall be disregarded for the purposes of subsections (a) and (c) of this section. QUALIFYING CONDITIONS SEC. 3. An employee shall be qualified to receive benefits in accord- ance with section 2 of this Act only if the Board finds that- (a) There was payable to him compensation of not less than $150 with respect to employment during his base year; and (b) Within six months prior to his benefit year and after June 15, 1939, he has had a waiting period of at least fifteen consecutive days of unemployment, or two half-months during each of which he had at least eight days of unemployment. No such period shall be counted for the purposes of this subsection if unemployment benefits have been paid with respect to the whole or any part thereof under this Act, any other Act of Congress, or under any other unemployment- compensation law. 1097 Intervals of pay- ment.
