structed and great fields of grain and
pasture land are always in evidence.

EARNING POWER Is IMPAIRED
Loss of Eye Held to Be Permanent
Disability Under the compeHsa-
ton Act.

Madison.-Judge Stevens has filed
with the industrial commission his
finding in the case of the International
Harvester company against the com
mission and Ernest Koenig, in which
the ruling of the commission is sus-
tanned.
The commission awarded Koenig
compensation under the law upon the
theory that the loss Of an eye was
permanent partial disability which
would result in a weekly loss OF wages
Of Is per cent.
From the award the company APP
pealed to the circuit court of Dane
county.
In deciding the case, Judge Stevens
said:
The. evidence establishes the fact
that the loss Of one eye affects the
ability of the applicant to judge dis
tances- It is a matter OF such common
knowledge that judicial notice will be
taken OF it that preference will gen
orally be given to men with two eyes
who can correctly judge distances
When they are to be employed upon
such machines as that upon which the
applicant is working.
The fact that plaintiff has taken him
back at his old employment is not con-
elusive. The question is, will employ
ers generally give him a chance to
earn wages in the employment in
which he was working at the time Of
the accident as readily as they would
before the injury? The court is salts
tied that the commission properly
found that employers generally would
not and that such lessened ability to
secure employment is an impairment
OF earning capacity within the pro-
Visions OF the workmen's compensation
act
