According to recent interview by
Colonel w. N. Selig the publication
OF stories regarding the high salaries
paid film stars is very detrimental to
the industry. However, the salaries
are actually paid as reputed, almost
without exception, and it is the pay
ing rather than the publication that
hurts the producers most

insurance in connection with the
workmen's compensation law, in his
annual report to the thirty-seventh
general assembly. He favors the
change in the system.
The commissioner also fs consider
ing suggesting to the next legislature
that the compensation permitted in
jured workmen be increased from so
to so percent Of the weekly wage.
This will make the benefits greater
for the wage Garner receiving low
pay. the person who. needs the pro-
lection most, the commissioner says.
The present law provides for medi-
cal attendance not to exceed 800 for
two weeks treatment for injured
workmen. The commissioner is Of
the opinion that this period should
be increased to four weeks. He has
found that sometimes an injured wage
Garner needs attention more than
two weeks, but that some physicians,
by extra calls, manage to run up ~
bill of 500 in the two weeks period,
so that there Is no allowance for
further care.

II the relation of the attorneys 10 the
injured workmen be better guarded
in the law, so that exorbitant fees
may not be demanded. In arbitration
cases the commissioner has found
some lawyers to be very fair, often
accepting only nominal ray for SER
vices. However, in some cases, he
has found that lawyers demand half
the amount of the compensation
awarded. Where the wage Garner ap-
peals to the commissioner to fix the
compensation allowed the attorneys.
he may limit the amount to be paid
for legal services. However, unless
the injured workman especially asks
that this be done, the commissioner
is without authority.

The laws providing against issu-
ance OF passes by steam railroads and
street car systems are growing
stricter year by year, says j. P. Ingle,
manager OF the Keokuk Electric com
pany, operating the local street car
system. Under the Iowa laws com
panies are now restrained from grant.
ing passes to any public officials, ex-
cept policemen and fremen, when In
uniform.
The companies are permitted to
grant passes to their own bona-f1de
employees, but under the law to al:
most no one else. City and county
officials are not allowed to accept
passes, and violation of this provis-
ion is made criminal offense.
Persons engaged in charities work
are allowed, passes, as are police Of
ficers carrying parties to and from
houses Of correction.
Officials of railroads are not allow
ed to exchange passes any more. At
torneys are not allowed to receive
passes from client companies, unless
their entire time is spent in the SER
vice of these corporations.
Passes Going Out Of Use.
Mr.. Ingle says that at one time the
railroads gave passes to newspapers,
in return for which the journals car
ried advertisements for the lines.
Now, however, the railroad pays for
every inch of advertising 1t runs, and
the editor must have ticket for ev-
cry trip he takes on the railroad.
All over the country anti-pass laws
are being enacted by state legfsla-
lures, rules are being put in effect
by state utilities commissions, and of
late the interstate commerce commits
sion has been adopting regulations
against passes for interstate travel.
In all probability it will be but a
few years until the use of passes will
be entirely eliminated.
