Power of Accident Commis
sion inAdmiralty Cases to
be Tested
Whether the state industrial ac
cident commission has legal author
ity to .settle claims in admiralty un
der the workmen's compensa ion act
will be determined through two
mandamus actions to be filed in the
Oregon supreme court, by Mrs. Fan-1
nie West of Portland and Mrs. Her
bert H. Winsiow of Salem, to com
pel the secretary of state to audit
their June allowances for compensa
tion alleged to be due them for the
deaths of their husbands.
Ilosrtl Ilrjerts Claim!
Filing of the mandamus proceed
ings followed the refusal of the state
industrial accident; commission to
pay any more -claims m admiralty
as a rerult of a recent decision of
the United States supreme court in
the suit of the Kinckerbocker Ice
company vs. Stewart, in which it
was held that the New York accident
commission had no jurisdiction in
settling admiralfy claims.
Mrs. West's husband was killed

Iron works in Portland, while Mr.
Winsiow was drowned while en
gaged in the operation of a ferry
plying the Willamette river between
Salem and Polk county. Both men
previously had been accepted as J-is"
under the compensation act.
Many Cases Affected
Should the Oregon supreme
court's ruling be similar to that of
the United States supreme court In
the New York case widows and chil
dren of 18 men killed ia industrial
accidents and twice that avmber of
partial disability cases will b ar
fected. The action of the accident
commission in refusing to pay the
June claims in admiralty under the
compensation act was not doe In a
desire of the state to deprive the
beneficiaries of their allowances. lul
was for the purpose of getting
speedy action In the courts to de
termine the legal status of the com
mission In these cases.
Mrs. West has two children, ami
under the recent Increase in pay
ments authorized by the accident
cmmimon, is receiving s.t.0

leaders in congress cried aloud for
the repeal of some of the measures

they would have the country know.

war has ever been unjustly used
against the people; that a single cltl

disloyalty against the nation; that
any man has been punished for ex

charges to the contrary, but in each

Is very injurious, as It dries the

You Do Better Here for Less
They have been and art
forced with as little Injury to tne
welfare of the country and rights of
individuals as possible. I dou t
know that I would even care to de
fend any policy that I have deemed
essential to the fullest protection of
the national Interest. That would
be too much like offering an apology
where one Is not needed. I do not
believe that my course calls for ai
apology of any kind.
"The Republican and not me
Democratic policy hss been respons
ble for any bad effects that have re
sulted from the failure of the Repub
lican aenate to ratify the Versailles
treaty and the covenant of the
league of nations. The Republican
policy of negation baa been persist
ed In for the sole purpose of advanc-
Inc Renubllcan chances for winning
the coming presidential election and
has never reflected a sincere desire
to ameliorate the effect of the mea-
protectlag the
country In. time of war. The Repub
lican policy has been rather to e-
aggerate the effect of these meas
ures. "
The president declined to d Incuts
candidates for the Democratic presi
dential nomination.
"I have the rreatest faith. he
Id. "In the Intelligent apprecia
tion by the delegates who will as
semble at San Francisco two weeks
hence to write the platform and
nominate the standard bearers of
our party. They will have before
them the Republican platform aaa
will have estimated the effect of It
on the people generally. They will
have from whom to select caadldates
for the presldentlsl and vice presi
dential nominations a number of ei
cellent men. I should not want t
express and preference or opinion re
garding either individuals or plat
form, expresslona which might laflt-
ence the minds of men whose votes
will ultimately decide loth.
I hope and believe that the plat
form to be adopted at San Francisco
will be more progressive and clear
er In understanding than that enun
ciated by the Republicans at Chi
cago. The character of the men wno
wM sit as delegates la the San Fran
risro convention should be suffic
ient gusrantee that the Issues upon
which the campaign Is lo he-fought
will be met with definite and con
crete statements and not cloudy and
ambiguous terras aa wsa the rase to
the Chicago convention.
'I have not raised my hand or
voice- the president continued, "to
aid In the promotion of any ambition
for the Democratic presidential nom
ination and I shall not do so. I
think that the leaders of the par.y
and delegates who will sit In the
San Francisco convention will earn
estly try to provide a platform and
candidates that wi" attract greater
support than those put forward by
the Chicago convention. 1 am alo
confident that the Democratic lead
era and delegates will hold the full
est appreciation of their obligations
to the party and to the people. It Is
unthinkable that any Iemocrat
should for an instant be Influenced
by the selfish and sinister motives
that lie back or the Republican plan
to stultify and discredit the United
States in the eyes of the world.
"I do not believe that they will
permit themselves to be led astray in
order to gratify the vanity or pro
mote the uncharitable or selfish Im
pulses of any Individual."
"The Republican convention be
added. " was the apothesis of reac
tion. It was the direct antithesis of
what I hope the Democratic conven
tion will turn out to be. The lead
ers who csll themselves progressive
and who pretend to speak for the
progressive element In the Republi
can party sacrificed every principle
that made attractive the movement
of eight years ago in order to grati
fy the ambition of some of the pres
ent day leaders to prevent the peo
ple of the United States from fulfill
ing their honest obligations to the
rest of the world and to themselves.
The abandonment at Chicago of the
.progressive spirit wss woefully tra
gic. I hope and believe that the
tragedy at Chicago will provide the
