SEAMEN NOW
UNDER JONES
ACT, NOT AIB
An important decision by the
Ninth Court of Appeals affecting
seamen on vessels in Alaska wat
er.- has been received here by Terri
torial Commission of Labor Henry
A. Benson.
Judge George W. Folia's opinion
in the case of the Alaska Industrial
Board and Alfred J. Peterson vs.
Air ka Packers Association, was up
held by the higher court.
Peterson, who claimed permanent
disability as a result of a back in
judy when he slipped and fell on
the deck of a monkey boat in Bris
tol bay fn 1947, was awarded $3,450
by the Industrial Board. The case
was taken to the district court
where Judge Folta ruled that Peter
sen was not subject to the Juris
diction of the Alaska Workman’s
Compensation Act, but was a sea
man subject to admiralty jurisdic
tion under the Jones Act.
Since 1927, employes on monkey

boats and tenders have looked to
the Alaska Workman’s Compensa
tion Act in case of injuries. The
Peterson case was the first in which
the authority had been challenged
and a specific decision given.
This has the effect of increasing
employer liability because coverage
now under the Workman’s compen
sation policy will not insure risk
under the Jones Act for maritime
injuries; removes seamen on all
boats in Alaska waters from the
jurisdiction of the Alaska Act;
places seamen under the Jones
Act which provides wages until end
of the voyage, care and maintenance
until cured, and damages; requires
the services of an attorney by the
injured person.
Robert Boochever represented the
Alaska Packers Henry, Roden repre
sented Peterson and Attorney Gen
eral J, Gerald Williams, the Alaska
Industrial Board.
