weekly compensation up to and includ-
ing March IA. 1916, at which time pay
ments ceased, as the respondents con-
sidered that disability had ended. and
to determine this point a hearing was
requested by the claimant.
From statements of three physicians
submitted in connection with this
case it would appear that the claimant
suffered from an injury on the inner
side of the left knee, which consisted

pictures taken show a slight elevation

a statement of DR.. Paul p. SWEET Of
Hartford, who made an examination on
March 3, 1916, of the injured knee.
this injury has healed and the man
is a present suffering only from the
natural painful sensations resulting
from such a condition" and DR.. SWEET
further stated, 4 can see no reason
why a complete functional recovery
shall not occur, and it will be per-
fectly well in another month. AS
this examination was made by DR..
SWEET over a month previous to the
date of the hearing, an allowance OF
about four weeks in made in the
award hereinafter made in addition to
the prognosis which DIR. SWEET had
made, making in all a period of about
two months from the date of DR..
Swett's examination for a recovery.
This is one month more than DR.. SWEET
believed would be necessary.
After considering all the facts in the
case it was agreed that the respond

ceived recently in which the apoint-
ment of Past Grand Master Workman.
G. Herbert Bishop of New Haven, to
the office of Supreme Guide was an
rounced. Brother Bishop has wired
back his acceptance of the appoint
ment. which has come to him after
several years of active work in fra
ternal insurance in connection with
the A. Q. L. W., in which he has held
all the important offices and by means
of which he gained an experience in
fraternal affairs which should aid him
materially in performing the duties re-
Quired of him as Supreme Guide. That
Brother Bishop will capably fill the
position is not to be doubted if the
performance of past duties may be
taken as a criterion from which the
performance of future duties may be
judged. Brother Bishop is the recip-
lent of congratulations on all sides and
his friends wish him the best of sue
cess in his future endeavors.

against our action, none has been
found to argue that the blockade is in

Referring to DIR. Won Bethmann-
Hollwes's statement that Great Brit

tlnuation of the war and that he made
proposals last September to which he

said:
