IGNORANCE OF
COMPENSATION
LAW STATE WIDE
Pitiful Case of Old People Los
ing Son and $4,300
Told by Com
missioner.
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 "
