What Would Happen?
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 ing that a citizen s property may
' he taken for a public use without
just compensation established in
an impartial proceeding, or a law
fixing an excessive sum as bail or
apply a cruel or unusual punish
ment. "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."
