Head Matter:
Charles F. Durning, Respondent, v. Automatic Machine Products Company and Another, Appellants.
The Workmen’s Compensation Law does not give to the physician any claim directly against the employer or insurance carrier for the value of services rendered the injured employee. His claim under the law is limited to a lien on the compensation awarded to the employee, which should include the amount of the physician’s charges as approved by the Commission. Order reversed and motion granted, without costs.

Opinion:
Jenks, P. J., Thomas, Putnam, Blaekmar and
Kelly, JJ., concurred.
