Head Matter:
In the Matter of the Claim of Jack Ostroff, Respondent, against Kipnis Bros. Radiator Corp. and Another, Appellants. State Industrial Board, Respondent.

Claimant's weekly wage was fixed at forty-six dollars and sixteen cents. After the accident it was twenty-five per cent less. An award of eight dollars, being the minimum under subdivision 6 of section 15 of the Workmen's Compensation Law, was made instead of seven dollars and sixty-nine cents, which is sixty-six and two-thirds per cent of the diminution. Award unanimously affirmed, with costs to the State Industrial Board. Present — Hill, P. J., Rhodes, MeNamee, Crapser and Heffeman, JJ.
