(a) It shall be the. province and duty of the bureau to establish and maintain a national system of employment offices for men, women, and juniors who are legally qualified to engage in gainful occupations, and, in the manner hereinafter provided, to assist in establishing and maintaining systems of public employment offices in the several States and the political subdivisions thereof. The bureau shall also assist in coordinating the public employment offices throughout the country by furnishing and publishing information as to oppor- tunities for employment, by maintaining a system for clearing labor between the several States, by establishing and maintaining uniform standards, policies, and procedure, and by aiding in the transportation of workers to such places as may be deemed necessary, for the purpose of obtaining employment. It is hereby declared to be the policy of the Congress that the service authorized by this aet shall be impartial, neutral in labor disputes, and free from political influence. (b) Except as herein otherwise provided, the United States Employment Service shall be charged with the administration of this act, under the super- vision of the Secretary of Labor. The director general is authorized to deduct from any amount appropriated for any fiscal year under the provisions of section 5 not in excess of 5 per cent thereof, which shall remain available until expended for expenses incurred in the administration of this act. Sec. 4. Except as provided in section 10, in order to obtain the benefits of appropriations apportioned under section 5, a State shall, through its legislature, accept the provisions of this act and designate or authorize the creation of a State agency vested with all powers necessary to cooperate with the United States Employment Service under this act. Sec. 5. (a) Yor the purpose of earrying out the provisions of this act there is hereby authorized to be appropriated the sum of $4,000,000 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1931, and for each fiscal year thereafter up to and including the fiscal year ending June 30, 1934. Seventy-five per centum of the amounts ap- propriated under this act shall be apportioned by the director general among the several States in the proportion which their population bears to the total popu- lation of the States of the United States according to the next preceding United States census, to be available for the purpose of establishing and maintaining systems of public employment offices in the several States and the political subdivisions thereof in accordance with the provisions of this act. The balance of the amounts so appropriated shall be available (1) for administrative expenses under subdivision (b) of section 3, and (2) for expenditures as provided in section 10, or, in the discretion of the director general, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of subdivision (a) of section 3 other than for establishing and maintaining public employment offices. Except as provided in section 10, no payment shall be made in any year out of the amount of such appropriations apportioned to any State until an equal sum has been appropriated for that year by the State, including appropriations made by local subdivisions thereof, for the purpose of maintaining public employment offices as a part of a State controlled system of public employment offices; except that the amounts so appropriated by the State shall not be less than 25 per centum of the apportion- ment according to population, made by the director general for such State for the current year, and in no event less than $5,000. (b) The amounts apportioned to any State for any fiscal year shall be available for payment to and expenditure by such State, for the purposes of this act, until the close of the next succeeding fiscal year; except that amounts apportioned to any State for any fiscal year preceding the fiscal year during which is comnmenced the first regular session of the legislature of such State held after the enactment of this act, shall remain available for payment to and expenditure by such State until the close of the fiscal year next succeeding that in which such session is commenced. Subject to the foregoing limitations, any amount so apportioned unexpended at the end of the period during which it is available for expenditure under this act shall, within sixty days thereafter, be reapportioned for the current fiscal year, among all the States in the same manner and on the same basis, and certified to the Secretary of the Treasury and treasurers of the States in the same manner, as if it were being apportioned under this act for the first time.
