COMPENSATION DECISIONS.
Courts of California and New York
Reach Opposite Conclusions.

Courts of California and New York
Reach Opposite Conclusions.
The supreme court Of California has
decided that an employer in that state
is not liable under the workmen's COM
pensation law for injuries to an en-
ployee which he received as the result
of being tickled by fellow workman.
Judge Melvin, writing the opinion,
pointed out that an accident for which
the employer may be held responsible
"must be one resulting from risk
reasonably incident to the employ
ment." The court said in part:
"That the act of his fellow servant
was but momentary and without NAL
ice and not in excess Of the usual in
tercourse between servants makes no
difference. Suppose the fellow employ
ee had tripped him up Intentionally,
but playfully. Would any one contend
that the employer was liable because
his servants perhaps entirely with
out his knowledge had established
custom of tripping one another? We
cannot see how this assault differed
from any other. Flint was hyper
aesthetic in that he was peculiarly
sensitive to tickling. This was known
to his associates. His fellow servant
who tickled him as he was going down
a stairway carrying bucket in his
hand may have been an amiable per-
son who merely intended bit Of
rough play, but unless he was an idiot
he must have seen that such prank
was attended with some danger. -
We cannot see that it is our duty to
measure the dynamics of assaults and
to hold that the master must be charg-
ed with foreseeing and insuring against
those which are playfully intended and
which may be sanctioned by custom
existing among his servants
The New York court Of appeals
reached an opposite conclusion in the
practically similar case of In re Heitz.

WARNING TO EMPLOYERS.
New York Industrial Commission Says
They Must Insure Workers.


They Must Insure Workers.
Employers who do not take out COM
pensation insurance for their employ
ees are likely to go to Jail if they do
not mend their ways.
Many complaints have reached the
State Industrial Commission in the last
few weeks Of employers who have not
protected their employees by taking
out compensation insurance as provid-
ed by the state law.
Until the legislature of 1916 acted
the New York state compensation law
provided that where an employer had
not taken out compensation insurance
and one of his employees was injured
the state industrial commission could
institute civil action against the en-
ployer, under which not only the COM
pensation could be recovered, but
heavy penalties as well. In such an
action the employer could not plead in
defense any negligence on the part of
the injured employee Or contributory
negligence on the part of any fellow
employee.
The legislature of 1916 made failure
to take out compensation by employers
whose business was covered by the
compensation law misdemeanor, thus
providing a Jail penalty in addition to
the civil remedies already provided.
At recent meeting the State Indus
trial Commission considered at length
the increase in complaints against neg
ligenf employers, and it was decided
that from now on its legal bureau
should take the necessary steps to
prosecute such offenders criminally.
Employers who neglect to take out
condensation do more to discredit the
condensation law than any other agen-

the New York state industrial commits

the KAmpensation law, as they had
I #ssd6 to believe they We're, they

of the law and jump to the conclusion
that in some way the state has not
kept its agreement with the injured
workers. 1t is the business of the in
dustrial commission to see that in
jured workmen receive the compensa-
ton the law intended they should
receive. Hence the commission intends
to resort to severe measures If en-

ing their employees against accident.

ignorantly or Intentionally, have sought

4 MILITARY SERVICE.
Gompers Favors Compulsory Training
When Volunteers Fail.

GoFnpers Favors compulsory framing
When Volunteers Fail
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, in the
course of a recent interview said he
was in favor of compulsory training
and service, either military or indus
trial, only after voluntary service had
been proved failure. ..
1--WE must have service" he said.
ut should be voluntary. There must
be no compulsory service enforced I'M
til every opportunity is given to prove
voluntary service Ineffective.
Though not forgetting the present
situation, we must still talk in terms
of peace. The great recent conference,
however, pledged labor's service to the
country in any form whatever
But at the same time the resolu-
ton specifically declares the govern
ment must recognize the organized Ia
Dor movement as the agency through
which it must cooperate with wage
earners.'
ION the other hand, labor believes
voluntary service should have more Of
trial The voluntary idea has not
yet been sufficiently tried to warrant
the immediate adoption of policy OF
compulsory service.
"There is lot of difference between
training that is voluntary, entered into
and encouraged by propaganda and ed
ucation, and that of compulsion."
Asked what form of service labor
would render, Mr.. Gompers replied:
ut is little too early to answer
that. I cannot say now whether labor
would train for the industrial Or mill
tary end of the war. But you know
it requires three men in factory for
every man in the trenches to keep an
army supplied. Labors forces are
large.
perhaps our plans for this will be
known soon, but we will have to get
down to working basis"

Secretary of the American Federation Of
Labor.
1t is impossible to record fundamen-
tai gains during the last year, because
Of organized labor's agitation, or to
indiyidualize probable gains during the
year to come.
The best we can do is to observe
tendencies. Prominent among these is
the workers seizure of the Cry for
preparedness to emphasize danger
in industry more deadly than battle
fields.
Government statistics show that 3d.
900 men are annually killed and 700,-
600 are annually injured for a period
of four weeks or over.
1t has been stated that every year
there are over 100000 cases Of in
dustrial illness, caused mainly by long
hours, low wages. dust, bad air, fumes,
smoke, poisonings and poor ventilation
and that through typhoid fever and
malaria alone $900,000,000 is annually
lost to this nation enough to equip
the largest army and navy in the
world and then have a balance suf.
fcient to pay the tuition of every boy
now in college.
A system Of national preparedness
which does not include recognition OF
this frightful and preventable wastage
is the preparedness urged by big bust
ness. A morality that ignores these
facts and condemns war is based on
meaningless phrases.
! Another present day tendency is the
acceptance of organized labor's posi-
ton on immigration restriction. Dur.
ing the last year the acid test Of ex
| perience has verified the claim of trade
unions that American institutions can
not assimilate nor American living
| standards resist the flood tides Of in
I, duced immigration that has been the
policy of the captains of industry. In
| formation and reports received by the
officers of the American Federation OF
Labor cletrly demonstrate the fact
that labor famine" exists only
where employers still demand lofrs
hours at low wages and where they
ignore the living standards set by the
workers.
Another element among employers
who talk Of the scarcity of labor do SO
to entice a sufficient number Of idle
workers to their factory gates as a
menace to those employed and who are
liable to demand better conditions.
These employers oppose restriction of
immigration because restriction will
defeat their policy of having two or
more men for every job.
Another tendency Is the growing OPP
position to labor injunctions, which
class labor power as property. The
congress of the United States has
voiced this opposition in amendments
to the antitrust laws Judicial inter
pretations Of the term property" in
the fourteenth amendment to the fed
eral constitution are losing their force.
What was originally intended to end
slavery has been used to thwart the
enactment Of social legislation. but
courts have failed to check the swell
ing tide of democracy.
The trade union movement Is con-
scious Of the part 1t has played in the
tendencies above referred to, and this
consciousness wall be an inspiration to
greater effort during the coming year.
