Excerpt from The Practical Results of Workingmen's Insurance in Germany Much has been written in praise of Germany's system of compensating workmen for accidents. The idea has generally been given that the working of the system was well nigh faultless, and that no evils had crept in to offset ever so slightly the benefits. But, while wishing that Germany had indeed solved the problem, many have had a suspicion that larger claims were made for the system than were warranted. That this suspicion was well-founded is now proven by the publication by Dr. Ferdinand Friedensburg, who recently retired from the post of President of the Senate of the Imperial Insurance Office, after a service of over twenty years, of an article bearing the title Die Praxis der deutschen Arbeiterversicherung ("The Practical Results of Workingmen's Insurance in Germany"), and who criticizes the system severely in certain respects. References to this article from The New York Times and The Spectator (London) are presented herewith. In offering these, it is not intended to take a position antagonistic to workmen's compensation for accidents. We are heartily in favor of workmen's compensation. All that we mean to do is to point out the necessity of care, in adopting a system of workmen's compensation, that the workmen are not pauperized or exposed to the temptation to make fraudulent claims.

Excerpt from The German System, of Workmen's Insurance in Practice The Imperial Message of November 17, 1881, so to speak the "Magna Charta" of the "right to labour," and the programme for the realization of this right, together with the material of the various laws and the discussions of the Reichstag, does not allow of the slightest doubt as to the bases on which the system of working-men's insurance has to be erected. "By collecting the real forces of the life of the people in the form of co-operative associations and State protection," it was intended to provide "State provision" for workingmen who either by illness, accident, invalidity or old age had become incapable of gaining their livelihood, for their families and their relicts. Properly speaking no new rights were created thereby. There had always been existing corporations for the furtherance of the best of their members, which enjoyed - like all other similar corporations - the protection of the State (and sometimes perhaps more of it than they cared for) in the form of State supervision. The interpretation of "provision," even the word itself used in this sense (Fursorge) was not new. Already the Prussian "Common Law " (Allgemeine Landrecht) spoke of a special "providential care" of the State, which was due to such persons who were not able to provide for themselves. The "Servants' Regulations," 1810 (Gesindeordnung), impose upon employers under certain circumstances the duty of "providential care" of servants who have fallen ill. Similar expressions are to be found in the poor-laws of 1842 and 1855, and in the regulations of pensions for civil servants, 1842. The latter, almost word for word the same as the "Message" of 1881, recognizes that it is a special duty of the State to regulate the position of civil servants and to secure their future. The Law referring to insurance in case of sickness prefers the expression "assistance" (Unterstutzung) which is equally to be found in the "Common Law " (Allgemeine Landrecht). The same term is used by the Imperial Law of June 6, 1870, with reference to the domicile of the persons who have to receive support, and in the Imperial Trade Regulations (Reichsgewerbeordnung). It is noteworthy that the Marine Accident Insurance Law uses the term "provision" to indicate the support to which sailors are entitled according to the Commercial Law Code (Handelsgesetzbueh) and the Marine Law Code (Seemannsordnung). The only new aspect of the right thus created was to be found in the collection and welding together of the various ideas and their component parts.

A timeless classic of economic theory that remains fascinating and pertinent today, this is Frank Knight's famous explanation of why perfect competition cannot eliminate profits, the important differences between "risk" and "uncertainty," and the vital role of the entrepreneur in profitmaking. Based on Knight's PhD dissertation, this 1921 work, balancing theory with fact to come to stunning insights, is a distinct pleasure to read. FRANK H. KNIGHT (1885-1972) is considered by some the greatest American scholar of economics of the 20th century. An economics professor at the University of Chicago from 1927 until 1955, he was one of the founders of the Chicago school of economics, which influenced Milton Friedman and George Stigler.
