Files Appeal
DisagFees With
Compensation
Ruling on Injuries

A workmen's compensation APP
peal was filed in Superior Court
today by James Rosa Of lis Glover
street, discharged veteran. who lost
out on claims that he was entitled
to disability payments, based on a
work accident, while in the service.
Former Compensation Commits
sioner John J. O'Connell ruled last
week that Rosa should receive 1884
weekly starting with Dec. 6, 1874
for partial disability from a back
injury sustained earlier that year
when employed by the Turner Con-
struction OF New York City.
The commissioner ruled that Rosa
was not entitled to payments fol-
the period he was in the Army
starting June Is 1914. Rosa was dis
charged Jan. IS, 1914.
The decision held that it was not
possible to measure the earning
capacity of a person in the service
and pointed out that many men
in top physical shape held the rank
Of private.
Rosa, who was a private, had
asked for payment of $l7.52, hall
of his pay when he was civilian
while he was in the service, or else
half of the difference between his
former pay and that as a private.

successor to Colonel Costigan. Sup
porters cited the fact Mr.. Gerard,
although defeated in last years
election, led the Republican ticket
with a majority of All votes. His

crate failure of the Independent
Democratic ticket to endorse him
while endorsing all other COP can
didates.

1t was not disclosed today just
whom Mr.. Bersen has placed on

tor last year.

Col. Costigan's resignation, as re-
ported, is said to be promised prin-
cipally on "Intra- party" pickering

ing OF the Board OF Aldermen the
Republicans held caucus, at MI
Bensen's behest without calling Al
