DOUBLE CROSSING

Hospital Fees Prevent
Him Aiding Bosses
10y Worker correspondent.)

LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas, Oct. s.
The company doctor" double-cross
put on many an injured workers has
CHANGED to get little setback in the
decision Of the supreme court of Ar
kansas in the case of worker who
was injured on the Missouri Pacific
railroad.
He paid the hospital assessment
with other employees to the Missouri
Pacific Hospital Association. When
he was injured he agreed with the
claim agent of. the company to go to
st. Louis and be examined as to the
extent of his injury by the chief sur
geon of the associations hospital
there, with view to agreeing on a
sum Of money in settlement.
Sues for Better Settlement.
After the examination, however, the
worker could not agree with the claim
agent on the amount to be paid him,
so he entered suit for damages against
the company. Then came the st.
Louis doctor TO the court and, over
THE protest Of the workers attorney,
the judge allowed the doctor to testi-
fly against the worker.
The argument Of the workers at
torney, now upheld by the state SUI
preme court, was that the doctor was
bound, under the law which shuts out
communications made by a patient
to his physician, from testifying
against the patient-the point being
that the doctor was the doctor employ
ed by the worker, and not by the rail-
road company, it being held that the
hospital fees collectsc from all the
workers and paid over by the COM
pany to the hospital association, made
the doctor the personal physician of
! the worker.
Company Doctor" Paid by Workers.
The court held that 1t made no diff
ference about the agreement with the
claim agent to be examined. The hos.
pital was sustained by contributions
OF the employees, and all physicians
and surgeons under pay by the asso-
citation were physicians and surgeons
of the employees.
If, after his examination, he wished
to refuse the terms of settlement Of
fered by the.claim agent, that was his
right, even tho he had also intended
to receive treatment by the surgeons,
this did not constitute waiver Of his
privilege to sue the company there
after. 1t was an error of the trial
court to admit the testimony of the
company DOCTOR asla

suggestion Of officials of the Near

"He will study particularly the re-

will give counsel regarding possible
enrichment of the program" copy
of The Scout Executive, a national
monthly publication of the boy scout
movement, significantly explains.
Moreover, when General Halter,
Polish militarist, visited the United
States he invited Leonard Gabryele-

parentage, to visit Poland and inter

his steamer passage having been
given him by Halter.
The summer training camps in this
country have been increased and ex-
banded this year, not only for the boy
scouts but also for executives. The
number of professional scout execu-
tives is increasing rapidly and the
organization is taking on more and
more militaristic character.

Especial to The Daily Worker

FLORENCE, October g. Premier
Mussolini has interviewed In Florence
after a weekend of ricting and serious
disorders.
Trouble started Saturday night
when fascist raided the house of
Bondinelli. from whom they sought
an explanation of his political activ-

home, Bondinelli fired and killed
Signor Luporini, local fascist leader.
The blackshirts then swarmed into
the house and severely beat him.
He later died Of his injuries.
The outbursts continued thruout
Sunday and last night and became so
serious that Premier Mussolini sent

TOLEDO PRIMARY
PLACES TWO W.P.
men ON BALLOT
BY BRUCE 7. SMITH.

TOLEDO, Ohio, Oct. s.-While our
activity for the requisite number Of
signatures to admit Workers (Com-
munist) Party candidates into the pri-
mary or prediction monstrosity met
with success, the fact still remains
that the city charter, thru constitu-
tional trickery, unquestionably intend
ed to completely eliminate working
class candidates from the real cleo
tons in November And by equally
heroic activity, this was only partial
ly defeated.
However, we came thru with one
general candidate for vice-mayor and
one council candidate for the TWEEN
tieth ward.
Our first opportunity for real action
was thru an invitation to candidates
to address the Stckney avenue home
corners celebration in connection
with a carnival that was doing the
people of that vicinity for one week.
The aspirants were all present.
We have tremendous bond issue
running up to better than thirty-two
million Of dollars to be voted on at
the November election. The news
paper reporters we're there and re-
ported me as saying / did not know
much about big bond issues. knew
more about little gas bills, telephone
bills, grocery bills, shoe bills, etc.
Which was very degrading to one
seeking such a high and important
office.
Some doctors are willing to take
oath that they can immunize children
against future contagious disease. And
this big bond issue is a sort of i'm
munizing process of thieves against
future prosecution for past theft. It
is not really a popular viewpoint with
political embezzlers in any part OF the
world, however, it bids fair to be-
come more popular as time unfoadS.

SHIPPING BOARD
TAKES SLAP AT
PRES. COOLIDGE
Another Teapot Dome
Scandal Looms

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. S.-The
United States shipping board, long in
conflict with the Coolidge administra-
ton took direct slap at the presi-
dent yesterday by removing Admiral
Leigh Palmer as president Of the
Emergency Fleet corporation. Palmer
was personally selected by Coolidge
for the Office from which he is now
relieved. Elmer B. Crowley, of Boston,
until yesterday operating manager Of
the American Export Line, under
direction of the fleet corporation, was
selected at the same session to take
the place of Palmer.
Climax of Long SquabhIe.
This action of the shipping board
was the climax of long and at times
bitter struggle against the efforts Of
the Coolidge administration to CEN
tralize the powers of government. The
board, under the Craftsmanship of the
ex-labor faker O'Connor, has taken
the position that it is an independent
agency created by congress and is
solely responsible for the conduct Of
the governments shipping business.
Coolidge has steadfastly refused to
accept the boards estimate Of its
powers and has commended that his
man, Palmer, as the agent Of the
executive Of the government had full
administrative powers.
This attitude Of Coolidge caused the
shipping boad to openly oppose the
president. A crisis was reached on
last Thursday when majority of the
members of the board made public
their desire for the removal of Palmer
Coolidge, in an effort to overcome the
crisis, appointed H. G. Dalton, Of
Cleveland, Ohio, to investigate the
situation and report to him. A con-
ference was held between the presi-
dent and Admiral Palmer, Admiral
Benson, a prominent member of the
board and Chairman O'Connor, at
which time Mr. Dalton was introduced
to them. Instead Of battling the op-
position Of the majority of the board
the action of Coolidge was resented as
a piece Of impudence, and his Cleve-
land appointee completely ignored.
Congress May Act.
1t is an open secret that the ad.
ministration regards 'the shipping
board as overstepping the powers de-
signated to it and that the Coolidge
supporters in the next congress will
raise the question in both houses for
a decisive showdown.
The administration has endeavored
to carry out certain ideas attributed
to President Coolidge with respect
to the management of the merchant
fleet, which represents government
property worth $S5,OOO,OOO, with many
ramifcations in all parts of the world,
and II properly co-ordinated under the
direction of men who will obey the
will of the republican machine will
furnish many soft political jobs for
the faithful

board do not conceal the fact that

the potentialities of a miniature

rushing back to Washington on a
special train while administration
forces in the capital are desperately
trying to avert a storm.
