In Germany the injured employee has
"a right, sanctioned by the laws, to
just and reasonable compensation for
his injuries. The employers. compelled
thus 10 face the duty which they owe
their employees. have worked out A
method Of mutual insurance against
this liability
Unable to escape the liability under
the technicalties Of the law, the en-
ployer addresses himself with intelli-
gence and mental honesty TO the right
performance OF mis- legal duty. He sub
mits to assessment, which is scientf-
cally apportioned with reference to the
hazards Of his employment.
Reduces Risk to Workers.
This in turn prompts him to elimi-
nate every avoidable element Of danger
in his employment in order that his
contribution to the general indemnifl-
cation fund shall be as light as possible
He has every inducement 10 utilize i'm
proved machinery and every known
safety device. II the employer reduces
the risk OF his servant. he reduces the
rate Of his assessment for accident
compensation.
Il is regrettable that Governor vii.
son should stoop 10 discredit the pro-
posals Of the Progressive platform as
visionary and inca pabe of perform
ance. He either knows better or should
know better
There is no propose, contained In the
platform which is not in the true sense
Of the word conservatives The Pro
gressive party merely proposes that We
as nation shall put our house in or.
der; that We shall stop pointing with
pride to ourselves and take a sober and
a candid inventory of our failings and
shortcomings
The world knows that we are back
ward in many respects. When we com
pare the sloven way in which we half
perform the duties which the state
owes to its members. with the enlfght-
ened and energetic performance of the
same duties by such advanced indus
trial nations as Germany. and when we

PROGRESSIVE PROGRAM
is NOT REVOLUTIONARY,
SAYS SEN. JOS. NJ. DIXON
BY SENATOR JOSEPH M. DIXON.
Chairman OF the National Progressive
PARTY

BY SENATOR JOSEPH M. DIXON.
Chairman Of tho National Progressive
Party.
NEW YORK. Sept. 26.-The cry in
some quarters that the Progressive
platform is Socianstic and revolution
airy is highly amusing. 1t puts one in
mind Of the cry that went up in Eng
,and some years ago that Great Bri-
tains commercial supremacy was
threatened with destruction through
the proposal 20 abolish child labor in
the collierles
The enlightened statesman Of older
countries would regard the Progress
sive platform as most conservative
program. and disappointing to his ideal
ism in that it attempts nothing which
has not been tested by practice and
indicated by succession opera ton or
application
Take, FOR instance. the Progressive
payty's proposal for adequate compen-
sa,iOn for workmen injured in the
course OF their employment. There are
a great many solemn and well meaning
persons who think. in common with
william Barnes the present record
holder as defender OF the constitu-
ton, that anything with which they are
unfamiliar IS unconstitutional They
see in the conscientious endeavor Of the
Progressive party to rouse the people
nothing more than covert attack on
property and individual liberty
High Record of Fatalities.
II has been estimated that the num-
Der Of fatal accidents TO workmen in
the course OF their employment in this
country averages over 10000 per an
mum In addition, there are upward Of
1000. 600 accidents, many OF them In
volving permanent disablement. but not
fatal. In high percentage Of these In
1uries the courts deny the claim for re-
dress because of the survival Of those
barbaric Legal principles which hold
that the injured man can not recover
for his injuries Il they are due to con
trtbutorv negligence
In some jurisdictions these atroclous
sophistries have been modified by stat
ute, and in others abolished The rea-
soning that led to their adoption gen
erations ago has no application what
ever to modern conditions

RETTUNG KEEPS MEN AFLOAT
New Material Invented in Germany
May Replace Old Life Preservers-
Successful Tests Made.

The Hague.-Most interesting DEM
onstrations were made recently at the
Hook of Holland by the crew Of the
lifeboat with the new safety girdles
made of a material called "rettung'
(savingl, which possesses the prop
erty of keeping those who wear it
afioat in the water Previously the
first demonstration in Holland had
been given before the queen and
prince consort on one of the orna-
mental lakes in the zoo palace garden.
A few days later the Rotterdam river
police tried it and then at the special
request of the prince consort. who Is
always to the fore where anything
having to do with life saving is con-
cerned, the Lifeboat society of South
Holland arranged a test, at which
Prince Henry himself was a most In.
terested spectator.
The test was made in the open sea
near the north pier. The lifeboat crew
all wore girdles of "rettung, which
they declared did not incommodc
their rowing at all. as it was much
more comfortable than the old-fash.
loned life saving belts.
Hollands champion swimmer. Mr..
Ooms. who also wore the "rettung, %
over which was seaman's heavy oil.
cloth coat, and who had requested to
be permitted to join In the demonstra-
tion, was the first to jump overheard.
Fer while he fioated on his back
full length, then he swan in all sorts
of positions, and at last tried to dive,
but this he found was quite impossi
BILE, owing to the buoyant qualities Of
the material. Some of the lifeboat
men next tried the experiment, and
all were entirely satisfied that ret
tung viii prove most valuable ally
in their struggle with the elements
when next they go on life saving ex-
pedition.

She did not write a note; she did

the operator of wireless station at

She accepted and the acceptance waa

can appeal for temporary assistance.
II a central institution, created for the
general good of the entire country,
we're in existence, the banks in turn
could pledge the commercial paper
which they held, and obtain currency
to meet the needs Of the communities
which they serve. There is absolutely
mo difference in principle; and If the
problem be brought down to this level
it will be understood by anyone.
The third function in Importance for
the central association would be to
deal in gold and foreign exchange, in
order to conserve our gold reserves.
This Is the ammunition train which
must be brought up by order of the
commanding general, to replenish the
reserve ammunition. Each soldier can
not have his own ammunition train,
and in the case of our financial system
the power TO import gold, or to deal in
foreign exchange for the purpose of in.
huencing gold to this country, must
be delegated to a central control.
These three functions are about all
it is necessary to grant to a central rs
sociation, and surely they are not very
radical. Let us recount them.
First-The power to centralize and
manage the reserves of the banks, so
that they may be fluid, and ready for
instant use
Second-The power to issue bank
notes by rediscounting, when neces-
sary, for existing banks, maintaining,
of course. an adequate gold reserve
against all notes which are issued;
and
Third-The power to deal in gold
and foreign exchange, in order to pro-
tect and build up our gold reserve,
when necessary.
II we grant these simple powers to
a central association, eliminate the
danger of competition or friction with
the Independent banks, and make the
central association merely piece of
to serve other banks, and
through them the business community,
we do not seem to be doing anything
very dangerous or radical
The chief objection that has been
raised to the founding of a national
reserve association, is that it might
get into the hands of politicians or
special financial interests. | believe
that congress will have no difficulty in
the manner of electing
the directors of the association, that
1t will be impossible for any ambitious
clique of politicians or flnanciers to
get a foothold in the management of
the institution
The National Citizens League is
pledged to oppose any bill, however
desirable otherwise. which does not
safeguard the interests Of all the peo-
pie.
