He contracted blood poisoning in the hands “due to the irritation caused by handling salt in his occupation of handling fish,” as the doctors diagnosed it.

T was no sudden accident which disabled Claude L. Young at the fish cannery at Anacortes. The machinery ran as smoothly as ever on February 24, 1913, when he was laid up. No cogs had slipped in the wheels. No screws were loose. No belts were of the work he had to perform. And the present industrial insurance act is not broad enough in its scope to compensate workmen for occupational diseases as well as accidental injuries. Yet there is no good reason why it should not be so broadened. The principle of workmen's compensation is that the industry should bear, so distinction should be made between sudden acci- dents and injuries to human labor caused by occu- pational diseases. Claude L. Young gave up, in part, the use of his hands to the fish industry, just the same as though his hands had been caught in a piece of machinery and injured. His family misses But Young nevertheless was a victim of the fish industry. Not a sudden victim, to be sure, as when a piece of machinery breaks and injures a work. man, but his health and his earning power were his earning power just as much in one case as in the other. The legislature may well consider the case of Claude L. Young at its next session. far as possible, the cost of the wreckage it imposes upon human machinery as well as upon mechan- ical machinery. There is no good reason why any under the state industrial insurance act. But his disability was due to an occupational disease.
