COMPENSATION LAW
MUST Be AMENDED
Continued from Page d


when work at Fort Peck COM
menced; men wanted work; they
flocked to Fort Peck from all parts
of the country in the hope of getting
a job. So great was the crowd in
Glasgow that hotel accommodations
were exhausted; people had to sleep
in the chairs of the hotel lobbies and
in the passenger depot. Under these
conditions the insurance companies
had no trouble in forcing their order
to take the physical examination. A
man, after travelling a thousand
miles to look for work, either had
to take the physical examination or
remain idle. H wanted a job and
tai and was operated on. The insur-
took the examination.
Taking the physical examination
required by the insurance companies
does not guarantee a worker, who
happens to be injured while at work,
compensation for injuries received
as per the provisions of the Work
mems Compensation Act. Hundreds
of those injured at Fort Peck will
vouch for this.
One case came to the attention of
the writer: It was a young man who
had taken the physical examination
and was given a job operating a
jack-hammer in one of the shafts
to the tunnels. Something went
wrong with the hammer and the
man was injured. He received a
rupture and was taken to the hospi-
ance company paid for the operation
but refused to pay the injured
worker compensation.
The injured worker, after spend
ing months trying to get lawyers
interested, applied to the union for
relief although he never belonged
to a union in his life. The union
took his case to the Industrial Acct
dent Board. The board investigated
the case but found that a problem
existed. The insurance company
doctor who performed the operation
claimed that the injured man suf-
fered from an old rupture, The doc
tor who examind the man before he
went to work said that the man had
never been ruptured before. The in
surance company offered to make a
compromise settlement by paying the
injured man four weeks compensa-
ton. The Industrial Accident Board
ordered that the mar receive TWEEN
ty-six weeks compensation, How
ever, the injured worker had to wait
two years for his compensation.
Considering the adventure of the
insurance companies at Fort Peck
with thir physical examinations, the
best remedy for the whole situation
is for the works. to repeal Plan Two
of the Workmen's Compensation Act.

The United States should remove
at once the grievance that Japan has
against us in the immigration law.
This law is humiliating to Japan
and other Asiatic nations and could
be removed without creating any
serious labor problem, for on a 2 per
cent basis it would involve only $50
people coming in from all Asia each
year. This is infinitesimal in a ma
ton of 100 millions. Regardless of
Japan's attitude in this war we
should remove this stumbling block
to international accord and should
do it even while this war is on. This
is our own moral problem and we
should settle it regardless of the
actions of the other party involved.
Two wrongs do not make n right.
If we ask Japan to respect the
political and territorial sovereignty
of China we must ask the rest of the
nations to do the same. We there
fore suggest that extraterritoriality
be renounced by all nations at once,
except where China of her own free
choice asks for its continuance

The first time l really learnt any

report was the first and last activity

ness. If l had not learnt then Of
the lengths to which American CAPT
