Labor is for it be cause it means that an injured em ployee will be cared for without a tedi ous and expensive law suit; industry is for it because there will be no runi- oub damage s uits every time a man is hurt. * A number of people argue that this Act, once signed by the Governor, will attract new industries to South Caro lina. The bill as passed by the General Assembly is not exactly what any body wants, but it is a compromise.
