House Friday.
The essential provisions of the in
dustrial commission and workmen's s
compensation acts sent to Governor
Carlson are:
An Industrial Commission of three
members, appointed by the governor
for terms of two, four and six years,
whose duties it shall be to administer
the compensation law and to represent
the state in relation to all matters con-
cerning industry. Each commissioner
to receive $4,000 salary. no more than
two of them being of the same politi-
cal party.
One commissioner to represent cap
ital and one labor, the third represent
ing no particular side of industry.
Commission may appoint nonpaid ad-
visory board to work with it.
Commission required to enforce all
laws governing industry and car
make investigations and issue orders
for the improvement of safety condi
tions in any place of business in the
state. 1t is supposed to investigate
conditions of unemployment and do all
in its power to bring together the en-
ployer and persons seeking employ
ment.
+ The most important duty of the
commission is in relation to threat
ened Industrial strife. The commits
sion is vested with so-called Canadian
arbitration power. No strike can be
called and no lockout effected until
the commission first has had an op-
portunity to thoroughly investigate
and attempt to adjust the differences
between the employer and his en-
ployes.
The compensation law provides for
stipulated rates of compensation to be
paid employees who are injured while
in the service of the employer and to
his dependents in case of death.
All farm and ranch labor and pri-
vate domestic servants, as well as em.
ployers of less than four employees.

the act.
Four forms of insuring for compen-
sation are left open to the employer

insurance fund, which is created by
the new law; stock company insur-
ance, mutual insurance or the carry
ing by the employer of his own risk.
on filing of bond with the Industrial
Commission to guarantee compensa-
tion payments if the necessity arises.
Industrial Commission makes rates
for insurance in the state fund. Dis
ability indemnity to be paid under the
law is based on the average weekly
wages of employe, but cannot exceed
IS per week. In case of death the
maximum amount to be paid is $500.
The compensation law applies to the
state and its employees, to every coun-
ty, city, town and other separate tax
ing unit in the state.
