Washington, March 6.-(SpeciaD -
The long heralded Sutherland Work
mans compensation bill came up be-
fore the House late on the afternoon
Of March 1, and at the time its pass
age was expected by the House be-
fore the close of the session.
Although the bill had the support of
President Gompers of the A. F. of L.
and the officials of the railroad broth
erhoods, nevertheless it was bitterly
opposed by the railroad workers, the
chief class that the bill was supposed
to benefit.
Branding it as a weak and made
quate measure, Representative Victor
L. Berger of wisconsin nevertheless
announced on Saturday that he would
vote to pass the bill, and the attitude
taken by the Socialist Congressman
was having considerable effect upon
the opinion of a number of othel
members toward the measure
what induced me to favor the BILL
said Berger, lis the fact that this is
the~only civilized nation on earth
do not call Russia civil hed-in which
the social responsibility of the nation
toward the workers is not recognized
particularly toward railroad workers
We Socialists hold that the working
man. while he may work for an indi
vidual employer, is none the less a
social risk which society as a whole
must recognize.
"In this bill, weak and inadequate
as it is, this great principle is recog
nized for the first time by the United
States. 1t sets a. precedent which
makes possible legislation providing
for old age pensions, insurance for I'm
employment and all of the other mea
sTres of the sort proposed by Social
ism"

Sutherland Bill 4 Corporation Measure

principal beneficiaries CD of the
measure, are loudly complaining that
the rates of compensation for injury
or death set by the measure are SO
low that it would be better for them
to retain present conditions when
compensation for death or injury is
secured either by civil suits for dam
ages or by accepting the companies
settlements.
However, the Sutherland bill makes
it compulsory upon railroad employ
es to accept compensationss named in
the bill and estops them from bring
ing suits This is the second chief
complaint against the measure by the
workers who desired an elective plan
of compensation similar to the law In
Wisconsin.
The railroad men charge that the
bill as now before the House, Is es-
sentially the same as model meas
ure recommended two years ago by
the convention of railroad claim
agents. The railroads urged the pass
age Of the Sutherland bill chiefly on
the ground that it would cheat the
system lawyers who chase ambu-
lances, and because it would be cheap
er for the roads than the present sys-
tenn
while I admit that from So to so
percent of all damage judgments go
to lawyers" said Berger, and while
the bill looks to m g very much as If
the claim agents wanted to get even
with the misunderstanding lawyers.
while the poor worker pays tho bills,
yet favored the bill for the reasons
have stated"
The Sutherland bill was a corpora
ton job, written by corporation law
yers; yet it. contained a principle
which is of vital Importance as a
basis for more complete remedial leg
islation.

Artists Don't Work

! San Jose, Cal. March 6.-The wom-
ems eight-hour law, in the opinion of
la Judge in this district, does not ap-
ply to the arts, and as he claims
that photography is an art, and the
employment of women in excess Of
eight hours per day in this particular
artistic business renders the en-
ployer immune from punishment. This
fudge, sitting in the Superior Court
Of San Francisco, was called upon to
pass upon the conviction of an en-
ployer for violation of the women's
feight-hour law. 1t developed in the ev-
idence that he compelled his employ
/ es to work fifty-nine and a half hours
each week. It was not contended by
the defendant that the accusation of
the conviction, appealed to the higher
court. In rendering his decision the
erudite Judge said in part: '@To my
mind photography is an art, and peo-
pie skilled in that calling are gener-
ally regarded as professional people.
l. do not believe this law was intended
to apply either to the arts or to the
professions, hence the findings of the
lower court must be set aside'' If this
circuitous reasoning stands the test,
there are large number Of people
who are ~ employed for wages that
would come under the purview of this
decision, No doubt, If thes kind of de-
cfsions are permitted to pass muster,
the man with wheel-barrow will, be
officially designated as an artist"

The coal trade at the present writ

river front and the Pultney mine is
about the only one that is getting ip

mines No. they only worked two
days last week and very slow this
