the general sentiment that seems to
prevail as to the dosirability Of COM

3. Proper Method OF Compensat-

Especially Eye Injuries.
As Is the case in most jurisdic-
tons. this is the most perplexing
problem that has confronted Della
wares administrative officials. A
proper method OF compensating per-
manent partial disabilities adds
greatly TO the efficiency Of the ad-
ministration OF any worhmen's com
pensation law. Under our act, until
quite recently, payments Of compen-
sation for injuries OF this class were
made on the basis Of wage percent
age for terms OF weeks for specific
injuries, and all others coming with
in the class were compensated on
the basis Of loss Of earning power

Accident Board after due investiga-
ton, but at best It was only an ar

having been somewhat startled by
the recommendation Of the commit
tee as to what should constitute a

impressed with the discussion as to
the practcability OF the establish

examination. We also noted the ten
dency to discount any recommended
tion for allowances, due to the use
OF corrective lenses In computing
compensation for eye injuries. II an

As to n standard schedule for the
rating Of permanent partial disabil-
tiles, we arc unable TO see how this
ideal can bo realized so long as the
greater majority of tho ndministra-
tive boards are limited in their de-
clslons to the scope OF the various
laws provided by tho legislative
bodies Of the several jurisdictions.
The schedule for specific injuries
in the act which the Industrial Ac-
cident Board OF our State Is striving
to administer to tho satisfaction Of
both employer and employe was re-
Gently supplemented by the follow
ing, borrowed from our sister States:
In all other cases in this class,
or when the usefulness Of
member or any physical func-
tion is permanently impaired,
the compensation shall bear
such relation to the amount
stated in the schedule as the dis
abilities bear to those produced
by the injuries named in the
schedule.
For the loss OF a fractional
part OF the vision Of the eye,
tho compensation shall be for
such percentage of the total
number of weeks allowed for

weeks) as the loss suffered bears

were made on such earning power

Age. mentality, ability to resume old
occupation and capacity for adjust
ment 20 new conditions are facsors
that should enter into the determina-
tion OF the future earning capacity
OF an injured workman who has suf-
fered a permanent disability Fre-
duently the handicapped omploye Is
returned TO his former place OF en-
ployment and given an occupation
suitable 70 his capacity at the same
rate OF wage as before the injuryi
but sooner or later he finds himself
dropped by the wayside. For in
stance, a structural ironworker who
sustains an injury which leaves him
with crippled foot. has a disability
which makes him unfit for climbing.
He Is given a job on the ground for
while, but as jobs OF this nature
are scarce in this line of industry,
he soon becomes aware Of the fact
that he must look for another line
OF occupation at decreased wages.
He has but a small proportionate loss
OF the use OF his foot, and his earn
ing power. IL based on the wages re-
celved, is the same as before the in
Jury for tho time being, but his loss
OF earning capacity can not fairly be
measured by the per cent. Of loss OF
use OF function or by present earning
power.
+, The Delaware law also provided
for the payment of a specific indem-
nifty for the loss of an eye or for the
loss of the use of an eye. There was
no authority for graduation for the
percentage OF loss OF vision. Unless
the loss Of percentage OF vision was
reflected in the earning power, an
award for compensation, other than
that provided for the loss OF an eye
or the loss OF use OF an eye, could
not be made. As an illustration, a
glassblower who. from the intense
heat incident to the occupation, had
cataract develop on one OF his eyes
which, while causing him some in.
convenience. did not affect his earn
ing power. In a short time cataract
developed on the other eye, and ht
became totally incapacitated fol
work for more than two years. Op'
erations having been performed or
both eyes and having been fitted
with proper glasses. he secured en-
ployment at an occupation whicl
which pays we'll enough to permit
him to live comfortably, but WITHOUT
the aid OF the glasses he can no
earn anything. Thus through an ar
tifcial medium, a permanent tota
disability, to be compensated for tbs
maximum amount payable upder th'
law, became a perm ahent partial dis
ability TO be compensated on th'
basis OF loss OF earning power. Beinl
thoroughly convinced that this meth

A Material Difference.
APANESE

APANESE opinion, as under
stood here, makes the claim that
- if there is to be an "open door"
for the white race into the Far East,
there must be an "open door" for
the yellow race into the three Ameri-
cas-. Japanese opinion CONSTITUTES the
Monroe Doctrine to constitute a de-
NAL of this guild pro quo.
That view, of course, is erroneous.
The Monroe Doctrine forbids Old
World colonization in the New, but
puts no barriers in the way of peace
full trade. The Monroe Doctrine
bars forcible seizure by foreign
Powers of New World soil, but
leaves the doors of commerce swing
ing freely.
The best evidence that this is so is
found in the large dimensions which
foreign trade has attained in all the
Americas, Japanese trade included.
There is no support for. Japanese
imperialism in any accurate inter
probation Of the Monroe Doctrine.
If Japan were to duplicate that
doctrine in Asia, few Americans
would object. -.>
But instead of using her strength
to guarantee the independence and
integrity of weaker neighboring ma
tons, japan uses it to browbeat, an.
mex and exploit them-a decided diff
ference.
1t is this difference which makes
all the trouble.
