Like Workmen's Compensation,

Sub. HB 358, although very mod
crate by the time it had been amend
ed into such shape as to be accept
able to the Senate, was still, in the
Governors opinion, too generous.
The bill, as passed by the House,
would have increased maximum week

maximum number of weeks from %
to 26. {The U. S. Department of La

recurring efforts of out-of-state in

it through the House with votes to

to come out of that house on an i'm
portant issue this session.

In 1906 members of the Philadel-
phia Journeymen Cordwainers were
tried for criminal conspiracy after a
strike for higher wages. The charges
were (1) combination to raise wages
and (2) combination to injure others.
The union was found guilty and fined.
Bankrupt as a result, the union dis
banded.

workers in any plant or business, by
secret ballot, chose a union for it

HB 81, carrying out the intent of
another plank in the 1858 Democratic
platform, passed the House by IL

Workmen's Compensation

There will be no improvement in
Workmen's Compensation the next
two years because of another veto
by the Governor. Sub. HB 333, al
though amended downward in the
Senate. survived there only because
Lieut.. Gov. Paul Cannon broke a
27-27 tie with his faye" vote, fol-
lowing a long fight by Mahoney of
Sanders and Dussault for it's ap-
proval Earlier it had passed the
House with only a scattering of op-
position votes.
Sub. HB' 333, as presented to the
Governor. provided for weekly bene-
fit increases ranging from SO for a
disabled worker with one dependent
to SIS for a man and five or more
dependents. Maximum weekly pay
ment would have been $57.50-a size
able gain over the present $42.50
maximum, but still several dollars a
week less than Public Welfare would
consider a subsistence living level.
Senate approval came after amend
ments were put in the act reducing
the maximum benefits and assuring
employers of no rate increases un-
less annual pay-outs exceeded 80
per cent of employer premium in
come. Until two years ago Plan III
of the act averaged 80 per cent pay
out of every $1.00 premium over its
40-year history. Two years ago the
comp. board decided to set up a re-
serve fund. To do so, rates to en-
ployers were lacked up out of all
reason-some doubled This past two
years, pay-outs have amounted to
only slightly over Ga per cent of
premium income.
This limitation on the Industrial
Accident Board proved unpalatable
to the Gocernor, and so, disabled
workers will continue to have to
augment their meagre compensation
with assistance from Public We'll
fare. This means a couple Of million
dollars per biennium load on Public
Welfare which shouldn't be.
Original HB 333 was introduced
by Powers, Emmons, McNally, Eli
ing, Battin, Healy, Mernin, Picard,
Clancy and Cavan.

333 follows:

81 Minimum Wage

Once again, as in 1857, the Senate
proved the shoal on which the hopes
of low-paid workers for a 81 mini
mum wage were wrecked. HB 20 by
Helding and others had a narrow
squeak in the House, almost going
down because of an inspired cam
paign of opposition by some employer
groups. Surviving the House by a
45-43 tally, the measure died by an
unrecorded vote in the Senate when
II Democrats forgot this plank of
their 1858 platform. Among those
supporting HB 20 in the Senate were
Mahoney of Sanders, Siderius, Nc
Kenna of Fergus, Reardon, Ander-
son of Lincoln, Durkee, Ruane, James
and Keister Opposing HB 20, among
others, were Mackay, Spear, SEQ
field, Wilson, Lehrkind, Stein, Hibbs
and Dussault.
Other sponsors of HB 20, besides
Helding were: Sheldon of Lincoln,
Karlberg, Strnisha, Emmons, Clancy,
Healy and Picard.

Occupational Disease
Compensation

Labor's long-sought effort to place
occupational diseases under Work
mems Compensation finally made
the grade this session, when a reason
ably good law, covering a specified
list of diseases was enacted, and re-
ceived Gubernatorial approval.
Originally introduced by Hibbs
and Mcdonnell, the bill, SB 112, was
disowned by the sponsors after Ma
honey of Sanders had successfully
secured placement of a number of
amendments in the measure. These
amendments included elimination of
the ''waiver'' clause Hibbs and Nc
Donnell had written into the bill. The
incorporation of a waiver by en-
ployees of compensation benefits in
order to obtain employment would
have meant Montana would have an
occupational disease law in name
only-would have made it possible
for mining and smelling firms and
other industries to continue avoid
ance of responsibility for compensa-
tion for workers disabled by disease
contracted in the normal course of
employment.

1t, dltilouSH ledVlHS extra 1U-Weef
provision as was. In addition, the
Senate cut to $25 from $28 millior
the minimum the reserve fund coulC
reach before the maximum 2.7 pei
cent of payroll premiums would auto
matically go into effect against en-
ployers.
The Governors veto not only de-
MED to possibly 10 per cent of the
covered job force, who would use
up all their benefits two weeks addi,
tional comp, and So more per week.
it also brought much nearer the spec
tire of employers having to again
pay the 2.7 per cent premium. AT
present, average employer premium
is 1.2 per cent. This is so because
the $28 million minimum also stands
as result of the veto. Earlier, UCC
officials contended that without any
additional benefits being provided,
the reserve fund would drop below
the $28 minimum some time this fall.
