Whfct would happen, has been af.ktd. if the proposed amendment t,i the workmen's compensation law should become a law ? Briefly, these things would bap pen: "It would wreck the present guod compensation law. which guarantees everv working man specific compensation and proper care, when injured. "It would replace this certain protection by arbitrary rules of three men, who could as easily be unfair, narrow and prejudiced as they could be just. "It would again mark the return of ambulance-chasing and shyster lawyers who, prior to the opera tion of the present compensation law, waxed fat on the misfortune of the laboring man. "It would take from the state legislature 11 power to correct any evils in the law. No matter how glaring or injurious these evils might be, the people of Oregon would be powerless for at least a year and a half, to make any changes whatsoever. The people could not even vote to direct an audit of accounts, nor to investi gate any of the commission's ac tion, nor to remove an unfit com missioner, however urgently re quired. "The amendment would, in fact give politicians such dangerous powers that conditions could easily be made intolerable for our work ing people; our farmers and our industries. "There is no need for it. The present law is a good law. The worker knows that the rates of compensation for injuries are fix ed specifically by law and if a man is treated unfairlv, he can appeal to a jury. The proposed amendment would sweep awav all these'rights now guaranteed, and manv others. "Oregon's 47,000 farmers could be forced to come under the com pensation law and would be com pelled to pay into the State Acci dent Fund and submit to its arbi trary dictation. In addition to ex tra financial burdens, they would have to make reports and open their books to state inspectors "A three-man political commis sion would be created with legis lative, judicial and executive pow ers that would be final. This would take from the working men, farmers, and industries their basic rights of appeal and of fair hear ing before a jury. "It would create a commission that would be above the law an swerable to no other authority and as such, it would be judge and jury of its own actions. "It could make its compensa tion awards to injured or crippled j men as little as it pleased ; it could : delay payments of compensation. arbitrarily raise the workmen's ; rates, or refuse to extend medical j treatment, and an injured work-! man, or his dependents, would have absolutely no right of appeal to an American jury. "It would automatically create a state medical and hospital trust, because the amendment specific ally forbids employer and em ployee alike, to provide medical and surgical care, except under the monopolistic control of the commission. "It would force an injured and sick working man to receive treat ment from doctors of the commis sion's choosing, or go without, or near the hear.' expenses of pri-!; Me trea'ment himself." Oregon I'uter. I EE "The Defense r.f Our Lib- j erties." In a clc-ar statement of the dan-. per involved in tampering with ! the authority of the United States j 5 Srpreme Oiul. liberty magazine ' s'vs t iitp-ially: g "What oilJ h:i'-n'.-n if Con-jS irtss or on..- c the IfjJ-.latures of i i Mite shou!

"But, there are political leaders who profess to be friends of hu man liberty and progress, who propose to deprive the Supreme Court of the power to declare such laws unconstitutional, pro vided Congress passes them again after they have been declared un contitutional by the courts. 'It is argued that Congress will always respect these rights of the individual asserted m our consti tution. "Experience refutes this argu ment. That is why the founders of this republic gave the protec tion of our civil rights to a separ ate and co-ordinate branch of gov ernment. The purpose of the founders was to protect the indi vidual in the enjoyment of his rights as against any agency of government, whether executve or legislative, for they knew from experience that a parliament or legislative bodv could and would oppress as well as a monarch or other executive. And subsequent experience proved the founders were right. "The American system of lib erty is founded on the principle that there are certain rights of the individual of which he may not be deprived even by the will of a ma jority. That principle is the most precious of our possessions as a free people, and the propsal to deprive the Supreme Court of its power to defend it is a proposal to destroy it." s-s-s Will Increase Taxes.
