LIABILITY FOR EMPLOYERS
President Takes Radical Ground OH
That Important Subject.

4
That Important Subject.
The real features of the day were
the presidents two speeches-One to
the Georgia people and the other to
the editors. To the Georgians, after
expressing his gratitude and pride at
the action of that state in making his
maternal home their state building
he elaborated his ideas on railway
regulation and corporation regua-
ton generally-as regards the safety
of employees, and declared against
child labOr-or woman labor either
in factories. AS to the indemnity for
| injuries to employees he said: 1.-The
great increase in mechanical and man
ufacturing operations means a CORE
spending increase in the number OF
accidents to the wage workers EN-
plOyed therein, these including both
preventable and inevitable accidents.
To the ordinary wage workers family
such a calamity means grim hardship.
AS the work is done for the employer,
and therefore ultimately for the pub
lie, it is a bitter injustice that it should
be the wage worker himself and his
wife and children who bear the whole
penalty.
Legislation should be had, alike
from the nation and from the states,
not only to guard against the needless
multiplication of these accidents, but
to relieve the financial suffering due
to them. There should be
additional legislation to secure pecuni-
airy compensation to workmen suffer
ing from accidents, and when they
are killed, to their families.
'The present practice is based on
the view announced nearly seventy
years ago that principle Of Justice
and good sense demand that q work
man shall take upon himself all the
ordinary risks 0 fhis occupation In
my view. principle of justice and good
sense demand the very reverse Of this
view, which experience has proved to
be unsOund and productive OF wide
spread suffering.
when the employer, the agent Of
the public on his own responsibility
and for his own profit, in the bust
ness OF serving the public, starts in
motion agencies which create risks for
others he should take all the ordinary
and extraordinary risks involved, and
though the burden will at the moment
be his 1t will ultimately be assumed,
as it ought to be, by the general pub
lie. Only in this way can the shock
of the accident be diffused, for it will
be transferred from employer to con-
sumner, for whose benefit all industries
are carried on
The president added that congress
should plainly enact that railway en-
ployes are entitled to damage for ac-
cidents, and make the law so that the
long lawsuit which now so often
wears out the plaintiff would be elm,
mated.
The president closed with an appeal
for every encOura cement to the navy.
