Robert Smith colored while serving a five year term for burglary was sent from San Quentin to a prison labor camp. An explosion during work blinded him and he sought compensation. The Industrial Accident Commission found him an employee of the state highway commission and awarded $79.52 for permanent disability and $7.76 weekly for 138 weeks, with a $4.79 weekly life pension after. The California Supreme Court upheld the award, ruling convicts on state highways are entitled to compensation under the workmen's compensation act.
