industry by Mayor La Guardia
of New York to move to that
city would have produced at
least a ripple of interest in
Hollywood. But not now. The
motion picture potentates
agree with the mayor when he says
that New York's city, that it is
the center Of the theatrical business
and so has more actors than any
other town-an important fact now
adays, when so many people are
coaxed from the stage to the screen.
But none of the mayors argu-
ments can Offset the fact that the
motion picture industry has an in.

Hollywood studios, which couldn't
possibly be moved to New York or

gal Contingent Fee
Practice
. (By Ohio Labor News Service)

Columbus, O.-A sweeping investi-
cation Of illegal contingent fees
charged claimants and dependents Of
killed workmen for representation be-
fore the Industrial Commission and
the courts has been under way for sew
eral weeks by local Bar Association
committees with the sanction of the
Ohio Bar Association, it was revealed
last week.
The investigation was brought to
light when the three members of the
Industrial Commission, Chairman John
w. Beall, Will T. Blake and Clarence
j. Knisley conferred with Governor
John w. Bricker on the contingent fee
problem, which the Commission has
been attempting to overcome for some
time.
Governor Bricker recommended to
the Commission that they continue to
cooperate in the investigation and SUBJ

mately 25 cases involving several Co.

cessive fees are charged against the
lawyers.
In some instances, Commissioner
Beall said, in addition to the $500 fees
allowed for court cases where full
death awards are being considered, at

clients for as much as SO per cent OF

LABOR LEADER DIES

Cincinnati, o. (OLNS). - Harry
Kruck, 81, prominent in local labor
activities and for six years treasurer
of the Central Labor Council, died
July Is in st. Mary Hospital of pneu-
monia after an illness of one week.
He had served as business repre-
sentative of International Molders' Lo-
cal Union No. 4. Shortly after the
World War he was stationed in the
Panama Canal Zone as an officer of
the Molders' Union.
Besides his widow, Mrs. Florence
Kruck, he leaves two daughters.
Funeral and burial services were held
in Cincinnati, his native city.

illegal, reaffirming similar decision
handed down in 1895.

illegal, reaffrming a similar decision
handed down in 1895.
Some attorneys specializing in work
mems compensation cases have ignored
the previous ruling Of the court on
contingent fees, and the Commission
has been helpless in protecting claim
ants from these extortionate charges,
due to the fact they were informed of
them only after the fee had been paid,
in which case the claimants only re-
course was civil action to recover the
illegal portion of the fee.
In it's most recent decision on con-
tingent fees, made two weeks ago, the
Supreme Court in effect ordered Harry
Payer, Cleveland attorney, to return
$2,825 to client, collected from a
death claim award to a Cleveland
widow who had signed contingent
fee contract.
The Courts action reversed rulings
of the Common Pleas and Appellate
Courts which had held valid release
signed by the client.
Another blow was struck at at
torneys who have been reaping a
financial harvest at the expense Of
claimants for workmen's compensation
by the 93rd General Assembly, which
enacted law limiting the amount of
accrued compensation in modified
awards to two year period.
Attorneys had found lucrative
field in such cases by waiting until
several years had elapsed, before in
forming their client that he might be
entitled to additional compensation
for an old injury which had become
aggravated by his employment.
In this manner, they participated
under contingent fee contracts in ac-
crued awards as far back as ten years
Under the recently enacted amend
ment, the accrued amount is limited to
two years, with the claimant receiving
the balance Of the full award in equal
payments.
The action of the Legislature and
the decision of the Supreme Court are
hailed by the members of the Indus.
trial Commission as long and pos.
sibly last forward step in breaking W
a practice which in recent years has
grown to racket proportions.
