ment upon the state industrial insur-
ance frauds. ! did so because of the
fact that the governor of the state and
the members of the Industrial Insur.

affair and had publicly stated that no
stone would be left unturned to de-
tect and punish the guilty parties. 1t
seemed to me that pending such in

for Now that the defendant, ]. f.
Gillies, has been found guilty upon
his first trial, l deem it not inoppor-
tune to rise up in meeting and make
a few remarks upon the subject
Organized labor is intensely inter-
ested in all matters concerning the
Workman's Compensation Act and it's
administration. The principle under
lying the law is eternally sound. We
want the injured workman to receive
every penny due him under the law,
and to receive it with the least pos
sible loss Of time. We want the funds, |
as far as can humanity be done, safe
guarded against any kind of fraud, |
loot or administration We have
had occasion before to protest to the
commission over details of operation
which We considered not to the best
interests of the workman. If occa-
sion arises We shall protest again
But the purpose of this article is to
point out a few facts in connection
With the insurance frauds which need
o be thought of.
