Laws Recommended

The foundation for the plan EN-.
bodied in the tentative draft OF the
bin is the English compensation law.
The continental laws may be better
In some respects. but they are not
20 easily adaptable TO our Industrial
conditions here.
The English laws, as a basis. fur
nlsh the best path by which VIC, in
America. can make the beginning 20
compensate workmen for accidents.
The English law has extended liabil-
.ty for compensation practically TO all
employments. AS first step. we have
suggested that VIC so only halfway.
According TO the scheme. the EN-.
ployer will bo liable for practically
every accident regardless OF the uues-
ton OF negligence, except where the
employc has been guilty OF deliberate
self-injury, or refusing or falling de.
liherately 10 use guard for machinery

the other hand, the employer would
be freed from all liability for dam

personally has not been guilty OF any
iault or wrong or negligence In
other words. negligence Of fellow
servant or anyone else could not be
Imputed 10 the employer, but In such
cases the employer would be liable
Tor compensation.
The bill would permit OF voluntary
nohemes OF compensation between the
employer and employee as an alter
native TO the legal liability.
Amounts OF compensation have
been tentatively named in this draft
OF bill which however. are subject

now estimating the cost of substituting
