WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 7.--President
Samuel Gomcrs of tbo
American "Federation of Labor sug
gCiUod radical changed iuthn,.,p re
posed bill drafted by tho employer
liability and w'orkingmen's compensa
tion commission nt today's hearing of
the congressional joint committee in
vestigating the matter.
Kegarding he provisions for the
payment of u lump sum to tho work
man or his dependent, Gompers said:
"There may possibly come n time
when the payment of a lump sum to
a man wholly inenpeitated for work
may be an advantage to him, but
there would bo a great risk in its in
vestment. 1 think it would bo better
to snfogunrd him and his dependents
by weeekly and monthly payments,
thus saving them from charity tfnd
pauperism for life. Tbo chances of
a man entering into competition with
concentrated wealth arc not promis
ing." Gompers suggested Hint tho pro
posed bill requiring each railroad o
pay its own compensation for men in
jured upon it bo changed. Ho said;
"There should bo n power somo
wbero to provido tho best possible
protection for both pnssongors nnd
employe on tho railrond. If tho rail
roads contributed to a general fund
for the injured employes it would
prompt those with tho moro offeeti'.o
