Scope and Contents

Federal bills for workmen's compensation for longshoremen and for workers in the District of Columbia continued to receive most of the Association's attention, along with efforts to secure the adoption by individual states of an exclusive state fund for workmen's compensation. The Association was opposed to discrimination against the non-resident dependents of aliens in allotting compensation. Many advocates of the Kenyon Bill for long-range planning of public works sought Andrews' support. The blanket equality amendment of the National Women's Party and coal mine safety also received attention in the early months of 1922.
