Recent decisions by state judicial bodies affirming the
rights of injured workers and their dependents to COM
pensation for certain types of industrial accidents show
with what persistency employers and insurance COM
panies continue their attempts to vctimize the workers
by fighting their claims for just awards.
In Ohio an employee was struck by an automobile and
killed while walking to his work inside the employers
plant. His dependent filed a claim for damages under
the WOrkmens compensation act. The claim was fought
on the technical ground that when he was killed the en-
ploye was not at the specific location required by his
work.
The Ohio supreme court swept aside this subterfuge.
1t decided that an employe entering the premises of his
employer to begin the duties of his employment but who
has not yet reached the place where the service is to be
rendered is discharging a duty to his employer which is a
necessary incident to his days work.
In Washington a timber worker died from cerebral
hemorrhage sustained while under unusual exertion in
saving a log. The claim OF his dependents for compen-
sation was contested. 1t was commended that the killed
man had hardening of the arteries and that therefore his
death resulted from physical imperfection and was not
attributable to the work he wa doing.
Medical testimony admitted the diseased condition of
the mans arteries, but declared his death would not have
occurred at the time except for the physical exertion.
The Washington supreme court sustained the claim
for compensation on the ground that ut was not the
Legislatures purpose to limit the provisions of the work.
mems compensation act to only such persons as approx
mate physical perfection"
In the District of Columbia a worker died from sun
stroke while working in the open air loading a truck
when the temperature was 81 degrees. The application
OF MS wife Tor compensation was contested on the ground
that the man was killed by abnormal heat to which the
general public was subjected and that the fatality was
not due to any special hazard due to increased heat re-
sulting from his occupation. The District Court of APP
peals decided that the mans death by sunstroke was an
accidental injury which arose out of his employment, and
directed the United States Employees Compensation
Commission to award compensation.
Workmen's compensation laws were enacted by our
states largely through the influence of organized labor.
The laws were not passed for the benefit of ~self-insur-
ing employers or companies which write compensation
insurance for private benefit. They were passed to pro-
tect the workers and their families.
State compensation boards, self-insurng employers and
insurance companies should recognize the broad prin-
ciples of protection underlying the compensation laws.
They should stop compelling the injured workers and
selves from the injustice sought to be imposed upon
them by technical and hair-splittng Interpretation of
compensation laws.

URGE HOOVER-ROOSEVELT TICKET FOR
ECONOMY AND CLARITY.

Chicago-Nomination of Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt
by the Republican convention as the running-mate of
President Hoover was urged on the Republican conven-
ton here in a wire sent to Chairman Bertrand H. Smell
by three liberal and Socialist leaders.
The telegram was signed by Prof. Robert Morss Lovett,
of the University Of Chicago; by Haywood Broun, COL
umnist and Socialist; and by William E. Guinea, Farm
er-Labor candidate for states attorney in Cook county,
Illinois.
The three joined in urging the nomination of Governor
Roosevelt for the vice presidency and the ratification of
the Hoover-Roosevelt ticket by the Forthcoming Demo-
cratic convention as a step which would promote economy
and also lead to clearer thinking on the part of the
public which is more than puzzled as to why there should
be two parties standing for the same thing"
The telegram urged that the merging of the Demo-
cratic and Republican campaigns under a Hoover-Roose-
welt ticket would leave Norman Thomas and the Social
lists as the opposition"
The telegram sent to Permanent Chairman Smell fol-
lows:
"Hon. Bertrand H. Smell, Chairman,

I'm view of virtual identity Of Republican and
Democratic parties, respectfully suggest that you
