Eden. Joseph A. Johnson, 26, hand-putter.
On 26th September, 1922, Johnson slipped whilst pushing a full tub of coal and injured the muscles of his back. He was paid full compensation until January, 1923, when he started light work as a shifter. He worked at the light work until April, when he had to give up, and compensation was refused on a report by Dr. Willan, who certified that Johnson was not suffering from the accident. Johnson alleged he is still disabled and asked for compensation to be restored.
Claim disallowed.
