SAY SCHEMING LAW
YERS HURT BUSINESS
Will Ask Legislature TO
Pass Stringent Pro.
tectiye Act

NcAlester. Okla. Nov. 2l.-A mum
her of tha large employers OF labor
in this vicinity are advocating the
passage of a "Snitch' law by the new
state legislature Missouri and Texas
have Suitcb laws and hundreds OF dol
lars are saved each year to the EN-
ployers
Ii is not generally known that many
lawyers have in their employ what Is
known as a "Snitch When man is
hurt at a mine or on railroad
the "Sntch' is soon on the snot and
usually closes a deal with the injured
man for q damage suit through the
lawyer whom he represents. The at
torney takes the case on contingent
fee and the injured man Is assured
that he need not worry about expen-
ses The Snitch' is paid w2ll the
attorney gets half or two-thi,ds of
The amount received from the com
pany against which the suit is
brought, and the injured man gets
what IS left
Such cases are numerous among the
miners and lawyer who practices
this kind Of law grows prosperous.
Missouri and TeXa have put a stop
to this practice with the result that
the injured men and companies VIII
both fare better, but the attorney and
the "Snitch' will both be losers.

gained control of the properties repre-
