UNITED STATES
A BAD EMPLOYER
Sets Poor Example For the
Corporations Workmen's
Compensation Discussed

Washington, D. c., Dec. 29.-''The re-
lation Of state to federal workmen's
compensation" was discussed last night
at the opening session of the American
Association Tor Labor Legislation, now
holding its fifth annual meeting in Wash
ingtOn.
Delegates from official commissions,
departments of state, workmen's organi-
cations and experts from manufacturing
establishments were present.
Not more than 10 percent of the men
injured in work accidents were able to
obtain compensation under the so-called
common law" said John H. Wallace Of
the industrial insurance commission of
the state OF Washington, in an address
on state insurance from the wOrmen's
viewpoint.
Mr.. Wallace said that the amount paid
by employers to protect themselves from
verdicts was not less than a million dol
lars in each great industrial state So
the majority of workmen were left TO
bear their burden alone OF as charges up
on society.
In telling what the state of Washing
ton had done in inaugurating a system
OF compulsory state insurance against in
dustrial accidents, Mr.. Wallace said that
the question OF proper legislation had
been considered by a commission of five
employers and five employees.
Indemnities for Injuries.
MIR. Wallace pointed out that under the
that the child Of the present shall have
an opportunity to be a good citizen Of the
future.
The law provides for a monthly paw
ment of from $40 to $50 TO a workman
temporarily, totally disabled, provided
such payment does not exceed 60 percent
of his wages.
1. VI. Rubinow, formerly expert L. S.
bureau of labor, said that the nation is
in the uncomfortable position of being a
very much worse employer than many of
the large corporations which have, of
their own free viii, established a very
much better system of compensation
than the United States government.
The government cannot in good faith
come before the country with the de-
mand for a more liberal treatment of
the railway employees than it cares to
give to its own servants, said Mr.. Ru-
binOw. There must be immediate leg
islatiOn if the United States government
is not willing to remain among the
worst of employers.
''The public at large does not appre-
ciate the many hazardous occupations in
which federal employees are engaged
Outside of the dangerous isthmian canal
zone operations there are the navy yards,
the power stations, the railway mail ser
vice. the forestry service, the rural mail
delivery and many other branches each
with dangers of its own. Over 200 per
