MAN ACCUSED OF STRIKING MAYOR IS ROUND OVER Ordered Held for District Court by Judge Fitzgerald $10,000 Bonds Mayor .' Testifies. "A particularly distressing case came under my observation a few days ago," said the compensation commissioner of Nebraska, "when I learned at a hearing in Springfield, that the 18-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred'Hota of that town was killed in an industrial accident, and his parents will receive no compen sation because they did not know there was a compensation law and the statute of limitation ran agajnst them. "On September 26, T918, young Hotz was assisting another work man to dig a ditch for the board of education of Springfield. The ditch banks caved in on the two men, in- i'urlng one and killing the other. Neither the injured man nor the pa rents of the boy who was killed knew of the existence of the com pensation, law. The man who was injured consulted a law firm long after the accident and this firm pro ceeded on the old common law method to collect damages. When they finally learned that! the case was one to be adjusted under the Nebraska compensation law, the statute of limitation had run against him and the attorney for the school, board stood pat Parents Tell Story.. "It was during the hearing of this case that it was learned that young Hotz was killed. An old man, 69 years old, and a cripple, interrupted the hearing when he asked the com missioner if he could say a few words. On belnz arranted the privilege with tears On his cheeks he said, 'It was my boy that'was killed in that ilitch. He was J8 years old; had just finished school and he was a eood boy. I never knew nothing about this law. Then he hobbled away and soon returned with his wife. They listened to the hearing of the case before the com missioner until it was concluded. "The iniured man. William F. Skiles, lost the compensation he was entitled to under the law and. also his doctor bills, because He did not know of the existence of the com- nensation law. Mr. and Mrs. Hotz not only lost their son, but also $12 each week for $J5U weeks, togetner with a funeral benefit of $100, or a total of $4,300. Must Make Claim. "It was the most distressing case that has come before the compensa tion commissioner. The srreat draw back to the law is the ignorance of the workers as to the existence of the law. "The law nrovidea that . no cro eeedings for compensation shall be maintained unless claim for com pensation shall have been made upon me employer wunin six months after the accident In this case the accident haooened Seo- pened September 26, 1918, and Mr. Hotz did not learn of the Jaw until November 7, 1919 " Socialists in Germany Seek Change .of Front Paris.
