ing Garrett.
The Senate went through four roll
call votes before the bill went to the
printers to be readied for final vote.
A motion to table it was defeated 16

similar count and Senator Kimble,
Republican floor leader, offered an
amendment to exempt Allegany, Gar
rett, Carroll and Washington counties
from provisions of the bill 1t won

Allegany county delegations to An
napolis will be held Thursday, Feb

Would Revise Law On
Occupational Disease

Two Republican senators from
Western Maryland, with special in
terest in mining in Allegany and Gar
rett counties, introduced a bill in the
legislature last Friday to provide that
all occupational diseases be covered
by the states workmen's compensa-
ton law
Senators Kimble, Allegany, and
Fraley, Garrett counties, sponsored
the measure, which they said now was
operative in % states.
Kimble, Senate minority floor lead
er, said that the Maryland law lists
"a specific occupational diseases to be
recognized by the Industrial Accident
commission. He declared that this
was discriminatory and that any per-
son acquiring any disease from his
work should be entitled to compensa-
ton benefits. The new section of the
Kimble-Fraley bill declared;
Every employee who, in the regular
course of his employment, is iniur-
iously subjected to an exposure to an
occupational disease, shall be deemed
to be engaged in an eXtra-hazardus
employment within the provisions of
this article, if such occupational dis
ease is one arising naturally out of
said employment"
Compensation would be payable for
death, as we'll as injury.
Legislators pointed out that the
Maryland Court of Appeals docket
contained more appeals from rulings
of the Industrial Accident Commits
sion on workmen's compensation in
Guiding occupational disease, than any
other matter.
A measure also was introduced to
