His duties were to drive a truck, haul cinders, cement and other building materials and to assist with general maintenance work. On or about July 25th, 1930, while so employed claimant attempted to crank a large highway truck when the motor backfired causing the crank to strike claimant \u2019s arm breaking his wrist and throwing him to the ground. The bones of his right forearm wTere fractured and dislocated. The evidence shows that claimant was temporarily disabled for a period of approximately fourteen weeks and that he has suffered permanent disability of approximately 20 per cent.\nThe Attorney General comes and defends and recommends that if this court finds the claimant operated under the Workmen\u2019s Compensation Act that claimant be allowed a compensation of $642.30.\nTherefore it is recommended that claimant be awarded the sum of $642.30.",
