carele..,.ss nf Amsrieans.


 Our national careIsssnsss is the ez- plansaon given b. the Literary Digest for our dreadful record of accidents In reviewing an article bg C F. Walsh upon accident preventing devices ta America (Cassler's dagaLIuet. l. $ showa thaf ue stand first in She world in the accident record. ant that Ire rule seems 10 apply ts all trades and professions The proportion Of miners killed. for instance. ls neariy ireoie that in France. and about double mat fn other European countries For every five men killed by accident in the United States there are only three in all nations Of Europe combined. Our railroads alone XII 21 people every day. The remarkable fact is brought out that we lead the world n tAe in- ventIoa of accident preventing devices. and adopt fewer of them than any otF- eT country Indeed. many O. the n yent.ons travel to Europe for recogat ton and adoption l. is claimed that our workmen RIlI not use inc safety devices. as something childish. but pre- fer to run the risk like men. This is true. but t i5 also true Of European sorkmen Indeed. the old story of the safety lamp in mines shows that accus- toned dangers are forgotten or mir fmizel Permanent museums O. Sc curity.' such d that in Amsterdam. Walsh says. should be established. h these there arc on constant exhibition every conceivable device for lessening risk to life from accident They will educate the public, and the workmen will gradually be brought to the point of demanding protection. l. Is sas= gested that employers be held 70 stricter accountability and be com pelled by law to safeguard empioyes, a. ia Europe. but 1t can be replied that American woFkmeu will not submit 70 restrictions easily imposed in Europe They are free agents. with right to  kill themselves. If they please, or in jare others No man is his brothers keeper here. and this Is probably the real basis for our national disregard of the rights Of others IL is more than eareiessness. The surgeons of the country see aiI these accidents. and carefully investigate each case. T. seems reasonable To suggest that they should De able 10 see the causes and suggest remedies. Knowing more of the matter than any other body of men. can they not take some concerted ac- ton which would make life safer n America? American disregard for hu- man life is the fact which seems 10 i'm press European visitors more pro foundly than any other characteristic. Since We claim 10 be the most demo cratic people on earth, 1t seems re mafkable that with more power in our hands than any .ther nation, we are unable 10 safeguard ourselves 10 any tling like the extent accomplished b. moaafchic nation5 of the enlightened rariz of Europe

There are men who love dollars sim. ply for the sound of their jin9le and others who seek riches simply for the power they bring; but the great mass of those who are trying to roll up for tune are in pursuit Of the social priv. ileges that wealth affords. If t were plain 10 all these last. says an ex. change. that stolen money was a bar. nos heist; that 10 be thief was 10 fQfeit ones chances to enter the GOV. eted circles. then the real remedy for the rot that has spread so wide would he at hand.

We'll, sure enough, the director called.
but when he got up to address us, he said:
