UNION WITH DOMINION
Is One of the Things New Foundiand
Expects from Reciprocity.

Ottawa, Ont, Sept. f0,-Word mas
reached Ottawa that if Canada ratifies
reciprocity movement will be launch
ed in New Foundland for union with
the Dominion. New Foundland has
several times. without success, Sought
better trading terms with the United
States. The proposed reciprocity
agreement, which would give free entry
of fish to the United States, has arous-
cd great interest in New Foundland
and n desire TO share with Canada IN
any advantages of the great American
market. 1t is asserted by the party
which is forming in New Foundland
that this can be done easier through
union with Canada than by direct ne
gotiations with the United States.
A favorable vote on reciprocity, by
Canada, it is understood on good au-
thority is likely to be shortly followed
by the arrival of commissioners from
New Feundland to discuss terms OF
union.

THE LEAD SHELTERS.
An Industry of ltinerant Workers
Who Labor Under Unhealthy Con-
dtons.

Why do some of the lead smelling
plants lose a quarter and sometimes
almost half of their working force
each pay day? The foremen often
say it is because the men employed
are Negroes or SIovaks or Pollocks or
Greeks or Italians and by nature un-
steady and given to drink. But the
men and physicians declare it is due
to the dangerous character of the
work.
There is a white lead factory with
a payroll of only eighty which is OBJ
liged to lire 400 men yearly, while
larger one employing lab workers
takes on but eighty new hands In
twelve months. What explains this
difference? The factories are near
each other and both employ Negroes
The claims of the men are borne out
fer the only difference is that in the
one they are taken care of and III the
other they are not. One red lead fac
tory discharges automatically all Ia
borers at the end of three months
employment in order to prevent the
more serious forms of plumbism. THIS
very shifting increases lead-poisoning
for the casual laborer is ignorant of
the precautions necessary.
Cases of lead poisoning have been
found in some thirty different indus
tries, though they are more common
in lead smelling, the making of white
lead. litho-transfer work, dry color
work, and the making of storage bat
teries. The painting trade yields the
largest number of victims. This is
because it is numerically the largest
of the lead trades for there is not as
much acute lead poisoning in proper
ton to the workers as in the other
industries mentioned. Painters tell us
that 2 man rarely develops symptoms
unde. five years exposure while one
worker on storage batteries was vio-r
