by virtue of constitutional restrictions
to keep pace with this industrial and
economic progress. To go back to
court procedure now that we have ad-
vanced so far along the road of pro
gress would indeed be regretable but
fortunately such possibility is very
remote
"That the procedure instituted UNI
der the present law is a welcome one
and that the trainers Of the act were
wise in throwing into the discard so
much of the legal procedure as con-
sistent with modern industrial exper-
fence, is evidenced by the small per-
centage of cases which are appealed
from the decision of the arbitration
committees TO the full board and by
the still fewer cases that are taken
from the full board TO the supreme
court.
another gratifying experience has
been the small number of disagree
ments arising under the law as com
pared with the total number of cases
settled. During the period of time
mentioned, from July ], 1913, to Feb
ruary %, 1914, some 10000 cases
were settled without the necessity OF
proceeding to arbitration This small
percentage of disputes arising, illus
trates the splendid attitude of the EN-
ployers of Michigan towards the Law
and the confidence repOsed in The
members of the industrial accident
board"

FEW DlSAGREErlENTS ARISE
UNDER COMPENSATION LAW,
SAYS SECRETARY r. l.. DRAKE

"That the arbitration proceedings
provided by the compensation act for
settlement of disputed claims are
much less costly than any court pro-
cedure that could be instituted is
proven by the experience Of the Mich
igan industrial accident board" said
Secretary X. l.. Drake. "While this
item of cost is of Importance, there
is feature in connection with these
proceedings that should not be lost
sight of and that feature is a reform
that would be impossible of accom-
plishment under court procedure, that
is the elimination of the long delay
usually experienced when case is
instituted in any court. When a dis
pute arises under the compensation
law there is no wait of from six
months to two years before same
comes on for hearing, all cases with
but few exceptions being brought on
within few weeks after it is found
impossible to arrive at an agreement,
thus making necessary arbitration
proceedings. During the past eight
months $50 cases have been adjusted
Charlevoix county herald., 1914-04-18

by arbitration committees at total
cost to the state, exclusive Of the
board members salaries of S3,733.46,
this amount includes a So fee for
each arbitrator, one of whom in each
case is selected by the injured en-
ploye and one by the employer, a
member of the board sitting as chair
man. The proceedings before these
committees are much simpler than
would be possible before a legal tri-
bunal, and rarely does a case occupy
more than two or three hours time,
the committees being unhampered by
legal precedents established in the
misty past before 'high-speed ma
chinery was heard Of, the committees
invariably getting right down to
fundamentals and deciding the cases
on the facts as they actually exist
and in the light Of present-day ex-
periences. These arbitration pro
ceedings and, indeed, the compensa-
tion law itself, are made necessary by
the astounding industrial and econo
mic development, and court procedure
has been left far in the rear, unable

PROTECTION FOR ALASKA GAME

been attracting wealthy sportsmen of
ali countries in greater and greater
numbers each year. The Alaskan
bear is the largest known variety and
the Alaskan moOse-head is regarded
as the finest trophy of the kind in the
world, the horns sometimes measur-
ing six feet across. In addition there
are splendid specimens of caribou TO
be had and the mountain sheep when
in good condition, are distinguished
from all the varieties found elsewhere
by the peculiarly pure white of their
fleece.
The districts affected by the new
regulations are among the most read

Washington, D. C.-The shooting of
moose in southeastern Alaska and of
mountain sheep in the eastern part
of the Kenai Peninsula is prohibited
until April l, 1916, by the new regu-
lations published by the Department
of Agriculture TO go into effect April
1, 1914. The area thus closed to
moose hunters for two years hes
south and east of the Lynn Canal; on
the Kenai Peninsula sheep are pro-
tected east of longitude $50 degrees.
Hitherto Alaskan game has been
protected only by a closed season and
