Twenty per cent reduction in the
rate of payment by employers to the
state industrial accident commission is |
the limit allowed by law, according to
an opinion of Attorney General Brown
yesterday in response to query from
the commission. This reduction Of the |
rate is allowed for good experience in
accidents for year.
This question came up when some
employers gave it as their opinion that
the ten per cent reduction for year
allowed by the law, when the amount
oaid out to an employer for accidents
lid not exceed fifty per cent of the
amount paid in to the commission,
should be given for each year of good
accident experience. and that at that
rate at the end of ten years the en-
ployer would be receiving insurance
without payment.
However, the attorney general holds
hat twenty per cent is the maximum
hat can be reduced and that if an
employer has good accident experience
'or a number of years his amount will
De only eighty per cent.

IRISH IRE IGNITED
BY "sPUD" SHORTAGE
People Urged to Hold Up
Exports.

Dublin, d.-(Correspondence Of
the Associated Press. THE food stu
alton in Ireland has provoked, from a
certain section. the demand that no
food shall be allowed to leave the
Irish shores. and it has been urged
that unless the government prohibit
export the people should forcibly hold
up the food at the Irish ports. Though
this demand has not been put forward
from any responsible source. it has
been noticed by Thomas w. Russell.
vice. president OF the department Of
agriculture for Ireland, who referred
to it as John Mitchel's old cry Of
Hold the Food"
Mr. Russell said only an overwhelm-
ing emergency could justify the risk
of having their export trade destroyed.
Last year Ireland had exported 49,
100000 pounds worth of food, and to
destroy that export trade would de-
stroy the import trade as well, since
they could get goods into Ireland only
by paying for them with exports. There
was no necessity whatever for panic.
There was an undoubted shortage Of
potatoes. but its pressure would not
be felt till the end of May and they
could make an effort to live on with
out potatoes until the new crop in
June and July
The government. measures for the
compulsory increase Of tillage in Ire
! land are proving success. They were
welcomed by the class Of small ten
ants who in most cases are tilling
more than the 10 per cent extra re-
quired by the regulations. The large
grazers and owners Of grass lands
held out at first, but the heads OF the
agricultural department made it evil
dent that they meant to insist on
their compulsory powers, and that,
unless the regulations were obeyed.
the land would be taken over and put
undar tillage, whether the owners
liked it or not. This has had its effect
and the reluctant owners are obeying
the order to till 10 per cent more land
than last year
The Irish Homestead, looking for
ward to the end OF the war and a con-
ttnuance of high food prices, calls for
tho organization Of every parish in
lTelard upon cooperative lines for the
purchase of its raw material and also
for the sale of its products direct to
the merchants and wholesalers in the
towns. The increased cost Of living
he attributes largely to the fact that
the distributive branch OF agriculture
rad been organized in a very haphaz-
ard way. He declares that, if the work
we're organized, as in Denmark, Ger
many, Holland and Belgium, the peo-
Pic in the British Isles could have 4
food supply which would insure them
against any danger Of being starved
out even if there were thousand sub
marines lying off their harbors.
