Attorney Slops Workmen's Bill Dan Dimick, former stale scna lor and chairman of the Senate Labor 4t Industries Committee, testified Tuesday in Salem before the House Committee on Labor and Industries in opposition to passage of the Three-Way Workmen's Com pensation Bill which has cleared the Senate. The bill would dras tically amend the compensation law of the slate. In his testimony Dimick stated that enactment Into law of Scnutc Bill 370 would add $4 million per biennium to the administrative costs of the agency; that employ ers' premiums for S1AC covered employes would be Increased by 19 per cent effective July 1, 1903, and that more than 300 slate employes would be added. I The former senator was also critical of that part of the pro posed law thai makos.it manda tory for over 100,000 employers and employes in non-hazardous oc- cupallons to come under the ac cident law and to pay premium for on-the-job accidents that,- ho said, rarely, If over, occur.

University President Robert F. Gohcen, bristling angry at a press conference Tuesday said the riot ers were guilty of nothing less than inexcusable "hooliganism."

The arrested stu dents were released in $2.1 bail each pending a hearing May 20 on disorderly conduct charges. The mob of students staged a panty raid at Westminster Choir College, set off fireworks and sirens, blocked and stoned a pas senger train, unleashed a salvo of cherry bombs at the governor's mansion, and rolled a one-ton com pression machine downhill into traffic. The compression machine slammed into a light standard. Gohcen told reporters 15 hours later the rioters lacked any ex cuse, "nor can their conduct be brushed aside by 'spring madness' 'boys will be boys' or any such euphemism." He asked persons in town who suffered loss or damaged prop erty to submit bills to the dean of students through the borough administrator.
