DILL WILL NOT
SEEK OFFICE
But Washington Senator
Reserves Right to
Change His Mind

SPOKANE, Wash, Aug. q
(UP)-Senator Clarence C. Dill
of Washington has had enough Of
public life.
His farewell" to politics was
given in a statewide radio adj
dress in which he said he would
not be a candidate to succeed
himself this fail for the Demo-
cratic nomination.
ut is my present, intention new
er to seek public office again, but
as a sovereign citizen L reserve
the right to change my mind
should an occasion arise to justi-
fly that" he said.
Observers and numerous candi-
dates, who have filed since his
speech, wondered if that occasion
might arise when President Roose-
welt visits Grand Coulee Dam
August 4.
Senator Dill was considered by
many to have been one of the
driving forces in the presidents
order including the project in the
federal public works act.
In reviewing his senatorial
career the senator said there was
no other office in this govern
ment outside the White House
that he would accept Gin prefer
ence to'a seat in the United States
senate" -

Senator Mcclellan has been in
the United States congress since
1911 when he was elected to the
house Of representatives. Since
1916 he has been member OF the
upper chamber. He is chairman OF

tee. He seeks a fourth term.
National political observers here

. A letter uUritten by an attorney

jurisdiction to the cOmnissiOner

der Section 13 of the COmpens0-
tion Act.
In the case Of Grondine VS..
Hoage Equity 56805, a suit for in
junction to set aside the action Of
the United States Employees
Compensation Commission deny
ing compensation to plaintiff on
the ground that his claim was not
filed with the commission within
one year from the date of injury.
The Deputy Commissioner and
the insurance carrier both moved
to dismiss the bill on the ground
that the ruling of the Commission
is correct in law. The motions
came on for hearing before Mr..
Justice Cox.
There is no dispute as to the
facts as appears form the transcript
Of testimony and the commission's S
findings, which are attached to
the bill as exhibits. The plaintiff
was an employee Of the United
States Fireproofing Company; was
injured December 8, 1892, duly
notified his employer and the in
surance carrier of the injury within
thirty days, was sent to the
employers physician who advised
him that he had sustained a rup-
ture but would not be troubled
with it; and thereafter, went to
Chicago where he became inca
pacitated and was compelled to
have an operation on June 81,
1888.
On returning to the District, he
went to the office of the commits
sion, and explained the case and
his desire to have compensation
for the period of disability and to
be reimbursed for his medical and
hospital bills. No settlement be-
ing effected, plaintiff employed
counsel who, on November 20,
1888, wrote letter to the Deputy
Commissioner. copy of which is
attached to the bill as Exhibit c.
The Washington times., 1934-05-31
Asked Formal Hearing

This letter gave the name and
address of the claimant, stated
the employment of the writer as
attorney to present claim for re-
endorsement for medical and hos
pital expenses and for compenSa-
ton, the nature of the injury, the
names of the employer and the in
surance carrier, the date and ne
ceSSity for the operation, and the
period for which compensation is
claimed; and concluded with re-
quest by claimant for a formal
hearing.
It is alleged in the bill that.
"the record shows that plaintiff
was not requested to file a claim
on Form 303 until December Is,
1888, and that prior to that date
the claim had been investigated
by the carrier and additional in
formation was not requested by
it," Form 303, which was filled
out and filed December 90. 1888,
appears to be a form supplied by
the commission, containing the
following note: ITO be filed with
the Deputy Commissioner in &C:
cordance with sections 13 and 10
of the Longshoremen's Act" No
regulation adopting or prescribing
such form is set out and nothing
on the form indicates that it is
required to be used exclusively.

Is Letter Sufficient?

The question now presented for
decision is whether the letter Of
November 20, 1893, which was re-
ceived and filed, was sufficient
to confer authority to proceed
with the claim.
It appears from the provisions
of the act, and has been uni
formly held with respect to sim
liar acts, that formal technical
procedure is not contemplated.
The act is for the benefit of the
working man and his family. In
most cases settlements are made
without formal claims; but it was
intended, when such claims are
necessary, that the working peo-
pie themselves may make and file
them with the Commission.
Such statutes are to be inter
preted with liberality, "to the end
of securing the benefits which it
was intended to accomplish" and
the claim for compensation has
been considered sufficient, when
the facts of the injury are stated
with reasonable certainty, and it
is also reasonably to be inferred
that a claim for compensation is
being made" Kaplan VS.. Kaplan
Knitting Mills, 248 N. Y. 10, 13.
Referring to the informal no.
tice of claim given by counsel in
the case last cited. the court
said:
"This notice could have been
drawn in much better form,
and the widows claim presented
in much clearer language. She
might have adopted the form
of the commissioner, which
says very terseIy: I claim
compensation There Is no
fatality, however, in failing to
use these forms. Any notice
which conveys to the commits
SiOner that the widow is claim.
ing the compensation and bene-
fits of the WOrkmen'S COmpen-
satiOn. law is sufficient. I think
this notice clearly indicates
such an intention" (P. H.
The Washington times., 1934-05-31
Justice Cox's Opinion

In his opinion Justice Joseph
w. Cox said:
"The letter Of November
20. 1893, from claimants cOun-
sci to the deputy commissioner,
seems clearly sufficient to give
jurisdiction to go forward with
the case. The commissions
blank form which was filled
out and filed on December 20,
1888, merely supplied an
amended and more complete
statement of the claim. (Palle
vs.. Ind. Commission Of Utah,
! Pac. I'd 284.)
ut is thought that no one
can be prejudiced in any way
by treating the letter of NOvem-
Der 20, 1888, as a claim for
compensation under Section 13
Of the Compensation Act.
"The motions to dismiss the
bill are accordingly denied"

in wrong" he explained. He'll be
all right yet. Just you wait and
see. No junk and dump piles for
my boy. He's too smart"
When Joe was released he didn't
return to his home. He did, how
ever, pay his father and the old
neighborhood an occasional visit.
And as the time went by he
seemed to be succeeding at his
work. Nobody knew what that
work was, because Joe never told
his father. But, judging by ap-
pearances, he was doing mighty
well.
His clothes seemed to be of the
best, and he always drove up in
a flashy green roadster that
attracted the kids from blocks
around. He'd insist on slipping
Old Man Schmidt a $40 note
every time he left-and there was
no holding his father after the
flashy roadster had disappeared
around a corner.
"What'd I tell you?" he'd eXult.
Guess Old Man Schmidt knew
what he was talkin' about, eh?
That was Joe. That was my boy.
And in case you didn't know, that
was his car.
II amt much. Wasn't born to
be much, I guess. So whatever I
done, I done for my boy. I hadda
make my livin' by hangin' around
dumpin' grounds - but it's all
worth it now. That was my boy.
My Joe. An you can see what a
success he is. None of my rotten
work for him.
II guess Old Man Schmidt can
be pretty proud, eh?"
You will figure, I suppose, that
Joe was in a racket of some sort.
And you're quite correct. He was
a very small shot in the alcohol
racket-but he made good money
for almost five years. Then he
made the mistake of crossing a
partner. And the papers told the
rest of the story in few lines.
THE body of Joe Schmidt,
small-time alky racketeer," was
the way most of them described
the incident, "was discovered yes
terday morning by two laborers
on their way to work. There were
20 slugs in the body, and it was
found on a barren tract of land
that is used by the city for
dumping purposes"

Keith Establishes
Green Room

Recently RKO Keith's extended
the smoking privilege to the bal
cony in addition to the mezzanine
and this has brought the theater's
management many letters of ap'
probation as we'll as any number
of verbally expressed words OF
pleasure over the Washington in
novation in a first run deluxe mo-
tion picture theater.
Approaching the change with
some apprehension the Keith
management was actually deluged
with words of praise while but one
single letter condemning the idea
has reached the theater.
Another new feature at the
theater on Fifteenth Street that
is meeting with an excellent reac-
ton is the establishment of a
green room where both men and
women may gather to await their
friends or the beginning of the
feature presentation.
