Farming, mining and in- dustrial companies outside of towns are obligated to provide proper and healthy houses for their employees, for which they may charge not more than one-half per cent monthly of the assessed tax value of the same. They also must es- tablish schools hospitals and other stitutionS necessary to the community.

Employers are held responsible for in- juries received in performing labor and for professional diseases, and must pay indemnity for same according to the laws. Employers must provide for the health of employees and adopt all nec- essary measures to guard against acci- dents. Both workmen and employers may combine in association to protect their respective interests. The laws recognize both the right to strike and to close down.

The differences between capital and la bor will be subject to the decision of the council of arbitration and conciliation formed of an equal number of represen- tatives of capital and labor and one mem- Der from the government. If an employer refuses to submit his case to this coun- cil or abide by it's decision, he termi- mates his contracts with his employees and is obliged to pay them three months salary. If the workmen refuse, their con tracts are terminated. An employer who discharges an employe without just cause or because he has joined union or taken part in legal strike, is obliged, at the choice of the workman. to continue the

others accompanied by freshmen went
in other directions and held informal

very efficient corps of teachers.
