Supreme Court backs accident board in Idaho case
The Idaho Supreme Court upheld the Industrial Accident Board ruling in S. E. McNeil versus Vanbandie Lumber and Aetna. The decision affirms total disability benefits for McNeil who lost his right eye in an accident while employed by the lumber firm, despite preexisting impairment. The court rejected narrow readings of accident and supported weekly payments of about 12 dollars plus life allowances, finding the injury met the standard of accident and that McNeil remained able to perform work at the time.

Precedent Setting Industrial Case Reaches Idaho Courts
The Idaho Supreme Court declares that findings of the industrial accident board are conclusive on appeal if supported by competent evidence and that appeals in industrial accident cases are normally well taken. The ruling covers total disability claims by McNeil after a retina detachment suffered while employed by a lumber company dating to about January 1920.
