ADVOCATES STATE
INSURANCI
Radical remedies to solve the prod
loins of the man permanetly cripple'
in industry are advocated 'by Carl Ho
kstadt in an article in the Decombe
number of the monthly labor Review
issued by tho Bureau of Labor Statis
tic.3 of the United States Departimen
of 'Labor. His proposals are:
; The compensation scale of benefit
j to be materially increased to approx
imate the loss of earning capacity.
| Adequat© medical and surgical trea
I ment to be furnished by the State,
i Vocational schools closely correlate!
to rehabiliatio.n hospitals.
Reemployment at suitable jobs am
at fair wages.
Establishment of exclusive State ii
surance fund or an employer’s mutua
association to be substituted for con
petitive casualty companies.
Establishment of a central authofit)
preferably of an industrial aeciden
commission, to administer and super
vise the entire rehablllation problem
Interesting figures brought out b;
several investigations show that ii
Massachusetts the average period o
total disability for the loss of a hanc
or arm is 13.4 months, while, in Call
fornia it is 12.7 months. For the losi
of a foot or a leg in Massachusetti
24.8 months are lost, while 13.4 month:
are lost in California for the sanii
I accident.
1 “Two important facts stand out,’
j writes Mr. Hookstadt. “One is tin
; greater severity of the foot and lei
j injuries over those of the hand am
arm and the other the unexpecte<
Ions’ disability in all cases.. One-thin
| of the workers losing a hand or a foo
! qre disabled for 18 months or over
The average length of total disobillt;
for the lesser'injuries is: Loss cf eyi
' 4-8 months; one thumb, 2.4 months
i one finger. 2.1 months; two or mor,
j fingers, 3.8 months.”
j The seriousness of the disability ip
! creases with the age of the workmai
the investigations conducted by Mr
Hookstadt prove.
"About one-third of tlie persons sus
taining a major injury return to thi
same employer,” writes Mr. Hookstad
“and about one-fourth reenter the tin
same occupation, while in the case o
minor injuries three-fourths return t(
♦he same employer and two-thirds fo
♦ow the same occupation.
Inability to speak English in manj
oases lessens the opportunity for re
employment although it Is not possi
ble to show this statistically because
of incomplete data. In a number o'
eases reported by the industrial ac
eident board- and by insurance com
nanies in Massachusetts, this factoi
had a determining influence. Ability
♦o understand and speak English may
not he of vital importance to a machi
ne tender in a cotton mill, but it is
essential to watchmen, messengers,
and elevator operators, and it is oceu
nations of this character that most
of lie Injured employes fill after their
injury.
Summarizing the above conclusions
declares Mr, Hookstadt, it may be
said that reemployabilitv of crippled
industrial workers varies direatly
with degree of occupation skill and
ability to speak English, and inversly
with the severity of the injury and
♦he age of the employe.
The period of total disability re
sulting from the injury is unnecessa
rilylpng. Only about- one-third of the
seriously crippled workers return to
‘! the same employer, and relatively
■! few reenter the-, same occupation. The
j compensation benefits pro inadequate
"I and ..practically no restraining,-has
* ibeen done. A . critical analysis of the
? several contributory causes -shows
r - that nearly ail of these, causes-have
’I their origin, and are closely related
' to the absence of a central and.res
t ponsible supervising authority. "vFlie
I welfare of our crippled men has been
5 nobody’s 'business. Closely connected
", with this irresponsibility is the lack
j or opportunity. The. very fact that men
are crippled has closed the • door, of
j opportunity against them. They fire
‘, not. given a chance to show -their
j worth or ability.
