Description

The decision of the Industrial Accident Commission, underlying the decree of the Superior Court to which the present appeal relates, serves to emphasize the proper tendency of those charged with the duty of administering The Workmen's Compensation Act, R. S. 1944, Chap. 26, as amended, referred to hereafter as the ""Act,"" to carry the protection of employees coming within its provisions to the permissible limits of the controls established by it. Those controls, construed by this court in so many decisions that there is no point in citing any of them, restricted compensation under the Act, prior to the enactment of P. L. 1945, Chap. 338 (The Occupational Disease Law), to accidental injuries ""arising out of and in the course of"" employment. R. S. 1944, Chap. 26, Sec. 8. The Occupational Disease Law does not change the controls applicable to accidental injuries. The tendency noted is in accord with the Act. Liberal construction, to carry out its general purpose, is its express mandate. R. S. 1944, Chap. 26, Sec. 30. That purpose, as declared in Harry Scott's Case, 117 Me. 436, 104 A. 794, 797, is: ""to transfer the burdens resulting from industrial accidents, * * * from the individual to the industry, and finally distribute it upon society as a whole * * *.""
