ness Inaugurated the scheme, C. D.
Babcock. member of the Compensation
Commission, upon his return from Port
land today, said a move had been start
ed to refer the workmen's compensa
tion act and to test the constitutional
ity of the Day bill providing a special
referendum election in November.
He charged that the object was to
delay a vote on the act until the 1914
election. I '
'Petitions to refer the act are being
clrculatd in Portland." declared Mr.
Babcock. "Of course, the casualty men
and ambulance-chasers are keeping in
the dark, and strenuously deny that
thev are connected with the movement.
The plan Is to tie up the bill by refer
endum and then go Into tne supreme
Court and test the constitutionality of
the Day bill.
'If the snecial election can be de
clared illegal the compensation act will
not become operative until arter its
approval by the people at the Novem
ber election, 1914.
If the act is referred there Is little
doubt that, at the first opportunity,
there will be Initiated a bill providing
for a comprehensive system of state
insurance. It is not improbable that
the comnensatlon act will be made
compulsory, and the writing of liability
insurance in this state by private cor
porations will be absolutely prohibited,
as has been done in Ohio."
