MOISE, Justice (concurring in part and dissenting in part) : While I agree with the majority in their application of jurisdiction on the prior appeal, I cannot follow their holding that personal living expenses which reasonably would have had to be deducted from earnings should not be considered in arriving at the award. Sufficient evidence was presented to furnish a basis for a finding. I do not agree that a finding was not requested by defendants, or that they agree that the proof submitted was not sufficient. To the contrary, while contending that they should be permitted to offer additional proof, they argue that they are nevertheless entitled to the deduction based on the proof presented. Except for what is said by Judge OMAN concerning the jurisdictional question, I concur in his opinion.
