## Opinion text

Mr. Justice Thompson, dissenting:
In my opinion there is no evidence in the record showing that the disability has increased since the original award was made, and therefore the commission had no jurisdiction to review the previous award. The evidence shows that the disability now existing is a continuation of the disability existing at the time the original award was made.
