hours.
He advised the nations business
men to "get together with labor"
and bluntly told them that there
was no sense in the present strikes
in coal and steel.
On the "get-together" angle, he
warned that business had better
learn to cooperate with labor for
IT'S own good-as well as that of the
nation.

Contractors Meet and Resolve and
Resolve On State Injury Payments

The board of directors of the
Arizona Contractors Association
met in Tucson the other day and
resolved and resolved and resolved.
The resolutions all had to do with
state laws covering workmenS COM
pensation and disability claims and
the whereases told what the con-
tractors want to do about it. AS
usual, there is to be a floor on pay
ments to injured workers. "max-
imum amount of wages which may
be considered in computing claims"
The board of directors would also
set up an impartial and independ-
ent" claims ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
ably stated with a complete set of
"schrooges" to make sure that pay
ments were kept down to bedrock.
Another resolution calls for a
free rein for private insurance
firms-to remove restrictions on
the rates they may charge-in
order that they may start writing
policies in competition with the
state agency.
The aforementioned B of D was
also unhappy over a commission
order to the effect that employers
had to make new application for
insurance coverage for compensa-
ton, declaring that it was illegal,
arbitrary and void-as well as
being sacrilegous and probably un-
constitutional. It wants the gov
ernor and the Legislature within
the legislature"-the interim COM
mittee-to take immediate action.
There was one thing that clearly
Arizona sun., 1949-10-28

came within the province of the
contractors orbit. There was one
other resolution that had to do
with contractors that sug-
gested changes in the contractor
registration law. The association
wants some qualifications set up
before issuance of a license. 1t
seems that the public is sometimes
misled in thinking that just because
a contractor has a license, he
knows what he is doing.
