NEED LAW,
CLAIM
Department Of Sociology at
C. U. Cites Need of Com A
pensation Statute.

If proper conditions for the
working man in the District of
Columbia are to be maintained,
Congress must enact an accident
compensation law for the 100, 900
wage earners in private employ
ments here, according to a pre-
liminary report made public to-
day by the department of soci-
olOgy of, the Catholic University
of America. Lack of this legis-
lation, the report declares, is
now causing an "a. .oalling extent
of distress and destitution among
the families of injured workers
in the Nations Capital"
Recommends Insurance.
The report. which appears in the
current issue Of the Catholic CHAR.
ties Review, concludes that the pc
culiar conditions in the District can
be met adequately only by provid-
ing workmen's accident Insurance
! which eliminates the professional
insurance adjusters.' the method
provided in the Fitzgerald Jones
bill now pending in Congress.
without q workmen's accident
compensation law" the report con.
tinues, ''workmen are receiving
neither medical care nor cash in
settlements sufficient adequately to
recompense them for injuries re-
ceived in employment. 1t is also
evident that serious injuries entail
ing much loss of working time and
hardship are sufficiently frequent
to make it urgent that Congress
lose no time in enacting an ade-
quite workmen's compensation law" +"
District Is Lagging. 4
Forty-two States and three terri.
tories have accident compensation
laws, the report states. Congress has
also adopted an act to protect Fed
eral employees whichrwas broadened
to include all civil employees of the
District of Columbia, yet Congress
has never enacted even as much as
an employers liability act for pri-
vate workers in the District.
Astudy of cash compensation re-
covered in lightweight accident
cases, 1t is stated, shows very de.
ctdedly that SO per cent of these
cases got nothing. while 1871 per
cent received less than 800, and
only 22.7 per cent got over 800.
One workman who lost his right arm
obtained a settlement of $4,000, of
which 5000 went to his lawyer. I'm.
der a workmen's compensation law
such as that Of New York, he might
have received $6,24O."

DC. STRUCTURE
IS UNIQUELY
BUILT
Only One Constructed Since
SoIomon's Temple That
Contains No Iron.

There has been only one building
constructed in the past 1000 years
without the use of iron. The last
one, before this, was erected, it is
believed. under the superintendence
of Hiram Abiff Of the Tribe Of
Napthali and was known as Solo
mons Temple. This building, the
interior Of which is shown in the
picture, is the standardization oh
servatory of the department OF
terrestrial magnetism, Carnegie. In.
stitution.
In 1t are tested all the magnetic
instruments used all over the world
by members of the institution g
staff, by government scientists and
members of all kinds Of explorar
ton parties. Here were tested the
instruments taken by both Amund.
sen and McMillin, both of whom are
now in the north Polar seas. 1t
ig now testing a set OF instruments
that are to go to Watheroo, Aus
tralia, for the detection of earth
currents, the mysterious magnetic
streaks that run through the earth,
d4O CAAOAhG AAOUOUy
knows where.
Even small quantity of iron. a
magnetic material, would upset
many Of these delicate scientific
instruments. So, when D. J. A.
Fleming superintended the erection
of the building. he saw to it that
no iron was used. Every nail from
foundation to roof Is of copper.
Locks. hinges. bolts, all hardware.
were specially made Of copper. The
guttering is Of zinc. The stove
with which the building is heated
q 1ade Of a special combination
OF lA4stals.
Yet, with all these precautions, II
was found when the instruments
were being tested to go on The
Maud with Anundsen, that they
were behaving queerly, suggesting
the presence of iron in the building,
A search was made for the dis
turbing influence. Somebody had
left steel ink eraser on one OF
the desks.
