Opinion
March, 1931.
Appeal from State Industrial Board.
While there is a statement in the report of the doctor that there was loss of grasping power, that report not being verified is not competent proof. However, there appears competent proof of injury to the fingers sufficient to justify the award for a proportionate loss of use of the hand. ( Matter of Petrie, 215 N.Y. 335.) All concur. Award affirmed, with costs to the State Industrial Board.
