hearty and his appearance indicated
good health. He was hard-working
and industrious man, and an expert
at his trade and enjoyed the conf
dence and respect of all who knew
him. The funeral took place at Baton
Rouge last Monday at II o'clock a.
M, with services at the Catholic

COMPENSATION LAW
 CHANGE PUZUING
Commissioners in Doubt as to What Actual Cost" Really Means.
 in Substance.

The i've compensation commission CTS met at Hartford Wednesday aft ernoon at the office of Commissioner George B. Chandler of the First dis trict to discuss the amendment to the compensation law passed by the last session of the General Assembly. The amendment provides that:
 "The liability of the employer for hospital service shall be the amount 1t actually costs the hospital to render the service, said cost to be deter mined by the commissioner"
 The matter of the "actual cost" of services rendered by hospital is the point that is bothering the 'comms- sioners, the question arising as to whether the hospital has the right to include in it's actual cost the interest on the investment in the hospital plant and the interest on the endow- ment funds of the institution. Com missioner Chandler has invited repre- sentatives of the Hartford, New Brit ain General and St. Francis hospitals, the Hartford County Manufacturers Association and the Travellers, Aetna and Hartford Accident & Indemnity Insurance companies to meet at his office to discuss the matter more fully. Ii is likely that the other dis tricts will abide by the decision of the Hartford districts and will not hold meetings in their own districts.
 The commissioners also drew up budget which they will submit to the board of control.
