T H E WAY FAKE
COMPENSATION
LA W S OPERATE
Bogus Michigan Law
Not for Workers
BY Young Worker Correspondent

ny young worker correspondent.
DETROIT, Mich, April z - In
Michigan state, for protection" Of the
workers, exists a so-called compensa-
ton law which says that when a work
er is damaged in the process Of his
work the employer is responsible. But
IN practice it is otherwise. The en-
ployers are protected against this law
by insurance in some fake insurance
company. This can be best illustrated
by an instance. y
A girl by the name of Dorothy
Acker, working in the brush factory
of A. Laitner & Son, standing 8 hours
day on damp cement floor, got her
feet chapped and one became infected.
She Immediately, according to the
compensation law, reported to the
boss. The boss sent her to his in
surance company, the Globe Indemn-
lity company, New Jersey corpora
ton. The company sent her to their
doctor. The doctor charged her, not
the boss, $500.
Infection Spreads
Meanwhile the infection progressed
farther and farther. She called an
other doctor whom she paid and 1t
was found that to save her it was
necessary to operate at once. And
because she was poor and could not
afford to go to a hospital which in
Detroit is extremely expensive, she
begged a private doctor to operate on
her at her home.
Gets Bill.
The doctor did and treated her after
wards for weeks till she was able to
resume her work at the factory. When
he sent bill for $4,000 to her boss
and the boss, being insured, sent this
bill to the Globe Indemnity Co., the
doctor received a letter. 1--WE have no
reason to believe that this injury is
Of traumatic origin and we would not
be interested in any bill for service
rendered to her." And besides this,
for the weeks she was in bed she
did not receive any pay.
Thus we see that the very laws sup
posed to be for the benefit of the
workers are perverted to the interests
of the employers and insurance
sharks. aeL %

the Canton government. Chu-Chin-
Min spoke in the strangest of all Ian
guages TO an Anglo-Saxon, but it could
be felt that his sharp, high-pitched
speech was veritable war cry against
foreign imperialism. His reception
was a demonstration of the close feel
ing between the peoples Of the east
and the workers, soldiers and peas
ants of the soviet union. The demon
stration was enthusiastic and pro-
longed, and ended only when the sol
diers' orchestra broke out in the
strains OF the International. The
workers and soldiers, who occupied
all the available seats and standing
space from the stage to the topmost
gallery Of the theater, in their warm
greeting to the Chinese general re-
fected the feeling Of the masses OF the
Russian workers and peasants toward
the eastern peoples.
Chu-Chin-Min, dressed in a quaint
APRON and blouse, small and quietly
self.composed, but with wiry
strength and abundant energy. took
his place in the speakers stand. A
Chinese student who knew German
translated TO Bucharin as the speech
went on, and Bucharin then translated
the speech to the audience in Russian.
Again there we're storms OF applause
and again the International was
played.
Allies Against Imperialism.
Chu-chin-M who had few days
previously addressed the meeting OF
the enlarged executive Of the Commun-
list international, greeted the masses
of workers and peasants Of the soviet
union in the name Of the exploited
Chinese masses and declared that the
aims of the Chinese and Russian
masses were the same. He greeted
them as an ally In the fight against
foreign imperialism IN China.

HOW IT STARTED


:Mueh discussion regarding the origin of the
Strenuous dance called the Charleston has been
going on. without any authoritative decision the
question.
sAfter reading up on the subject to some ex-
tens we are inclined to accept the following
version: ~ 80
It happened on South Carolina farm, not
far from Charleston. The farmer. armed with q
pitenfork and accompanied by hound dog, caught
yeung negro in his chicken coop. jab at tie
darby with the pitchfork made him do the first
step A bite from the hound in the seat of his
trousers produced the second step. Continued
jabs with the pitehfork, alternated with the hounds
bites. perfected the dance. which has taken the
coustry by storm.
The next time you see the Charleston danced,
watch the movements closely and you viii probably
conclude that ii could have been evolved in no
othsr way.

WOULD MAKE Two STATES OF FLORIDA

The editorial writer on the New York Sun
has taken notice of the mildly agitated movement
to separate Florida into two separate and distinct.
states to be called North Florida and South Flor
ida and attributes the movement to the small army
of Republicans who have invaded this state from
the G. o. p. regions of the north. The New York
paper does not attempt to indicate the sentiment
of the original Floridians the subject and it is
expected that they taking little interest, if
airy, in favor of the movement
In its issue of February 10 The Sun COM
ments interestingly on the proposed plan for max
ing two Floridas as follows:
1.-TWO FLoRIDAs?
"The Florida Republicans, many of whom
have seen years of party service lin Ohio, Indiana,
Iowa and other points North, are not content
with talk of carrying the State. They want to
cut Florida in two. w. G. Lawson of Orlando,
ization, makes the startling announcement. He
would have North Florida and South Florida
and thus add forty-ninth State to the Union.
"The arguments are simple Tallahassee, the
Floridian capital, is a long way from Miami. And
Miami, as everybody knows who has been there is
the center of the civilized world. Why should the
Miamians drop their development maps population
100000 in 1866 and ride all night to get egis
lation? Sign on the dotted line petition to make
Miami the capital of South Florida-if Tampa, St.
Petersburg and Sarasota have no objection.
"Also there is the matter of taxes The
hackers of the two States idea greve for the north
end Of the State, which has to pay so much toward
the development of the bounding south end But
wouldn't that injustice be mended in time? With
values in the south going to heaven knows what a
front foot southern Florida ought to be able to
pay all the taxes of all the nation excepting in
come and inheritance.
cit viii be suggested by suspicious persons that
Mr. Lawson and fellow Republicans wish to separate
emigres, from northern Florida which retains the
Democratic tradition in almost perfect condition
"such suspicion win be unjust. Guile and
craft it is well known, cannot exist in the Florida
climate. The sunlight obliterates the germs of de-
ceit. The juice of citrus fruits picked at golden
dawn from your own trees kills the bacilli of un-
worthy thought. Insincerity is as unknown as are
fur overcoats Even in Key West men will tell the
stranger frankly that the thermometer sometimes
rises TO rs in the summer. - - ~ s -
tropical one will send Republican to the Senate.
Maybe the 0keechobee Drainage Canal is choked
with ice."

At the Navy Department the other day, sum
was received from Thomas Norris, of No. $40
West 1s0th Street. New York, to help along the
fund which is being raised to reconstruct the
famous frigate Constitution, even better known al
"Old Ironsides.n
Memories and associations of a remarkable
kind are linked with this contribution of Mr. Nor
ris. He is not only survivor of the time when
"old Ironsides' was in active commission, but
actually had sailed in the ship. It was as quar-
termaster that he accompanied the Constitution
on her last voyage nearly SO years ago.
1t is gratifying to know that there is a for
mer officer of "Old Ironsides" living. Unique in
terest is impaired to the fact by his appearance
in the role of contributor to the rebuilding fund
There is element of pathos in the incident
of the gift. To have voyaged in "oId Ironsides'
is an experience of which to be proud. But what
recolections must have thronged the veteran
mariners mind as he mailed that cheek to the
Navy Department. Memories of many a gallant
sailor dead and gone, and thoughts of days never
to return, must have mingled with the satisfaction
with which he gave of his substance to help rebuild
