City of Baraboo Wins
Schuetzler Case; SUI
preme Court Holds
City Not Liable

On Tuesday the supreme conrt
handed down decisions of appeals
argued in December Among 9TH
err decisions rendered was setting
aside the award of the industrial
commission of Wisconsin against
the city of Baraboo. One Law
renee Schuetzler OF Genesee, H.

March goth, 1920 while assisting
Homer Jeffries in repairing the
city's fire alarm system. Law
renee Schuetzfer was then single

Gustave Schuetzler, his father, FL
ed a claim for dependency assert
ing that he was dependant upon
his said son for support.
The city OF Baraboo resisted the
allowance of any sum whatsoever
to Gustave Schuetzler on the
ground that Gustave Schuetzler
was not dependant upon his son
Lawrence for support and upon the
further ground that Jeffries. as
janitor Of the city hall had no pow
er to bind the city of Barabdo in
employing Lawrence Schuet2leT
to render the service which result
ed in the death of Lawrence Schuet
zler.
After numerous hearings on the
subject the industrial commission
held the city OF Baraboo to be re-
sponsible for young Schuetzler's
death and made an award against
the city of Baraboo. The circuit
court of Dane county on the city's
appeal affirmed and upheld the
award OF the industrial commits
sion. The city OF Baraboo then
appealed to the supreme court and
the supreme court held as above
indicated that the city is not
liable and wholly vacated and set
aside the award of the Industrial
commission in favor Of Gustave
Schuetzler

Peculiarly to Maine belongs the
pursuit OF shipbuilding. From the
earliest days this business has had
a substantial. and at times predomi-
nant, place in the industrial life Of
the Kennebec Valley, particularly
near the mouth of the river.
For decades during the last CEN
tury this State was the chief builder
of merchant sailing vessels. her ship
yards turning out the most and the
largest of this class in the United
States. Shipbuilding in the original
Il colonies strictly had it's beginning
in Maine.
In 1907, 10 years before the land
ing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth,
there was built by the Popham Col
ony, at it's settlement near the mouth
of the Sagadahoc, now the Kennebec,
a Cotton pinnace, from lumber sawed
from the trees along the bank of the
river.
That shipbuilding should become
an industry of prime importance in
Maine was assured by the possession
of vast supply of superior ship
timber, which was readily available.
White oak, white pine, beech, birch,
rock maple and hackmatack were to
be had everywhere in convenient
proximity to the places along the
coast adapted to shipbuilding. No
other state equalled Maine in this
regard.
The substantial beginning Of ship
