HAKRISBURG TELEGRAPH
COMPENSATION
DECISIONS GIVEN
Half a Dozen Problems Set
j tied by Board; Steelton
I Case Is Finally Decided
A woman engaged as an assistant
matron at a boarding school and
injured by falling from- a porch
where a light was not burning as
usual is entitled to compensation
according to a decision by the State
Compensation Board in the- claim
of Sellers vs. Beechwood school,
Jenkintown, just rendered. She does
not come within the provision that
the act does not cover domestic ser
vice, although in an emergency she
might be called upon to help and
oversee necessary work about the ,
housekeeping. The decision was
given after a new hearing. The
claimant. Mrs. Minnie M. Sellers,
lives in Chambersburg.
In the case of Appleton vs. Le
high Valley railroad, Easton, referee
is reversed and compensation dis
allowed. It is found that the de
cedent was discovered dead beside
his engine and that the fact that
he was preparing an engine to start
on interstate business brings the
case within those wherein compen
sation can not be granted under
Federal decisions. It is held in the
claim of Wood vs. National Milling
and Chemical Company, Fox Chase,
that compensation can be awarded
where injuries "have accelerated
pre-existing diseases to a fatal end."
A new hearing is granted in Shalter
vs. Keystone "Vehicle Company,
Reading, and compensation is re
fused in Poling vs. Frick Coke Com
pany, in a claim of mystagmus, an
occupational disease.
In dismissing a petition to set
aside a receipt in Ali vs. Pittsburgh
Coal Company. Chairman Harry A.
Mackey says "We feel that to alter
the status in this case in the slight
est degree would be only to hold out
an inducement to men suffering
slight impairment to lay down on
their injuries and not to put forth
a manly effort to rehabilitate them
selves."
A teacher falling and injuring his
knee while on the way from his
home to take a bus provided under
contract by a school district em
ploying him to take him tcr the
school is not entitled to compen- |
sation is the ruling in Leitner vs.
Millcreek school district, Newmans
town.
The appeal is dismissed in
Charles Busisoch, Steelton, vs. Hoff
man Bros. & Wilson, Hasrisburg,
Referee Cummings being sustained.
Kahn Sees War Tax
Laid as a Penalty
New York, Oct- 11. —Declaring that
the revenue bill, now before Congress,
discriminated against the industrial
states and the business classes, Otto
H. Kahn, of Kuhn, Loeb and Company,
speaking last-night at a dinner of the
National Industrial Conference Board,
at the Hotel Astor, asserted that those
primarily in charge of the taxation
program were influenced "by sectional
and vocational partiality."
After pointing out that as a class
the farmers are exempt from the ex
cess profit and war profit taxes, and
apparently not effectively reached by
the income tax, Mr. Kahn asked
whether it was conceivable "that the
politicians who are so rigorous in
their watchfulness that no business
profit shall escape the tax gatherer
would not devise means to lay an ef
fective tax if the same situation ex
isted in a business industry."
"Turning aside from this interroga
tion mark," he continued, "I will only
add that there are numerous taxes of
a tried and tested and socially just
kind—some of them applied in this
country during the Civil War and the
Spanish War—which would raise a
very large amount of revenue and yet
would be little felt by the individual.
Some of them have been suggested to
our legislators, but they have not
found favor in their eyes. .
"Their nonimposition, taken to
gether with the entire character of
our taxation program, the burden of
which falls to an enormously prepon
derant extent upon the mainly indus
trial states and the business classes,
not only proportionately, which, of
course, is Just, but discriminating,
which is not just, seems hardly ex
plainable except on the theory that
the intention of those who were pri
marily in charge of framing that pro
gram was punitive and corrective, and
that they were influenced —though I
am willing to believe unconsciously—■
by sectional and vocational partial
,ty" -
