abstract="During 1927 social legislation was enacted embracing a number of subjects. In the field of workmen's compensation, the federal longshoremens's accident compensation law was the outstanding achievement, and many existing laws were improved in respect to compensation benefits, waiting period, medical care, and administration. Attention is also called to the provisions for extra compensation to illegally employed minors, second injuries, and maintenance of employees undergoing industrial rehabilitation. Several additional states have entered into the federal state co-operative arrangement for vocational rehabilitation and maternity protection. Other legislative activities include advance steps in respect to working hours, employment agencies, and legal limitations of the employment of women and minors.<p />",
