S.W. Parkway. 26t 12/09
AUSTIN (AP) — The role law
yers play in settling workers’ com
pensation claims should be curtailed
and benefits paid to injured workers
should be improved, according to
recommendations by the staff of a
special legislative committee.
Rep. Richard Smith, co-chairman
of the Joint Select Committee on
Workers’ Compensation Insurance,
said he expects the panel to vote on
the staff report’s 55 proposed rec
ommendations at a meeting Friday.
Smith, R-Bryan, said he and co-
chairman Sen. Bob Glasgow, D-Ste-
phenville, agreed to seek a vote on
the staff recommendations as a
package rather than a vote on each
separate proposal.
Large increases in workers’ com
pensation insurance rates during the
past several years and complaints
that Texas workers aren’t compen
sated as well as those in other states
led to creation of the study commit
tee.
Its report will go to the Legis
lature in January and is expected to
be one of the key issues to be han
dled by lawmakers in the 1989 ses
sion.
The committee’s staff and consul
tants, in a 27-page draft report sub
mitted for committee action, put to
gether a number of reforms they
said were designed to restore worker
and employer confidence in the sys
tem, improve benefits and reduce
the need for lawyers.
Among the proposals:
• Establish the state Industrial
Accident Board as the principal arbi
ter of disputes and claims from in
jured workers. Most such disputes
are resolved by the board’s staff, but
an unsatisfied worker can still go to
district court with a trial in which the
board’s findings are irrelevant. The
report says any appeals to courts
should instead be based on the re
cord developed at the accident
board.
• Changing the basis for calculat
ing benefits to more closely reflect
how much money an injured worker
has lost in wages.
• Boost the maximum weekly
benefit to the full state average
weekly wage, which now is about
$416. The current system pays just
over half the average wage of $238.
The following incidents were
reported to the University Police
Department from Nov. 28
through Monday:

• A man reported that some
one stole a solid silver letter
opener and a pocket alarm from
his desk in Blocker Building.

Bryan man pushes for legislation
to make English official language
BRYAN (AP) — Lou Zaeske, the
only child of bilingual parents, says
he will not rest until his native state
of Texas recognizes English as its of
ficial language.
His crusade, by his reckoning, be
gan in 1976, the year of the U.S. Bi
centennial, when he went to his
Democrat precinct to vote and saw
Spanish and English on the ballot
for the first time.
n years later, after being rebuffed
by Democratic and Republican lead
ers, Zaeske stood in front of the old
and the
Carnegie Library building here and
announced the formation of the
American Ethnic Coalition as a non
partisan, non-profit organization.
“To be able to properly partake in
the American dream, one must be
proficient in English,” the founder-
chairman of the American Ethnic
Coalition said.
The coalition is separate from
U.S. English in California and Wash
ington and English First of Spring-
field, Va., but all promote English as
the official language of the United
States, Zaeske said.
“The official English issue is but
one tentacle of the octopus that is
causing us (the coalition) problems,”
Zaeske, 46, said in a recent inter
view. “The other tentacles are the
move for same-day, onsite voter reg
istration; the move to count all for
eigners in the state in the 1990 cen
sus for reapportioning;
immigration problem.”
Zaeske estimates that the coalition
has 40,000 members nationwide,
with 30,000 in Texas. Since dues are
not required, the membership is cal
culated by adding the names of
those who signed petitions.
For success stories, Zaeske points
to November votes in Florida, Colo
rado and Arizona to make English
their official state language. Of the
16 states that have taken such action,
11 have done so since 1986, and the
issue has never been defeated on a
statewide ballot, he said.
“Ours is a movement whose impe
tus is increasing. ”
Zaeske’s parents, Louis Sr., who
speaks fluent German, and Agnes,
fluent in Czech, raised their son in
Wilson County in what Zaeske re
calls was a “melting pot” of small
town U.S. A.
At the cotton gin where he
worked in Floresville, Zaeske heard
Tex-Mex, Slavic and European ac
cents, but what impressed him, he
says, was that everybody was endeav
oring to speak English.
At Texas A&M, Zaeske was one of
nine regulars in the Young Republi
can organization, which once swelled
to 13 to hear GOP congressional
candidate George Bush address the
group.
Among his college memories are
two foreigners — Pakistanis, lie:
lieves — who taught labs in bn
English that he said was almost
possible to understand.
Zaeske graduated from
1966 with a degree in media
engineering, hut Zaeske Eij
neering Co. is closed now be®
his drive for official English
much time and energy.
With the Republican Party
tually non-existent in Bryan ya
ago, Zaeske became a Democrat
ter the 1976 Democratic county
vent ion refused to consider bis
cial English resolution, Zaf
switched to the Republican Party
After three unsuccessful attei
to have the GOP add an Englisl
olution to their party platfei (/)
Zaeske decided he would goitab
and founded the American Eli H
Coalition.
Some of his critics dismiss Z? (/)
as a bigot and racist, a zealot of:
worst sort.
“1 would say that I am highly3
tivated and I am highly concert
—concerned that our country is
lowing itself to divide and fad®
lize along ethnic or language b
which ultimately is going to
undoing of our country,’’ ZaS
said.
