 THE MEDICINE RECOMMENDED The payment Of s106SO is the medi- cine with which Compensation Commits sioner James J. Donohue of this city hopes to cure Trifon Antonuck of Hart frol of the injury he received on March E. 1921. while working for the Colts Patent Fire Arms Manufacturing com pany. The hearing which Commissioner Donohue acting in behalf of Commis- sioner Chandler, has just held is the second one in the Antonuck case and the only issue involved was the extent of the mans present incanacity
 Regarding this Commissioner Donohue says: He either stimulates an unusual degree of pain on motion. or actually be- lieves he has pain" The man cracked one of his ribs at the time of his injury and the commissioner says: By allow ing his mind 10 dwell on this minor in- jury. he has reached a stage where he has become rather useless to himself and everybody else" The decision continues The quicker any thoughts of compensa. ton are eliminated the sooner he will become a useful member of society"
 In order 10 accomplish this end, in. comm issioner has ruled that the compt,, sation the man might receive be naid tc him in lump sum of S106.s0 and that he be given 10 understand that this pay. meHt ends his case.
