and award, Commissioner Noonan
wrote: Presumably Section 5345
was enacted by the legislature to
take care Of this very type Of case.
We understand that it had been
assumed that large employers Of
labor would parcel out their work
to contractors. none Of whom
would have more than four en-
ployes, and hence there would be
an escape Of compensation liabil-
ity by the principal employer. II
this claimant is not covered by
Section 5345, then the statute
might just as we'll be taken of the
books. The respondents are quib-
bling that washing windows Is no
part Of the business of manufac-
turing ball bearings and in an
elaborate brief recite various cases
based on statutes not worded like
ours to support their contention.
Our courts have been liberal in the
construction Of the compensation
act, and I fail to see where this
claimant is not within the protec-
ton. of. the so-called sub-contractor
statute. If he is not, then the door
is open for employers OF labor to
parcel out their work to contrac-
tors, none of whom will have suf-
flcient employees to be subject to
the act. and hence there will be
wholesale evasion Of responsibility.
II Section 5345 means anything at
all 1t means that this claimant is
entitled to the protection of the
compensation act"
