L. Watkins, field secretary of the} I State w.c The present state law is practical- state enactment of the federas ute and is based on the Volstead document. Attorneys have claimed it unconstitutional in that it lists 1 except those as| cribed by..and under statute,” makes it illegal “sell or possess the same except{ nitted by federal statute; and efers to the U. S. would eliminate ragraphs making the state law application wholly independent of federal regulations The law also provides for the dis- position of automobiles or other ve- 1 in the transportation of ed in raids, ete., only ” Nor can liquor} d except by court | tion.” It is con- tended ¢ eally prevents | disposing cars except | through a lengthy process.

The state government,.;he said, was dividrd into three bypuches, the jlegislative, jud.cial xecutive. The railroad commissidt, created by the constitution, was. placed in the executive or administrative branch, 7 he‘ said. He contended the legisla- q ture had delegated to the board powers which Are its leg’slative functions and also certain ‘judicial | 4 powers, in the fixing of valuations, q determination of rates and making of varioug rules affecting ut'lities. Can’t Delegate Functions While the legislature has power to delegate functions to certain leg- islative agencies, a stricter line is drawn in the case of a co-ord’nate branch of the government, Mr, Cox said, pointing to the Workmen’s Compensation Law. The legislature he said, has power to delegate gret- er powers to its own agency than to other agencies. , “But instead of the legislature se- lecting an agency of its own, stch as the Workmen’s Compensation Bu- reau, ‘t has attempted.to take a con- stitutional agency which is coordi- ss QUIT TOBACCO So Easy to Drop Cigarette, Cigar, or Chewing Habit No-To-Bac has helped thousands tu break the\costly, nerve-shattered to vacco habit.

The Court held that forfeiture provisions in all insurance policies’ will be con- strued, if possible, ‘so as to afford insurance coverage and that, this general rule applied to obligations created under the Workmeris Com- pensation act. Judge Christianson in writing the opinion said that there was nothing to indicate that the em- ployer had any intention to avote payment, and “the employer can not, whatever his desire may be, avoid liability for premfum.” In denying a-motion for rehearing in the case of Altman vs. Workmen's Compensation Bureau the court stat- ed that in its previous decision it had not determined the question whether a claimant who appealed to the districh court from a dismissa of his claim Py the bureau had a right to a jury trial or whether the act must be tried by the court with out jury. The court further stated that decisions of the district court as to the amount of. compensation in such appeals. from the bureaus dis missal are “subjecd to the supervi ory powers and duties of the commi sioners as contained in the Work- mens Compensation Act..
