INSURANCE CO. SEEKS TO RECOVER Two years a?o ia?tav Boeninsr was killed while employed on construction work at the new piant of the Sinclair Oil Refining company at East Chicago. He was in the employ of the Ionard Construction company, which carried insurance on his life in the Zurich General Accident and I.iability Insu ranee company. The death claim -went through the channels of the state industrial board, whs appealed and affirmed. The widow i'arah IfoeninR. was awarded $4,263 in weekly payments. The insurance company has now filed suit in the Hammond Superior court to recover the amount of the award from the Carrao Electric company, which is alleged to have been responsible for Roenins'. death. The electric company was a sub contractor r-njsaged in doinn the electrical installation at the Sinclair plant. Kooning, employed as a hoisting: engineer, had cone to the transformer : tation to report that the power was off in his part e-f the plant. The man in oharg-e of the station told him to remain there and allow no oro to enter until he had returned from an investigation trip. Boeniir remained on Suard and while performing this work came in contact with a high voltage wire, which it is saui had been allowed to remain within four feet of the ground, causing his instant death. The insurance company charges negli. gence on the part of the electric company.
SMS HOMED PA! 5D PERCENTPROFIT NOW WASHINGTON . May 26. The women of the country contribute about 5') per cent pr'-f.t on nearly all the dres goods they buy. -v. Jett Lauok, consulting economist. of the railroad unions declared today. Ijuck cited figures on such common dress goods' as biue denim, unbleached ct-tton, georgette crepe, wash satin, printed percales and fancy woolen suitings. "In the majority of dress goods of all kinds." said Iauck. "profits are absorbing approximately half the price paid by the consumer. Here are the figures which Lauck
t gave on the various cloths:
Unbleached, cotton The basis for most cotton fabrics retail price increased over - cents between 1310 and ll'l? or 10 times the increase of all labor costs. Printed percale The increase In profit margins was five times the increased cost i-f labor, and the retail price advanced in lHl'j by 13 cents over 1?10. Kiue denim Approximately half th--" price paid by the consumer went to the profiteer in 1919. The entire cost of producing this cloth was 25 1-8 cents a yard, while it retailed for 50 cents. The mill owners' profits increased tj'V) per cent. Wash satin and georgette crepe The mill cr-st of these fabrics is slightIv over $l.Tn a yard: the retail prices vary from $3.50 t' $5 a yard. "In retailing their goods." said Mr. Tliuek. 'the department and dry goods stores usiiiil'v add 60 fr .ert to th-? price at which they buy frS the mill. On fancy pilks they add 100 per cent or more." Woolen nrc-fits increased more than
' ".-,0 per cent from 1910 to 1919.
