Defendants Western Asbestos Company and State Compensation Insurance Fund petition for reconsideration of my Findings and Award filed July SO, 1965, wherein it was found that applicant sustained Injury, consisting of ashestosio, arising out of and in the course of employment by several employers, (including Western Asbestos Company) over a period of several years. In the first place, it appears that the petition Is untimely having been received and filed by this Commission on August 12, 1965 twenty-three days after the date of service of the Findings and Award. (Labor Code, sections 5900(a), 5903i Code of Civ, Pros,, section 1013). Considering the petition on its merits, also, I believe that It should be denied. Petitioners contend (l) that all of applicant's employment by Western Asbestos Company was within Admiralty jurisdiction and therefore outside the jurisdiction of this commission, and (2) that applicant*3 exposure in his work for Western Asbestos Company was to cork, not asbestos. Applicant testified that in his work for Western Asbestos Company he spent about two years working on the construction of new Ships and spent the remainder of the time in working on the repair of existing ships. As to the latter, the parties apparently agree BASE WO. 65 SRO 4243 -2- EEL FURIA that this was within Admiralty Jurisdiction rather than within the jurisdiction of this Commission, The parties disagree# however, as to whether applicant's work on the construction of new ships was exclusively within Admiralty Jurisdiction. Petitioners contend that the recent case of Calbeek v. Travelers ins, Co., 370W.S, 114 (27 Cal.CompCases 204) reverses earlier decisions and establishes that this Commission has. no Jurisdiction In such natters. I must disagree. The Calbeek decisin does not expressly overrule such earlier decisions as Baskin v. Industrial Acc. Con., 333 U.S. 354 (14 Cal.Comp.Cases 139) and 340 U.S. 336 (16 Cal.poop,cases 15), nor does it expressly repudiate the "twilight zone"' doctrine. Subse quent decisions of lower Federal courts have held that the "twilight zone" still exists. (Holland v. Harrison Bros., 306 Fed. 2d 369; Bathern v. Superior Oil Company, 207 Fed, Suppl. 591,553) Larson in his work on Workmen's Compensation shares this view, In my opinion, in the absence of clear Judicial authority repudiating the "twilight zone" and the concurrent Jurisdiction of Admiralty and a state's workmen's compensation act, this Commission should assume jurisdiction pursuant to such earlier decisions as Babkin v. Industrial Acc. Con., supra, at lea3t in a.case such as the instant one where the Federal Deputy commissioner has not already -assumed Jurisdiction, Petitioners' further argument that the evidence precludes a finding that applicant's work for Western Asbestos Company contri buted to his asbestosis, is also without merit. Applicant testified that in his work for Western Asbestos Company he handled the "same ^materials" (i.e., asbestos powders and blocks) as well as handling considerable cork. Later he testified that in his work on new ships for Western Asbestos Company he handled "mostly" cork. This evidence establishes that applicant had sane exposure to; asbestos while work ing for Western Asbestos company. The extent to which this exposure, CASE NO. 65 SRO **2^3 "3* EEL FURIA a contrasted with his exposure to cork duet, contributed to hia aabeatosis la a matter which should be litigated in a supplemental apportionment proceeding.
