From a Republican publication comes a barrage accusing Mayor Rothwell of taking credit for the $2 a day employer liability law. It notes he opposed the measure, councils’ Republicans voted against it, and only Democratic pressure forced its enforcement. The piece contends labor supporters see the mayor as opportunistic and praises the law's aim to modernize workers compensation through a state funded system administered by the state board of awards in Columbus.
The article outlines compensation rules for injured workers including wage limits, duration of benefits, and caps. It specifies two thirds of average weekly wage until death with caps, funeral and medical expenses, and limits for cases with wholly or partly dependent survivors, within six years from injury.
A local political clash centers on the fire department expansion under Thad Shrauh's administration. Two modern five-station plans, one in Lindenwald and one in East Hamilton, were approved by Mayor Rothwell but later altered to keep old horse-drawn equipment. Citizens blame the mayor for reversing the plans and spoiling the new stations with outdated apparatus.
