If the provisions of this chapter relative to compensation for injuries to or death of workmen are repealed, and the injury or death has not previously been compensated by lump payment or completed monthly payments, the period intervening between the injury or death and the repeal shall not be computed as a part of the time limited by law for the commencement of any action relating to such injury or death. The action shall be commenced within one year after the repeal and any amount paid as compensation shall be deducted from the right of recovery.
