The downpour, while adding to their
discomfort, was probably the greatest
boon the stricken district could have
asked, for It extinguished innumerable
fires that broke out immediately after
ihe tornado had passed.
The rescue work was carried on fast
and tonight it appears that all the
homeless are belns; cared for by char

the more seriously Injured have re
ceived medical attention. In many
cases private homes ware turned Into
temporary hospitals.
Harrowing stories of tbelr experi

the eyes of the rescuers, whose atten
tion was often called to the dying,

by agonised screams for aid. Some
died before they could be freed from
the wreckage, and others, while re
moved, will die.

Many freaks were played by the
wind. Dr. Mahlon Moore was asleep In
his office when the storm broke. The
building was demolished, but the doc
tor, lying on the mattress of his bed,
was carried across the street and
dropped safely on the sidewalk.
Babies Escape lajnry.
Mr. and Mrs. Paris Everett, whose
home was destroyed, were blown two
blocks, and when they rushed back to
the debris of their cottage they found
their two babies In the wreckage un
injured. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Runyon. who
were tossed across several lots, re
turned to their bungalow to find their
6-months-old baby asleep in its crib.
The child did not awaken until after
It had been carried across town in an
automobile.
The storm seemed to be worse at
Gardentown, a small colony five miles
south of Terre Haute. There it de
molished everything in Its path, killed
two persons and left a lane half a mile
wide through the village. There, as in
Terre Haute, tne majority cf the vic
tims were wonting people of small
means. They now have nothing left
but the lots upon which their homes
stood. Perth, a small town in Clay
County, with a total of 400 Inhabitants,
was practically wiped off the map.
Every home lu the village was de
stroyed or badly wrecked, but only one
person was Injured.

ed and Claims Allowed for 1 1,5 1

Disallowed by Body.
OLTMPIA. Wash., March 24. (Spe
cial.) Figures In a report, which will
be Issued about April 1 by the In
dustrial Insurance Commission of . this
state, will tell an Interesting story of
the success or the Washington work
men's compensation law during the first
vear and a half of its operation. It
will be shown that the law which was
enacted by the Legislature In 111 and
which will close the fcrst nan oi its
second year's operation April 1 ha3
worked out to the benefit, of the labor-
ng classes to a much greater extant
than did the old system of court set
tlement of personal injury claims.
It will be shown that up to March 1
there was paid out to injured workmen
a total of J85I.934.S7. There have been
17.S25 accidents reported and claims al
lowed for 11.561 workmen. A totai of
36S7 claims have been disallowed, sus
pended or waived, 688 'Cases are in
process of adjustment and reports of
1473 cases are incomplete, it wm utj
shown that of the cases In which
claims have been allowed close to 90
per cent would have been without
recourse under the common law.
The report will show that there nas
been Invested in interest-bearing re
serves to guarantee pensions a total of
$417,929.63. The net balance In the
accident fund is 8S19.178.E1. The gross
expense of the commission has been
8143. 292.40 and tne expense oi uoms
business has been but 8.2 per cent. A
total of 6500 firms have been listed
and assessed under the act and have
paid into the accident fund a total oi
11,589.042.71. A total of 145.000 em
ployes in hazardous industries have
been listed and protected.
System Bolsts; , Watched.
Th renort will be particularly in
teresting because of the fact that Wash
ington is the first state to enact ana
carry out a compulsory state Insurance
law. The workings of the system have
been and still are being watched crit
ically and expectantly throughout the
United States, and even in some of the
foreign countries. The commission has
answered inquiries from nearly every
state in the Union regarding tne law.
and some of the states have sent rep
resentatives to Investigate tne system.
The law in the first place deprives
the courts of Jurisdiction over claims
for personal Injuries against employ
ers by employes In the lines of indus
try outlined In the law and classed as
"hazardous" or "extra hazardous."
These Industries are enumerated in the
act as follows: '
Factories, mills and workshops where
machinery is used; printing, electrotyp
lng, photo-engraving and stereotyping
plants where machinery is used; foun
dries, blast furnaces, mines, wells, gas
works, water works, reduction works,
breweries, elevators, wharves, docks,
dredges, smelters, powder works, laun
dries operated by power; quarries, en
gineering works, logging, lumbering
and shipbuilding operations, logging,
street and lnterurban railroads; build
ings being constructed, repaired, moved
or demolished; telegraph, telephone,
electric light or power plants or lines;
steam heating or power plants, steam
boats,, tugs, ferries and railroads.
. Industries Are Classified.
The Industries are classified and the
rate of assessment Dasea upon iu
roiativa or comparative danger to
workmen In the various lines of labor.
Powder factories being tne most oan
remit are assessed the highest. As
sessmenta for some of the other trades
run as low as an eighth of the amount
of the asessment charged to powder
factories. The assessments are maae
nn the total payroll of the employer.
Tho monev is naid by the employer
to the State Treasurer prior to jan-
... 15 vear. It goes into uie
workmen's accident fund from which it
Is paid out to claimants as needed. The
law requires the Legislature in this
.mi, n nnnroDriate money from all
tte funds before it can be spent, and
for that reason It is necessary lor eacn
session of the Legislature to appro
priate an amount out oi tne tuna aui-
fM.nt fn meet the demands whlcn rea-
nnihiv mev be exDected upon the fund
during the blenniura following the leg
islative session.
At the last session $4,000,000 was
appropriated from the fund. This was
a "paper" appropriation, being merely
a form to enable the expenditure of the
money put Into tne lunci oy tne tax
on industry. No nioney is drawn from
the general fund or other funds of the
state for the support of the compen
sation system, the entire work being
kept up by the tax on employers.
"First Aid"' Prpvlsloa Lacking.
rf manv defects found in the li
by tho offtclals who administer it, the
most Important is saia to oe mo ioiii
of "first aid" provisions, wnat is
needed. It is said, is a fund from which
can be paid the hospital, medical and
surgical bills of injured workmen, in
manv rases at present tne worxman
lingers in the hospital for a long time
and his bills eat up a large part of the
amount he Is paid from the accident
fund.
Efforts were made at the last ses
sion of the Legislature to put through
a bill providing a flrst-ald system, but
it was found impossible to settle the
question of whether the state, the em
ployer or the employes themselves
should provide the funds for the car
rying out of the plan and for that rea
son tho proposed "first-aid" measures
were all smothered in legislative com
mittees. Of various other difficulties which
have developed In the operation of the
law the following, as outlined by C A.
Pratt, State Industrial Insurance Com
missioner, are the most serious:
"Pension allowance to widow and
more than three children, now limited
to $35 a month, is often Inadequate for
their support and often must be aug
mented from other sources.
Disabled Mis Gets SO.
"A workman totally and permanent
ly disabled receives only $20 a month.
This is often not enough to pay his
board, and Is never enough to pay for
constant attendants, such as patients
paralyzed from injury must have.
"There Is no penalty for conceal
ment of payroll or failure to report
hazardous operations to the commis
sion. This results in many remote and
semi-private Industries remaining un
known until a disabling accident oc
curs; then the accident fund muBt
stand the cost and the commission get
the emploj-er'a contribution If it can.
"The act la not sufficiently supported
by safety standards, so that the care
ful employer is required, in a measure,
to pav for the losses of the careless
employer, unless tha business of the
latter Is conducted In a plainly care
less - and negligent manner, in which
case the commission may raise, lta
rate."
The commission at present Is operat
ing the law under a number of draw
backs, according to Mr. Pratt.
"The powder mills class Is a sore
spot" with us in this state," he says.
"This Is owing to the refusal of the
Dupont Company to pay its contribu
tion into tha accident fund. Suit has
been brought by the Attorney-General
against this concern and a settlement
out of court is among the possibilities.
The Dupont situation shows the weak
ness of small classes in which the
hazard is great, although In this case
the tension Is made greater oy me ou
ter rivalry between the Dupont Com
pany and the Imperial Powder Com
pany, of Chehalis. the disaster in the
nlant of the latter being the prime
cause of the failure of the Dupont
Corrfpany to make its contribution.

problems have been magnified by the

It was announced at Good Sa

Miss Emily L. Loverldge, superin
tendent of the hospital, who was
operated on by Drs. George H,
Wilson. A. 3. Giesy and S. a
Josephl last Tuesday, was quite,
ill. Three days following the
operation Miss Loverldge seemed
much better, and some intimate
friends were received, but her
door yesterday bore the card "no

In Portland but all over the
Northwest.

printed and placed on the desks of the
legislators In Olympla ana baiem.
The pension rolls of the commission
now bear the names ' of 287 widows,
fatherless children arfd helpless par
ents, with a payroll of $3925.50 per
month. There are six totally disabled i
pensioners who are unable to do any
kind of work. Out of the hundreds of
applications for lump sum compensa
tion by dependents, few have been
granted. Penniless widows have been
given' traveling expenses to their
homes in Scotland,' Norway and Austria-
Mortgages have been paid on
three or four homes, in which pension
ers had a real equity.. One woman
pensioner received a small cash ad
vance to fix her teeth and a pensioner
on the totally disabled roll was given
a small advance to buy himself a wheel
chair. Lump sums to purchase real
estate, to go traveling for health, to
pay doctor bills, to buy clothes, etc,
have been denied.
In each case where money has been
advanced some member of the com
mission has made a personal Investiga
tion of the beneficiary's condition and
circumstances. In this sort of adjust
ment, the commission Is given a wide
margin by the law, and the care ex
ercised over the reserve funds for
paying widows and children pensions
is nothing' less than paternal.
Dealt a Day Is Averaare.
Approximately one death : for each
day of the year represents the toll
levied on the Industrial workers of
the state by the hazards of employ
ment. So far 287 deaths have been
reported to the Commission. Out of
this number pensions have been paid
to the dependents in 172 cases. A total
of 152 have been suspended or rejected
on account of no shown dependency,
while 63 are under Investigation or in
complete. That the workmen are satisfied with
the compensation scale fixed by the
commission is shown in the fact that
only 38 claimants out of 17,825 have
appealed their cases to the Superior
Courts. Out of this number 12 have
been settled, four withdrawn and four
are pending. In the 16 cases disposed
of the reasonableness of the commis
sion's surgical scale of compensation
for permanent injury has not been
questioned, all appeals being so far
decided on questions of fact.

PETITION FILING NECESSITY
Xo Constitutional Amendments Nor
Initiative Measures May Be Voted
On Under Terms of Act, Says '
Official to Olcott. -
SALEM, Or.. March 24. (Special)'
No constitutional amendments nor ini
tiative measures .may ' be voted on at
the special election to be held on the
first Tuesday after the first Monday
in November. 113, under the terms of
the Day bill, according to an opinion
handed down by Attorney-General
Crawford today for Secretary Olcott.
Secretary Olcott asked the two fol
lowing questions of the Attorney-General:
"What measures can be placed
on the ballot under the said aot and
does the act call for an election wheth
er or not referendum petitions are
filed?"
The Attorney-General held that In
event no refcrendlnr. petitions are filed
no special election will De held. After
citing a number of cases and dwelling
upon sections of the statute and the
constlutlon, the Attorney-General says:
"It is plain from the above that if
the Legislature desired to have the
proposed amendments to ' the constitu
tion voted upon at the special election
It must so state and that must have
been the purpose or one of the purposes
for which the election was caiiea.
"Instead of including the constitu
tional amendments in the call, the Leg
islature specially designated in each
resolution proposing an amendment
that it should be presented to the peo
ple for approval or- rejection at the
regular biennial election In November,
1914, thus Indicating, its own construc
tion of the act calling the special elec
tion. Special elections being called
for a particular and specific purpose,
the call must state what is to be voted
upon 'at the election.
"Therefore, In answer to your first
question, we are of the opinion that
no measure can be placed upon the
ballot at the special election, if the
same be held, except those on which
the referendum is invoked by petition,
and that no initiative measure or any
measure or constitutional amendment
referred by the Legislature can be
placed on the ballot
"As to the second question we are
of the opinion that no election Is called,
nor any can be held, under the act, un
less a referendum petition is filed. The
calling of the election depends upon
the filing of a referendum petition.
BULLET SLAYS BOY FRIEND
Cowlitz Lad of 8 Instantly Killed by
Playmate Aged 10.
CENTRALIA, Wash., March 23.
(Special.) One of the most deplorable
accidents in the history of Cowlitz
County occurred yesterday when 8
year-old Kenneth Curry was shot
through the breast and instantly killed
by his playmate, Robert Barr, Jr., aged
10 years, the shooting taking place in
the dooryard of the Curry horns on
Globe Creek, ten miles east of Kelso.
The two children had been at play and
in some manner had obtained posses
sion of a 38-caliber revolver. The Barr
boy playfully said, "Throw up your
hands," at the same time pulling the
trigger of the weapon and loosing tht
bullet which carried death to his little
friend. -
The entire Coweeman Valley Is grief-
stricken today as a result of the ac
cldent. The parents of both children
are well known, Robert Barr, Sr., being
superintendent of the Cowlitz County
Logging Company's camps. Con Curry,
father of the dead boy, is foreman of
the Alger Logging Company's camps
and has been a resident of the uowee
man country for many years. Coroner
Bales decided an inquest to be un
necessary.
