Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees  weight of statements  clarification 

Summary:

The Board cannot totally bar the door to evidence given in explanation or clarification of previous statements hastily made, leaving aside questions of credibility. If this so-called principle (statements made before carry more weight) is true, one could never hope to give evidence in explanation or clarification. There is no such broad principle applicable to all circumstances except in situations turning strictlyon credibility.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
voluntarily leaving employment  personal reasons  family considerations 

Summary:

Claimant quit because hours of work left her with little or no time for her children. They had learning problems and were suffering in consequence. Acted as a reasonably prudent mother.
