°ULL1NG TEETH <1N SENATE BILL SENATE CHANGE WORKMEN'S AID MEASURE IN SEVERAL INSTANCES—FARMERS OPPOSE CORPORATIONS, TOO. Trenton, March J. — The teeth in the Colgate bill establishing a workmen's compensation aid bureau in the State Labor Department will be drawn by a series of amendments, if enacted, which were presented in the Senate yesterday after a 'debate which reflected the opposition of the farmers as well as the corporations to the measure. Senator Lewis T. Stevens, of Cape May, aided other Senatbre and President WilT. Read, of Camden, was chiefly in changing the bill. One of the amendments would remove occupational diseases from the compensatory features of the bill and another would divorce a proposed cooperation between the courts and inworkmen A third amendment would cut out two $3,600 positions. The amendments by Mr Stevens, Senator Edge -declared, struck at the very foundation of the entire scheme of workmen's compensation What is to be "a joker" would permit an employer and employee to enter into an agreement of settlement without regards to the court? or compensation bureau, Mr. Edge said. He deplored such a move, stating that the workmen's compensation law would be entirely destroy and years of conscientious effort nullified. This caused a little stir in the Senate and Senator Hutchinson said he would like to give more study to the effect of the Stevens amendments. He did not tbihk the Senators should consider them blindly. He thought the Senate .was not sufficiently acquainted with the subject to : pass flnsHy upon the proposed changes . Mr. Stevens said he could see no harm in employer!, and employes settling compensation claims between themselves. Senator Colgate replied that neither employer nor employee is familiar enough with the law's requirements to make settlements. Mr. Stevens did not at the time press any further amendments, a number of which he had prepared. He declined, however, at Senator Hennesqy'e suggestion to withdraw all his amendments. These clianges, however, it developed, affected sections that had already been "stricken from the bill by the Stevens amendment. Mr. Stevens wanted to strike out ' provisions for the two $3,600 jobs and suggested that the State Commissioner of Labor do all the work required. Mr. Colgate objected to the amendments o:i the ground that they would rob the bill of the very meat. He was ably supported in this contention by Mr. Edge, who is a member of the Employers' LiaCommission. Mr. Stevens characterized the bill as an indication that Bomebody was looking for jobs. He was for giving tly; Inbor Department all the authority necessary to carry out the pro/isions of the proposed act. Mr. Edge maintained tl-at, under the Stevens plan, the work could not be properly carried cut Air. Colgate said the bill was prepared b ya commission entirely familiar with conditions which demand the He said the 6tevens amendment?, would break down the principle of the bill. Mr. Edge amplified his remarks, declaring that althougn the May Senator was aiming at an elimination of expense, he was authorising the State Commissioner of Labor to employ as m^ny deputies as be wanted, and at afiy salary desired. Confusion among the Senators grew ss Mr. Colgate/ sought to press his j amendments. Tfie president hesitated shout putting a motion to reconsider the Stevens amendments, which had earned, until he had inquired, "Do the know what they are about to vote on?" i Majority Loader Rathburn objected to further- action on the Stevens amendments.1 Speaking first on that creating additional jobs, Mr. Hennesey, agreeing with Mr. Edge, said the bill as amended, would give the State Labor authority to aeate as m*nT j°b« jas he wanted. Mr. Rathbun argued that the bill as originally drawn wodd^fetopn this same power plus the specified in the bill Senator Ackley pressed for the reeon(Ckm tinned oa fourth page.) r
