MAKE CHANGE IN
WORKMEN'
SEVERAL AMENDMENTS TO COM
PENSATION ACT WILL GO INTO
EFFECT JULY

Pierre. April 15-The last session
Of the legislature amended the work
mems compensation law in several
particulars, the principal one being in
a change in the amount of compensa-
tion TO be paid for injuries.
The law as it exists and will con-
tinue 10 the first of July fixes the
maximum weekly payments which
may be required at s12 a week. with
IA minimum of $3.50. The law as
amended fixes the maximum at SIS
per week, with a minimum of $3.50.
An attempt to increase the death
benefits TO $4,000 was rejected by the
Legislature
Beside this there were several
minor amendments which are intend
ed omake the law 4 little more
workable Under the existing Law
where death occurred 10 the bread
winner OF the farmily. and 4 widow
and children We're left. il was held To
be necessary to secure the appoint
ment of a guardian for the children
and administrator of the estate be-
fore payments could be legally made.
This meant delay when the cash was
most sorely needed and the law was
amended to eliminate this provision
so far as payments under the work
mems compensation law are concern
ed
Another amendment prohibits pay
ments to. relatives where they do moi
reside in the United States. There
was no discrimination under the old
law. but this provision, which is con-
tanned in the law of several other
states, was inserted.
Under the existing law. a hearing
is presumed to be held at the place
of injury, when, in fact. where in
jury occurs in remote places the best
interest of all concerned are met by
holding the hearing in some nearby
town, and the industrial commission
er is allowed by an amendment in
the law to take this into considera-
ton, and the same act gives direct
authority to the department to meet
the cost of transcripts of records of
hearings, which has not been given in
the past
Under the existing law, when in
jur or death is caused by the third
party liable the claimants may
bring suit against the third party or
collect compensation under the
workmen's compensation law.
In this case the employer is given
the right of action against the third
party for any payments made. The
amendment allows him to bring a
damage suit for any amount he may
desire against the party, and after
reimbursing himself, for payments
and expenses TO turn over any bal
ance so collected TO the claimant un-
der the workmen's compe nsation
law.
A few other minor changes were
made but the above are the principal
features in which the law was chang
ed. These changes go into effect
July 1. the old law controlling TO
that date.
