LAW As TO COLOR BLINDNESS
Does Not Mean Loss Of Sight, Accord.
Ing to Ruling Made BY Georgia
Superior Court.

Color blindness does not mean total
loss Of sight In the meaning Of the law
II was held recently by Judge John T.
Pendleton in the motion division Of
Superior court at Atlanta. Ga.
Judge Pendleton's decision cleared
q legal point rnised only once before
In the United States, so far a. Ii shown
by court records. This was In Ne
bgaska, where both the lower court
and the State Supreme court held that
color blindness means total blindness.
The question was raised In a suit
brought by George L. Fallin, who was
locomotive engineer for the Atlanta
Joint Terminals. against the Locom0.
tive Engineer Mutual Insurance and
Accident association, branch OF
the Brotherhood Of Locomotive En-.
glneers.
Engineer Fallin, II was set out, be-
came color blind while engaged In bis
line Of duty and was discharged from
his position. He then applied to the
engineers association for his insur.
ance-S1 ,500-for the loss Of his eye
sight, as stipulated In the policy. The
association, however, declined to pay
the amount on the ground that color
blindness did not come within thu
terms Of the policy concerning blind
ness. Fallln then brought suit In the
courts through his counsel. City Attor
