ART. 101] STATE ACCIDENT FUND. . order to
create a fund sufficiently large to guarantee a workmen's compensation
fund from year to year to also re-classify from time to time the indus-
tries or occupations in order that there may be a flexible adjustment
of the rates as the hazard fluctuates, and to use all means in their
power through the rate adjustment to lessen the opportunities for inju-
ries to the workmen. The classification so determined and the rates
of premium established shall be applicable for such year; and based
on each one hundred dollars of the gross annual payroll of each em-
ployer in any class; provided, also, that for the purpose of this article
the pay of the employe partly within and partly without the State
shall be deemed to be such proportion of the total pay of such employe
as his service within the State bears to his services outside the State.

Any employer who shall with fraudulent intent misrepresent to the
Commission the amount of payroll upon which the premium under this
article is based shall be liable to the Commission in ten times the
amount of the difference in the premium paid and the amount the
employer should have paid. The liability to the Commission under
this provision shall be enforced in a civil action in the name of the
Commission. All sums collected under this Section shall be paid into
the State Accident Fund.

1914, ch. 800, sec. 22.
